Nas Reveals The Jones Experience Tour Dates

Tuesday July 22, 2008

Nas is ready to take his message to the streets this Summer. Following the official release of his Untitled LP, Nas will embark on The Jones Experience Tour to promote the album. In between appearances at the Rock the Bells Tour, Nas will go on a 21-city trek visiting mostly clubs and theaters.

The Jones Experience tour kicks off today (July 22) at the Metropolis in Montreal. From there, Nas will travel to Atlanta, New Orleans, Las Vegas, Houston, Detroit and Chicago, before wrapping up Sept. 5 at First Avenue in Minneapolis. Supporting acts for The Jones Experience tour include: like Talib Kweli, Jay Electronica and DJ Green Lantern.

As I previously reported, Nas will also perform at the 2008 Rock the Bells festival, which launched July 19 at the First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre in Tinley Park, Ill. Also appearing on the 10-date traveling hip-hop festival are A Tribe Called Quest, Mos Def, De La Soul, Rakim and the reunited Pharcyde, among others.

Here's the tour schedule for The Jones Experience Tour.

Wow, this is a good website for info on hip hop. Hey Henry do you know anything about a
Nas and Lil Mama collaboration? Also was wondering if you have any inside information on the new Eminem, King Mathers thing? People like Bishop Lamont and DJ Premier have been saying that Em is producing some amazing stuff like his earlier work. That’s what I read on the web atleast.

Drat, my mom said I can’t go to his show in STL.

Henry, if Nas did a collaboration album with one rapper, who’d you want the other rapper to be?

I say a Nas + Common album would be historical, not to mention inspirational.

I had the pleasure to go to my second Nas concert at the Music Farm in Charleston, and I just want to say that if you haven’t been to a Nas concert you really need to go. It is the most exciting experience ever! This man performs every song you could possibly want to hear…and if your as big of a fan as me you should aim to get the front row experience as I did, it is really worth standing in line for. And Talib was quite awesome too, great tour!

and whats up Riz!
