    IT was a day of fun on Sunday, December 8 as popular street music merchant, Terry G, together with DJ maestro and DJ Neptune, turned the capacity-filled Star Beer Village into a music carnival of sorts.

    Guests began filling the seats by 3.00 pm, two hours earlier than the 5.00pm scheduled opening, in anticipation of what the organizers had earlier promised would be a ‘thrilling time’.

    MC and comedian, Funny Bone, kept excited fans at the edge of their seats with his unique combination of rib-cracking jokes and teasing rejoinders, while DJ Neptune ensured that he stepped up the momentum several notches, as he brought his superb skills to play on the turntable. His non-stop mix of popular songs elicited resounding cheers from the crowd who refused to reclaim their seats throughout the event.

    However Terry G’s appearance turned Eko Atlantic into a dancehall with the crowd surging repeatedly towards the stage to catch a glimpse of the popular performer, whose sheer energy dominated every inch of the massive stage and beyond, as he dished out Akpako, Oluwa, Oga and other popular hits.

    Aside from other surprise star performers and celebrity guests who will also be a part of the Lagos Countdown, the Star Beer Village will also offer top- of- the- line music competitions, concerts, games and many more exciting attractions through the duration.

    The Star Beer Village is one of the highlights of the 2nd Lagos Countdown, which holds at Eko Atlantic from December 8 to 29 December.
