Title: Just Saw Kanye West & Jay-Z Live..
Post by: Lunatic on November 23, 2011, 11:02:06 PM
In Toronto, "Watch the Throne" tour.

Was dope as fuck, I was 14 rows up and they rocked it for 2 and a half hours straight! No breaks, no surprise guests, no opening act - Just straight Yeezy & Jigga for nearly three hours!

They did the majority of the Watch the Throne album (No Church in the Wild, Lift Off, Niggas in Paris, Gotta Have It, Otis, New Day, That's My Bitch, Welcome to the Jungle, Who Gon Stop Me, Made in America & H.A.M.)

They also did 95% of their solo hits which was dope!

Jay-Z did:
Encore, Dirt off Your Shoulder, 99 Problems, Public Service Announcement, Izzo, Where I'm From, Run This Town, U Don't Know, Empire State of Mind, Onto the Next One, Jigga What Jigga Who, I Just Wanna Love U (Give It To Me), Big Pimpin' and more..

Kanye did:
Stronger, Good Life, Can't Tell Me Nothing, Flashing Lights, Power, All of the Lights, Monster, Runaway, All Falls Down, Jesus Walks, Touch the Sky, Gold Digger, Diamonds Remix (with Jay-Z of course), Heartless and more

They did "Niggas in Paris" 3 times LOL. Twice back to back to close the show, left the stage for 2 minutes and came back to an "encore" chant of course.. Did "Niggas In Paris" one more time and then Jay-Z closed the night with "Encore"... How fitting lol

Some girl in the front row was lucky, Jay-Z took her copy of the album with a sharpie, signed it, made Kanye sign it too and gave it back to her...

Also some dude threw a Toronto Blue Jays hat on stage lol (the new hat with the "new" logo which essentially goes back to the old logo) and instead of throwing fits, Kanye put it on and rocked it lol..

Overall a dope snow, glad I got to see two of my favorites for the first time

I'm not a big Jay-Z fan, but Kanye's shows always look tight. Unfortunately I've never attended one. Hopefully there'll be a WTT (live) dvd or something like that. That'd be tight. :)

I saw them perform a few weeks ago in New York at Madison Square Garden, both were amazing. They dropped "N*ggas In Paris" three times there as well...

6 times in Boston ;) I'd love to see them live. Kanye likes to shoot videos and movies in Prague but not performing here...

Is it not a BAD thing that they have to perform the same shit 7 times? I mean, was the rest of WTT really that bad that they had to do the same track 7 times?

it does have that southern feel to it

I think performing it 7 times is overkill but the fans don't seem to mind

7 times in one show? Whoa, way overkill in my opinion. 2, even 3 times might be great, but 7? :eh:

During some shows, they don't do "Encore." They replace it with Niggas In Paris 1 more time  ???

Like for the example, the first night in Toronto, they did Niggas In Paris 3 times and closed the show with "Encore."

But the second night in Toronto, they did "Niggas In Paris" 5 times in a row and that was it..
