I had no planned coverage until 4:00pm the first day to cover Paris Texas so my time was spent conversing with the other media members in attendance...

To say I was excited to see Tyler The Creator and Kendrick was an understatement...
My day started a bit earlier for day two - I headed in and immediately went to the merch stand to grab my buddy a shirt...
Tyler’s stage set modeled that of a junkyard with stacked cars and a crane dangling over his automobile perch. The LED background was filled with different scenes depicting a constant evolution of set and setting...
