Only in sports will you find joy and sadness in the same space – joy for the winning team and sadness for the losers.
Last Saturday, Platinum Heathens supporters were over the moon after their team took the Nile Special Rugby Championship, leaving Stanbic Black Pirates fans devasted with the loss at Kyadondo Rugby grounds.
Platinum Heathens won the game with two points over their rivals. The tight game between the two rival clubs had Heathens earning 15 points while Pirates only managed 13 points. The winners and losers, however, had something to smile about at the end of the evening – great performances from Fik Fameica and Warafiki girl group.
But before then, Etania had hyped up the fans with some Amapiano vibes and her session was different from previous deejays who played at the event, including Ken the DJ, DJ Essmatic, Duke Play, Bexxx DJ and DJ Kenzil.
Etania did three things at a time; deejaying, emceeing and dancing but it was mostly her dance moves that the crowd was most interested in.
At 9pm, Fenon Event’s trio Warafiki took to the stage. Despite their short catalogue, they have truly mastered their stage performance. Seeing their dance routines while doing their Bwekati and Tetubafanana songs, you would think they have been in the game for long yet this is just their second year on the music scene.
Fik Fameica came on stage 10 minutes after the trio and the reception he received showed how rugby fans are passionate about music the same way they are about sports.
To keep the crowd energised, all the songs Fik Fameica performed were high tempo. From Omu Bwati, Majje, Buligita, Bwepaba, and Stylo Nta to Mafia, among others.
Throughout his performance, the crowd was on its feet, dancing and singing along. They even followed suit when he asked them to wave whatever they had in their hands on the last song he did.

Because the venue offers so much more than a rugby field, revellers and fans switched to drinking, jamming to music from resident deejays while others lined up for the Michael’s signature skewers.
