Seen 'N' Heard

Lil Za, a good friend of Justin Bieber,is being held by police after a morn-ing raid found copious amounts of

drugs in plain sight around the houseIt’s a good thing that Justin wasn’t at

home on Tuesday, January 14th, 2014, aspolice raided his house following thealleged egging of his next door neigh-bour’s house to find evidence linking himto the felony vandalism charge. Ratherthan find a factory’s worth of eggs at thescene, LAPD officers found somethingmuch more illegal: lots of drugs.According to a report, Bieber’s

Calabasas home was raided in the earlyhours of Tuesday morning, with policehaving obtained a search warrant in orderto check for evidence stemming from hisegg attack. As stupid as this sounds, there is actu-

ally reasoning behind the search, themain two being that police were aftervideo evidence possibly in the Bieberhomestead - with cops taking his homesurveillance system with them - andchecking to see if the eggs in his homematch the same type used against theneighbouring house.

Initially, considering the lines ofdust to be cocaine, police have nowdetermined that the drugs kept inplain sight, within the house, wereactually MDMA, but whatever it wasthat police found it doesn’t spell goodnews for Bieber’s crony, Lil Za. The terribly-named ‘rapper’ friend

of Biebs was linked directly to thedrugs and thrown in jail with a$20,000 bail being set.As the drugs were found during a

felony raid, any charges made bypolice are totally warranted and eventhough they aren’t linked to the initialinvestigation, cops were able to prose-cute Za with full legal backing.Whilst the police investigation con-

tinues, Bieber is keeping a low profileas he may possibly face a felony chargefor the vandalism act, which couldresult in him being thrown in jail.The police, they say, are determined

to link Biebs to the crime and see himface the consequences because they aresick of seeing him use his celebrity sta-tus to avoid legal action, as he has donein the past.

HEARD…his style is now beingrejected by his very own folks.

Staleness has now set in and notmany are keen to see him in action –describing his performance as‘antique.’

His name did absolutely nothing topull in the crowd on 31st night – withonly 20 tickets actually sold.

He is no more a drawcard – andthat’s for sure.

The key ingredient,in the success of ashow – especially

if it involves music – isthe production side.

The presentation hasto be such that theaudience would be keptat the edge of theirseat all the time. Andthis should be more soif one is celebrating abig moment in one’scareer.

Mirage, one of thebest outfits in the localshowbiz scene, cele-brated their 25anniversary, inDecember last year(2013).

They went aheadwith grandeur plans toensure that theanniversary concertstandout in every way.But, unfortunately, itdidn’t.

There were manyshortcomings, that par-ticular evening, thatturned, what shouldhave been a memorableevent, into a concertthat brought aboutboredom to many inthe audience.

Donald, Melantha,Benjy, Shafi and Manodgave a masterly display

of their musicalprowess on stage. Butthat is something weall experience whenev-er we visit theMargarita Blue.

The anniversary con-cert got off to a latestart – well after 8.00pm – and went on tillalmost 12 midnight.

I guess that is pre-cisely why the band,although brilliant on

stage, didn’t find theaudience screaming, orapplauding for ‘onemore’ at the end of theshow.

Most were wonderingwhen the show wasgoing to end and quitea few had already leftthe hall as the showmoved at a very slowpace.

It never got into topgear as the production

side lacked profession-alism.

The curtain raiserwasn’t boombastic, andit was not the startMirage wanted. Andthen the gaps betweensongs!

Costume changestook some time and thevideos that came in asfillers, did nothing togenerate any excite-ment.

Daniel O’ Donnell, now ahousehold name in SriLanka, will be featured

live in concert, in Colombo –courtesy of Gold FM.The singer will perform at the

Sri Lanka Exhibition &Convention Centre, in Colombo,on Saturday, March 23rd, 2014.O’ Donnell’s music has been

described as a mix of countryand Irish folk and he has a bigfan base in Sri Lanka.Yes, his Colombo concert is

certain to draw a full house, but afull house could also result insome of the audience beinginconvenienced – like it hap-pened at the Cliff Richard con-cert and at the recent Isla and AlGrant show – as the SLECC is notthe best place for musical shows.

Noeline herself isa legend and I’msure if she wasupfront she wouldhave been able tominimize the bore-dom.

Some of thegroup’s ardent fans,who were at theconcert, told TheIsland’s Star Trackthat they were verydisappointed withthe whole setup.
