Cool Hundo


Got tipped a hundred dollar bill after playing Snoop Dogg's "Who Am I (What's My Name?)" at the UBG last June. Some dude named "Patrice" came up to the stage afterwards and said a few brief kind words and stuck his hand out. As we shook hands, I felt a bit of paper in his hand, like some illegal transaction, y'know? After he walked away, I thought, Wow, he just tipped me some cash, maybe a fiver or a ten! I was shocked when I opened my palm to see a Benjamin looking back at me! Awesome.

After packing up my gear, I wanted to thank "Patrice" for his generosity. I noticed he was walking out the door. I yelled "Thanks alot, Patrice". He nodded and said "My cousin woulda loved that" and walked out the door.

Well, thanks again, Patrice, whoever you are. And whoever your cousin is!
