Cookin With ?uestlove

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

Before he was giving Jimmy Fallon street cred or upstaging Dave Chappelle, ?uestlove was hosting mean parties back at Fluid Night Club in Philly which I attended religiously.  Although he dominates on the drums, this man knows how to DJ the shit out of a party. I’ve seen the Roots play more free shows than I can count, but I’ve missed him on the turntables lately.

What initially was going to be some epic warehouse party at the Old American Can Factory has now moved to Southpaw around the corner. Despite the scene change, there’s more than enough beats to make up for it. So whatever couch you planned on commandeering Sunday night, get off your ass and head down to Brooklyn. What better way to honor MLK, then for everyone to boogie down together.

Laura S - Spendthrift Scribe

Laura S, left the "sixth borough" three years ago to settle in Brooklyn. After working at some daily rags, she now does writing on the side but still eats more Ramen then necessary. When she's not moving residences every 6 months, eating her way through every neighborhood, and trying every microbrew known to man, she is unsuccessfully rediscovering home economics. With her binging days behind her, she's now exploring new projects and rediscovering the city that she loves (although is still prone to sliding on her knees during a Prince karaoke set).
