IT’S called ingenuity, phone operators in a bid to cash in on quick dimes, took their landline phones to the stadium. One operator was heard jokingly announcing, “Old women sh500, men sh200.â€
There were outrageous fashions especially from the artistes, our fashion police must have had a field day.
Some bordered on nudity and others could do for a wedding but not a concert while others emphasised the bootie and cleavage.
Like at other concerts, women outnumbered men and danced along to controversial songs like Mamuli Katumba’s “Enyama†(beef). The song praising beef/meat as a delicacy to be frank, has nothing to do with the meat you and I know but something bordering on sex.
He may be small but Isaac Mulindwa knows a thing or two about being tough even before security men. He was in the thick of things ‘roughing up’ LDUs who didn’t perform to his expectations.
Mike Mubiru, a young street fine artist turned up with his wares that attracted curious crowds including Amooti. The Amarula comedian sat perplexed with the young boy’s artwork but refused to part with a shilling despite his fans urging him to do so. He just sipped his beer. A piece of Bush, Museveni, or even Ronaldo went for sh2,000. Mubiru said he could draw one’s portrait on the spot.
As Eagles Production’s Haruna Mubiru belted away his Kitooke song, with no announcement or warning came the very first fireworks display. It caught many off guard and they either took off to nowhere or scampered for cover like an MTN employee in the VIP stand who tried to hide under a chair.
For employees of Saatchi and Saatchi, it was a day out for them. Many of them had never been to Nakivubo Stadium and got lost trying to get there. Mbu some employees ended up at Namboole Stadium.
One guy was doused in paraffin and his days were almost over hadn’t it been for some fellows to come to his rescue. He said he was accused of nicking someone’s phone. He brushed it off saying he wouldn’t do such a thing but his body smelt of paraffin that a single strike of a matchstick would have been enough to plunge him into flames.
So many male artistes may boast about having women drool over them. But Abdu Mulasi just flashed it around. He came in with an entire entourage. He stirred up the backstage as he took up the entire gents’ dressing tent. Like there was no ladies’ dressing tent, all his women followed him into the tent, and that chased out the men.
