Questlove Instagram – Man…..40 years ago tonight. Not since The Beatles on Sullivan. Maybe Woodstock the movie. But dude——the difference was lightening in a bottle. The other two events you couldn’t call it…but this event was AFTER an already mammoth event (Motown 25) and before that (ruling MTV w 2 other videos) that by that point already seemed like ——-like what more can there be? Man listen. I got into an accident the morning of the 2nd and had to go to the hospital that morning. One would think being in pain was why I was upset. The real reason was all my cousins and friends would get to see Thriller’s premiere and not me. I’d have to wait until the next weekend (no cable in the hood, suburbs only at my uncles crib)———after this night? Nothing would remain the same.
