Lucky Dube Live in the Hague

One of the great fathers of reggae appeared today in The Hague, Lucky Dube! After having a quick snack after the KFC we went to Paard of Troje to listen to this mans chants. Playing 2 hours and 30 minutes we heard songs like: House of Exile, Feel Irie, I've got you, Remember and Truth in the World, just to name a few. This Lucky's last world tour and he will be misted on stage. Peace out.

Gentleman Live in Flamboyant Park

One of the greatest reggae bands of all time has given one of the greatest reggae shows of all time. I quote: "Gentleman hasn't seen such a crowd in 15 years of playing on stage". That makes me feel so proud of being Surinamese. The crowd was awesome. 16000 people filled the stage area, jumping and chanting everyone of Otto's sounds. This will certainly not be the last time that Gentleman and the Far East Band will be in Suriname.
