VIDEO: Moments from Freestyle Explosion Throwback Jam 2021

What an incredible night it was! The Q105 Saturday Night Dance Party was your host for Freestyle Explosion Throwback Jam at Amalie Arena in Tampa August 20, 2021. There were amazing live performances by TKA, Stevie B, Expose, Debbie Deb, Montell Jordan, Tag Team, Lisa Lisa and so many more. Check out this video captured by our Q105 video crew!

And check out Geno’s cell phone pics he snapped backstage!

To be on stage right in the same spot where the Tampa Bay Lightning gathered around Andrei Vasilevskiy after winning their second Stanley Cup in 2 years was pretty darn cool.

69 Boyz about to go on stage to do the song I was waiting for most… “Tootsie Roll!”
Share
Whoomp there they are!
Share
And yup, Tag Team even did their Geico version of Whoomp, “Scoop There It Is”
Share
I’m 6’4″ but Montell Jordan makes me look short!
Share
This is how we do it!
Share
Hello Trinere!
Share
Montell shared his uplifting spiritual message…
Share
He hosted the Saturday Night Dance Party for me last week, it’s George LaMond!
Share
George was awesome and of course did “Bad of the Heart”
Share
When 69 Boyz did “Tootsie Roll” I went insane. Unfortunately some listeners got it on video.
Share
TKA stole the show!
Share
Look at DJ Hoof striking a pose.

A great crowd of freestyle and throwback jam lovers filled Amalie Arena!

I had to show some Lightning love!
Share
Expose sounded fantastic… such great voices.
Share
Lisa Lisa performed hit after hit.
Share
Was I impersonating a former President? I don’t remember this moment.
Share
Time for the main event… Stevie B!
Share
So many hits… Party Your Body, In My Eyes, I Wanna Be The One…
Share
The cell lights came out when Stevie slowed it down to perform “Because I Love You.”
Share
Lettin’ loose! Hoof, Nestor and I rockin’ out to The King.
Share
And of course, he finished his set off with “Spring Love”
Share
Post-concert hangout… we headed to Ybor.
Share
Got together with some listeners to party a little more before going home!
Share
Karaoke happened… it wasn’t pretty.
