Open Mike Eagle

Open Mike Eagle and Serengeti's project 'Cavanaugh' features beats quite a bit harsher and more industrial than most of their previous individual solo projects, but it still sounds great. Serengeti seemed quite nervous (at least at times), but Open Mike was obviously supportive and the tracks from their joint project worked well. Because those tracks aren't a whole album's worth, they then did tracks from their individual back-catalogues (e.g. 'Qualifiers' from Open Mike, and 'Dennehy' from Serengeti). I was thrilled when they launcehd into the latter, since it's one of my favourite raps, but the version they did came across (to me, anyway) as throwaway, as if they didn't *really* want to play it, but felt they had to. That was the *only* disappointing aspect of the gig, for me, though - the rest (including the support act - Sola) was great.

This was the best show I've ever seen by Open Mike Eagle and/or milo. Previously I'd seen them in London, more than once, and the gigs, although enjoyable, seemed quite low-energy affairs. This time, milo was incredibly energised, almost to the point of seeming aggressive, and as a result his set was awesome. Open Mike's set, too, didn't just run through his latest album (which is one of his best), but took material from his entire oeuvre. I really enjoyed both, and hope to see them again some time soon.

Open Mike Eagle was an incredible show! He was so chill and open to talk with fans. He hung around in the crowd before his set, not at all too good for his fans. My boyfriend and I even got a picture! Great guy and awesome music !!~

Open Mike Eagle is so good live. Definitely recommend seeing him if you are even remotely thinking about it. This tour will mostly be his new album which is most likely going to be his best. Don't sleep on the opener, Sammus either.

Amazing show. The High Watt is a great venue, the opening act was quality and Open Mike Eagle killed it. He is one of the cleverest rappers out there and he has entertaining stage banter.
