So that was awesome. But it could have been way better. Hear me out: At first we had the opener Beginner Soundsystem (Beginner without Jan Delay) which where awesome and great fun for about 30 minutes. As it was only a bit over an hour (1:20 with Pause) you can clearly see that this Tour was not intended in the first place. There were only Festivals planned. And the concept is absolutely ok for that. Adding some Headline concerts with basically the same concept with just a few more songs and then sell it as a "Based on a true story" concert... that was ****ed up marketing. It was more a Best of Will Smith concert. And I liked every bit of it. But if they had marketed that as kind of best of Tour he def. would have sold more tickets. Frankfurt was only sold for about 70-80% is my guess. The prices are one thing (I paid 170. If I had waited, that was down to 120 In the end. Front Stage was 250 and then down to 110...) I don't know if it was an issue with the Festhalle but the Sound was veeeeery bad mixed. Way too much bass and constantly overdriven. This is in this case, not as bad as it could have been since Hip Hop is very bass-heavy, luckily. But it could have been a better experience nonetheless. The Setlist was mostly like DefCems. We had Hard Smile at the very end, A Bad Boys Mix and I believe a different opener but I'm not sure what it was. I loved the Avery part, but my seat was so bad I couldn't watch any of the scenes. Bad Stage design, but the worst part was: They didn't show it at the two smaller screens on the side... I also loved the Old School Hip Hop Part with a Breakdance Crew and everything. And I liked that he had a Band. It is much better than tape... Overall. It was, maybe not worth the 170..., but Im glad I finally could see him Live on Stage after all those years. I had fun, it was a nice crowd overall, mostly my age or even older (I am 37). But... I didn't needed the Translator lady. It was a nice gesture, tough for some older folks. If you can see him you should go. Who knows if we ever get that chance again. And here is the Merch. The Red Shirt is available in Black too. The Shirts are 45 and the Cap is 35. There is also a Bag for 25 with the same design as the black shirt.
