    I thought he was great and the crowd were into it. I didn't go into it with huge expectations though. For €20 ya couldn't go far wrong

    As for the support act Deliverance (sorry evasion_kid), they were absolute garbage. The singer and guitarist seemed decent, DJ wasn't too bad on the cuts, but the 2 lads can barely rap. Some of the most simplistic of lyrics.
    The way a mate of mine put it, they were like a German rap group from the 90's trying to rap in English. Not to mention that one of the lads looked like a wrestler and his on stage presence was akin to what Chris Jericho does when walking into the squared circle. Fair play to them for giving it a bash, but they need to move away from simplicity.

    I know all the members of deliverance, as far as I know the guy you described as looking like a wrestler (cloaky) isn't rapping very long, a couple of years maybe. As for the singer and guitarist (Babz and Chris) theyre a serious act when they're not with deliverance.

    Didn't catch the lads at premos gig but have seen them live a couple of times. Agree they need to step away from the simple stuff, I'm sure that'll come with time!

    Was at his last show at the sugar club in 2013. It was very good, but like many artists who don't put out new material I wouldn't be too pushed to see him again.

    Went to Big Daddy Kane last night, only about 50 people there. He was good but like the poster above don't think i'd go to see him again

    It's surprising really that none of the 'elders of hip hop' as it were haven't done a tour together recently, surely that would get good numbers?

    That's disappointing to hear! Saw him a few years ago in the village he played for about 40 mins, was great to see him but likewise wouldn't go t see him again. Was hoping it was a once off
