Lil Wayne A Now Show
Lil Wayne upsets fans by failing to show up at a landmark concert in the Bahamas.
The major event was to take place in Nassau on Friday, September 26. However, it is reported that while Weezy was in town, an altercation between the sound company, TK Productions and promoter Red City Entertainment, resulted in TK refusing to do the show and leaving the venue -preventing Wayne from performing, according to the press release.
Sources say the dispute began when TK had completed the entire set-up, but had not received the agreed upon payment before the start of the show. Witnesses saw the promoter then panic and offer to pay several thousand dollars more than promised. But after having given the promoters numerous opportunities to fulfill their professional obligations, the offer was refused.
Thousands of fans showed up at the venue, only to be turned away and asked to return for the show the following day.
Non-refundable tickets had been sold at $45 General Admin., $80 V.I.P., $200 Platinum, and an undisclosed amount in the thousands for Sky Box.
The show finally went down the next night, Saturday, September 27. It started at around midnight with over 10 local opening acts, and co-headliner Buju Banton took the stage, performing as promised.
Meanwhile, Lil' Wayne was announced throughout the night, riling the crowd in anticipation of his appearance. But by the end of the opening acts, the birthday boy was still a no show, leaving a slew of disappointed Bahamian fans.
