Anyone been to a show at the Avalon b4? Is Talib Kwelia gonna be an 18+ or 21+ show? I really wanna go! I think the Montreal and Ottawa dates are switched around--the Cisco...is in Ottawa and the Jarry...is in Montreal. How do we get tickets? The Black Eyed Peas site was selling them but you had to pay...
35617, RE: Talib Kweli: July | August Dates
Posted by makesureshes18, Mon Jul-04-05 01:00 PM

Posted by jkov82, Thu Aug-18-05 08:42 AM
You can bring in cameras as long as they dont have a detachable lense. in other words any disposable or standard dig camera, just nothing professional. they will pat you down and make you toss bottles and sometimes they check packs of cigs for joints....

35649, RE:TALIB KWELI IS THA SHIT!!!! and Jean Grae and Res 2
Posted by shae07, Sat Aug-20-05 11:02 AM
I checked him at the philly concery on the 18th and it was the so the hassle of the Electric Factory.

Jean Grae was awesome too, I'm now a fan and RES was okay, she's mad talented but her drummer was dumb loud.
35650, RE: Talib Kweli: New Dates (JEAN GRAE) (updated 8/16)
Posted by NURConductor777, Sat Aug-20-05 11:58 AM
Honestly I can say that Jean Grae, Kweli, Res show was the best show I have ever lived to see. If a show never tops this level of beauty again, I'll be iight, cuz I was fulfilled this day, Aug 19 in DC by lyrical assassins bringin words of justice to the ears of hip hop listeners who can hear, not that 40 cent crap the radio jams in your ear - that real shit, f'sure that lifts you like legend and gives u peace like lennon - Thank you Jean Grae, Res, and especially, Black Star's other half, himself, Talib Kweli, for an INsanely incredible 4 hour (for $10!!!) show that I will never forget. And just to add to the love of it all, I met Jean Grae afterwards, damn life is good.
Godbless,
