Los Angeles, March 31 (IANS) American hip-hop band The Roots have cancelled David Bowie tribute concerts that they were scheduled to perform, multi-instrumentalist Questlove has announced.
They were to perform on Thursday and Friday.
Questlove wrote a lengthy Instagram post about the concerts, attributing the bands cancellation to a dispute over sharing equipment, reports variety.com.
Mood. Ive never been so insecure or petty as to deny a fellow musician use of any of my equipment (or my bands equipment--or resources or contacts or knowledge or anything) it angers me when that same courtesy is not reciprocated, Questlove wrote.
(Believe you me I was about to get Tom Petty or Petty Wap or Pet Rock and C L Smooth or Black Petty or however you wanna roll with it)... Keeping a level head and not being self destructive is a weak point Im working on.
But Im also keeping it true: The Roots pulled out of these Bowie gigs. We have patience. But we do not have patience for the Bitcha**ness. Enjoy your precious equipment, he added.
