I think they may have played norway recently, but it was in Oslo and I was unable to go...
hopefully they'll drop by Bergen some time or maybe they'll play Oslo again when I have the time/money.

I've seen The Roots live, and you have reason to be excited. It was something called a "double concert" here in Trondheim, where Asiandubfoundation was the other band. ADF was way past their prime musically, and a total disappointment live. I enjoyed their first albums and had some hope for a good concert, but they just anced around and acted like uninspired and arrogant pricks.
The Roots' performance was excellent. They also behaved kinda arrogant, but in a cool way. Especially Questlove banging them drums and fiddling his afro-comb like he was the king of hip-hop. They really rocked the venue, so I guess you're up for a nice evening :)

did they do a 70s rock medley with stuff like Ironman and Dazed and Confused when you saw them? that blew my little smelly socks off.

They were fucking awesome by the way. Seeing them live this time pushed Game Theory up my album of the year. Questlove singing Roxanne was also badass.
Plan B was all right in support as well.

Nice. Didn't see your question until now, but I can't remember if they played that medley-thing. This was in 2001, and I had only heard "Things Fall Apart" (excellent album, btw) before I went to the concert.

No. As you might have noticed, The Roots and Efterklang has kinda different styles. Since The Roots-concert had the volume on max, you couldn't actually hear any Jæren-farmer shouting: "Åååh! Eg e så fudle! Detta e kjedeligt, spell nåkke Eifeks!"
:P
