?uesto’s Bus Crashes, Blogs / Twitters It

If you follow ?uestlove, the eccentric and completely awesome drummer of the Roots, on Twitter, you get the feeling that dude is constantly on his mobile device, in front of his computer, or doing something electronic-y when not DESTROYING a set.

Such as the case, recently, when their tour bus crashed last night in Paris.

Thankfully, again, everyone is OK.

What makes this funny is reading ?uesto’s blog entries and Twitter entries right after the crash happened…as he waited for the ambulance…as he thought about what to do right after the crash.

This new world of knowing what our favorite artists are doing at any given moment, even in moments of stress and peril, is unique indeed. While ?uesto is definitely the exception, not the rule, when it comes to interacting with his audience and promoting unsung acts (read: Okayplayer), it definitely makes his cross-world adventures more popcorn friendly.
