the Audience had more difficult: to arrive at such open-air only machines. To watch concerts, opening Windows and door – allowed. To go out and go to meet the neighbors – no, But, as we all missed the music! Stars as told the Explorer, “RG” promoters, almost did not put high demands on the fees, and the guards were removed the audience”birds” even from the trunk of a car.
Maybe so from two musical car festival kicked off at the same time! One – in Moscow “Luzhniki”, where sang The Hatters and Zivert, another – in Moscow “Yahroma”, which was set up to Garik Sukachev and Grigoriy Leps. The first open-air was worthy, in the normal mode – as it should be “capital event.” But the regulars of “Invasion”, “Wild mint” and “black earth” – the fans who love not only music, but also long routes, communication, and romantic trips, and popular events went to Moscow Yakhroma.
After all, the chief producer of the Live Drive was the Creator of the iconic open-air “Kubana” Ilya Ostrovsky, and among the masters of sound, light and stage facilities were promised to the specialists who made a “Invasion”, “the Afisha picnic in Kolomenskoye”, the festival in the Green theater Gorky Park. Of course, the Explorer, “RG” drove it to Portland, having phoned in advance with old friends, and someone again came to us from other cities. And as we drove 46 kilometers along the Dmitrovskoe highway to the North, almost in route in the Big Zavidovo, then spoke, though now only on mobile phones.
Everything, to be honest, it was a little scary and not understand: how is listening to music, sitting in the heat in a stuffy car? Yes for such money? Because the cheapest ticket cost 10 thousand rubles, although there were quite comfortable for 100… But is the ticket price for the entire car, which typically holds five people.
But still the everlasting love of rock and travel drove us forward on the highway!
Then it was like “Invasion”: ticket inspection, inspection viewers, salons and trunks of cars… Then the results of bracelets and finally, regulators in gloves and masks, said, what to take… the Area was spacious and paved. Involuntarily I remembered how to rain we were stuck in the Big Zavidovo. Then, to get out of the mud, on the first day it was possible to hire a tractor-tug at the local mechanics for three thousand rubles. In the second and third service “centralized” expelled “natives” and sent technique “from the center”, but had to pay for five thousand.
Well, the auditorium was planned very wise: each machine could see the stage and two huge screen at the edges (to “Invasion” or “Wild mint” they are smaller).
the Trail disappeared and the third the fear experienced “a great number of fans” to get out of their cars only allowed in the toilet, but if you opened the door or stood, listening to the concert, about his car – none of the guards were outraged. But to stand beside him in a folding chair or a cot (there was in fact such a wise man.) was already forbidden. They were asked to remove, although none of the “room” as punishment, of course, was not expelled.
But by mid-concert, no one bothered to listen to the songs and browsing, dancing on the roofs of their cars. Went pretty girls, which you can order food and drinks. So Ilya Ostrovskiy has done it again with the solution of domestic and creative concerns great. Many newly regretted that “Cubana” no longer exists, alas.
the First came on the scene Garik Sukachev, with the programme of the jubilee tour GO! With his brave band and long time friends bassist Sergei Galanin (in the 80s they played together in “the Brigade”) and guitarist Sergei Voronov (and with it already “Neprikasaemye” 90). He sang songs from the new album “246” , “Mother, goodbye” and “tango Gitanes”. Given its hysterical, emotional, sad hit song from “ten” – “Bird”, devoted to memory of Dmitry Pevtsov son of Daniel… and then still encouraged the audience: “We live guys, let’s live!” then I switched to a rock ballad from the 80’s “Olga”, dedicated to his beloved and the only one all these years his wife.
Browser “RG” in the 90s has organized several large-scale rock festivals, including “Rock against drugs” in Kazakhstan. The stars, the front men, we were allowed for free to take with you and one person. Someone drove one (saying: “to Tula with his samovar not travel”), someone with a girlfriend, and only one Garik – always with his beloved wife Olga. Together they have over forty years! Therefore, when the Sukachev soon shouted from the stage: “long live love!” – of course, I believe it!
After Garik Ivanovich knows what he says! And for the words always answer. Now and in the 80-90, trail was just a block hits from those years: “the White cap”, “song of the Arrow” (“Bella Ciao”), later – “My grandmother smokes a tube”….
the Sound was great, two screens worked perfectly, no one in a stuffy car is not driven, but the audience themselves understand the epidemiological situation – anywhere they did not leave. Therefore, from the excess of feelings and the abundance of positive emotions, someone started to push on the horn, encouraging the musicians with horns. Other artists may have strayed from the beat. But Garik Sukachev and his team, and such testing was not to confuse!
At the end of the show, the leader wished the audience “good Luck not the roads! Be careful not to break the speed limit!” Still, most of us were motorists.
Well, the next day a big solo concert gave Grigory Leps.
And now, the organizers promise to hold concerts Drive Live every weekend. Next two: July 10 – “spleen”, 11 July – Leonid Agutin.
