Went to the show way too early yesterday around 7:30p. I guess I got good seats to chill so it worked out. We sat next to super fans (from Monterey) of opener Damian Jr Gong Marley (a mouthful, and yes, he is related to legendary Bob Marley, his youngest son), lotta people came to see him actually. Not really my cup, some of it you can listen and vibe to

Snoop came out way too late with little fanfare. He wore one of those bomber hoodie with gold foil emblems I've seen on the streets, I really mean the ghetto. I wish he played more classic ish from Doggystyle, he ran through the old stuff fast in a medley. Tonight's RIP tribute was for 2Pac, boring. The one or couple of new songs weren't so hype, the Kels joint I like was played to end the concert (from a tape/record). I'm not holding my breath for Blue Carpet Treatment, due out Nov 21

No encores. Quite a boring rap show though I got up for "Tha Next Episode". Was expected actually because of the size of the venue. In fact the best moment might have been special guest Oakland player Too Short performing "Blow The Whistle". Snoop said that was his favorite song ever (really?). I only wish the super bay area rapper roll call freestyle following was 1/3 that interesting. I think 4 Tay was in the building but even Snoop couldn't coax him on stage. Where was 40 at?

My homey said he got high from all the weed in the room (never has smoking rules indoor been so lax), but he kinda whack

I'm out $50 for this bs. My pictures, Nico's


Here's the video for Too Short "Blow The Whistle"
