Wasn’t it that festival of Congo Brazzaville’s 42th independence party at Stade Charlety where they also invited King Kester Emeneya ? I remember that there used to be a little festival in 2000 with Papa Wemba & Nouvelle Ecriture, King Kester Emeneya, Bozi Boziana, Gina Efonge, Général Defao & Depitsho with JF Ifonge there performing on the same stage. Martin Sinnock made an article about that concert on his website. I never saw the videotape of that concert, only an extrat on Wemba sur la route de Bercy.
I’ve never been at Stade de Charletty. But did they really perform in that stadium. Or did they perform in a complex inside the stadium ? Because don’t remember Werrason hyping about performing there. I remember only him annoucing a concert in that stadium for the summer if 2004 just before they to UK with his staff already making people ready and concert promoter inviting Youssou N’dour, Brenda Fassie, Jacob Desvarieux, Meiway and Mory Kante. But visa problems made them cancel that event. If they really performed inside the stadium was the stadium then soldout like Ségolène Royal meeting there in 2007 ?
