“When the Armageddon dark and dread, a lot of weak hearted weep and moan… only the strong will continue.”

This and other intense messages will reverberate throughout the Ranny Williams Entertainment Centre when the curtains go up for the second annual staging of Carlyle Foundation’s Life Fest Peace & Love Concert 2010 tonight.

It is all systems go for Jazmine Sullivan to “bust the windows out your car” and for Queen Ifrica to take you on a journey to Montego Bay. The every energetic Alison Hinds will show us why she is the self-proclaimed Caribbean Queen as I-Octane will take us on a musical journey through coronation market. The ever electrifying King Shango is sure to keep the fire blazing as the triple threat Konshens, Chino and Laden represent for the new ‘skool’ and show us why they are the best.

Other acts for the night are sure to keep the high energy flowing throughout the proceedings with patrons receiving value for money.
