It's the Ness y'all!!!!!

(It was hard not to start quoting Marc "Chopper" Reed there.)

I may be out of context, whatever "that" means, but today I had a great experience. I was able to attend a Q&A with two B-Boy legends. One among the first to bring the Hip-Hop dance to Boston: Lino Delgado el Presidente de los Floor Lords, and the other, the main event who hails from Harlem: Zulu King Alien Ness. The whole jam was organized by: the Professor Dr. Joe Twist, who deserves the utmost respect.

They talked about their experiences being part of the culture in the younger days, and then were quick to answer questions with answers that took you somewhere, if you know what I mean. We laughed, we were serious, we sighed, and we were happy. The only thing odd about it was that it was in the middle of the day (started at 10:30), a little early for Hip-Hop we always say...Haha. It was a great way to start the day...

Check out the Floor Lords signature Saucony...
