OVER 5 000 PEOPLE gave new meaning to “people like sand” when they thronged Brandons Beach, St Michael, on Saturday to enjoy five hours of captivating gospel music.
From as early as 4:30 p.m., a sea of people engulfed the Brandons area by all means of transportation and took choice spots to enjoy the Sunset Gospel Show sponsored by the St Michel North West Development Council.
When Kritojay Paul took to the stage just after 5 p.m., the crowd was already in a worship mode. Hours later, when Jamaican Junior Tucker closed the event, the worshippers still had enough energy to follow suit in dancing, waving and singing to the contagious lyrics and tunes.
The gem of the night was the presentation from the popular Bridget Blucher who interspersed many of her hit tunes with medleys and lifted the crowd when she declared that she could not come to Barbados without going “old school”. (KB)
