Props on the info will be their.

Lol @ Omar's name being printed in bigger letters than Akon's. Doesn't really make sense now, does it? Although the show DOES take place in LA, so maybe that's why they decided to put Omar more on the forefront...
Anyway, thanks for the heads-up. Omar performing with the big boys now. Not really artists I respect, but still good in terms of giving Omar some exposure.
-
Just good to see Omar performing with some big names. Defently a good look for Cruz. Much props.
-
Ill be there tonight. Showing my support for the west.

you guys are lucky. LA got so many concerts and stuff to goto.

WOW ,what in the fuck was up with that show. I've been to near 100 shows, and this was the first no show for a headliner. People were waiting for over 5 hours for Weezy, I myself waited close to 4 hours. Started off with this band from Memphis, which was probably the best thing about the night. and then Omar Cruz came out and did a couple songs like Wal with my doggz and that game track, and then Glasses came out and did like one hunned and certified, and mack 10 did one or two songs.. keep in mind these sporadic 2 song performances were over a course of four hours. and then finally the security started kicking everyone out of the upper section, and moving everyone downstairs. I thought that weezy wasnt coming out cos the floor was pretty bare. It was already 2am and then when everyone got downstairs, some prety loud noises started goin off, and everyone just started runnin out the door. it was loud enough to hear over the music that the dj was playing, so it was pretty damn loud, but it didnt sound like a gunshot either, so im not exactly sure what happened... but yeah when driving away, I saw like 10 cop cars in the artist lot next to the tourbus, and then drove right by Suge Knight, in fact almost hit him as he was walkin out into the street. what a night... at least I got the ROOTS pre grammy jam session 08 tomorrow which will more than make up for this lackluster night.

I RATHER LEAN LIKE A CHOLO WITH BABY DOWN!!!

so weezy didnt perform? i was going to go to the show too glad i didnt go =)
suge and glasses have issues with each other right?
-
yeah weezy didnt come out to perform.
i dunno if suge and glasses have any real issues, besides the fact that glasses says people shouldnt be scared of suge. i dotn think theres any real legitimate beef.

props for the review
-
Thx for the quik review, Justin. Did Akon do his set?
And I'm curious...how was the crowd's reaction to Omar's songs? Can you compare it to that of the other artists who performed that night? Thx.
-
wayne and birdman was there and suge was there.suge and glasses are good.i have a few pics of suge and glasses from the lil wayne video shoot that was shot thurs in vegas.the promoter did a bad job of promoting the show so it flopped.they didnt have the rest of wayne money so he didnt get out of the bus.......

LOL

who exactly was the promoter? the place seemed very bare for a lil wayne show.
the whole show just seemed so weird, the gay ass host kept on asking the crowd about who was a UC student, and im like what the hell is this, some frat party? isnt everyone supposed to be 21+...
at least its a understandable reason that he didnt come out, and just not a flat out no show.
Akon didnt do his set... it was supposed to be like Fabolous, Fat Joe, Khaled, Baby , Lil Wayne, and like hosted by Kim Kardashian, but i didnt see a single one of them.
Not sure if the crowd was familiar with Omar, like i said before, i think there was a lot of white boy college students in the crowd... but the latinos were definitely supporting him. dont think they were familiar with him off hand, but after reiterating a few times that he was the only latino artists on interscope, they started showing him some support.
same as glasses, people didnt really recognize him off hand until he performed Certified.

i was wondering where did they get that crowd from myself.glasses have done so many shows in la and those was all new ppl to him plus he wasnt supposed to perform @ all we just did it to do it.we rock for 2 or 20000 ppl.akon was never supposed to be there he had his own party that night so i dont know why his name was on that flier.wayne and birdman was just doing a walk through.i saw tank in the back but im thinking they didnt have his money so he left.nobody really knew about that show till the day b4

Damn...that concert promoter is likely to lose his job over this then, I guess. What a bad fucking way to promote a show. And plus, that flyer looks cheap as hell. First time I laid eyes on that flyer I already thought there was something fishy about this. All those big names on a pre-Grammy event...and this is made public only a dan in advance. Was too good to be true. Lol.
-
yeah thats prob one of the worst flyers ive EVER seen, haha. i knew something fishy was going on too as soon as i saw it, but speaking to the PR people it seemed like it was ok.. guess i was wrong.
