With most co-headliner tours, it's hard to find one with two top-notch quality acts. But the current Nelly, TLC, Flo Rida tour is a an ultra-rare treat: a triple-headlining bill where all three acts still kill it. The tour came to Charlotte's PNC Music Pavilion on July 26th and we had to be there!



Nelly was the final act of the night, but to call him the headliner would be a disservice to TLC and Flo Rida. The crowd had been loud all night long, but the moment Nelly came out on stage, they raised the noise level about 20 decibels and never stopped until the end of his show. Nelly put on a great show and hit all the big ones -- "Ride Wit Me," "Dilemma," "Just A Dream," and, of course, "Hot in Herre."



TLC was the second act to perform that night and while the show had a small pall of remorse about it because I kept wanting to see Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas commanded the stage. They had the crowd dancing through favorites like "Unpretty," "Creep," and "No Scrubs," before delivering a powerful set-closing rendition of their best song, "Waterfalls," which included a tribute to Lisa and featured her rapping her verse. It was an extremely powerful way to close their show.



But for me, the concert belonged to Flo Rida. Maybe it was the fact that he was my favorite going into the show, maybe it was the fact that he played hit after hit after hit after hit (seriously--you almost forget how many hits the man's had), or maybe it's because he surrounded himself with four scantily-clad dancers. Whatever it was, Flo Rida came out, quickly took control of the crowd, and set the stage for the entire night. He performed "GDFR," "Club Can't Handle Me," "Low," "Wild Ones," "Whistle," "My House," and "Right Round." See? The man has had a huge number of awesome hits! The crowd loved them and so did I!

  1. I see I'm not the only one that likes neon signs and road side architecture and loves Flo Rida.
