DJ Shadow Live from the Shadowsphere – North American tour 2010

Usually, when I say that I like trip-hop or my blog is about trip-hop, the reaction is "What? What -hop? What is it?" Then I drop a couple of names and people go "Oh, yeah! I like him/her/them/it!" One of those names is always DJ Shadow. A list of epithets should follow, including "influential" and "legendary", but why waste blog space and your time when I can post this saliva-inducing promo video for his North American tour:
