Have you gone to a Wu Tang & Nas concert this year (or last)?

October 12, 2023 8:23 PM

I'm going to see the Wu Tang Clan & Nas "NY State of Mind" show soon, and my concert buddy is worried that they will go on at midnight, per their experience at hip hop shows in the past. If you have seen them on this tour, about what time did they take the stage and what time did the show end?

My thinking is that we are all middle aged people and even Wu Tang Clan doesn't want to stay out all night anymore. I've read a few concert reviews that seem to imply they begin to take the stage around 9pm or shortly thereafter?

Best answer: Not personal experience with either artist, but Setlist.fm indicates that most of their shows (those that they have info) for have been doors at 7, show runs til 11.

As you noted, they're getting older and also most venues now have some kind of curfew.

Best answer: At last year and this year’s shows, they’ve been on time and ending around 11. They’re old too now 😉

Best answer: I saw them on Tuesday. It was awesome, and very, very organised. I told my wife not to wait up, thinking I be getting a cab home in the middle of the night, but it was done in time to catch a bus home.
