The Roots... Live...?

Hi, anyone got any thought on The Roots live...?

They are playing some dates over here in the UK in a couple of months and I'm just trying to decide whether to go see 'em.

I've heard the last 3 albums but wondered if anyone here had seen 'em or had an opinion on them live.

I've seen The Roots a few times. Well worth it, if you haven't been before. They're great musicians as well as ace rappers.

they're pretty good, although their solos can get quite lengthy.
