In the evening the
“Program” was memorable for it’s absurdities rather than it’s spectacle. At
8.30pm the brothers and I walked the 500m to the local church where there were
crowds and processions and drumming bands galore. We went on to the school
grounds roped off for different kinds of patrons in front of a stage. There was a section for families and the Police kept coming along and sending the single people out. When their back was turned they would come back in.
The
program didn’t start until 9.30 and the first part was peopling talking for
half an hour. They all seem to think that the people are keen to hear their voices.
They should have noticed that there was very little applause for the speeches,
much less than for the few singers who followed. We had to leave before things
go going because it was so late.
