Yep I'm going to see them at the Birchmere on Oct. 11th.

I can't wait to pick this up! The samples sound really promising.

track 4 & 3 i have on repeat

Okay, I know I'm a little late, but I did go see The Robert Glasper Experiment last Thursday on the 11th and must I say HOT HOT HOT!!! Loved the show tremendously!!! Robert Glasper is a funny cat too, you can tell he knows how to have fun and play with the crowd. Extremely talented.. I see they have a new drummer, Mark Colenburg but I think that he's in the band for good and that Chris Dave is no longer with the Experiment. Though I've seen Chris' work on Youtube and a huge fan, Mark is JUST AS GOOD, no lie. He really did his thing. Casey Benjamin was excellent as well as Derrick Hodge. They were on stage for a good hour and 45 minutes, then came back on stage for an encore and performed another 15-20 minutes. Money was well spent, I'd definitely go to see them again.

The set list (from my memory, so I may be leaving some tracks out):

Dillatude

Smells Like Teen Spirit

Ah Yeah

Cherish the Day

The Light

Gonna Be Alright

A Love Supreme

Encore:

All Matter (plus two other songs but my memory fails me, sorry )

I had a great time, it was a great crowd and one of the best concerts I've been to in a long time.
