Nelly Will Take the Stage at the Backyard Bar in Waco May 8th

For the almost 6 years I have been in Texas, there have been plenty of hip hop artists that have passed through the area for shows - whether they had a show in Austin or even a concert here in Killeen.

One artist who hasn't come this way (at least to my knowledge) is Nelly.

That's about to change!

According to their Facebook page, Nelly will be performing all of his hits at the Backyard Stage Bar and Grill in Waco Friday, May 8th.

What's your favorite Nelly song?

Here's mine. Remember this? The video freaks too!

Oh wait, here's another classic!

I don't think the St. Lunatics will be with him, but I'm sure he'll rock out!

If you are a fan of this St. Louis hip hop legend get your tickets now.
