"A moment of silence, a lifetime of laughter" is a lyric from the Mighty Mighty Bosstones' Noise Brigade. The Bosstones were dropped from the original bill of the first concert I ever attended. Here, I reminisce on various moments of silence and noise in a lifetime of laughter and a few scattered tears. "On the brighter side and on a happier note; the noise, well it's just love that gets caught in my throat."

01/23/07 Redman w/Rhythm Roots Allstars @ Canal Room, New York, NY
Somewhere along the line, it seems as if Redman got forgotten by the history of hip hop. He certainly gets his accolades, but he seems to no longer be in the conversation about great MC's.
This small club gig featured a stellar live backing band in what seemed to be the trend in hip hop shows at the time.
True to form, Redman smoked a fat blunt on stage.
The event fittingly featured free Olde English malt liquor.
