Tech N9ne

As one of the progenitors of the rapid-fire Chopper style of rap, it’s no surprise that Tech N9ne’s name derives from an iconic rapid-fire handgun. With four No. 1 albums on the Independent Albums chart and over 2 million record sales worldwide, Tech N9ne’s career has been characterized by a focus on collaboration to a degree unrivaled among his peers. In 2013 alone, Tech N9ne, née Aaron Yates, would collaborate with artists as diverse as The Doors, Serj Tankian, and Cee Lo Green on his 13th studio album Something Else.

We drove from Denver, Colorado to Kansas City, MO to see Tech N9ne 10/30/10 for one of the final shows of the Independent Grind Tour....and 9 hours of driving was long but the show was frickin amazing, I've seen Tech several times here in Colorado, and he and the rest of the Strange Music artists put on the best show I've seen. I don't know if it was the hometown love he was getting but it was just a very energetic and genuinely great show that I saw, soo much fun, Tech played for atleast 2 1/2 hrs, I'd drive 9 hours all over again to go to KC and see Tech :-)

Tech N9ne is one of my favorite bands but unfortunately they missed the mark this time. I don't know if im getting old but the speaker system was too loud and i think because of this, the words got muffled so i couldn't hear allot of the lyrics. My ears were still ringing a day later. I went to their show at the Granada in Lawrence and I thought that experience was much better. Also would have liked to hear more of their old stuff.

This being my first Tech concert, i didn't have any expectations. But it's TECH N9NE, right? its gotta be good. AND IT WAS. the opening acts were actually pretty good, but the wait in between the last group and tech's first song was loooong. but he made up for it for sure. all of my favorite songs from past albums were sung, even Big Krizz KALIKO WAS THERE!!! he did a couple of songs from Genius, which were all awesome. All in all, it was an amazing concert and i hope to see him again!!!!

Even though it was a small last minute show not on the original tour schedule Tech N9ne blew the crowd away. The atmosphere was absolutely incredible. Kriss Kaliko brought more energy to the stage then I ever though possible. Even if you aren't a huge fan of Tech N9ne or Strange Music this is still a show that can't be missed!

A++++ Slaughterhouse absolutely killed it, meet and greet was cool but needed to be more organized, too much pushing to get to the table

This show was slow to getting off. but once the local artists did there couple of songs, and glasses malone, and slaughterhouse came on this is when the party started happening! comin into the event i had no idea who slaughterhouse was. after this, they are outstanding as well. Tech N9ne Krizz Calico and kutt Kalhoun and big scoob came on one at a time as the stange music label. They were amazing the lights the sounds and overall a great performance! The theatre itself is really small. but it suited this show nicely! I had a hard time finding parking that wasnt 1 or 2 or 3 hour time limit. but i only had to park a block away; so its not a big deal. overall im definately going back!

Tech N9ne and Strange Music's shows are always a blast. So wild and energetic. They are great performers. The only thing i'd recommend for a change is to not have the music as loud as it is at the shows. If it was stepped down a little it would still be plenty loud. But its all good!

I'm not gonna write a lengthy review. If you ever been to a Tech N9ne show, you know it was off the hook. If you never been, you to make it a attending show priority to get to one! TECH N9NE!!

The opening acts while a little long in the tooth were good. Slaughterhouse is definitely coming up, Glasses Malone is tight. But the real deal is when Tech N9ne comes on, he is pure energy from the first bass beat. His MC looks like Lionel Richie (I always wondered what happened to him) Krizz Kaliko has amazing vocals live. Tech N9ne is easily the best rapper out today, live he is pure excitement, easy to see that he works his butt off to keep his voice clear and true and he loves his fans and it shows. I discovered Tech N9ne the same week that I saw his show and I am hooked. Easily one of the best shows I have ever been to. Kutt Calhoun is also excellent live as is Big Scoob (but keep your shirt on! Ahhh!)

This was my first Tech N9ne show but i own all of his albums and DVDs. This show was beyond my expectations. Between the sound and the killer light show I had a great time. Tech N9ne is the #1 independent rapper in the world. His show blew me away and would recommend it to anyone. Everyone was getting hammered and bouncing around and some girls even felt like showing off their goodies. Tech N9ne Rules!!!!!!

The TechN9ne show was just as i thought it would be, amazing. No other rapper puts on a show like Tech and his boys. I will go see Tech as many times as possible.

Love the T-nizzle ---although it was a small crowd of just over 300, Tech played as if it was 3,000

The show was pretty much trash until Tech N9ne and his crew came on stage....Tech, Krizz, & Kutt tore the roof off as expected. Happy Birthday Tech!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wished they'd just get on with the show, Glasses Malone and Scottie Stone were okay, even good for a couple songs in a row but this rap group Slaughterhouse was crap. I wanted to go to sleep just so that noise would quit pounding in my skull. Anyway by the time Tech N9ne took the stage my legs were too stiff to even really enjoy the crowd vibes- but I did stay in the Pit for "Einstein Tech N9ne" and I grooved a biti to "Ghetto Love".
