my chick won tickets to see him in Monterey, CA a few months back. THis was a month or so before his album dropped. i wasn't too sure about dude at first, cuz I don't really bump that type of music. But I'm glad I was able to see him, cuz dude is Tight. The concert was perfect too. The only way to get in was to win tickets from this radio station, so it was a small audience of about 100 people or so. and he came out & sat right there at the piano & performed for like an hour straight. no band, no backup, just him....dude was playing the piano & singin & shit...he's a throwback type artist. not too many cat's out right now who are as musically talented as him....good shit man.
