Machakos The New Party Spot?

Hardly a month after the Groove Tour was in Machakos, the Kenya Live concerts headed to the same town, same venue to rock the fans of the hot Eastern town, fondly known as Masaku or Mayakos. We think with all these SafCom gigs going to Machakos, its just a matter of time before event organisers catch on to the fact that Masaku is only 45 mins away!
The Kenyatta Stadium started filling up as early as 5 pm for the Kenya Live Concert which promised the fans a night of thrills and close-up concert performances from their greatest artistes both secular and gospel. For the first time, the Kenya Live organisers had the VIP option of entrance by displaying an unscrtached 500 airtime voucher. What better way to get into a concert than by buying yourself credit?? I guess thats why ther crowd was so massive and the security levels highly compromised!

The artistes in the “Safaricom Kenya Live Family” have signed on to perform for their fans with a live band, no playbacks and no lip-syncing. Is this something that they have pulled off so far? I think they have a bit more practise to do in this area. However, the show was all in all great with the performers coming onto stage one by one wowing the crowds way past midnight after which the DJs took over the stage till the wee hours of the morning.
