>I was like "thanks for nothing, I'd rather not know that they

>for Rahzel.. I would've said a lot of apologizes to my friends
>on the drive back.. it just wasn't the concert we anticipated
>to see.. for that, we would've stayed home. We've already seen
>The Roots with Kane and with Common here in Chicago..
