So my dad just reminded me of this, When Werra and Maison Mere first came to London Werra didn't know how BIG his Fan base became here after Force D'Intervention Rapide and one of my relatives was a huge Werra fan and pretty much represented the Maison Mere fan club of London lol and he was also Werra's pire petit they were so close that my uncle even named his daughter Exaucee after Werra's daughter and after my uncle passed away a few years later in 2004, Werra even did a concert for his honour. So of course my uncle was super tight with my Dad and my Dad admired Werra too (lol our household was Maison Mere and QL only) my uncle told Werra that we were fans and Werra wanted to make sure his concert wouldn't be a mpiaka. So Werra personally called our house and I picked up the phone since I was still a kid I answered and he was like "Ello" and I asked who it was and he said "C'est Werra son" and I was like "whaaaaat" and I shouted for my dad to come and I started saying "Dad it's Tonton Werra" (We were told to call him that since my uncle was really close to him) and my Dad was just looking at me and thought I was joking and he answered and it actually was Werra to his surprise. Werra asked him if he was coming to the show later on in the week and my Dad confirmed he was coming and they had a bit of a conversation and they were bantering about my uncle and other things and my dad told him "oh yeah my kids are big fans of yours" and Werra was touched and even said "Ahh merci merci baza ba petit na nga" and he even said "Hopefully we'll see each other at the show but it's a shame we won't be able to hang out properly" since my dad was working when Werra was available. After the phone call I was dancing and saying "ahh Tonton Werra I spoke to Tonton Werra" and my Dad was looking at me like "Wtf is wrong with this kid" :D :D. As expected I wasn't able to go to the show as no kids were allowed but my dad went and he wasn't able to see Werra in person.
This was the show
