JayZ concert

C_Breeze

anyone here going to it? ..and anyone know who the support acts are gonna be??

Doomspell

Not going to it, but a friend is. The support acts are Rhianna and Neyo. As far as I know.

franglan

i'm goin to it. i heard that the two artist mentioned will support him for some of the tour. in an interview jay z said he wanted to bring on tour artists with new albums in the pipeline. would anyone like to see young jeezy?

ghostdancer

i wouldn't.

i'd prefer to see Freeway and TruLife on there, although i doubt either of them would be brought along on a world tour, but ya never know, Freeway's got a new album out soon, and no doubt Rocafella will be wanting some promo for that. dunno what the story is with Tru these days though. still on RocLaFamilia last i heard, but haven't heard much from him lately apart from the odd guest track on a mixtape here and there....

PG4000

Green Lantern is the DJ for the tour

Oh FFS:rolleyes:

You go to a hip hop concert and end up listening to sH1te pop. THats puttin me off goin now:(

David19

Rhianna and Neyo arent the support acts as they're touring america at the same time. Lupe Fiasco is supporting. I'm looking forward to seeing him.

me and the biz

yeah just read (not in the above post:)) Lupe is supporting him, should be good. He's decent enough I suppose

DermoMIO

lupe is supporting him in the uk apart from manchester so he might not be supporting him here unless the manchester gig is after our one and rihianna was in the uk alst nite for the mobo;s so u never know if she turns up and lupe doesnt

Check the tour dates. Lupe is supporting.

ghostdancer

anyone know of anything decent on after the gig?

kevri

rick ross is also supporting with green lantern djing and lupe fiasco + possibly memphis bleek.

regards anything after, the rap ireland afterparty is on in the cavern club (beside radio city and opposite busaras) that will be Hip-Hop/RnB until 2.30/3am adm is 5e with guestlist/advance or 10e on the door

Orizio

Oooo Memphis Bleek and Rick Ross!!And ye had a problem with Ne-Yo...

Linoge

Heard on the radio that Beyonce will be there tonight. 100% confirmed.

What did yas think of it?

mazroo

I was un impressed... thought it was nothin special ALL.....

Busterpuss

i was hugely impressed. had to move from the middle to the back cos all i could see were hands and backs in the middle. couldnt even see the screen.

thought it was the business, he could sh*t on me and i would think its the business tho

peepsbates

loved it, great night:D

moneyman

Yeah it was a brilliant night. He's a class performer, I was in the pit about 10 feet away from him. Its crazy to see him up close! Anyone got any pictures they can upload? Where were the rest of you watching from?

peepsbates

ill put some up when i get em off a mate

mdwexford

he was unreal
best gig ever
jay-z is da man

Jay Ru

great ****ing gig, dude rocked the gaff. i got a **** load of footage from the gig i'll stick it up when i get a chance. that "heart of the city" over U2's "bloody sunday was class. shame about the bono intro. oh can somebody please tell me who was that dj that played before jigga came on, think its the same guy who played before kanye too. god he was awful.

Tha Gopher

So who were the special guests? God Id have loved to see Nas at it.

As for false rumours, its part and parcel of Irish gig promotion. Like when Dr Dre was meant to be on holiday in the ould emerald isle and decided to call in to Snoop in the point to sing his halves of G Thang and Next Episode. Or when a bird in work who was going to Take That and got wetter than an otters pockets (judging by her screams and face when it was announced on radio) when the news from a "reliable" source had FM104 prolaiming Robbie Williams would join them.

I hate the media

fermoyboy

Wouldn't be a massive Hip Hop fan but was really impressed by Jay Z the other night, he put on a good show. I was in the pit so was able to watch it in comfort and enjoyed it.

Anyone else get annoyed at every gig they go to in Ireland when that stupid 'Ole Ole' starts up??? Wrecks my head

I thought that was absolutely awful. In agreement that Bono's intro was absolute crap also.

whoops!

moneyman

I got my pictures back today, they came out completely $h1t. Really dark. And before anyone asks, yes I did have the flash on. I bought the camera off a fella selling them off the street outside. Maybe they were just bad quality. A bit pissed off now, but what can ya do.

Orizio

Eamon Sweeney gave the gig an awful review today in the Indy,not that I expect anything else from the Irish media.However,I have heard Jigga is supposed to be pretty weak live.What were his support like?I know Nas turned up for a gig in Germany with Jigga.

anyone who gave that gig an awful review doesnt have a clue what they are talking about
where did you here he was weak live???
any live performances ive seen have been excellent

peepsbates

it was a fuppin great show, jay played a stormer

Tha Gopher

I repeat AD nausueam

WHO THE **** SUPPORTED????

Was Bono there on stage? Fair play, seeing as U2 have treated their Irish fans 2nd to the American fans pretty much since they hit the big time.......

Jay Ru

lupe fiasco & rick ross provided support and that terrible dj (don't know who he is) bono wasn't on stage it was a recorded video message!

chief_stains

Gig was excellent, the ole ole's were a freaking joke, DJ before was terrible he even threw a bit of Blur in for good measure, Rick Ross was unimpressive - was hoping for him and JayZ to do the Hustlin' remix, Memph Bleek sounds more and more like a 14 yr old girl - and i only managed to get one decent pic on my phone...

moneyman

Does anyone know if he'll be coming back to Ireland? And it was being recoreded, anyone know if it will be on sale on DVD?

Jay Ru

don't know if it will be on any dvd. the same set is available on the dvd "fade to black" its the same concert recorded in m.s.g. but with a hell of a lot more guests.

abetarrush

maybe she didnt want to spoil ticket sales for june???

disgrace she appeared at the english gigs and not over here
boycott her own gig next summer i say

chief_stains

disgrace she appeared at the english gigs and not over here

erm, you for real?!? I'm glad she didn't come out. Wha would that have done for the gig, nothing. I went to see Jay-Z not freaking her. Would have been a different story if it were Nas, Beans etc. So to call it a disagrace, i dunno, maybe you're the disgrace...

some people wanted to see beyonce, she shouldnt have appeared at the english gigs and not here imo. maybe open your tiny little mind to the fact that what you wanted to see isnt the be all and end all :mad:

She can do what she likes, why shouldn't she appear in England and not here? You went to a Jay-Z gig fella, get your tickets for Beyonce and off ye go.

Thats pretty simple to answer. There is more money to be made in england due to the higher population. Its that simple. Beyonce is all about the commercialism...
