Yes, it's true!!!!!!

Those into Fashion will know that the inaugural ARISE Africa Fashion Week kicks off at the Sandton Convention Centre 12 - 20 June 2009 and the best news about it is that it ends off with the "ARISE Africa Fashion Awards" on 20th June and THAT is where R Kelly will be perfoming first! *deep breath*

That's not all, his perfomance at the awards will only be the beginning. That perfomance will be kickstarting his multi city tour through Africa!

Okay, okay, okay, the dates :

THISDAY Music Festival featuring R Kelly presented by ARISE Magazine:

Saturday, June 27th at the Superbowl in Sun City

Monday, June 29th at the Grand West Casino in Cape Town

Friday, July 3rd at the THISDAY Dome in Abuja, Nigeria

Saturday, July 4th and Sunday, July 5th in Lagos, Nigeria

Wednesday, July 8th at Wembley Arena in London, UK

And please forgive me if I'm not making sense, I had to write this NOW, even though I'm too excited to put it nicely.

Brown Shuga
11 Jun 2009 23:59

LOL Cande.... we can't miss it! I agree.

off www.computicket.com :

Price
R416.00: Golden Circle Standing
R293.00: General Standing
R232.00: Mezzanine Rows A to H
R191.00: Mezzanine Rows J to Q
R293.00: Disabled platform

These are Cape Town Grand Arena prices but I reckon Sun City won't be that much different.

BS, I am shocked I thought you would know this. The whole Ne-yo and R Kelly saga. There were claims that R Kelly actually kicked Ne-yo off his tour cos he was stealing the limelight. Ne-Yo was the openning act for R Kelly. Shoprite is full of his live performances dvd.

The problem was the travelling part Green.arrow, after Aliyaah died in that horrible plane crash, he vowed never to take a plane again in his life. Now I just wanna know is he over this phobia, coz if he's coming by ship, then he is probally on sea already!

Computicket is not helpful nxa - they only show grandwest, I had almost lost hope!!!

Why are Sun City tickets more expensive than Cape Town's??? Is he gonna perform more songs in Sun City??

I just called the Computicket line at R2.85 per minute and they don't know when we can start bookings and they say they are waiting for promoters to instruct them to release the tickets, they don't know when that will be, we must just keep checking. *sigh*

I wasnt there but I hear that R kelly went on for an hour at 21h50. and when he finished he said " Ilove you i love you. adn that was the end.

Apparantly people thought he was going to change only to have security guards ask them to evacuate.

and i heard that there was a time when they played some old CD for about 30 minutes with no action on stage.

My friend was s o disappointed. shame. To think she brought the R400 ticket. and only saw him for 1 hour. and she got there early only to see Maliaka and some nigerian rapper perform. lol

Guys, the logistics were terrible. Computicket and the promoters have alot of explaining to do. There were about 1000 who were refused entry. We were told our tickets were fake and we had to go to the ticket enquiry office. When we got to the office our tickets were confiscated from us and they refused to help us, insisting that we had fake tickets. After 2 hours of fighting, swearing and singing "Mshini wami", they finally decided to let us in. Needless to say, we missed all the local artist performances. When we finally got in, the stage was empty for bout an hour, and some cd was playing in the background. When Kelly finally got on stage, his performance was good, but it ended rather abruptly.
Apparently the whole fiasco happened because computicket duplicated the tickets. Anyways, i suggest you guys get your tickets validated early, or maybe call computicket to ask them if they foresee a repeat of what happened in Sun City.

Jweb, where did you het your tickets. We were sure that ours were legit. Don't buy over the counter, rather go for internet as all the details and proof of everything was there. The golden circle was squashed because of that fiasco.

Jweb_99: Thats exactly what I heard.

Tbo touch has got to explain. To think people drove all the way there for 1 hour performance. They should. It's not right that people sat there for an hour with no action on stage. No ways. money wasted for niks

GML that was nothing. When Lauren hill was here it was worse. We waited for hours so this was nothing. R Kelly had no passion for this, I really did not fgeel him. Maybe John Legend was just too good and raised the bar too high.

I find that I'm also struggling with that......I go to a concert, and find myself measuring the performance against him and no one has lived upto that high standard he set.

Well, hopefully Boyz 2 Men, Anthony Hamilton & Jonhy Gill will deliver a better perfomance on Womans Day.

Thank God i didn't waste my money on the R.

Email to Metro for ur complaints, they are involved in the concerts.

Ja, John Legend was just on another level. I was yearing for more. I am still waitng for him to come back. The guy is brilliant.

The only song that felt good was the very last - Happy People.... At first he was doing snippets of all his old songs which I hated.... Other than that - I loved Malaika's performance, I think Thsedi can sing very well.... I loved a few songs from R Kelly - and I loved lusting after him....ohhh his smile.
But standing for 2 hours waiting for action was just not on..... inyawo zam bezitsha finish.

logistical nightmare if you ask me,i've sn such bad organising in my life of events management,people with tickets were refused entry because the place was packed,some of us parked our expensensive cars 5km away from suncity and walked to the venue. His voice was define but his stage perfomance was nje!for a men who shoots such hot videos,,i expected better stage perfomance.as for the after party,the least said the better having have said that,the man can sing and i enjoyed myself!

Brown Shuga it;s clear that you and I went to a different concert............I also enjoyed myself, and R Kelly performed more than an hour........Kanti abantu expect him to perform for 3 hours? No one ever performs for 3 hours.....As for the traffic issue, I agree it should have been handled better but we also have ourself to blame, me and my partner left Pretoria late (blame it on the BOEING i was driving)...................lol
