On the Beat: David Menconi on music

News & Observer music critic David Menconi's random (and we do mean random) musings about all things related to music and culture of the "popular" variety.

Lil Wayne: Raleigh-bound, finally (we'll see)

Bookmark and Share

Well, here we go again. Rapper Lil Wayne has been announced as coming to the big shed in Raleigh on Aug. 8. But you'll forgive me for being a bit skeptical. Last fall, Wayne was supposed to play Raleigh's RBC Center on Halloween night -- and the show was canceled with no explanation. He wound up playing in Greensboro and Charlotte instead.

In any event, tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m.
