I hear these guys demand between one metre to one point two per show but i see no any advancement in them go to Gadaga you will see what type of rented houses they are living in. I dont mean to be jealousy or what but i feel sorry for them. What they are lacking is a good manager. Once they get the payment the sharing is pompopompo and what is that.
Musiye koma anthu aku Mulanje kupha anthu osalakwa powaganizira zithu zolakwika zopusa. Mukuwononga tourism industry whose beneficiary is (the same) you. Ine ndimafuna ndibwere chaka chino koma aaaah! mungazandiphe. Its better ndipite ku KUTI ku Salima or Mangochi
Their days are numbered and their music is getting to be the same year after year. These guys take deposits and they run away. Malawi is too small to be fki@ng with the fans…..
They used to be a great band, but now I cannot recommend their music to anyone.
