The crowd sucked, it looked like no one gave a shit that it was their first show in ten fucking years, I'm sure that's why it started getting weaker as the show progressed. Hopefully Andre isn't like this the whole tour
I've noticed in my time here that LA just seems to have much more subdued crowds as a whole at shows. Not necessarily worse, but just a lot less energetic. Coachella is obviously no exception, but in the last 2 years I went to each weekend and I felt the crowds were much better when I went weekend 2.
In what way was that a botch job outside of Future and them being cut off?
Did Andre care?
Honestly he sounded upset that the biggest music fest in america couldnt give him a decent sounding mic.
I will say though, In many ways I've always liked Big Boi more than andre since Aquemini onwards. Big Boi brought it tonight and you could tell he was trying to hype up Andre the whole time. All I know is at Big Guava me and Son of a Beek will be goin so hard in the front row that they wont have to worry about a shitty crowd.

Weekend 2 crowds were so excellent last year, every set had a great crowd. I remember being nervous after watching The Stone Roses and Blur on the webcast but the crowds were great and the bands were much better as a result.

The mic wasn't the issue. It was a problem sure but he obviously didn't give a fuck.
Just think how little effort Andre will give to these smaller fests.
Thats a bit unfair, it started off really really strong. Big Boi was on it, he sounded fantastic.
Of course big boi was on it. He always is. He's the reason this tour is happening.
you know what Im gonna fall back and agree with this and return to my plot point of big boi being the most underappreciated rapper ever. Everyone is always ZOMG 3 Stacksssss.
Big boi wrote the hooks for some of there greatest songs (Rosa, Atliens) and has always wanted this reunion to happen. You know he always kept andres bs in check early on. The Love below is not good. Speakerboxx would have been another classic Outkast album if Andre would have just hopped onto Big Bois songs.

Agreed. I'll be front row trying to provide as much energy as possible. I'm extremely disappointed in how the latter half of the show went. I pray to god that it does over well when they don't have all the guests and shit to take away from them

As long as the crowd is crazy and theres no Future involved the show will be everything I ever wanted it to be... except for no Jazze Bell, but you cant win them all.

I don't understand what this has to do with anything? Coach isn't in LA & to say that most people there are from LA is just not true.
Also, my phone isn't letting me "like" things for some reason, but KPowers, I'm going to rail for Forecastle if it kills me and I will be havig such a good time I don't care what the people behind me are doing....

I think he looked pissed. If we're talking about botch jobs, can't leave out the people running the show. Andre's sound was fucked up for the majority, they got cut off in the middle of Miss Jackson, and they got cut off at the end. Not saying he handled it well, but he did have a reason.

Great crowds are why I prefer Bonnaroo over Coachella. Coachella blows Roo out of the water when it comes to facilities and production, but Roo just seems to have crowds that are much more into the shows.

Honestly if you subtract the Future songs, the awful transition btw ms jackson and so fresh, and them getting cut off... this is still one of the best shows of the year. Future wont be at Big Guava or many other places, they wont get cut off at most venues, and they'll figure out other kinks. Im not really worried about it.

Killer Mike also will (probably) not be at Big Guava, or most other festivals. Unfortunately.

Didn't get to see the stream last night, but it's kind of amusing reading back over the past few pages and seeing the energy/enthusiasm go from sky high to what the fuck was that?
Hopefully they get things in line before the tour continues.
Man, I don't get all the Andre hate. What did everyone expect? He's always been a temperamental performer who needs a LOT of love from the crowd. He was clearly pissed but he still nailed his parts and added in plenty of hilarious Andre adlibs. He may not have been happy the entire show, but the poor guy has lost both his parents in the last couple months -- his father within the last few weeks. He's human and he's allowed to be honest with his feelings. He was frustrated at points, but he still put on a great, honest performance, and I have absolutely no doubts that at certain shows throughout this tour, the mix will be right where Andre is in the zone and those shows will be among the best in hip hop history. The show certainly had moments where they showed the full potential of this tour, and even with the show as it was, I thought it was fucking fantastic!!
