Organisers of the show promised that he would not disappoint his legion of fans as he will be playing tracks from his latest album that he is working on.

Macheso’s band manager William Tsandukwa said they were working hard preparing for the Bulawayo show. He said the gig would be the last in the city for 2014 before they return mid next year.

“As a band we are working on entertaining our supporters in Bulawayo, but this will be last show in the City of Kings as we are working hard on regional and international tours ahead of us in 2015,” he said.
