Given his persona and personality, I am not surprised. He's got this bravado thing going on. He probably thought that he was ok and probably went to the performance as a way to get back into things and move forward. Grief hits you like that, you think that the worst of it has passed, but it hasn't. Poor kid (I guess not kid because we are around the same age) probably doesn't have any idea what he is doing.

I agree....working in mental health, I see alot of men especially handle grief this way...they try to get back into their routine as quickly as possible, trying to reestablish normality, but he's going have to face it at some point...my heart truly goes out to him.....

Completely agree about the lack of respect and courtesy from the media

Oh Kanye... I'm surprised that he did the concert, but everyone handles grief differently. Maybe he's never been hit with grief of this magnitude. I know I can't imagine how I would carry on just a week later if I lost either of my parents. It was just too soon.

I'm glad that everyone was so supportive at the concert. Now, I'm just waiting for photos to be posted because I'm sure there's someone willing to make a dime off their footage.

I know how he feels. I tried to go back to work three days after my dad died. Needless to say I spent most of the day in tears and in a state of confusion. Wow-I just wish folks would leave the man alone; let him grieve.

Me too Soror, two days after my grandfather passed. It hadn't really hit me, but it hit me hard that day at work.

There's a Youtube clip on EURweb.com; when he started to break down, I started crying.

I know, when I saw it I just started to cry right with him.

It's heartbreaking.
