Thread: Light it up Tour versus Double Up Tour

which tour is better overall and the better selections of songs and medleys? what show had the best pacing and overall vibe to you and why??

The light it up tour was good, but I did not know what that being soooooo very late was all about. But over all it was a good as tour. This double up tour is well put 2gether, and he was on time (yeah!), probably b/c he have alot on his mind. Kelz vibe off of the audience and that depends on if he delivery a powerful performance, or just give a dam good show. I love all of his tour even the best of both world even when left the garden (madison) early, yes I was there! I like the tp2.com tour (smile). While at the double up tour I love the pic of him when he was young, and he even shared pic of his children special.

I liked them both, but if I had to chose one, I'd vote for Light It Up Tour. I liked the smaller more intimate setting. I'm just not a fan of arena tours, too big, need fireworks, several bigscreens,etc. There was some definate overlaps in snippets, etc from LIU that appeared in Double Up tour. I wasn't interesting in other acts either. But he's a business and big arena tours probably make him more money, although most shows have not been sold out and the money gets split more ways and the Double Up set was more elaborate than LIU a probably cost more. Just my 2 cents.

I voted for the Light it up, don't get me wrong but I enjoyed them both, but when it comes to Kells I prefer to see him on tour alone. I feel like Mista, I'm not a fan of arena tours either. The light it up tour seemed to be more on a personal level a sort of reach out and touch his fans feel to it, and also it was drama-free.

That's what I said in my DC review. I loved it since it is my first R. concert and had to travel to get it, but I could tell the order of the songs or snippets. I didn't went to LIU, but by watchign the dvd I could tell that I would had prefer go to LIU than DU.

bump..............

I too enjoy seeing Kells no matter what so I enjoyed both shows....but LIU was hands down the best. It was more personal and Kells sang more of the slower and mid tempo songs....even when he put in the past cuts it wasn't over kill. This tour could have been better if Kells would have sang a little longer on the slower songs, cut down the skit for zoo a little and did some of the slower songs from Double Up and Chocolate Factory...I would have loved to see more diversity in mixing all the slow cuts from his entire catalog.

I like them both. My Richmond experience was 100% better than my Baltimore experience. I like the closeness of the Light It Up Tour so I chose that as the better tour but the special effects, skits, and dance routines were great for the DU tour!

I went to both tours and in my city (little rock,) they were both held in the exact same place an arena, I actually believe that there were more people at the Light it up tour, i enjoyed it more b/c as the others said it focused more on him and his slow cuts and wasn't all the extra shabang, i must say the double up had a very elaborate set-up...(stage-wise) and the J.holiday and Keisha cole didn't really do anything 2 add to it

The "Light It Up Tour" was really good. The crowd was so into his music, and him. It's like we got a chance too get a little personal with him. When their is a huge crowd, you can't reach out too him as much. The crowd wasn't as large. Either way, he is a damn good entertainer. I mean everything was on point. Sexy Ass! I think that was my FAV...Hands Down!
