I'll go unless he is of the GZA calibre. Thoughts?

Ghost is very Solid live. When i saw him with Raekwon he was sick. Did wildflower acapella, daytona 500 of course, nutmeg and more.

yeah he's good

if the crowd is into it he's fire

if the crowd is not into it he gets mad at the crowd which is also very entertaining

Go. I'd pay to hear him talk for a half hour.

enjoyed both shows i've seen...even when he played to a ultra pasty crowd in amherst that was still a good show.

Ghostface and Method Man are by far the 2 better live performers from the Wu.

I've seen him with the Wu-Tang, where he stood out as much more charismatic and engarging than the rest (save Meth).

I've also seen him solo backed by the Theodore Unit. He was great, but the Theodore Unit were pretty forgettable.

Ghostface is always worth seeing live.

Acapella version of "The Forest" done in a completely deadpan style > your life

I have seen Ghost live like 5 times or so. He is always good live. Never seen him do a bad show.

Ghostface & Rakim with the Rhythm Roots All-Stars was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Up there with De La, Dres, and 9th Wonder at 1223 and The Coup at the Black Cat.

And at the show that Ghost put on the year before that him and Trife KILLED "Biscuits." This longboarder was jumping around singing the chorus. fun times.

fuck around and be a statistic son. holla.

I got to cross it off my list.

definitely go see ghost live.

even a sean wiggs appearance can't ruin a ghost show.

First time I saw him was when he was on tour for Supreme Clientele. Then a week later he came back to Pittsburgh and opened up for Red and Meth on the Blackout Tour. Great week of shows for me.

I'm seeing him in Amsterdam in 10 days. Good to hear he's live live.

He's shite. Seen him 5 times. Always came away disappointed. He even managed to balls up Only Built For Cuban Linx.

Saw him one with the late Menace To Sobriety with Thoedore Unit. Sweet Jesus. Appalling.

co-signed. saw GFK in philly last year with Brother Ali and Rakim. Ali rocked it as usual, then GFK spent 2 fuckin hours on stage doing a lot of off-key singing, mostly talking to the crowd, and only a few notable classics. his crew rapped and one of them messed up his 48 bar verse halfway through and started the entire thing over. maybe i was just too anxious to see Rakim, but very disappointed in GFK.

I heard after his recent London show he was selling t-shirts from the stage; he didnt even have some weed carriers at a merch stand.

not a good look really.

I went to see him in Amsterdam few weeks ago.

He didn't have time to perform songs like Daytona 500 but he did have time to dance with girls, invite three dutch rappers on stage to spit and do a 10 minute sing-a-long karaoke thing where he sung along to Gnarls Barkley's Crazy among other as relevant pop tunes.

Saw him with Rae and he was the shit.... How anyone could hate on him is beyond me.. by far the best from the Wu

havent seen a Ghost solo show but seen them as a group a couple of times and Meth is the standout live performer. Shame his solo catalogue isnt as strong as GFKs though
