Jay-Z will kick off an extensive trans-atlantic tour tonight in our fair city of wind. Jay will take the stage at the House of Blues as part of the Samsung Summer Krush concert series. The tickets are not easy to come by, as Samsung has sporadically released free tickets via their website. Chances are, you didn’t win any…I did though, so I’ll be in the house tonight to catch the set. If you’re not in Chicago, you can check the rest of the tour dates below. In other Jay-Z news, BP3 is now available in-stores and online (legally available online) as leakage has made the record label move Jay’s release date to today, so much for historical release dates…Anyway, check out the tour dates below, and holla at me if you’ll beat the House of Blues tonight.
