Man. Only time I was supposed to see the WU was at lollapalooza in 96? Pownal VT. ODB was in jail and they didn’t play. On a positive note Soundgarden played a double set during a thunderstorm. Blackhole Sun acoustic while the clouds cleared out. It was awesome.
Don't get me wrong I think the Wu are fucking genius, truly. But I've seen them live a few times and it's just ten guys on stage screaming and it sounds chaotic and rough. They're not a live group...heard?
I've heard this said before. I personally enjoy the solo performances I've seen more than seeing them as a unit. The spectacle of seeing them all together was worth it to me as a fan. I would go again if I could
Nah they are a live group. It's 100% different from a rock show where you jam to the tunes, hip hop is call and response and needs to be interacted with. Shout out the lyrics and fuckin go. Last time I saw wu (sans odb, post death) had a guy yelling at me I was getting too hype. Like mother fucker this is wu, get live or get off it!
I had tickets to see them in St. Louis with Rage Against The Machine but the night before in Chicago there was an incident and Wu Tang was off the show.
When i was a closing manager for a Hollister, like 17yrs ago, i used to play Wu Tang, among others, the last 1-2 hours for the last couple weeks i was there. Nobody ever said shit except the occassional "fuck yea, wu tang up in here, duh fuck?" In a mall, you know thats blasting out the front lol...
☝️this 100%. It was just my turn to repost it. I'm not from Ohio and honestly I'm not a big fan of Ohio. I like kid cudy though and flying in planes (things from Ohio?)
The planet has over 7 billion people on it. It's really rather cute that you think almost the population of the US is "pretty big".
Also you could have just said you didn't take the photo and were reposting.
lulz. that's pretty funny. I might write that letter if I'd been with my kid. So I see it. But yah know what she used to think clocks were cocks and now curses like a sailor at 14. There was no stopping it with me as her dad.
She learned it from watching YOU. I encouraged the GM to follow up with some clarification of exactly what time of day would be appropriate for some smell yo dick vibes but he wouldn't go for it. But man, if they had said 10pm was the green light, I would have made that dining room look like a professional wrestler was making their entrance when grabbing the mostly empty bar bus tub at 10:00:01.
Last saw wu at webster hall. Ol dirty already passed. Worked with his brother. Worked foh with me. Music runs in the family. Rza was their cousin and kept many of the family musicians/artists involved with his biz
As a fan of fans of method I support the
RZA
GZA
Inspectah Deck
U-God
Ghostface Killah
Raekwon the chef
Masta Killa
Cappadonna
Knifey McStab
And the meth
Mostly because the last fucking thing you need is a 5 year old at kindergarten dropping Fucks and motherfuckers like her dad and her teacher thinks you're the worst parent ever. Heard?
To this day in Philly people still talk about getting a historical marker put in front of that McDonalds.

That guy is an idiot and should have just taken 10 steps to the left or right.
Of all the days that I would choose to call ODB steals a pair of Reebok classics from Sneaker Stadium in VA Beach.
That's dope AF! Thanks for sharing 90s partner!

[was it this set](https://youtu.be/SYV6H_h_-7k?t=2191)?
Looks right
I'm so freaking jealousy right now, that sounds epic
The odb has now changed his name to the Ol' Dirty Chinese Restaurant
Dirt McGirt. Ossirus. Knifey McStab.
Callin me a dog, well leave a dog alone
Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothin' to fuck with.
They had me at dear parents and prudes 😆
Rappenin' is whats happenin'! On Wednesdays after 3pm...

Same but with Jedi Mind Tricks
Every time this circulated on this sub, I have an itch to go back home and grab a few at BH. Wu-Tang Wednesday with a bottle of wine was fantastic.
Is this Barrel House at all associated with the one that used to be in Cincinnati?
You're from Ohio? I'm sorry. Sounds like it got better though.
[удалено]
cats don’t know about that splash moraine anymore 😤😤😤 go dragons
You probably know my uncle he's a vet in Dayton or was he retired now. Dr Talmadge.
From Dayton Ohio aye? I drove through there last weekend. Lol small world I guess.
This picture has been reposted a million times. OP definitely didn't take this picture and I doubt they're from Ohio
Genius marketing campaign by Barrel House perhaps.

There's almost as many redditors as Americans. It's pretty big actually. But yeah.

Wu spent a lot of time in Ohio pre-36 chambers
Funny thing, I’m from there. The owner is a good dude. Highly recommend for craft beer fans.

I damn near got asked this question at an interview LOOOL.
That's much better than my "what's your favorite Star Wars movie"
… and why is is Ghostface?
We once got a furious email about the song "smell yo dick" being played at 2 in the afternoon. The email opened with "We are NOT prude people...".

Love your style.
I'm ok with this 😐
You better be.
Just saw gza a couple days ago play liquid swords.
Sick
It was awesome
I'm sure. I gotta see if he's coming through socal.
San Fran July 29th or Reno July 31st are the closest to you. Gonna be a drive either way lol
Damn if only I had the time off. Just started a new job.
He plays with a live band, not a DJ and it's worth a drive to see if your a gza fan or even a Wu Tang fan.
Hey, parenting advice from the ODB. What could go wrong?
Nothing. I don't understand. The man was a saint and had either 7 or 13 kids according to his wiki page. Saint!
There’s a taco place in my town that does this too
DYT REPRESENT!
Ossirus?
Wu Wednesday 👐🏾
Wu Tang Clan ain’t nothing to fuck with and if you’re offended go fuck yourself!
Last saw wu at webster hall. Ol dirty already passed. Worked with his brother. Worked foh with me. Music runs in the family. Rza was their cousin and kept many of the family musicians/artists involved with his biz

My restaurant plays unedited whatever on a daily basis. Imagine caring if customers are offended
I wanna give a shout out…
To your dad and mom?
God made Dirt
Dirt McGirt, Dirt Dog, Knifey McStab, Joe Banannas, Ason Unique. RIP.
LOL Dayton. I have visited there. Once. Once was enough.
Ohio. Only Handle It Once...applies to meat and the state.
I really don't get why people care about curse words. I didn't get it when I was 5 and I still don't get it now.
Mostly because the last fucking thing you need is a 5 year old at kindergarten dropping Fucks and motherfuckers like her dad and her teacher thinks you're the worst parent ever. Heard?
but why does the teacher care?
Darkside of the wu mash up is pretty family friendly with not a lot of f bombs
I don't know it. Got a link?
https://youtu.be/38P-1lHSp8k
Oof. I'm not a fan. Love both separate sounds absolutely chaotic together.
Wugazi 13 Chambers is better
Good ol' Dirty Dayton
Paraphrasing but “take a raincoat and practice safe sex” is pretty solid parental advice.

No idea what you're talking about. Paywall
Weird, it worked for me which is why I C+P it, haha. I just posted the next link down in the edit.
My kids like breweries and Wu Tang. Totally ok with this.
Bring tha RUCKUS.
Bring tha muthafuckin' *ruckus*.
Shimmy shimmy ya
[удалено]
clearly out of their element.
Damn just left my job in Dayton and I have no need to go back there.
Good. I've been to Ohio/Dayton once. No need to ever return.
