If you love the smell of weed, then this is the summer concert for you!
Decided to take three teenagers to Summer Jam as a graduation present since many of their favorite performers were scheduled perform and I wanted to see Burna Boy. Arrived to the Met Life Stadium and was immediately hit with a $40 charge for parking. Once we entered ALL we could smell was weed. As we navigated an endless sea of bodies to find our floor seats, I was shocked to find that NO one was was seated, rather, EVERYONE decided to stand the entire show. We did not find out until the show ended that many of the performers the girls wanted to see has performed earlier at the "Summer Village". This should be explained to newcomers next year because I technically paid for floor seats to see HALF of the performers advertised. The only reason I am giving a generous rating of 3 stars versus 2 is because the graduates had fun.
Pro: Tribute to DJ Slay was excellent, to include the surprise performers!
Con: Unfortunately, many of the performances and performers were plagued with sound issues. I was willing to overlook many of the issues that plagued an other wise decent concert until the end of the show came and there was NO BURNA BOY! Nothing was mentioned and many audience members were visibly upset. The smell of weed was INSANE! The $40 parking cost should be explained in the Ticketmaster details. Food was not easily assessable.
