No More Delays: Drake Tour Opened In Kansas City Last Night

By FYI Staff

After a series of production issues pushed back the start of the Drake and Migos “Aubrey and the Three Migos Tour,” the big tent event kicked off last night in Kansas City.


Migos joined Drake for a performance of their Culture II track “Walk It Talk It.” They also brought it back to their 2013 collaboration “Versace,” which, as Drake pointed out, marks the first time they’ve performed it onstage together.

Last night’s set list also included Drake covering Michael Jackson’s 1979 track “Rock With You”, and at one point a yellow Ferrari was floating above the crowd.

All told the Three Migos Tour includes 41 shows that include several Canadian stops, beginning at the Scotiabank Centre in hometown Toronto on August 20, 21, & 22. He’ll then perform at Vancouver’s Rogers Arena on November 3 and 4, then head to Edmonton’s Rogers Place on November 6.

Pitchfork has more on the opening night show, including fan video postings.
