The maestro who cannot dance

No Image

Looking at Dan Tshanda dancing to his music one is reminded of a wood worn left in a scorching sun trying to save itself - twisting and turning without drifting away from the same place that is burning it.

He is majestic when it comes to producing music and few can match his vocal ability but he is simply the maestro who cannot dance to his own tune. But a born entertainer, the Splash boss knows how to make up for his 'weakness'. When he takes to the stage he makes sure that his fans have something to talk about after every performance.   His funny antics came to the fore at his two shows at Orapa and  Sowa town. Never mind the poor crowds, those who came left with a plate full.

In Sowa Township especially, the legendary disco musician seemed really charged up for a performance.  As usual his turn came in the early hours of the morning and with his backing band playing and impromptu composition to keep the fans engaged while waiting for "the man",  the Splash lead vocalist appeared from behind a sound truck parked near the stage dressed in a shiny cream suit, more like a businessman who is just about to jet a plane or attend a high-powered meeting.

Exercise extra caution!

Unfortunately, petty thieves tend to be more vicious around this time as they also prepare for the festive season. Culturally, many Batswana go home for the holiday, and petty thieves are amongst those who go home. Burglaries, car break-ins, and attacks on unsuspecting pedestrians seem to be on the rise!That is not all, as scammers continue to take money from pensioners as well as other Batswana who may fall prey to their unscrupulous tactics....
