Everyone on this thread is correct. Macklemore
was so good and Kesha stright up sucked. After
Macklemores show I told my gf there was no way
Kesha could follow that. I was right. Idk Kesha
killed the mood with her opening song FU cussing
and her tinny bop high speed voice. If I read these
reviews before the show I would have known to
leave right after Macklemore.

AWESOME
This show was amazing!!! Macklemore was
hilarious and brought so much energy and
had everybody dancing. Kesha was also
awesome! I dont know why all the reviews
say such bad things about her she did not
seem drunk at all and she brought the
energy and sounded great! She was cute and
funny and voice was beautiful. Amazing
night really wish I could do it all over again.

5 STARS FOR MACKLEMORE 0 FOR KESHA
Macklemore was out of his world amazing I
liked him but now LOVE him. He put on an
amazing show, high energy, crowd
interaction and sounded exactly like albums
and radio. Kesha was awful we ended up
leaving she seemed drunk or high as a kite
and on some really good stuff. I love her
albums or on the radio bit wish I never saw
her live. It was painful to watch we made it
to her "fake last song" as she called it and
then decided we couldn't take anymore. I
had gotten the tickets for free as a result of
the LiveNation settlement and thankfully
Macklemore was worth it cause Kesha was
just a major disappointment. She's ruined
glitter and jellyfish for me lol.

PHENOMENAL
Honestly, I dont know if its because
im such a hardcore kesha fan but. I
think she was awesome & brought
me to tears because I love her & her
energy & her quirkyness and I dont
understand how people are so
disappointed woth her but she was
awesome. Macklemore too & they
both did amazing!!

MORE MACKLEMORE! - KESHA, YOU'RE RIGHT. THIS PLACE DID BLOW.
Never heard of or saw Macklemore before but he has converted this heathen to a believer! All the energy, theatrics, crowd interaction, great anecdotes, and knew how to relate to the home turf (by his own admission he played Schuba's six years ago?!)
Kesha was a disappointment from the moment she took the stage with a can of Pabst. Nothing sounded like her albums (why am I here?), swore at every other word (yawn), spitting that piss beer on her fans (?), spending way to much time talking about the clothes she's been accumulating (??) and somehow managed to make "Jolene" boring? Kesha's set rocked me hardest when the house lights came up and "9 to 5" came on. There is an Internets worth of GIFs to describe how shitty Kesha was. Go find one you like.

5 STATS FOR MACKLEMORE. 2 FOR KESHA
Seems every city had the same experience.
Macklemore was INCREDIBLE! So much
energy, audience interaction, his talking
between songs was hilarious, there were
songs I had never heard before and found
myself immediately loving... No complaints!
Kesha was different than expected. I'll admit
I do not know much of her new stuff but a
friend who does said that didn't really sound
the same either but all her old stuff was
played differently and hard to dance around
to which was what I really looking forward
to- a lot of people starting leaving during her
set and the energy from the crowd just
wasn't there, which is a shame because she
closed with Praying and TIk Tok which were
both very well done and redeeming.

AWESOME SHOW
We purposely missed the opening act, but Macklemore and Kesha were fantastic - even in the hot, hot weather. Mackelmore was funny, entertaining and high energy. Kesha was also fabulous belting out hit after hit. I do agree she could limit the F word in respect to her younger fans ( didn't bother me much), but her show was full energy - everyone in my group thought the show was great!

LOVED MACKLEMORE
I’ve always been a really big Macklemore fan
and my god was I not in the slightest bit
disappointed. He’s absolutely amazing and I
will 100% pay to see him again. I could’ve lived
the rest of my life without seeing Kesha
though. She acted and talked very weird. It was
like an annoying girl who tries too hard and her
cussing made her seem like a 6th grader trying
to fit in with high schoolers. Her songs sound
nothing like the ones she records and her Dolly
Parton cover was a disgrace. If they ever tore
together again it needs to be Kesha first
because Macklemore was ridiculously good.
Loved Macklemore but not Kesha from Los Angeles, California
5 STARS FOR MACKLEMORE 1 FOR KESHA
Macklemore put on a fabulous show! He was
energetic and had the fans on their feet the
entire time. Kesha didn’t come out until 10:30
and it was a huge disappointment. Her us of
the f-word was so over the top that it became a
classless performance. I was really hoping to
just hear her incredible vocals but her overuse
of profanity took away from her performance
and we ending up leaving after 30 May utes
into her set.
Jesse from Hershey, Pennsylvania
MACKLEMORE GREAT- KESHA UNDERWHELMING.
I'm so glad Kesha played before
Macklemore. She was very
disappointing. Her stage was set up
so that it seemed very busy whereas
Macklemore's stage was very
cohesive. Kesha didn't interact or
engage the crowd very well. Her
constant cursing was distracting at
times. I personally think her volume
levels were not right- her voice was
hard to hear at times over the music.
There were a few times I wasn't even
sure if she was singing. Her costume
changes also got distracting. I didn't
understand the short videos she
played in between.
Macklemore on the other hand was
amazing! From the very beginning he
commanded the audience. He was
able to interact and really get the
crowd excited. His volume levels
between his voice and the rest of the
music seemed spot on. He was
definitely the headliner here and
provided an entire experience vs just
playing a bunch of songs. The
transitions for his costume changes
had meaning and made sense.
I would definitely pay to go see him
again!! Not her.

GREAT SHOW
I don’t know, but I suspect that the first
reviewer is reviewing a show from a different
city. Macklemore DID show up and he totally
brought the energy, put on an awesome
Show. Kesha did 15 songs, not 5. She wasn’t
drunk and she forgot one line of one song. I’ll
agree with the others that while I’m not
bothered by cursing, hers was a crutch - too
much. Her show, we’ll, it was a big show.
We were there to see Macklemore, and wow
did he ever deliver! Very interactive, super
high-energy, so entertaining!
Hilary from Los Angeles, California
MACKLEMORE BROUGHT THE ENERGY KESHA BROUGHT COSTUME CHANGES
There is nothing more to say than Macklemore came
to rock out and put on a show and that is what he did
regardless of the tempo. Keshas costume changes
while awesome brought the engery down and lasted
far too long. If the pace of her show was different it
would have been upgraded from good to awesome.
Luke from Los Angeles, California
UNLESS YOU LOVE KESHA, STAY HOME
The opening act, Wes Period, killed it.
Macklemore was phenomenal as usual. But
there’s over an hour delay between
Macklemore and Kesha, almost fell asleep. This
is a Kesha snooze fest, not a Macklemore
adventure.
Kelly from Detroit, Michigan
MACKLEMORE WAS AMAZING POOR KESHA SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN WASTED.
Why in heavens did Macklemore
open for her and not the other way
around? She couldn't stop cursing
and she seemed really messed up. I
hope she gets back on the sober train
cause girl we noticed! Holy hell
Macklemore was amazing though.
Wanted more.
MD from Toronto, Ontario
STAY FOR MACKLEMORE, LEAVE FOR KESHA
Macklemore killed it, no complaints about him. I would pay good $ to see him preform again. Amazing energy, engaged the crowd- amazing presence. Kesha though- really disappointed. She was over sexual which was not necessary. She wouldn't start a song until she received fan's clothes on stage. And apparently shirts weren't enough, she demanded bra's on the stage. Like pardon? Is that necessary? After she demanded bra's on stage, we left the concert (and didn't regret it). Also, Kesha live sounds nothing like she does on her records, so if you like her records, just stick to those.
Crystal K from Denver, Colorado
KESHA MACKLEMORE PEPSI CENTER
The concert did not last long McLemore did not show
Kesha sang about five songs appear to be drunk
stumbled on stage and forgot the lyrics to her own
songs waste of money waste of time very disappointing
Concert started at 7 and was over by 9:15 to me it's a
total rip-off for the price you pay when you pay to see
two stars and only get one it's a shame never again will
I go to the Kesha Macklemore event
