It has been almost 26 years since nostalgic Norwegian synth-pop band A-ha visited South African shores in 1994.
That’s why thousands of die-hard pop fans eagerly made their way to Marks Park in Emmarentia to see these 80s music icons once again during their Hunting High And Low live tour on 15 February.
Some fans who had come from across Gauteng for the show, proudly waved their old records, scrapbooks and ‘I-heart-A-ha’ banners in anticipation of the event.
Beforehand, fans were treated to a fine selection of local acts including Absinthe, James Deacon, Werner Bekker and Ard Matthews, frontman of Just Jinjer.
The sounds of Paul Waaktaar-Savoy, Magne Furuholmen and Morten Harket’s worldwide hits including Take on Me, The Sun Always Shines on TV, and the Living Daylights echoed across the hills and koppies, as the crowd cheer in excitement.
The concert organised by Howler Events ensured that the thousands of fans were more than catered for as they enjoyed an amazing selection of food and drink to keep them going while they enjoyed the music.
