The Saturday Knights Save Sunday Night

Hip hop's The Saturday Knights are a Seattle band and proud of it, from Tilson's Sonics cap to the samples from the Fleet Foxes' "White Winter Hymal" and Band of Horses' car commercial. We weren't really dying to hear anything on Sunday night except TSK's Tilson, Barfly, and DJ Suspence, and they lived up to our expectations. New to us was Tilson's elegy for Isaac Hayes, sung over a sample from the theme to Shaft. It's hard to stay in focus, we learned, when you're helplessly dancing and singing along. Also that Tilson is a hyperkinetic son of a bitch.
