Good looks Keebler, I looked there early and I don't recall even seeing anything listed for the 10th :\ Still don't see anything about Rakim though... atleast in regards to this date. Just because Ghost & Kim are currently on tour doesn't mean that Kim will be making the KC stop. Seriously, I think Rakim would get higher billing over Tech N9ne, meaning if he was going to be there, he would probably be listed.
EDIT: Def Jam's site lists Ghostface & Tech on the 10th, your saying Rakim will be there aswell, Beaumont's site lists nothing for that date. Tech lists himself, and whatnot with special guests. Now, I just ran across this, same night "J Anthony Brown" is booked aswelll...

Tech N9ne Joins Ghostface Killah, Rakim, Brother Ali and The Roots Rhythm Allstars for One Time Performance
*****
The Hip Hop Live tour, featuring groundbreaking acts such as Wu Tang Clan alum Ghostface Killah, hip hop pioneer Rakim, along with underground favorite Brother Ali and backing band The Rhythm Roots Allstars, stops in Kansas City at the Beaumont Club November 10th and in an unprecedented addition will be co-headlined by Kansas City's own Tech N9ne. Tickets go on sale Saturday, October 6th at 10 am at all Ticketmaster outlets or online at
www.ticketmaster.com and will be available later at the Beaumont Club box office.
A landmark Kansas City hip hop artist, Tech N9ne's latest album, “Everready (The Religion),” has already surpassed the 100,000 unit sales mark, cementing himself as the number 1 independent rap artist and number 4 independent artist in the nation. Tech N9ne is also fresh off the release of his first collaboration album “Tech N9ne Collabos: Misery Loves Kompany,” featuring Yukmouth, Big Krizz Kaliko, Kutt Kalhoun, Skatterman, Snug Brim, Prozak, Big Scoob, T-Nutty, Dalima along with several other underground hip hop mainstays.
Ghostface Killah and Rakim have both been involved in some of the biggest hip hop albums ever released. As a member of the infamous Wu Tang Clan, Ghostface Killah collaborated with the other members to release legendary albums “Enter the Wu Tang (36 Chambers)” and “Wu Tang Forever.” As a solo artist, Ghostface Killah's “Fishscale” was released to critical acclaim on the way to going gold and most recently an album of previously unreleased tracks called “Hidden Darts.” Rakim, of Eric B. and Rakim fame, is arguably one of the most influential hip hop artists of all time. His albums include the legendary “Paid in Full,” “Follow the Leader,” and “Let the Rhythm Hit 'Em,” all of which made The Source Magazine's 100 Best Rap Albums.
Brother Ali, a longtime underground fixture, is touring behind his April release “The Undisputed Truth.” The second single from the album, “Uncle Sam Goddamn,” is currently receiving heavy airplay on MTV, MTV2 and national hip hop stations despite its controversial subject matter.
The Rhythm Roots Allstars has been gaining a reputation as an exceptional backing band and have played with the likes of Macy Gray, Black Eyed Peas, Justin Timerlake, Christina Aguillera, Ben Harper, Outkast along with countless others.
