46000, Dave Chappelle's Block Party All Stars
Posted by gingerlynn, Tue Feb-14-06 10:57 PM
Dave Chappelle, featuring Black Thought, Talib Kweli, Erykah Badu, and possibly Mos Def. Live stand-up comedy, and live music. From what I know they are still putting this together, working out details, etc., so keep your eyes open for additions to the bill.


I snagged these links from other posts for additional info:

no way that show is coming to Richmond...

if they hit DC, I might ride for that...
46017, damn Ovens Auditorium!!
Posted by KinkyThought, Wed Feb-15-06 10:34 AM

I tried to click into Ticketmaster from 9:59 and kept getting the "no tickets for sale" message until about 10:20. I had a friend in line at Ovens at the same time... there were six people ahead of her in line and "best available" was the back row of the orchestra???

But I took them, though.
46018, Damn it to hell....

I didnt even know he was coming to Charlotte until I saw this post...

Damn damn damn...
46019, what a fuckin' nightmare
Posted by tully_blanchard, Wed Feb-15-06 10:35 AM
go there 20 minutes early, 2nd in line, no prob.

about 5 minutes before the tix go on sale, the lady tells us the system is down, and they dont know when it will be back up.

so i wait....

and i wait...(like Scorsese in Taxi driver)

at the same time, i'm calling the number. Right when i get through, the lady says that the system is back up. The person in front of me knew the person behind me, gave her money to her and bounced, so now i'm first.

I get the fuckin balcony, row ss.

possibly the worst seat in the house.

Great. Another concert that won't come anywhere near Memphis. I'm happy for the rest of ya'll, though. I'm just in the wrong city for this type of hip-hop. Maybe one day after pigs fly and hell freezes over, we'll get more diverse acts in the M-town, as opposed to Little Webbie and Project Pat.

I know that they must of had a block set aside or something. I mean the shit was sold out before the 'buy tickets' link on The Warfield site was active.</heated>

Oh I heard for sure it's going to be Erykah Badu, Mos def, and of course Dave Chappezze... :D
46059, Wait you got both of them for a total of 180?
Posted by explizit, Thu Feb-16-06 06:08 PM
where? on craigslist they were all selling for 150 each! cheapest I saw was 250 for a pair. damn, but I still ain't spending that much, this is just a bunch of hype, it'll be dope as hell, but I don't got the money for this.
46060, RE: Wait you got both of them for a total of 180?
Posted by dulce_421, Fri Feb-17-06 03:20 PM
Yeah this dude was selling 2 extra tickets for 185 both of them. They're not the best seats, but f*ck it they will do! I did see the ones you're talking about 150, fools are trippin.

I'm going to the madlib/jrocc/peanut butter wolf show/tribute to jay dee tonight at the mezzanine. so I'm cool on spending 200$ to go see chappelle and friends, it'll be dope, but that's a grip to spend for one show. Give us a review on tues!

She had a good time. On the ride up to Charlotte, I was building her prior knowledge of who Kweli/Mos/Blackstar are.

yeah she and I both thought that there would be a Roots sighting, but maybe next go 'round.

She really enjoyed Badu's set...

And she even got an auto on the Season 2 DVD box

Posted by The Uhmah, Sat Feb-25-06 10:21 AM
Dave did a few routines. He was funny as usual. Kweli ripped it. He did quite a few jawns. Erykah's voice was hoarse as hell, but she still managed to put on a decent show. The band was tight. Then near the end, she, Kweli and Dave all freestyled different stuff. Dave even busted a little freestyle. It was held at the Black Forest theater in sunny south Dallas. I was kinda hoping The Fugees would make a surprise performance...but I guess I was wishing for too much.
46088, ok umm....
Posted by jazzie0009, Sat Feb-25-06 10:45 AM

Posted by 12th son, Sun Feb-26-06 07:43 AM
About how many people attended or showed up-roughly? I mean was it a sell out or did it appear to be one. So this goes out to the players that went. While it sounded pretty cool from the cat that went, I think I'll get more out of the movie or when it comes out on DVD, than had I put down 55 bucks for a ticket.
46091, I hope he adds more dates...

46094, Philly's show last night
Posted by imaphillygirl, Tue Feb-28-06 09:44 AM
I have to tell you this show was okay, nothing to brag about. Dave Chappelle was hilarious of course but he was more like a host of the concert. The funniest part of the evening is when Dave had them playing the theme songs from Good Times and The Jeffersons and the white folks were looking like "What the fuck?" Talib Kweli was good but most of the folks that came out, I don't think they were familiar with his music or style. Black Thought and Mos Def did not show.

Now onto Erykah.......As much as I love her, she sucked!!!!!! I've seen her live and I swear her show is to die for but last night at the Tower was another story. What happened? Then they cut her show so she started to do a medley of some songs. She didn't do "Kiss me on my neck" or "I want you". I was very disappointed.

The jam session at the end was a joke.

Black Ice came out and stole the whole show. They could have given him more time.

46095, thank you for posting, I am glad I didnt go now
