This was Bad Bunny’s first concert in Ecuador in 2017

Pre-sale of tickets for the Bad Bunny concert, scheduled for March 16 in Quito, ended in sold out this weekend. I mean, all sold. Apparently, many have wanted to see live the interpreter of Dakiti, whatever it takes. The first locations to sell out were precisely the most expensive and therefore the most desired: La Playa Experiencia, $260; Yoganui, $230; and Dakiti Golden, $185, each of which promises to be able to see the Puerto Rican rapper closer than the other.

In social networks, many regret not having obtained their “golden” ticket to enjoy the artist of the moment in person, who are even asking for a second date through the label #BadBunnySecondDateGuayaquil. The regret is even greater when they remember that there was a time when dancing to the rhythm of Bad Bunny was much more affordable, closer and just as formidable.

Virtual users these days have brought to light what was the first presentation of the singer, whose real name is Benito Martínez. He was part of the show called The bosses of the trap, which brought together other representatives of the urban genre of that time, such as Noriel and D-enyel and nationals Johnny Lexus and Mafer Pérez, who at that time called himself Nanda on stage. The event took place on the esplanade for car fairs in Mucho Lote (Av. Francisco de Orellana, in front of Las Orquídeas).

The urban rhythm kept the night lit for several hours, with those present chanting each of the songs. But the furor died down when a group of people tried to force their way into the compound. Although the uniformed Police prevented them from passing, the relaxed began to throw a rain of stones and bottles, which disturbed the attendees as well as the artists.

According to a publication by Foros Ecuador, the tickets for that concert ranged between $21 —the cheapest— and $51 —the most expensive—, the one that allowed them to see it in the front row. At that time, Bad Bunny had already positioned i’m worse, tell them, for you.

The Guayaquil native Gabriel Fernández, who enjoyed one of Bad Bunny’s concerts in the United States on the tour the last tour of the world, as his latest album is called, recalls the presentation in Mucho Lote. “I had already tried to go to a Bad Bunny concert twice before. The first was a few meters from my house, in Mucho Lot, over there, when the creator of hits global, like Dakiti or Yonaguni, It was not the world giant that it is now”, says the young man.

“But, for my safety, I preferred not to attend that event, which did not turn out the way I would have liked to experience it.”
