As members of '[[Eagles Lupopo Band]]' they sang 'patriotic songs' praising President [[Kenneth Kaunda]] and commenting on various social issues. The Eagles Lupopo toured Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi and Zambia more frequently and in 1975, during a show at Lusaka’s [[Woodlands Stadium]], the stage was overrun by enthusiastic fans forcing the organisers to abruptly halt the show. Fans refused to accept the decision to stop the show and became unruly, causing a riot in which all the band’s equipment was completely destroyed. | As members of '[[Eagles Lupopo Band]]' they sang 'patriotic songs' praising President [[Kenneth Kaunda]] and commenting on various social issues.
