Lauryn Hill Tour Dates (3 Hours Late Each Gig) [img:$uid]http://i52.tinypic.com/2qwmvrr.jpg[/img:$uid]
December 10, 2010
Following her performances as part of the "Rock The Bells" festival, Lauryn Hill is scheduled to play two more shows in the coming weeks, including one at the Music Hall of Williamsburg and Bowery Ballroom.
In addition to those dates, Hill will be performing in Boston, Mass., and in Miami, Fla.
The full tour schedule is listed below:
Dec. 20: Boston, MA (Wilbur Theatre)
According to brooklynvegan.com, Hill was also recently scheduled to make an appearance in Burlington, Vermont, but those plans have already changed twice. The concert was originally set for Dec. 15, but then changed to the 17, and now it's been postponed indefinitely. [Edited 1/20/11 9:46am] | |

With record sales in the toilet, especially catalog sales - Miss Hill needs some live concert $$$$$. With wretched winter weather that started in late fall - bad time for touring. Music Royalty in Motion | |

Lets see how many of these dates come off without incident and drama, a friend was talking about going to one of the NYC shows, forget which one, just know tix were $65, but i told her, dont be shocked if some incident happens, sound, drama, excuse. Shit freaking Fiona Apple still owes me a show from when she walked off "citing sound" problems, no one ever got money back on that.

Friend says he went to the New Haven show and she was almost 3 hours late! He actually left! Y'all think she's THAT good? For real? I know---I'm missing something. I would be so pissed if I waited that long for someone that I probably couldn't enjoy them no matter how good. Never trust anything spoken in the presence of an erection.

I am guessing Doors at 8pm, Show at 9pm, but it didn't start until midnight. That's kinda how most (other acts') shows go. | |

There were reports of her starting a recent Vermont show nearly 3 hrs late. | |

She's established a pattern that's sure to discourage fans from buying tickets.Three hours is too much. | |

I love Lauryn and wanted to see her live, but the reviews from fans on Tickmaster.com have been HORRIBLE overall. All the reviews have said that she's at least two hours late to every show and doesn't even have an opening act. Just a DJ who plays for the 2+ hours before she decides to show up on stage. The reviews also say that the band is too loud and overpower her vocals. Many people also complain that when she played her "hit" songs, the arrangement was completely different and virtually unrecognizable now. After reading the same negative reviews over and over, I decided not to waste my money. Maybe if I could see her for a reasonable or cheap price, but i'm not wasting 100+, or whatever it is, to see her with amidst all these terrible reviews. She's been unstable and unpredictable for years. Sorry, I'll pass this time.

I think it's the stage lighting. | |

The problem is that "most" acts don't keep the audience waiting 3 hours. The next problem is that once she shows, folks say that she's not that good anymore and not worth the wait. I ain't mad at cha if you like her that much or even if you just want to be her apologist. Never trust anything spoken in the presence of an erection.

Yes MisEducation is a great cd-still listen to it today, but the lady is not that great. Hoping the new cd is good though.

Listen to this and then offer a major mea culpa for believing dumb internet rumors. | |

"Sorry if you had to wait a few minutes or a few hours,” the radiant, yet defensive Lauryn Hill said on Tuesday night (Dec. 28) as she approached the intimate masses during a tour stop at Brooklyn’s Music Hall of Williamsburg, “but I personally think I’m worth it.”
