Okay, I'll defer to your $500,000 sound system experience.

Are you suggesting that maybe they booked DJ Jazzy Jeff expecting some Winger cover songs? "She's only seventeeeeeeeeeeen, Daddy says she's too young but she's old enough for me!"

Probably. They could have walked off in a huff, been too proud to come back on, and then they have to cover themselves. "They kicked us off for playing hip hop..."

Sorry, but that doesn't wash. Like what they wanted was for the show to end early and have an angry crowd on their hands and a mountain of bad publicity. They aren't idiots. They have nothing to gain by doing that.

By the way, this would be funnier if they had thrown him out of KC Live like Uncle Phil used to throw him out of the front door.

probably just a case of people complaining for the sake of complaining. P & L and DJ JJ etc.

LMAOLMAO

Yes it's much more plausible to assume he booked Jazzy Jeff and then after he had people in the club and the show started decided he didn't want any hip-hop music being played.

Okeydokey.

Obviously it was a grand racial conspiracy this guy took weeks setting up, just to get at the wildly famous DJ Jazzy Jeff.

Cordish didn't book Jazzy Jeff.
I know the promoter who did...personally.

Oh Blaise...
You're always so misinformed.

Again...
Cordish DID NOT book Jazzy Jeff.

And apparently had no idea who would be playing there either. I don't go down there but someone let me know if they ever play Rhianna or Jay Z music. If they play them on other nights then it pretty much blows Jazzy Jeff's argument to hell.

why would the book a crap dj and if they didn't want that style music

Not 5 minutes ago you were certain that Cordish had personally booked DJJJ for the KC Live performance. I'm sure now you're certain that Cordish officials were aware of who Jeff Townes was and what his playlist would comprise. Got it.
:rolleyes:

KCL typically does not entertain Rap acts of ANY kind.

If his name as George Smith would thay have booked him...or thrown him out?

and another thing, Power and Light. Is there a power plant there or something? Do they have tours?

KC Power and Light bulidng downtown ...14th and Baltimore.

My mom worked at IBM across the street for 30 years

Since there's so much speculation in this thread how about this angle....

P&L booked the act knowing exactly what they were getting and upon hearing about all this so called racial profiling going on Jazzy J and his posse decided to pull this stunt to try and stick it to the white man knowing the bad press it would create.

Either way I could give 2 shits,I don't much care for the place except that Gordon Biersch brew pub,damn tasty beers there.

yeah I don't actually know I am just throwing passing dumb comments. I would defer to MicJones he seems to be the most plugged in. on a tee/
