Black Thought performing with The Roots live at Austin City Limits festival

By all accounts The Roots tore Austin City Limits festival down to the foundations with their live appearance over the weekend–and now thanks to the magical tubes connecting computers in Texas to yours you can ignore all accounts and watch the entire 70-minute set your damn self. Can’t say I’ve ever seen the Legendary off their game, but from a mosh-pit version of their now-trademarked Beastie Boys/Chuck Brown tribute into the big chords of “Proceed” you know this is gonna be a good one. Watch below:
