I still to this day tell people this was the best live show I ever saw. The energy in the building was unlike anything I've experienced. Kanye absolutely destroyed it. Not a single person was standing still in the building, everyone clapping and dancing along. He even did like two or three songs from 808 and heartbreaks before anyone knew the songs well, no one cared they were just vibing out. For Australians it was a rare sight..
In 2008, I was an attendee at this tour. It was the venue in Camden NJ/Philly and it was the top concert I've ever seen live, you just had to be there. I won the tickets by calling into the local radio station, Power 99. It was a outdoor venue and rained a bit and cleared up soon after. I went to have a good time, but the girl I was dating at the time was determined to bring my mood down. I was dancing so hard that I lost my little Kyocera branded, Cricket serviced phone that I had just brought a few weeks prior and I didn't even care. It had all the pictures and little clips of the concert. Me and the girl got into a huge fight shortly afterwards and broke up. This video means a lot to me because I couldn't really enjoy myself at the time but I can relive the lazers, shutter glasses and auto-tune that was this concert. Thank you for this piece of history.
My man, you have done the Lord's work with this. I have said for YEARS that I wish Kanye would release this tour on DVD or Blu-Ray. This is the closest we will get with this. This is still my favorite tour of his. Incredible work and thank you for your hard work on this!
Super obsessed with Kanye's live performances and how he enhances his own music live to give it a whole new feeling. the Drunk and Hot Girls part is awesome.
I’m so happy this is finally completed!! Hopefully the other shows/tours will be restored in a manner like this. I’m currently working on an audio restoration of the Watch The Throne Tour!
@@TalentedKamarty Beautiful, I have a good quality version of the Greensboro, North Carolina show! The entirety. Check my latest video to check out the quality. I’ll be uploading more in the near future
He toured UK after 808 came out. Dude played Love Lockdown 5 times instead of the closing speech. He also brought everyone from GOOD MUSIC and Santigold to open. It was like 2 hours of opening acts.
I’ve been Kanye fan for a long time but im more on the younger side so i never really look deep into his old/archived stuff (outside of the unreleased songs), but the more i look into it the more im sure that he is the actual Goat. His journey from where he was to where he is now is diffrent than any other rapper sure it might had ups and downs but it motivates u in a way. In 30 years time they will be making Kanye movies just like how they did with MJ and Elvis .Generational musician idc what evb says 🐐
I remember being in high school upset I wasn't old enough to go travel & go to the show by myself .... told myself I'd recreate this experience for the next generation..... and we here now ... MAGIC MADE !
innocent times. kanye univercity was my homepage, cudi was on the come up, and i got to see this live in sacramento and do a meet and greet with lupe at a local record store.
I went to the Glendale, AZ leg of this tour. I got the tix for my 18th birthday and it was my first concert. It was legendary. I sang along to every single word and got to see one of Kanye’s epic rants live. I’ve been to many concerts since then but none have topped the Glow In The Dark tour.
Kanye brought in a new era and was chosen by the generation. I will never forget me and my sister waiting for the ticket sales to drop and he sold out within SECONDS. We found them elsewhere, the price was hiked up to $800, but we ran upstairs, woke up and begged our dad give us his card to purchase the tickets because this was very important (we also loved all of the artist on this tour)! He thought something was wrong with how desperate and out of breath we were. "Who?!" my dad asked but we didn't have time for questions, he handed over the card and we got those tickets. This era was SO exciting. We were in the third row. I will never forget it. My dad surely knows who Kanye is now lol and always brings up that story.
I remember going to this concert. Him, lupe, rihanna brought chris brown out...Pharrell was supposed to be there but couldn't make the show i went to. It was raining so hard in the city that outside after the show..the streets were flooded. Seen cars floating and everything. I didn't want to be anywhere else in the world that day... one of the best days of my life❤
I always wondered why Kanye never produced DVDs for his tours given his appreciation of Street DVDs smh. wish we could have gotten HD video of the tour
Jack, all I can say is "WOW", I watched the 30mins. version of it months ago and boy, I was excited for the full version. You gave us, Kanye fans, a huge gift, this tour is unbelievably top class, just like the work you did. YOU'RE MAKING HISTORY! By the way, I have a suggestion: upload it to Internet Archive, you know how RUclips is, don't ya...
Fam thank you so much for this. In Chicago, this show was EVERYTHING to us .... The whole hood was out with the preppy rich kids, and it was just good energy. Then Lupe, Common, and Pharrell made guest appearances! Fam... Through the wire just made me emotional. This was such an era! Gratitude!
The spaceship voice Jane was Trip Hop Artist, Esthero. She also was a writer on Love Lockdown, Robocop, & Street Lights. I highly recommend her album, "Breath From Another". She also sang the hook on "Weekends" from Black Eye Peas. One of the best voices in music. The Glow In The Dark tour was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Seeing N.E.R.D & Kanye was incredibly special. Thank you for posting this.🖖
I've told the story of how great this show was for years, and now you've given something to finally back those stories up. Thank you. This is excellent work for the culture of Hip Hop.
Thank you so much. I saw this live at Nissan pavilion in VA. Hearing I wonder, and flashing lights live rendition was life altering. Just from hearing the recorded versions on the albums I could never picture the songs sounding better! Incredible! Not to mention the guest spots and openers were insane! NERD, pusha, Rihanna, Chris brown, Lupe, Nikki jean
Damn you unlocked so many memories with this one. I went to the SD and LA shows and it was insane. It was my first Kanye concert but not my last, I went to watch the throne, yeezus, TLOP, Hoover concert and vultures listening at rolling loud in LA as well. Its been a privilege to see this man grow. A lot of people hate all his new stuff but im just happy to see it all the way through tbh. Ye would make a ton of money if he did a revival tour of all his classics but i can tell he only thinks of the future and doesnt feed into the nostalgia which i can respect but the Hoover concert was special af too. Damn i really hope he doesnt quit music, I think i would lose faith in music if he did. Im 38 now and hes the only artist i look forward to. Wake up Mr. West!
Dude I got goosebumps over and over again for an hour and half, this is amazing and I can only imagine how long it took, thanks bro, hope the channel blows up
This tour and watch the throne tour I was able to attend.. And I tell you they were both his best performances.. The lights shows have always been electric at his concerts
Omg! I’ve been to hundred of concerts and this one is in my top 5. For a show to literally be a one man show it was brilliant! I have always wanted a video of it! Thank you for putting it together!
I went to this tour when he came to L.A. it was EPIC!!! I still have my "Glow in the dark Tour" shirt with the bear wearing the iconic white glasses, thanks for the upload, you brang good memories and made me smile 👌😁💎👑🎧🔥
This is great just Dug out my glow in the dark tour Tee from the moline IL concert last night for my son. Who like me is a BIG Ye fan. Still to this day the best concert ive went to. Thanks for this
Imagine this tour with modern technology
it would go crazy
It had… modern technology.
@@waterdlyedthis was almost 20 years ago
I mean what can we really do now vs when this tour came out?
@@sampson9115almost 20 years ago…
They way he introduced Good Morning was genius. Kanye is so creative man.
@@Mxtthieu i think that was Throught the wire but true tho
This is history bro. I know this probably took you hours if nobody tells you this is amazing. Thank you
This is already one of the grails tbh. I second this gratitude🔥
I third this gratitude!
Yes! ❤
agreed! absolute grail! thank you
Yea so many hours. It’s really well done. Thank you.
This tour was difficult for Kanye because he had just lost his mom so you know that Hey mama was the hardest to perform. It was an Amazing concert.
I still to this day tell people this was the best live show I ever saw. The energy in the building was unlike anything I've experienced. Kanye absolutely destroyed it. Not a single person was standing still in the building, everyone clapping and dancing along. He even did like two or three songs from 808 and heartbreaks before anyone knew the songs well, no one cared they were just vibing out. For Australians it was a rare sight..
You're so lucky to have seen this in person
Which songs?
@@justkev1044 He did love lockdown, heartless and welcome to heartbreak.
I saw this concert live and it was best concert I ever been to! It was so creative how he tied his songs to a simple story but a moving story.
100% Agree Man that sh*t was sick!
In 2008, I was an attendee at this tour. It was the venue in Camden NJ/Philly and it was the top concert I've ever seen live, you just had to be there.

Kanye is our Beatles. Changed everything.
"Remember Mr West this isnt your Fust Crash"
Fuck this goes hard
that’s what im sayin🔥
My man, you have done the Lord's work with this. I have said for YEARS that I wish Kanye would release this tour on DVD or Blu-Ray. This is the closest we will get with this. This is still my favorite tour of his. Incredible work and thank you for your hard work on this!
Damn wish we could get better quality of this.....goat level shit
the way he introduced flashing lights was phenomenal. this man is ahead of his time
I was in 8th grade when he came to denver, and everyone the next day came to school wearing the shutter shades. I miss these days
Super obsessed with Kanye's live performances and how he enhances his own music live to give it a whole new feeling. the Drunk and Hot Girls part is awesome.
This version of I wonder goes hard af
Best version, been looking for a clearer version or a remake but couldn't find any
imagine this in the vegas sphere holy shit
GOAT shit.
Shame we'll never see this Kanye again :(
he’s evolving
Just wait
I’m so happy this is finally completed!! Hopefully the other shows/tours will be restored in a manner like this. I’m currently working on an audio restoration of the Watch The Throne Tour!
I got a Playlist of the WTT tour in order. I tried to find the best versions of each performance
@@TalentedKamarty Beautiful, I have a good quality version of the Greensboro, North Carolina show! The entirety. Check my latest video to check out the quality. I’ll be uploading more in the near future
I don’t think y’all understand how crazy the transition into spaceship is
To everyone involved with the Glow in the Dark Tour Restoration Project, thank you and god bless.
He toured UK after 808 came out. Dude played Love Lockdown 5 times instead of the closing speech. He also brought everyone from GOOD MUSIC and Santigold to open. It was like 2 hours of opening acts.
Love lockdown. Love lockdown. Love lockdown. Love lockdown. Love lockdown would be so fun. Fiend 10 times would have walked me
@@jeffgordonsmom1730 I mean after a five hour show we didn’t need to hear it 5 times over haha
Love lockdown is a banger tho
the editing is absolutely phenomenal, if i hadn't seen the shake and variable frame rate I'd think this is a concert film, thank you so much
This is what they meant when they said “I miss the old Kanye”
I’ve been Kanye fan for a long time but im more on the younger side so i never really look deep into his old/archived stuff (outside of the unreleased songs), but the more i look into it the more im sure that he is the actual Goat.

That performance of "Stronger" was absolutely incredible
innocent times. kanye univercity was my homepage, cudi was on the come up, and i got to see this live in sacramento and do a meet and greet with lupe at a local record store.
I would do anything to time travel just to go to this concert
I GOT CHILLLSSS WHEN THAT BEAT DROPPED FOR I WONDER OMGGG😳
I’m graduating from college in a week! What a gift… thank you‼️🎉
Congratulations! 👏

I love you bro as someone who couldn't attend any of the shows cause of cancer I think you so much for letting me experience this shit again man
Once Kanye dies, I’ll come back to his live performances and listen to his music just to hear and see him. This man is such a big inspiration to me
Every time he performs Hey Mama, it tears me up so much 😢

Great work. I got chills watching this. Kanye was and is a true visionary, artist and creative, The first and the last.
not last

I've told the story of how great this show was for years, and now you've given something to finally back those stories up. Thank you. This is excellent work for the culture of Hip Hop.
Wow that hey mama performance was so raw…. His momma’s passing was shortly before that performance wow the emotion
Thanks for this time capsule. I always wanted to time travel to experience this tour
Glad I saw this one live
Thank you so much. I saw this live at Nissan pavilion in VA. Hearing I wonder, and flashing lights live rendition was life altering. Just from hearing the recorded versions on the albums I could never picture the songs sounding better! Incredible!
Not to mention the guest spots and openers were insane! NERD, pusha, Rihanna, Chris brown, Lupe, Nikki jean
Why was I being born instead of attending this
Born in 2008 is insane you missed out on the best years
Same bro😭
@@TheWhiteChicano fr bro, now the only thing i get to experience is vultures, which is kinda a mess imo
Exactly
Damn you unlocked so many memories with this one. I went to the SD and LA shows and it was insane.
