Things are certainly looking up for 80 year-old juju maestros,
Fatai Rolling Dollar. Coming after his successful Valentine
shindig held on February 16, 2008 at Orchid Le Tamariska in
Lekki, Lagos where he entertained married couples, lovers
and glitterati, the management of the outfit has now invited
him to perform there monthly.
Blockbuster learnt that arrangements have been concluded to
have the highlife crooner in the house every first Friday
of the month.
Fatai Rolling Dollar and Jimi Solanke will be in the house
every first Friday of every month, together with other hot
music acts, and comedians to thrill the A-list audience to
quality entertainment in a serene, cozy and comfortable environment
offered by Orchid Le Tamariska.
“My fans, in fact, the residents of Lekki/Ajah should
be prepared for a mega performance from me and my band members
in March and subsequent months ahead,” Rolling Dollar
stated.
According to a source, Orchid Le Tamariska, situated on Ameze
Osagie Street, beside Redeemed Christian Church of God, Lekki/Epe
Expressway, dwarfs all its competitors, in all aspects of
hospitality.
“This is a top class celebrity rendezvous, where you
can enjoy good food, choice drinks and quality entertainment,”
the source explained.
At the Valentine party, which drew quality guests from all
over Lagos, Rolling Dollar gave a good account of himself.
With two beautiful damsels, who equally gave a good account
of themselves as good dancers, the octogenarian has pleasant
accomplices in delivering a total entertainment package.
The highlife giant mounted the stage some few minutes to 11pm,
and performed till early morning the next day. Starting with
a number laced with a heavy but soothing percussive beat,
he gradually moved to some easy flow numbers and this could
only draw more applause from the ever appreciative audience.
Pa Rolling Dollar threw the audience into excitement when
he sang some of his hit numbers such as Wasaba, Agidigbo,
Isale Eko, Won Kere Si Number Wa among others, as some of
them got on the stage to join him in the fun.
