Buju Banton to perform at concert!

Mega reggae star Mark "Buju Banton" Myrie won his appeal against a motion that denied him the right to perform at a concert that was filed back on November 23, 2010 which was dismissed by United States Judge Anthony Porcelli under the grounds that the artist was a flight risk..

On, December 1, 2010 in a ruling made by Judge James Moody addressed the issue by stating that Mark  Myrie was no longer a flight risk once he was released on bail so the previous ruliing was overturned.

Buju Banton's Attorney David Oscar Markus stated that he was grateful for the ruling which would allow his client to be able to earn an income which is much needed to pay for his security detail which is costing Buju some US$20,000 monthly.

The concert to be named "Before The Dawn" which is being produced by Rockers Island will be held at the Bayfront Amphithearte in downtown Miami on Biscayne Blvd. Sunday January 16, 2011.

Buju Banton was incarcerated for eleven months at Pinellas County Jail in Tampa Florida after he was picked up at his home in Tamarac Florida shortly after the arrest of James Mack and Ian Thomas during a sting operation in Saratoga Florida while attempting to purchase a controlled substance.

Buju Banton's Latest album "Before The Dawn" is among the nominees for best Reggae Album for next years Grammy Awards.
