50 Cent Concert!
To celebrate the launch of IPKO's new mobile phone service, the company brought in rap superstars G-Unit (headed by 50 Cent) for a concert outside in the Pristina Stadium. I wonder if during the contract negotiation they told 50 that he'd be performing outside in the elements in freezing temperatures? Anyways, the concert was wild. It kicked off around 7pm with continuous Albanian rap groups until 9pm. Finally G-Unit came on stage (I don't think we or the rowdy crowd could handle any more of the local rappers selfless promotion). They performed before an estimated crowd of 20,000 people crammed into the stadium for about an hour before a very nice fireworks display that ended the concert.
