As the date beckons for the highly anticipated jazz event in the country, the Hamptons Jazz Festival, Staff Writer THALEFANG CHALRES caught up with Debbie Smith, one of the show promoters.

After rescheduling the appointment because there was an emergency meeting with one of the sponsors, we finally meet with Hamptons Jazz Festival organiser and promoter Debbie Smith at the Grand Palm Hotel in Gaborone.

One of her phones, a small Samsung, rings before we could finish the small talk about the Gaborone heat and traffic. She apologises before saying it is an important call from one of the sponsors and she had to answer it. After a brief business call she apologises once again, adding that calls on the Samsung are important and that is why she can only afford to switch off the iPhone. Throughout the interview we had to deal with such important calls.
