Brandy South Africa Stadium Concert Empty! Why Only 40 People Showed Up For Johannesburg Nelson Mandela Tribute

Brandy may not be performing in South Africa again anytime soon. The singer held a stadium concert last weekend in a 90,000-seat arena in Johannesburg, but only 40 people showed up for the event! Brandy was performing as part of the Nelson Mandela Sport & Culture Day, but it seems that people didn’t want to stick around for the concert. The singer only performed two songs before leaving the stage.
Concert promoters claim the crowd wasn’t aware Brandy would be performing and therefore decided to leave after a long day. “It was late. People didn’t know there was a concert after the games,” @kabamo tweeted. “No one knew Brandy was around. Maybe a 40 people audience.”

And she left after doing only 2 songs........

I once went to see Mac Wiseman at a festival, and it had rained hard all day, and it was an outdoor show and only about 40 to 50 people were present.......
His first word were " I have played to larger crowds and I have to admit to playing to smaller crowds, but you're gonna get the best damn show I can do " Or words to that effect....
And he did put on a good show and I have the video to prove it.........

A total professional

Well clearly Mac Wiseman doesn't have what it takes to be a diva then.

Well, y'know. 500 cable channels. Gotta fill 'em up with something.

EDITED TO ADD: Sorry, that was a reference to Brandy, not to Mr. Wiseman. As you said, professionals. They play the room. No matter what.

After 15 years I wasn't sure I had quoted him exactly so I pulled out of my library the video I had taken that day and listened to it, then decided to upload the first ten minutes to youtube. right up to where he is a mite more colourful in his wording

Your memory is a hell of a lot better than mine! I usually can't remember what I've had for breakfast, lol.

I can't listen at work, but I'll give a listen when I get home.

One band that enjoyed....maybe for first two numbers they played were the stringdusters, not because they are bad musicians....they are excellent...maybe even too far ahead in their craft.
They start one of their own tunes and if you haven't heard it four or five times, you can't tell where they are going with it...seems to be all improvisation...
