\u201cForget your worries and dance.\u201d My friend Bea and I sat and watched an absolute thrilled kid get the setlist from Ziggy Marley\u2019s show tonight. It was packed once again with an audience that didn\u2019t need anyone to tell them to sing along or \u201cif you know the words sing along.\u201d Ziggy Marley, his band, and amazing background singers would start just a little bit of a song, and the audience was singing.<\/p>\n

Ziggy Marley paid full tribute to his legendary father, Bob Marley (Bob Marley & The Wailers for several songs). Bob Marley was born February 6, 1945 in Nine Mile, Jamaica. ( https:\/\/www.bobmarley.com\/<\/a> ) Bob Marley\u2019s influence is heard and felt.<\/p>\n

Ziggy Marley came out, and once again, Mother Nature made herself known but I think she felt the music and sent the moon out to watch over everyone. I must say my section did good, everyone was singing, and Ziggy thanked everyone, he was happy to sing his father\u2019s music. Ziggy Marley did the tour in honor of Bob Marley\u2019s 75th<\/sup> birthday. Ziggy Marley has an amazing career of his own, and some of the best music. Ziggy has also collaborated with Willie Nelson who also headlined at Musikfest 2022.<\/p>\n

A dollar from each ticket will go to the\u00a0 http:\/\/www.urgefoundation.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Ziggy Marley is a musician and philanthropist. The man can create and make music. He paid so much respect to his band and singers. He pointed out each music.<\/p>\n

Ziggy had Kazayah open the show. She was incredible with her drummer, and guitar\/bass player. She hyped the crowd up for Ziggy although he didn\u2019t truly need it. People were just elated. So many people had Jamaican flags, beautiful outfits, and just what seemed love to spread. I never forget how much I love concerts, being together with hundreds or thousands of people, you talk to the people next to you, in front of you, behind you.<\/p>\n

You may even meet some new friends, run into old friends and Hi Marian in the next section. (Marian\u2019s section did good with their singing.) Concerts are amazing. There is nothing like them. Singing with people you\u2019ve never met, some you have met, everyone was sweating, just a bunch of sweaty, happy, some tearful people. People FELT THE LOVE. Many of Bob Marley\u2019s emphasize love and unity, Ziggy made sure to point that out. Ziggy\u2019s own songs are based on love and happiness.<\/p>\n

His voice is soothing, he is so into the music, I think he just is in his own world but well aware of what\u2019s going on. He performed everything from \u201cRastaman Vibration\u201d (Bob Marley & The Wailers), \u201cI Shot the Sheriff\u201d (The Wailers cover), \u201cGet Up, Stand Up\u201d, and THE WHOLE AUDIENCE GOT UP!<\/p>\n

\u201cJamming\u201d, we we\u2019re all Jamming. You could that feel that in your soul. \u201cZion Train\u201d, \u201cComing in from the Cold\u201d, \u201cIs This Love\u201d, \u201cOne Love\u201d, \u201cCould You Be Loved\u201d.<\/p>\n

Ziggy Marley and his band left the stage causing the audience to start the CHANT. I love a good CHANT, and he came back out for that encore that we all love so much. To hear an entire chanting, \u201cZiggy, Ziggy, Ziggy\u2026\u201d I\u2019m pretty sure all of Bethlehem heard it, and Ziggy heard it, even though I\u2019m sure he was coming back out anyway. I\u2019ve been to enough concerts to know that build up, it was POWERFUL though.<\/p>\n

He didn\u2019t have to ask anyone to sing along though, people were singing before he even came out. Bob Marley loved love and Ziggy Marley shares his love of love. Remember, \u201cLove is my Religion\u201d says it all. One of his best songs is \u201cGarden Song of Miracles\u201d, it shows his love of love and the planet, his family and music. One Love to you Ziggy Marley, and One Love to Bethlehem, and Musikfest 2022.<\/p>\n
