Wu-Tang really is forever. The legendary Staten Island crew is set to embark on their final tour this summer, and the Wu-Tang Clan will be bringing a time capsule on the road.
One lucky fan at each tour stop will be able to donate one rare piece of Wu memorabilia to the Wu-Tang Forever Time Capsule. Fans will be able to check out the epic collection of Wu artifacts at the Shaolin Temple VIP Experience, which will turn a lifetime of memories into a timeless treasure.
“From the basements of Staten Island, we created something timeless,” RZA said in a statement. “And now we invite you to be part of that inspiration. In every city, we will be putting something new inside this time capsule.”
The Wu-Tang frontman continued: “Something from your city to connect with all the Wu cities and Wu fans around the world. This Wu-Tang Forever Time Capsule will only be seen in the Shaolin Temple VIP. We invite you to be part of this legacy.”
Dave Chappelle had the honor of being the first to donate to the time capsule, and he gave a signed vinyl from the group. The Wu-Tang Clan surprised a recent Chappelle Soundcheck Series show with a performance at the comic’s YS Firehouse in Yellow Springs, Ohio, last Friday (May 23).
“Thanks to the Wu for showing Ohio love,” Chappelle said. “They brought the time capsule with them. Each city has a chance to put something in it in the Shaolin Temple VIP experience. I repped for YS.”
The 27-date Wu-Tang Forever: The Final Chapter Tour is set to kick off on June 6 in Baltimore and will make stops in Tampa Bay, Houston, Phoenix, San Francisco, Sacramento, Portland, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, New York City and Toronto, and will wrap up in Philadelphia on July 18.
