Emotional: Midnite gives its final performance in Brasil for a privileged few! Check it out!
When the announcement was given that the last presentation of Midnite would be on Hole Club, some even doubted so good that it was the news. Anyone who didn't suspect was surprised by the choice of the place. For those who do not know, Hole Club is a house located in the Jardins region, a noble area of São Paulo, and has a completely alternative programming philosophy. The main detail is the size of the house: stocking with about 500 people. For this historical presentation of the Midnite, scheduled for September 28, many paid more than usual to see the "prophets" of the Ilhas Virgens closely, but not enough to fill the "BURACO". Nevertheless, those who were felt the tuning in the air. Opening the performances of the night, the band QG Imperial was support for the sound of Alexandre Cruz, Ms Ivy and Jimmy Luv, which left the Hole in "ballpoint". For this farewell show, many artists of the scene attended, such as Solano Jacob, Dada Yute, Aline Duran, Lei di Dai, and in discotheque the selects Chars and Tux, who did not let the sound cease running always the best of the world root reggae. After opening presentations, the instrument exchange was performed on stage, increasing the anxiety of the public. By the time bassist Ron Benjamin showed up, a riot started. Not long after, the Midnite began its "session of hypnotism".

MIDNITE'S MANTRA

Imagine seeing Midnite, a band with enough sound to fill large houses in such a small place. Did you? It was indescribable. Seeing the irreducible posture of Vaughn Benjamin, and the joy/delivery of Ron Benjamin so closely, was something really special. In the release of "LIVE 94117", the song "Rastaman Still Stand" already left its message: the night would be WEIGHT! "Bushman", impressive sound from the album "Unpolished", made the crowd vibrate, especially at the beginning of the execution when the Vaughn brothers and Ron Benjamin began to recite a kind of modern poetry, which basically spoke of world changes. Still in "LIVE 94117", "Listen" and "Proceed" punished the sound boxes of the house. Sly was pure concentration on the battery, while Ron Benjamin danced, smiled, jumped, felt... an evident and fascinating contrast, which also applied to Edmund Fieulleteau, Midnite base guitar that in this presentation took over the keyboards - almost an ice stone.
"Roll Call" was another person responsible for the already known "collective hypnotism", a natural effect that Midnite exerts on people leaving them stunned most of the show. The band Midnite returns home with duty accomplished due to the positive balance of the tour: album extremely publicized and in the mouth of the crowd, spectacular shows, and the title of being one of the best reggae root bands of today reinforced and assured.
