He killed the Hob down here a few months back...He ran through his classics...Did some songs from his short stint in jiggy land...The show was great though...Dude's catalog is long. Although who am I kidding I was to "blunted" to really remember much.
I was pleasantly surprised too, I thought it was a really good show (in Stockholm). Some of the old classics deserved more than one verse, but I can also understand him not wanting to live in Illmatics shadow all his life. That said, some of the youngins in the audience seemed to know every word of every song from the last album, while looking confused during "NY state of mind", and I guess Nas is playing more for them than for me. Bonus points for not having useless hangarounds with mics on stage.
