I had the pleasure of going to see Rap’s up-and-comer, J.Cole, at the Fillmore on Wednesday night. He performed so well and really engaged the crowd. You can’t help but love him, he is oh-so adorable, and puts out really great music. Also, you gotta love the fact he is a college grad and really seems to be a humble person.
J.Cole’s performance was not the only thing that impressed me Wednesday. The Fillmore in Silver Spring was a pleasant surprise. It reminded me of the music hall, the Norva in Norfolk, where I went to see a many concerts in college. The venue was IDEAL for a small concert with an intimate feel. Some of the features of the venue are; standing room only, numerous bars, great acoustics and lighting, and it boasts FREE coat check. Awesome right?!
I would love to catch another show at the Fillmore. Below is a list of their upcoming shows…who should I go see?
