Timbaland

Timbaland was great and the light effects were awesome. But Honor Society did so well. I wish they could have played more songs. They are true rock stars!

Though the wait was long, it was worth it!!! I have loved Timbaland since The Basement days. His beats were incredible and he entertained for a very long time. He also showed much love to his audience. I love this genius and cannot wait to hear and see what he drops next. Thanks for a most memorable eve @ the H.O.B.

This concert was GREAT!!!! He did live beats, had good opening acts and a KILLER DJ!!!

I was expecting better beats than the ones he played. He was weak!!! Plus, he made us wait forever, even after his band was set up.....

The concert was great and the sound was excellent, but they didn't even open the doors until 30 minutes after the time stated. So the concert didn't really start for over an hour after. Plus there really should have been more than 10 tables for a venue of that size.

The opening band was great, but TImbaland's performance was off the hook. He's a great live entertainer. Since the venue was small, we were able to get really close to the stage. With all the special effects, it was definitely worth the cost and the drive. Only complaint: the doors didn't open on time.

even though he was sick i thought timbaland was great. i loved how he interacted with the audience and did both new and old songs. this was my first concert and i know ill never forget it!!(:

The stage set-up was awesome, and I give him credit for making amazing beats, but he's just NOT meant to perform... He's a producer. He was pretty awful.

I have seen Timbaland before and this concert just did not compare. It was awesome when he was performing his songs, but the 30 minute breaks within songs to talk about drinking and woman got a little too excessive. I hate to say this, but seeing Timbaland live in this tour made me lose a little respect for him.

I previously posted about how some of the people in my area were not hyped up for the event and how I felt Boston could have shown Timbo that we like to have a good time better than we did. However, I failed to describe in detail why this was such an amazing concert. Timbo gave us a little bit of everything. For one, I love that he is promoting other artists and helping them in their career. Obviously Petey Pablo has fallen of our radar, but everyone who listens to hip hop/rap remembers Raise Up and if you really think about it, you'll remember he also did Freek-a-Leek and Vibrate. Well Petey Pablo is coming out with a new album and Timbo gave him a chance to come back into the spotlight. I respect that. He also promoted the New England band The Honor Society, which I hadn't previously heard of, but they seem pretty chill. Not to mention his brother, Sebastian who definitely did his thing. I purchased one of his bags (had a t-shirt, posters, shorts, a pen etc) because he was cool. Well if you know Timbo, you know him as a singer, but you also really know him as a producer. When I picked up the latest album, Shock Value II, and heard he was coming on tour to Boston, I wondered what his show would be like...especially since he features so many other artists singing on his tracks. How was he going to perform those songs? Well Timbo delivered and then some. He cleverly let us hear a live band, see his talent as a producer and beat maker through cool visual effects and sound, and he worked the stage by singing his songs accompanied by a visual display of the featured artist singing their portion of the song on a large screen. Thanks to the musical genius of Timbo, this was an unparelled concert experience as far as the sound and visual effects are concerned along with everything Timbo did - again he showed us his beat-making side, his creativity, his singing, his promoting, his amazing ability to mix live instruments and beats and music from other artists...I could go on and on. Now, the several people around me who weren't there for Timbaland even though it was a Timbaland show (*scratches head perplexed*), well that's another story. I hope he adds more concert dates to his tour in the New England area so I can see him again (hopefully surrounded by people who don't suck this time)!

Solid show. I was under the impression that jaysean was going to be there when i bought the tickets but he wasnt :-(. Sebatian(timberlands new artist/brother) was entertaining he had petey pablo come out which was awesome. Honor society's set was fun, good energy. Timberlands band was amazing the guy on the drums was crazy with it so was the guitarist. Graphics were cool. over good concert had fun although it was lengthy 8-1130.

The show was ok, but I feel the energy was not up to par

Well, let me first start by saying that I am a huge Timbaland fan. I have been listening to his music and the music he has produced for other artists for years. When I found out he was coming to Boston, I bought my tickets the first day they went on sale. I have never been to one of his shows and I couldn't wait...I went straight from work with a friend. This could have been an even better show, but I have to say, Boston did not do Timbo a justice, at least the majority of the people in my immediate surroundings. I got there early and pushed my way up to the front. To my surprise, this area was not nearly as hyped up as it should have been. The people on the other side of the stage seemed to be having a really great time, but the people in the FRONT of the stage on my side did not seem to be there for Timbaland. They all rocked out for The Honor Society and knew all the words for every song, but then fell silent for the rest of the show, but stayed in the front!!! Nothing for Sebastian, nothing for Petey Pablo, nothing for Timbaland. I think it is absolutely great when opening acts are a hit with the crowd and people know their music even if they're not well-known and the opening acts were great, but let's not getit twisted. This was a TIMBALAND show! Don't stay in the front if (for some weird reason) you came to see someone else. Most of the people (little teenagers) in the front on my side were just standing there trying to look backstage at someone else they thought was going to be there, waving over and over to some random person in the back, the entire time Timbo was doing his thing. Whoever they thought was going to come out never came and their lack of enthusiasm for the main event brought down the entire front half of the stage. There were people around me that managed to push their way to the front who were there for Timbo, but were surrounded by a large group of people who suck. I even saw one girl in the very front tweeting stating "Timbaland, enough is enough, it has been two hours." WHAT?!! This is a Timbaland show! She stood in the very front in a place where someone who came to enjoy the music should have been. When he came to our side and asked if "we feel it," he meant it! Timbo wanted to give Boston an awesome show, he wanted us to feel the music. A few of us in the front were moving to the music and enjoying it, but when you look down and see people on their cell phones, standing still, looking backstage, ignoring the effort and energy you're putting into the music, it's just ridiculous! They probably made him feel like he was wasting his time and it's a shame for the people who really wanted to enjoy the show to its fullest. We didn't do him a justice. His energy feeds off of the crowd and he spent most of his time on the other side of the stage. I don't blame him in the least and still feel that he threw Boston an amazing show despite the lack of energy on one side of the stage. Parts of songs and beats that should have been replayed over and over again because the crowd was enjoying it so much and Timbo was feeding off of our energy and pleasure from his music instead just played once. I don't understand why certain people came to this show, or at least why they didn't move after they saw the part they came for. Bottom line - I regret that I didn't try to push my way to the other side; I just didn't think I would be able to get as close to the stage, but in retrospect I would have probably had a better time despite that. I live here, but next time I see Timbo, I will be travelling somewhere else to see what his show is really like when the people are hyped up for it. Sad that some people in Boston didn't show him a good time. That being said, there are a lot of people here who love him and his music and we hope this doesn't make him not want to return to our area. I'd certainly see him in Boston again, but I'm going to go to one of his shows somewhere else too.

He didn't come out for close to 2 hours after show time started - had a DJ there and opening act but they were pretty awful. I have seen Timbaland before with JT and he was amazing! Last night's show was tough to sit through. He sounded awful (although he said he had a cold) and then spent 20 minutes singing/talking to crowd about doing shots of Patron! With no end in sight of this monologue we decided to leave. Hope he puts on a better show on his next stop but in Boston he didn't bring it!

Timbaland didn't come on until 9:45. He made it through a couple songs but then spent about a half hour wishing random girls in the audience Happy Birthday. Then suddenly he disappeared and wasn't seen again. Maybe someone should stop him from drinking too much before a show.

Dont get me wrong, I love timbaland, and I had heard great things about his performances. When I think of Timbaland I dont really picture an amazing performer, but i figured it would be one big dance party.... NO. Timbaland was on from 9:30-11:30 and played... maybe 7 songs?? He talked, and talked, and talked, and talked.... and his DJ talked, and talked, and talked. It was the most anticlimatic event ever. He ended the show by playing a random song.... talked for 20 minutes. and then being like "k well im gonna leave now". He mentioned he had a cold, but it REALLY was the worst show I have ever been to. SOOOO disappointing. I actually left sad. No joke.... i'm mad!

Jay Sean was supposedly going to sing in the concert. But the only Jay Sean we heard was Honor Society singing Down for about 30 seconds. Otherwise, the concert wasn't bad. But it was a big disappointment that Jay Sean didn't sing.

Honor Society came out first and they rocked it! They were really good! Once they were over Timbaland's crew was setting up which to waaaaay to long. Then some random guy came out sebastian, he was cool he signed things and took pics. But the skinny rapper Rico was horrible. Finally Timbaland came out, he was okay I expected it to be better. I met honor society after that was sweet! I was there for honor society mostly anyway.

The show that Tim put on was fabulous other than the fact that the Norva was not prepared for such a hi-tech performance. They didn't even open the doors until 9:00 (the show was supposed to start at 9;00) causing the show to be delayed for over an hour. Tim had planned for many special effects that couldn't be displayed as intended but he made the most of it and sure did deliver. No special guest was there for the show but I got my ticket with the intention of only seeing him. He did promise that he would bring Justin back to Hampton Roads for a show - and I've got it recorded so he better keep his word!!

I had fun listening to the music but it certainly didn't feel like a concert. Timberland is great at making beats but he's not much of a performer or singer (uses auto-tune). I thought maybe there would be some guest artists to compliment his great production but no luck. It was all recordings. Sad.

This was my first time to go to any concert; and I was kind off dissapointed, I am glad my friends were there, so it was not too boring; I did not like the part that Timbaland came out on stage at 12 midnight, and I could bearly hear him, because it was not clear enough, i couldn't understand what he was singing. I wish there were more entertainment for people for this money. I hope next time will be better sorry :)

I really loved Honor Society! They are such an incredible band with amazing talent! I got to meet them after the show and they were super sweet! Timbaland rocked the house and kept the audience moving and singing way up until the end of the show :)

The show started over an hour late !!! The first preformer didnt even sing he just lip sinc... The 2nd group i had naver even heard of ...and for good reason. Poblo saved the first half !!! The main act was OK at best....the highlight was the DJ !!

Was expecting a concert, I should have known better... I love timbaland and all his beats but he is just a producer and shouldn't be on stage without the artist he made the songs for. Also it took two hours after the show was supposed to start for him to come out on stage.

Not at all what I expected! Thought it would be alot more fun than it was stood the whole time.. Show started an hour late... Not a great experience!

The event was supposed to start at 9pm nobody came on stage until 10 ...then it was a DJ Timbaland came onstage at 11pm for about 20 mins sang some mundane songs and left again...so no i don't think it was worth the money !
