So . . . Nelly is going to play Soo Blaster

We're as surprised as you are

Whoa Nelly.

The three-time Grammy-winning rapper will play Sault Ste. Marie in March as part of his All Work, No Play tour.

Cabin Media says Nelly, who is perhaps best known for his 2002 hit Hot In Herre, will play downtown arcade Soo Blaster March 20, before moving on to shows in Barrie and Guelph.

You may also know Nelly from such singles as Work it, Air Force Ones and Pimp Juice.

Nelly has also done his share of television and movies, having played Earl Megget in the Adam Sandler remake of The Longest Yard, and has also appeared in his own television series, Nellyville.

Tickets go on sale Wednesday at 10 a.m. at www.cabinmedia.ca
