Music feast recalled

MANY people will remember the EPRU stadium for the musical entertainment it has brought the city.

Shortly after returning from close to 30 years in exile, celebrity couple Letta Mbulu and Caiphus Semenya graced the Boet Erasmus Stadium with their presence, giving an electrifying performance.

Many more local and international performances attracted large audiences.

Port Elizabeth welcomed the year 2004 with a big New Year‘s Eve bash which included jazz artists Hugh Masekela, Ringo and Jimmy Dludlu.

Kwaito star Mandoza performed at the stadium for a Human Rights Day celebration in March 2004.

On New Year‘s Eve in 2005, Jimmy Dludlu returned with Gloria Bosman and Simphiwe Dana to wow the crowds.

The following year the stadium hosted star-studded shows, including a performance by Ronan Keating in January that year and the Unite of the Stars concert featuring British superstar Will Young, ‘80s pop stars Bananarama and Italian Patrizio Buanne in November. A month later, gospel sensations Bebe and Cece Winans performed there.

Multi-platinum rock band Nickelback were scheduled to perform that year, but the tour was put off when a band member suffered from exhaustion.

Last year was no different and Michael Bolton and Irish pop group Westlife performed at Algoa FM‘s 21st anniversary in March. The show was interrupted by rain.

In October, Grammy Award- winning artist Michael W Smith came to town and yet again the heavens opened during his performance, but did not disrupt the show.

This year Celine Dion gave an electrifying performance in front of a huge audience on February 27.
