Rain, rain, go away!

Alicia Keys and Jay-Z were scheduled to perform before Game 1 of the World Series between the New York Yankees and defending champs the Philadelphia Phillies, but will now perform before Game 2.

The crappy weather conditions in New York City today have forced Jay-Z and Alicia Keys to postpone their planned performance of “Empire State of Mind” to Game 2 on Thursday night. The superstars will sing their song “Empire State of Mind” off Jay-Z’s album, The Blueprint 3, followed by what is bound to be an explosive performance of Alicia Keys singing the national anthem.
