Mario has left Port Moresby fans mesmerized after a stunning performance last night at the Cosmopolitan.

The Vision City complex was packed to capacity with many taxis and vehicles congesting traffic along the Waigani drive as early as 7pm yesterday.

The crowd of over a thousand were pre-entertained with local vocals by Alison Joyce belting out R&B hits and popular Animal Audio with their hit Come retire with me that got the crowd on the dance floor.

New York-based DJ Vicious scratched his disks to welcome Mario to a screaming house.

“I never knew Papua New Guinea, but coming here has made me love PNG…PNG I love you,” said Mario on stage before belting out his first hit Crying out for me.

His performance got the crowd going when he invited a group of fans on stage to share Champaign and dance on stage with him.

Mario brought some fans, especially young girls, to tears when he reached out for them to touch his hand during his performance.

But the best was reserved for the last when he sang his popular hit You should let me love you that got everyone singing.

Most fans described the concert as the best they have been to saying their money was worth the concert.

Paula Regione, a fan who caught Mario’s shirt when he took it off and threw it into the crowd, said she won’t be washing the shirt, adding “I will make sure I frame this shirt and have it on my wall.”

Mario departed Port Moresby this morning for New Zealand to continue his Soul Truth tour.
