Waited years for this - If I ruled the World there would be cheap tickets for all the fans and no scalping.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Wed Oct 03, 2007 2:59 pm

In that case, pls start ruling soon Mr. Black star!

I wonder what the $$$ factor will be... here's hoping it isn't ridiculous.

Might be biased cause Bill is such a down to earth guy and has a heart of gold. But I think he has done the hard yards to lift his performance and his flow is wikkid. Not too mention his lyrical content, conscious vibes. This is the guy who started out as Mc called Bran Muffin way back in the days of Upper Hutt Posse etc.

Much Respect to a fellow Islander

He's definately wicked!! Apparantly a bit hard to work with, but if you've ever seen him live you can tell that he just live eats and breathes hip hop!

Almost smashed some dude once for giving him a 20 second listen and them just dissing him for sounding american! Hes samoan dick! half of it is american!

Yeah BS/Shikung - wasn't hanging shit on Kapisi - but I wouldn't say he's the best in the world. But... as Mr. Bukem says, "It's all a matter of opinion" innit?

Nas is farken dope but....$115....

It would prolly be worth it but theres no way I'm paying that much.
$70-$80 would've seen me there but $115 is pretty ridiculous, even if it is Nas...

Hardy · Post by **Hardy** » Wed Oct 10, 2007 8:57 pm

$115 is a bit obscene. I'm not going.

David Bass · Post by **David Bass** » Wed Oct 10, 2007 9:31 pm

yeah $115 hhhmmmm i was hoping for $80 at the most....

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Thu Oct 11, 2007 11:39 am

Fuck that.

$115 is ridiculous.

When you consider RATM @ $100. Talib and Scribe @ $75....

Biut fucking rich Nas - who exactly is your target audience with that sorta pricing?

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Thu Oct 11, 2007 4:40 pm

I'm thinking I'm going to have to buy a ticket tomorrow.

THIS HAD BETTER BE A FUCKING SOLID SHOW FOR $115.

If there's sound issues or anything, I'll be fucking pissed - well I'll prob be pissed anyway, but you catch my drift...

NaS Tour Cancelled! New Dates Scheduled For 2008
Hip Hop Is Dead... But Our Hopes Of Seeing The Star In Oz Still Glimmer
Australia has had the brakes put on its long-awaited pre-Christmas festivities, as sources today announced that the phenomenal "Hip Hop Is Dead" tour planned by NaS for November and December this year is being rescheduled to March and April of next year.

The reason provided for the unexpected rescheduling of NaS's tour plans is that his label, Def Jam US, has requested that NaS be available to them in the US for the promotion and final production stages of his next album, which they want to release next month.

The organisers assure fans that tickets for the November/ December tour will still be valid for the March/ April tour next year.

We know that all good things come to those who wait. Let's just hope the show goes on, bigger and better than ever!

They're still selling tickets on Ticketmaster for 24th Nov... WTF?

I know. I was trying to verify the MTV article.

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Thu Nov 08, 2007 9:31 am

I'm praying it's wrong.

Surely they'd advise their Australian tour agents first, who would in turn advise Ticketmaster7.

Pretty weak, piss-poor management from Def Jam if this is true - 2 weeks out from the gig. His first ever time in Australia. Gay.

Post by **JAMESSSS** » Thu Nov 08, 2007 10:45 am

Hmm let me find out

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Thu Nov 08, 2007 10:58 am

According to Def Jam's site, Nas has no impending tour dates.

Not that there'll be many peeps on here that care - but I just had a call from Ticketmaster as the NaS gig is officially cancelled, not postponed.

Sucks. They can't even commit to March/April to appease their long suffering Aussie fans.
