M I D N I T E [last hour of set]

Midnite Live at the Northwest World Reggae Festival 2014
This is a clip of the last hour of an almost 5 hour set -

[@ChroniclesofAlicha_Balaam]

That smile at 29:06 just Wow...this man emmanated pure love from his very Being. I was there this night. My first introduction to Midnite. I ran from my camp at the first notes. It was love at first sound. Five hours of Pure Bliss. The Heavens literally opened up that night. LIttle did I know my introduction to Midnite would be short-lived as they disbanded only few months later after 25 years of gracing us with the most amazing and profound music. 70 plus albums over 25 years is incredible. I was privelged to be able to film him as Akae Beka in Humboldt County (my Home town and stomping grounds) in May of 2019 and saw him again at my favorite beach, Moonstone Beach (which I had suggested to the promoters back in May as a place that would be amazing to host him at). I was not allowed to record that night but it was a magical September Full Moon, and the next day he went up to Williams, Oregon, where he put on an incredible concert at the same community where he had come out as Akae Beka five years earlier. Full Circle,. Less than two months later we would lose this Giant. I cried everyday for a year. I cry dry tears...Still. Rest in Power, Great One. Love and miss thee foriver, Ras Vaughn Benjamin. Thank u for the gifts, King!!! Word, Sound and Power, Beloveds. Chaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Up up 2022!!!

[@rootsreggae4life]

[@rastabrendolion2110]

@rootsreggae4life all Midnite shows in Brazil were at most 2 hours with no chance of playing 5 hours ...

[@gazmazkOG]

[@goretti-canterburg-rainfor9813]

Great footage man God bless , IAM too late for midnite. Real reggae music here. 🎶🎤

[@jahineverybody]

For Isra-el !!! Haven't heard a full band version of Beta Israel in looong time. Like at least 6-7 years. And what a massive version, what an offering, what a band, SELAH!

[@chappahx]

What a phenomenal roots reggae band! How does one memorize so much stuff!!!???

[@thedaverc1]

chappahx he doesn’t bro... lyrics consistently change (adding verses from other songs) every time they perform(ed)... 😔 I get what you are saying... Vaughn has dropped more knowledge on me in 20 years than I could ever learn in a lifetime... grateful to share the same time and space with Midnite in this human existence! Peace brother!

[@iriereviews]

@@thedaverc1 Same person here as Chappahx. I get that there is improvisation on some tunes but there's still quite a bit from memory.

[@thedaverc1]

Fair enough... agreed! Peace

[@Unkn.9wn]

Vaughn Benjamin is no ordinary singer.. he is a scholar before a singer.. a historian before a lyricist.. a wordsmith before a wordplayer.. there is nobody like him.. & there is no band like Midnite.. their flow in these 4 hour or 5 hour sets is unparalleled by all bands worldwide.. this is an experience not just a concert.. a healing in the form of waves & vibrations.. the sounds from heaven.. transmuted by carbon organisms we love & cherish

[@kerrykennedy9495]

[@NowInIwoN]

A recording of the full set would be magical. Were you not able to recrled the first few hours? I'm sure it can be tough to record when not knowing how long the musical soul lifting messages will be expressed. Amazing sound and sight. Thank you for your efforts.

[@betotvboneco9387]

É um reggae q não machuca os ouvidos e a batida do prato caracteriza essa banda

[@joaorasnazireuguilherme1465]

E pra mim ela pros cara tem um proposito,eu acho,pq em Rastafari,a bateria sao como armas,tipo tanque,metralhas,etc.aquela batida no prato que ele fica a maior parte do tempo tocando,soa um som de espadas se batendo.

[@joaorasnazireuguilherme1465]

E transcendental!

Did you ever post all parts?

[@vidbybill]

+Jason Dodge no, I do hope to one day. I need to recover some lost data on the memory card I used. it is doable, but i need to find the right person to recover the data. for instance .. I have multiple files.. each file has I think - an mp4 file... and also a corresponding .xml file. file 1.mp4 + file 1.xml , file 2.mp4 + file 2.xml ... and so on. in a later file I have the .mp4 portion but no corresponding .xml file. == need to find the Keyman!

[@tiago6047]

Hello Bill! Great work! Did you find the keyman? In this time, all we need a wash in soul... Please, give us some midnite! Brasilians natty watching you... Bless and love
