Mos Def Tickets

Great performance, tremendous talent. However, the event didnt start on time and he only performed for about an hour........so it wasnt really worth the money in that sense. But overall it was a good performance, I wished he did more of his older songs but the ones that he did do were good though. I wished he rapped more sang less......but other than that he was great! Now for the venue I attribute the slow and mediocure service to the fact that they just recently opened and have not developed their flow yet, but the food and drinks like at any other theater over priced and not strong enough. So dont go there to get drunk, dont go there to get full and not spend a bunch of money. But the venue is BEAUTIFUL great atmoaphere imagine a mix between a lounge, club and ampatheater but aimed for audiences of color will be going back if a good show is in town and reasonable.

It was supposed to be a Gil Scott Heron tribute. Mos is good, the band was good. There was way too much chatter in the audience. I also think Mos should have played more of Gil's songs and mixed in more familiar songs like Winter In America, Spirits, The Bottle, Angel Dust. I think most people were expecting to or wanted to hear MD songs.

My review of this event was lackluster due to two main reasons. First, the event was suppose to start at 11pm but unfortunately began at 12:40 am. I am not sure what the circumstances were but I felt that someone at the Howard Theater could have informed patrons about the tardiness to allay the situation. Also, if you have a international star like Mos why wouldn't you play his music while patrons wait? I heard every other artists except for him-that blew me away!! Second, after waiting I anticipated some classics like: Sunshine, Ms. Fat Booty, Danger, Got, Brooklyn, Katrina Clap, or anything that would be well known by his fans but that wasn't the case. As a result, I was disappointed.

I've always wanted to see MOS DEF/Yasiin Bey in concert. He didn't disappoint... Great energy..

Loved the show it was really fun. The venue was amazing.

The show started late. Most likely because there was another performer before the Yasiin Show. It was a great performance. He came out and got right to business. He grooved to his own music the way each person in the venue would have done. The 3 piece band was fantasic. When Yasiin got on the keys....it was an absolute delight. I would definately see him again. Some seemed upset that he didn't do Ms. Fat Booty, but that song in particular did not fit with the set. It was very much a tribute to Gil Scott Heron...he did a fabolous job and I would definately pay to see him again. The venue was perfect for the set he performed. You could see the stage with a clear view from every seat. Very comfortable and not over crowded.

Dude was an hour late. Thank if for spending our money. Then spent 49 minutes singing before peacing out. That's right. 49 minute show, no opening act. The Howard is amazing yet I was they had opened more standing room. Kinda hard thinging of a sit down hip hop show. Yet then Mos only reall sang.

Peace Yasiin Bey.....Yo he had a hot show at The Howard Theater. Big up to his band. I could feel that he truly loved the great Gil Scot Heron. He rocked " Home is where the hatred is". The song is one of my personal favorite and Yasiin put his heart into that rendition, so I appreciate that one.

Great show! Only 2 things that was disappointing was 1 didn't Do miss. Fatbooty and the theatre seats and aisles where SO cramped made it tough to really wile out! Other than that show was great

Awesome show! He is a great performer! I would def see him again!

We just moved to Boston and this was our first time to Wilbur Theatre. We will definitely go back. We went to the show for the Bad Rabbits and they were fantastic. Mos Def and the opening act were also great. Was Most Def worth the hour long intermission? I guess... he is pretty amazing, but... come on, show a little respect for the fans.

Opening acts were great!! Very entertaining local bands which was awesome. After the second one was done, waited almost an hour looking at an empty stage and decided to leave. I'm older (40), my wife is younger (32). If I were in my 20's I probably wouldn't care. We have been following him since his early days, so were excited to see the show. I'm sure those who stayed enjoyed the show, he is a phenomenal artist. I didn't peg him for a diva, don't have that kind of patience anymore

Mos loves to perform and that always shines through. Plus, he did traveling man, which was dope. I only take off one star because he came out a little late and there was no dj or anything keeping the crowd going in between performers.

Mos puts his heart &soul into his performances.. truely amazing!

Mos is 100% in the moment and his show was an intimate experience with a nearly sold out crowd of true Mos Def fans. Love that he chooses venues where you can engage with him and his music no matter where you sit. His DJ's are exceptional and it was worth the 2 hour drive to attend. Great ambiance, music, flow, and who knew Mos could step and dance like he did.

I love Mos Def more then ever after seeing him. He is AMAZING!!!

I took my boyfriend to the show for his birthday. The opening acts were awesome! Especially Bad Rabbits. It was however quite annoying that for an 8 p.m. start time, Mos Def didn't hit the stage until 10:45. After the 2 opening acts there was almost an hour of waiting in the theater for him to hit the stage. During this time the lights came on and the there was some Afro Beat music playing in the background. By the time he hit the stage, neither one of us felt that his performance was worth the wait. Honestly we left feeling like we would have rather just seen a whole show by Bad Rabbits, which is sad because we are both HUGE Mos Def fans.

This was the first time I left a show. I love Mos Def and I saw him a few years ago in SF and loved the show. That was not the case this time. The opening acts, Moe Pope and Bad Rabbits were great. Then we had to wait an hour for Mos Def to come on. When he finally came on, you could barely make out a word he said and he spent a bunch of time dancing around to other peoples' music. He seemed wasted or something. There was definitely something wrong with the sound so I can't blame him for that but his performance was pretty bad and we left after the fourth or fifth song. My other friends left before he came on because they got sick of waiting. I saw a number of folks leave during the show. What a disappointment

Bad Rabbits(the opening act) was amazing. They got the crowd excited and dancing. The concert was going amazingly UNTIL Mos Def made us wait like an hour and a half for him

Mos Def was so good and the opening acts were very enjoyable, but it took over 1.5 hours for him to come on stage after the opening acts had removed their set. Also a lot of time was spent on 2 new songs whereas I would have just wanted to hear more.
