For example, I recently found a legit Twitter feed for ?uestlove from The Roots . Obviously this is not the only big news for the funk hop band The Roots. They have taken over as Jimmy Fallon's backing band on his new late-night spot, and have a(n almost) weekly gig at the Highline Ballroom in New York City.

Odds N Ends Vol. 1
Summer vacations/ distractions have brought things around here to a near-standstill, but in an effort to play a bit of catch-up, check out some of these noteworthy tunes below pulled from the ever-packed in-box and various other sites we've been digging lately from around the Inter-Webs: JDP featuring Chester French "She Loves Everybody (Part Deux)" This up-and-coming Chicago indie-hopper latches onto CF's most well-known track, the shoulda-been-bigger slut ode "She Loves Everybody" , using it to support his own adventure with a promiscous groupie who has foolishly mistaken him [...]

?uestlove Sets the World Record for Afro Picks in an Afro
Roots band leader ?uestlove decided to show off the power of the 'fro by attempting to set the world record for number of afro picks used.

Sonic Youth Make Eagle-Eyed Viewers Play A Guessing Game
Sonic Youth's performance of "No Way" on last night's Late Night With Jimmy Fallon was straight fire, with the band ripping through the track in such a way that made this observer think that she really, really needs to see them live again soon. In addition to the awesome performance, there's an Easter egg of sorts for those of you who want to watch the clip again and again: If you look closely, you'll notice that most of the camera angles are expressly designed to avoid getting Thurston Moore's shirt, which Late Night drummer/band Twitter-leader ?uestlove [...]

Folk Alliance 2009: Questlove connects with Bela Fleck and connects the dots between Folk Music and Hip-Hop.
As part of the 2009 International Folk Alliance Conference in Memphis, the Red Bull Music Academy put together a creativity workshop session featuring ?uestlove (the drummer for The Roots) and jam-jazz-folk legend Bela Fleck.

Now, if y'all haven't ever heard Quest talking about anything before, you really ought to listen: he offered up to the tightly-packed [...]
