    No, but I saw DJ Spooky when he was first comming up and he was spending around bobbing his head like he was JMB. Not long after he started getting well know and a critic dissed him for trying to be like JMB. I don't know enough to care, but I thought it was funny that I thought "who's this JMB wanna be" and then when i asked him if he was a different DJ on the bill he said "no I'm Spooky". BTW he killed it with some crazy old reggae spead up beat juggle while the rodies were carying his coffin off stage. Dude just walked with them and kept juggling. ILL!

    I caught it with my girl and some friends (hi Shig) last thursday... shit was soooooo amazing. It was my first time seeing any of his pieces in person and I can't stress enough how much better they are that way than in a book. With that said, it's a bit overwhelming seeing all of them like that so I didn't really get to absorb it all the way. It's here till october and will be going back several times.

    GO SEE IT.
