"These days, buying a ticket to a Lauryn Hill concert is basically like buying a lottery ticket-you're either going to end up a little more broke and a little more bitter than yesterday, or you're going to strike gold. No question, Ms. Lauryn Hill is volatile. Her tours from recent years are littered with scathing reports of her chronic tardiness, distant affect, and inscrutable renditions. Reports from this tour have been somewhat mixed, but in general one of the greatest artists of the '90s has returned to form."  -- Courtney Harrell, Denver's Westworld.com 

The Grammy winning rapper, singer, producer and former Fugees star Lauryn Hill is back on the road, including an upcoming show at Iroquois Amphitheatre on July 22. She has some need to work, having rather recently been in Federal prison for non-payment on income taxes, with the result penalites and such adding up to a considerable sum, which she has paid off. Be that as it may, the 1998 album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill remains her landmark (and only) solo effort, having sold some eight million copies and earning her five Grammy Awards, including Album Of The Year and Best New Artist. Following all that success, she dropped out public view to live a private life, only performing occasionally. In 2010, she returned to the stage, playing a few festivals and shows. Her tax evasions charges derailed that. Her current tour is with the agreement of the judge. Tickets to the show are $50, $60 and $80.
