Dec 29, 2015 What does a Lupe set list look like these days? I saw him post-F&L/pre-The Cool so I never got to see him do stuff from the latter.
Dec 29, 2015 here's a recent concert in Chi-town http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/lupe-fiasco/2015/concord-music-hall-chicago-il-33f2ac6d.html looks like something i would really enjoy tbh.
Dec 29, 2015 Was just looking at this and it seems pretty Cool-heavy despite the amount of T&Y songs as well...hmmm, only $35 bucks. Might be kind of a crapshoot.
Dec 30, 2015 Of the T&Y songs, they are the ones I actually enjoyed.. Was a fan of Prisoner 1 & 2 as well as Dots & Lines. #NoShame $35 is a pretty good deal IMO. Paid $40 to see Vince Staples a few weeks ago, and only paid like $25 to see Kendrick and Chance like 4 years ago... So my opinion on worth of cost is probably a bit off. And yeah, can't go wrong with The Cool. Wouldn't mind seeing him do a concert of The Cool straight through. Same goes for F&L. That last song on the setlist tho.... Please NO
