The combination of Earth, Wind and Fire's dynamic stage presence and Steve Harvey's hilarious jokes made the final night of the Bermuda Music Festival the most entertaining.

Having attended the music festival since Thursday night, I had absorbed the atmosphere Lionel Richie brought, the great show Natasha Bedingfield delivered and Smokey's love songs.

I expected nothing less than the best for the final night. And I wasn't disappointed.

I arrived about 8 p.m., a little earlier than the nights before to make sure I was able to soak everything in.

I was surprised by the insane amount of people lingering around. (I was told over 6,000 tickets had been sold plus all the invited guests and VIP's).

As I made my way over to the VIP area, it seemed like more and more people were filling the stadium all excited to witness the magic Earth, Wind and Fire is known to bring to stage.

So let's start from the beginning.

The minute the original King of Comedy stepped on stage, the crowd erupted in laughter from beginning to end.

The man has an extraordinary ability to make everyone laugh which is ingenious.

Mr. Harvey started off by complaining about our sidewalks. "You all need to use some of the tourism money to build a sidewalk.

"All these bushes on the side of the road. Take the wall back", he said.

He switched his material and started talking about motorbikes and tourists riding them.

"If you know you can't ride a bike in America, why would you rent one in Bermuda? Your wife is following your stupid ass all swerving and s***", he laughed.

The comic went on to say scooters only come in two speeds, lawn mower and weed eater and started talking about overweight people riding bikes.

"One more thing, there's gotta be a weight limit. Your wide ass got no business on a scooter and you ain't got your money right so you got the weed eater version and the scooter is crying. Get your fat a** in a cab".

Mr. Harvey carried on with making fun of the long walk to Horseshoe Bay from Fairmont Southampton by saying tourists need to be told the beach is four days away.

He said: "I like coming to country's to tell them what's wrong so they can fix it for next year".

The comic talked about visiting Jamaican Grill on Court Street and was upset about being taken to the hood.

"We from America. We know what the hood looks like. I went to the Jamaican restaurant today and when I got out I was scared to death. What you mean back town, I want to go to front town".

Mr. Harvey also said Bermudians need a dish other than fish chowder and suspected it came out of the can because it tastes the same everywhere.

He said: "I don't give a damn if ya'll don't laugh, my cheque's the same. Matter fact, I got it already".

Towards the end of his act, Mr. Harvey was reading a list of sponsors and when he read T.H.E. or Tourism Helps Everyone he said: "If you live here" and called it pimping. Mr. Harvey left to stage with much applause.

Premier Dr. Ewart Brown announced the band and to my surprise, they came on only minutes after Mr. Harvey finished.

The other nights there were long pauses between acts.

And when they hit the stage at 9.45 p.m., they were definitely worth the wait.

Original members, Maurice White, Verdine White and Phillip Bailey, came on stage with the rest of the band jamming from beginning to end performing hit after hit.

The crowd was on their feet until the last song loving every minute of the performance.

Earth, Wind, and Fire were clothed in white from head to toe and performed songs like 'Sing a Song', 'Devotion', and 'Shining Star'.

There were breaks in between songs which allowed different band members to do solos.

One of the original members, Mr. White did an amazing bass solo with his usual energy.

There was an incredible keyboard solo where the keyboardist used a lot of techniques and sounds on the board to make it even better.

The Russian guitarists played an amazing Spanish-style solo which had some people up on their feet dancing Salsa.

It was also great to see that the female vocalist was also a drummer at some points of the night.

The night switched from upbeat party songs when the voice of the group, Phillip Bailey, took the mic and performed ballad and ballad.

Mr. Bailey's voice sounds like it hasn't aged in the 35 years the band has been performing.

He hit high note after high which created tremendous applause from the audience.

He sang 'I'll Write a Song for You', 'After the love is gone', 'Reasons', 'Got to get you in my life', 'Keep your Head to the Sky' and so much more.

Then the vibe switched to a bunch of funk songs which I'm far too young to know the names, but I was singing along and partying with the older folk.

An amazing fireworks display ended the show with everyone wanting more.

I must say, I had a great time the past few nights at my first Bermuda Music Festival.

If the entertainment is as good next year as it was this year, I'll definitely be back.
