For me - great show - still no clean hands clean heart vamp in final hour boo - but I can live with that. One more show for me this tour and then looking forward to what she does next time I hope she does an acoustic set one day with all the unreleased gems: I had to walk, guarding the gates, damnable h, the world is a hustle etc - and so e if the lesser performed released tracks - social drugs, peace of mind, selah, loose myself

Supermoonface I agree! I love how she changes the show. Gets me excited to see what she might do and what songs and covers she might do. Just think people who do not follow her and are not bigs fans go to concerts thinking it will be like the album. True, us diehard fans know what she will do so is no surprise to us. How many shows from thIs tour have you seen supermoonface? What one are you seeing this weekend? Sounds like you have been to quite a few gigs of hers over the years. I have seen her in 97 with fugees, 1999 on the miseducation tour, 2012 and I saw her on Saturday and got meet and greet tickets for Sunday? Would have liked to have seen in London in 2005 and 2007 and when fugees did london concert 2005 but tickets sold out by time I tried to book them.

Hi Lauryn1982, on this tour I have seen her in Paris, the first Brixton date and Manchester. I am off to the Brooklyn Bowl gig on Sunday, I have meet and greet tickets too I was a big fugees fan back in the day, lol we used to take the Score cd to our local alternative night where the dj would play virtually anything. Loved the bootleg Clark Kent remix of Ready or Not. Great nights, music ranged from Nirvana to Prodigy to Nina Simone to Dianna Ross, a right hodgepodge Then Miseducation came out and I loved that album. The original version of Ex-Factor is still one of my favourite songs to put on when it's nice and sunny and you wanna chill, that laid back old soul vibe just oozes sunshine. Then Unplugged aired MTV which I taped on a crappy old VHS and me and my house mate at the time loved it. After unplugged didn't hear anything about Lauryn for quite some years till the fugees reunion. Saw her in 2005 in Manchester with fugees but missed her solo shows and really stopped checking for news. One night I came across a you tube video of the Sinnerman / Final Hour mix and was blown away by the music. It sounded incredible. So I then did some serious googling. It was so much fun discovering all the remixes and unreleased songs. I missed the 2012 shows boo - loved those versions but when this tour was announced I was ready ha ha ! Lauryn's approach to music fits me like a glove I hope she never stops keeping it fresh. I have been exposed to a wide variety of music from Bhangra to Qwali to flamenco to classical which all feature extended pieces with multiple movements and tempo changes and Lauryn blends and blurs these generes with modern styles perfectly. it's not everyone's cup of tea but it sure is mine.
