Urban Desert Festival ‘08 with Akon, Fat Joe & Black Violin

Dubai hosted Akon, Fat Joe and Black Violin on the same stage for the Urban Desert Festival 2008 with and estimated attendance of 16,000 plus spectators.

As more and more artists and bands come in to Dubai, especially from the States side, they understand that Middle East is not about what they see on their TVs and Newspapers and Web Sites, it is more and progressing with lighting speed and style.

Organized by CSM and technical production by SLS Production, the event was a huge success, and I can say there were more people there than Desert Rock :)

And here are the pictures:

Despite all the digital gadgets available out there, I still love and enjoy an analog console at certain gigs. The trusted PM4000 is still going strong :)
