Mos needs to start doing something to get paid so he doesn't have to charge $60 for a show. Try an album more than once every 4 years. Not to mention, we're hungry for that anyway.

yea why are his ticket prices always so damn high. the brooklyn shows a few months ago were $85 a ticket!

Um... I think Mos is doing just fine on the $$$ front -- ever seen, I dunno, "Italian Job", "Hitchhiker's Guide", or "16 Blocks", just to name a few?
Which further begs the question as to why his ticket prices are astronomical.

how about making a GOOD album? THEN charge that much. dont get me wrong he is a great performer and has written some good music, but not in YEARS.

True. Last album was pretty poor and New Danger was nowhere near as good as BOBS.
I'd consider paying $60 for a Mos/Talib double bill, doing their respective solo stuff as well as BS stuff, but as it stands, this is extortion.

highline has such a sick lineup
glad to see another venue in town doing good music
hope the room is as nice as the booking

your silly, all of you, silly
your not listening close enough
mos has surpassed the label of hip hop
said label wouldn't have allowed some of the sick songs he's created post "Black on Both"
dude straight tried to reclaim rock on the second joint
and quite frankly I'm happy to even have true magic- so tru, price tag is OD, but hey- he's a commodity.
If you cant see that - don't come to concert :)
peace peace
