Boleseng thrills F/town revellers

It was an uncharacteristically chilly Saturday evening after a week of hot weather in Francistown, but it did not deter jazz lovers who came in droves, to part with the asking price of P50 at the door to watch Boleseng and the new kid on the block, Fane, who was releasing his debut album at Thapama Hotel.

Inside the open-air hall, at the outset, lovers and friends huddled together to keep the chill at bay.  But when he took to the stage, playing two numbers from his album, which should be out early next year, the place started thawing up.  One song that had revellers standing up to do a tango was Ke Swa Hela (Dying With Love) in which a suitor describes his prospective lover in detail, especially the facial features that make her a beauty to behold.
