Transmitting live from Mars Volta

Couple of talking points about this classic Tommy Boy advert for De La's 3 Feet High And Rising below :


1. Was esteemed rock-canon expert Questlove responsible for the "The Sergeant Peppers' of The Eighties" tagline?

2. Would it have been such a bad thing if the alabaster devil on the poster had come out of his local store clutching a record by U2 in 1989 since he could've copped the 7" of the only good song they've ever made?

Dope find!

I wish I could find a creative/funny way to describe my hatred of Questlove hyperbole, but I'll just settle on my go-to "ugh..."

Not gonna front, I saw High Fidelity a few days back and kinda enjoyed it. I mean nothing had changed, its Questlove in film form and Cusack's narration shit is still shit but idk, it was pleasant.

The fucks going on
