If I could I’d have bought another ticket in the interval. @Excalibah & the whole team over-delivered on what #TamboAndBones has the power to do to an audience & to the art form; left me sat in a place that was necessary & I thank you for that. The chat went on for hrs. Transfer!

Wishing the company of TAMBO & BONES the best of luck for their final performance tonight
That was one hip-hop concert we'll never forget
