Any video of EV and the roots yet?

They’re a serious outfit and can play anything and with determination.
Would love to see them go at a pj tune
No diss on EV esp without seeing it but he’s probably the weakest element of it. They’re that good.

I just am not vibing with the SNL concert at all. Nostalgia overload; a room of celebrities playing for a room full of celebrities; some poor choices on attendees and programming. It all feels very self congratulatory, which I suppose Lorne has earned; but I don’t find it very entertaining. Also everyone looks either old or plastic.
What were your expectations? This was how these types of shows/concerts go. It's a nostalgia victory lap. SNL 40 was like that too. I'm sure Sunday's show will be similar.

It's like an All-Star/Hall of Fame game.

Wow. There’s no way the Ed from ‘92 or ‘94 would’ve come out there dressed like a pirate.
