Pathetic, same ol trick...pics of empty hall before fans arrive oh asali mpiaka...stupid people
from the info i have got,promoters did not give him his money for the second show so the musicians did not arrived for soundcheck and it dragged on and on while fans where starting to enter the hall not knowing about what was going on
honestly i am tempted to say it helps them in nothing,since its not based anymore on whats THEIR JOB but the outcomes of their jobs while they are in a job where the biggest clown ever could with luck,good opportunity or great staff pull incredible "outcome"when i mean outcome its "ba plein",awards and so on,even in live performances i have seen in some countries like here in france comedians having concerts(michael youn for those who know him) which were way more lit that of some professional talented singersit used to help them at the beginning when they had everything to prove but now it mainly helps fans to vent their anger due to taxes and so on lol i am being a bit caricatural here but its more or less that,one hell lot of noise ,few constructive stuffits basically more and more about boosting egos of the fans and of them artists rather than raising the artistic game like their elders did for a relentless 10 years end of last century to half of first decade
presenter jean marie molato speaks about what happened, i am not finding again the complete video like posted yesterday but he started saying that he was disappointed both for ferre and for the fans then he went to say that one factor which contributed massively to what happened is that in the organization of the second company there was the guy who brought him in ivory coast for the first time in 2008 and ferre's conditions were not fully respected but thanks to his frienship with some guys including him the presenter he went back home and this time around same things were happening and for him its a loss for both ferre and the promoters who all could have made money if they handled the things righthe cant blame ferre for refusing to perform and gives example of nigerian artists who wont even come to your country unless you have paid the whole money or will come but not step on stage without their complete money,no questions of wait after the concert or whateverand he went on to say some producers of ivory coast are not serious with the money issues and gives example of a concert of jb which he presented as he presented most concerts of rumba artists in ivory coast,and the producer ran away leaving jb to pay tickets to go back with his group,in 2013 fally gave a concert with a lot of hours late and fans even threw bottles and chairs to them presenters because fally refused to leave hotel until he got his money and they had to negotiate until he came later so for him in terms of professionalism he thinks ferre did the right thing but in terms of his image with fans when artists do that fans are left surprised and upset because unless artists take upon themselves to perform without having received the money(like he did in first concert being paid after concert and allegedly the other promoters wanted to pay him this week ) fans are the one who are thrown under the bus in conflicts between artists and promotersand he went on to say that promoters of the second show had issues already with some of the service providers the concert was meant to start at 6PM but until 8 9PM podium was not even totally set up with the instruments and of course when fans arrive and that 3 hours after things still have not kicked one bit people are disappointed and eventually leave and unlike some people saying that ferre only cancelled fearing not to fill the hall there was plenty of people coming and going when seeing that the concert was not starting
