A friend of mine saw them when Ol' Dirty Bastard was still alive.
He said ODB just crouched at the front of the stage glaring at the crowd and refusing to join in with any of the tracks, until they played Shimmy Shimmy Ya, at which point he became animated and alive instead of some weird drug-infused hip-hop gargoyle. Fun times.

I saw ODB at Ilford
He was pissed out of his nut, barely said any rhymes, spent most of his set telling chicks where his hotel was and then his trousers fell down. 10/10

I have met GZA, Method Man and Cappadonna
GZA solo live is fucking superb. Seen him 3 times. On one occasion with his band, who had ODB's brother Ramsey Jones on drums. Also seen Wu with YDB and it was like they all got old and ODB was still a kid.

Ever heard Gza's first record on Cold Chillin?
