Tonite ya'll put the ILL in Philly for me. I'm so happy I scraped change to come out from Jersey to the Gathering. I don't think there will ever be a comparison to tonite. Mad respect for the moment of silence for Michael Jackson because between his music, the dance off, and James Brown...I never danced like that in front of anyone before. Thank you again for a memory I'll never forget!
