Despite a scary beginning to the night when the front-row barricades collapsed and almost ended the show before it began, Ken Carson went off. The show went on with venue staff rebuilding the barricades right then and there, and even though he wasn\u2019t able to hit the stage until around 11 p.m., Carson made the best of it. He charged forward with a set of adventurous hip-hop. that had the massive crowd enraptured. Though the truncated set did leave some fans in attendance let down \u2026<\/p>\n
