lol, now he says that JB Mpiana is a professional artist and doesn't have anything to prove anymore, so he would not refuse the offer just because of the hall having 800 seats. While in Roger Ngandu's previous interview, he said the hall is to small for an artist of JB's level. Now I wonder if contracts will follow for concerts in Brussels and London and if there will be another concert in Paris the following week or month. Because I think that many people would like to see BCBG live, especially after having seen them anymore since Dock Eiffel in 2010

Badive can now finally fulthify his dream, after 17 years trying to plan an 100 euros event. In 2007, he tried it by planning a Werrason vs Koffi Olomide event at Elysee Montmartre, but the event got cancelled because of Werrason not respecting the contract. In 2008, he tried it once again by planning an acoustic concert at the same Theatre de Gymanse Marie Bell for Koffi Olomide, to present the B.E.K.-album. But Koffi sadly didn't receive visa's for Quartier Latin. The last time was in 2011, which immediately caused the concert-ban. Badive tried to plan a 100 euros event for Valentine's Day at Elysee Montmartre, wanting to have a Papa Wemba vs Werrason event. But he had bad luck that many people were mad against Werrason for insulting people living in Europe in an interview, by saying that they do small jobs like working in the construction and healthcare. There were also people mad that, like the cancelled event of Koffi (There were Bana Congo-activist ready to sabotate the concert at day, because of Koffi having performed in Rwanda), about planning an event of 100euros while life becoming harder in Europe, with them all joining the combattants who had a protest march that day, which ended up blocking the concert and musicians for were in their way to Elysee Montmartre for the sound-check getting assaulted. Olivier Tshimanga not only physically getting attacked, but combattans also breaking his guitar down.






Going back to Badive's plan. When he came with that idea, you had the hype around those 100-dollars VIP concerts at Grand Hotel de Kinshasa (nowadays Pullman), but those times are over. The deccenium that followed, it was about 200-dollars event and JB & Werrason bragging about it when doing those concerts in the earlys 2010s. Now it's about 300-dollars concerts and in some extent even 500 dollars. At the same time, the situation in Europe isn't the same anymore, life has become expensive and concert-tickets also. Concert-tickets that are cheap are mostly around 50/60 euros. So if Badive wants to match that prestige of Kinshasa's VIP-events, he should think about planning 300 or 500 euros with Fally Ipupa or Ferre Gola at New Morning, Le Divan du Monde, Le Trianon or Le Grand Rex
