Jay-Z Rocks Out at All Points West

Last Friday marked the beginning of All Points West music festival held in NJ, and I was fortunate enough to attend.

Actually, I bought tickets only when I heard Jay-Z was headlining as a replacement for The Beastie Boys as MCA has been stricken by (treatable) throat cancer.

As an homage to The Beastie Boys, Jay-Z opened up covering “No Sleep Till Brooklyn.” That was a great great performance.

It rained all day, but luckily it stopped by the time the Yeah Yeah Yeahs performed, just before Jay-Z came out. He had the whole band and an Asian DJ with nerdy glasses on. Who is that?

Here is his complete playlist as I attempted to type on my iPhone will simultaneously jumping up and down during the songs:
