As first announced on lasvegasweekly.com, expert turntabilist and self-proclaimed “hardcore scratch nerd” Qbert begins his Vegas residency June 23 at Crown nightclub. Dubbed “The Movement,” the Wednesday night party celebrating Asian-American culture will feature Qbert, one of America’s Best DJs, twice a month.

But before Qbert arrives in Vegas with vinyl records in tow (yup — real, actual, vinyl), the Weekly caught up with the DJ while he was grocery shopping in his hometown of San Francisco to chat about the b-boy and b-girl culture, going “balls out" in his sets, yo-yos, his Scratch University and DJ Hero 2, inspiring others via Twitter, plus his solution if he needs to use the facilities while spinning.

Music featured in this podcast from Qbert's Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze Musik (A Preskool Breakmix).
