    Ok, no one’s commented yet…

    I’m seeing them all tomorrow and I’m equal parts hyped on seeing some shit that I grew up with, and hesitant that the whole event is gonna be a kind of cash-grab feel to it…

    The tickets were not fucking cheap to say the least. But, originally it was supposed to Wu Tang (celebrating 30yrs since 36 chambers released) and Nas headlining. De La Soul got added after the fact, so that made the high ticket cost seem a bit more reasonable.

    Despite 36 Chambers being among the first dozen or so cassettes I ever owned, I’ve never seen more than 2 members of Wu perform together at once. Never seen Nas live, and never seen De La Soul either.

    So I’m hoping for a dope show, but going in with semi low expectations.

    If you’ve seen any shows on this tour, please do share your experiences and opinions

      Saw Nas when he was touring with Mary J. Blige for “Lost Tapes 2” and man it was incredible. Tbf it was a much more stripped down affair than what I imagine this show is going to be, but the energy and vibe was straight out of the early hip hop bboys/mc era. Plus the man is a legend so if nothing else it’ll be cool getting to say you saw him live :)
