My family at Live Nation invited me out to New Jersey leg of the Jay-Z Blueprint 3 Tour yesterday. I got to see Trey Songz, Young Jeezy and Jay-Z Featuring Memphis Bleek. Fabolous also made a quick cameo with Trigga to perform their hit song.
The coveted All Access pass…. This badge really means all access for real.
The amount of passes you need to maneuver around the restricted areas is quite hilarious. I guess I can join any leg of the tour with these badges.
I always like seeing the backstage programs, it really gives you a small look of how things get organized.
Jay-Z actually performed before Jeezy which was kind of unusual…Jay-Z had the crowd open for Jeezy when he came on stage.
Jay-Z’s wardrobe consisted of Balmain Jackets, Radii shoes and those cargo pants he loves to wear on tour. He had a entire room for his wardrobe alone. He threw a hat out in the crowd and then told someone he needed another and voila another black Yankees hat appeared.
Between me and you guys I was kind of disappointed that DJ Neil Armstrong was not on this tour…I felt like it was missing the personality of a DJ. Jay-Z had his engineer Young Guru on the 1’s and 2’s instead, Guru did an excellent job but I just feel like a DJ like Neil, brings a bit of action to the stage. I was really surprise to see Guru scratch it up though.
Overall is was a great show! When you go to a Jay-Z concert you know he is going to give you 100%.
Thanks to my family at Live Nation for the love and amazing hospitality and big shout out to the Roc Nation Gang!
* BTW Jay-Z is a Business, man
