just got back from Q's show in SF. Hella disappointing. Dude prefaced the show by saying he doesn't know the words to the new music. On top of that, he was saying all the traveling he's been doing has messed up his voice and apologized hella times for not being able to perform songs all the way through. He was letting the vocal track do the work most of the night. He spazzed on the DJ a couple times for dropping in on the wrong beat. He said he was getting tired...then the DJ threw on mad city and let that entire song rock while Q took a break.
He spent a gang of time between songs asking the audience what they want to hear, which was cool, but sometimes he'd let 2-3 minutes go to waste between songs. There was no setlist, so a lot of time was spent with him talking to the DJ off mic figuring out what songs to do next.
The crowd wasn't really feeling it, and the energy in the room just felt flat.
At the end he let us all know that this was the warm up tour before he goes on a "real" tour in september. : \
I've seen him in the same venue before oxymoron dropped and that was an amazing show, so it sucked to see just an overall weak show from him tonight. He just didn't seem ready for game time.
Album is dope though.
