At the gig, Performances

Afro Mandinko playing a concert in Fitzroy Gardens in Melbourne – January 2009. Not only a great dance band in action but also a group who are experts in the science of warming up large crowds to dance, sing and express their inner spirit.

    our local (famous) folk festival banned dancing for a decade, for fear people would “hurt themselves” — organizers cited “insurance costs — when dancing was later re-introduced in a sweep of new ‘progressive’ management, dancers were confined to a special fenced gazebo set aside and behind from the main stage. I stopped paying attention after that, but I hear lately dancing fans are no longer asked to leave. you are, believe me, so lucky to be in a culture where a fiyah like Afro Mandinko would be kindled to ignite. it is special; celebrate it.

    My theory is that people are sick of safe entertainment. I am sure if you had an act called – DEATH TENT – that you toured around festivals it would be a hit. Imagine a spruiker out the front saying – “Come into the DEATH TENT, its so dangerous we can’t get insurance. In fact if you want to see the act, you’ll have to sign this form which says we can’t insure you and you may be killed and you won’t be able to sue us.”

    I am sure there would be a queue for that tent from here to the equator and back, wanting some good old fashioned danger.
