Second day of festival Rock in Rio Lisboa and warmth to those who makes you want to say stupid things – so it was the 20th of May.
As happened yesterday and will happen in the coming days, the music journey starts at 17 o’clock on the Vodafone stage. On this day, the opening was out of the rink, rock band anything difficult to define rock band that puts us dancing, screaming PULLING and to realize who are the coolest dudes of Portuguese music. Not caring about us so much with the sweat that drips on the forehead and invades the body. As always, the track, which now were accompanied by Nick Nicotine down throughout the concert and Alex D’Alva Teixeira to sing some songs, gave a concert friendly, festive and full of his rock unashamed to know the summer and happiness.
It was the example (such as The Sunflowers we were the day before) that a lot of people to make the party is not accurate. highlights include the aforementioned PULLS , Salt Hand , Campipraia and Queraute . the latter, a version even more frantic and fast than usual, closed the concert the upper hand.
following the track and the imperial increasingly useful to give breath against hot afternoon, arrive the village-condenses Sensible Soccers. and if at first glance almost always instrumental music, layers and against layers, seemed to fit the space, the truth is that created a beautiful blend of heat, the beginning of the evening and a sunset that is one of the great headliners Rock in Rio . in the middle of numbness in the music of Sensible Soccers naturally falls in moments like Shampoo or under Evariste Dibo gave life and dance to the public. Only it lacked a bit of Suffering For You to the maximum score was.
However had already started another musical Rock in Rio, but judging by what happened, it seemed better to wait sitting by Boogarins to go sightseeing, subject to hearing that. And Boogarins did not take long. the Brazilian band, which debuted in Portugal in Musicbox in November last year, returned to Portugal to play and close the Vodafone stage.
the band brought to the stage the songs on two albums ( the Plants That Heal and Manual ) and counted right the first song – the single Avalanche – with the presence of a well composed and cooperative public a concert that he sinned by the sound quality, as. rest has been customary throughout the festival, the Brazilians did their job and they knew delight those who heard them, especially with songs like the aforementioned Avalanche , 6000 days or Lucifernandis .
At the same time, the World stage, which reborn phoenix from the ashes, appears Fergie . And with it the second time the Rock in Rio is the recovery of things that were lost in time: those spectacles of pop stars who were entitled to stops for change of clothes and video clips to pass the background while you “sing” songs . Fergie was all this and even entitled to two body parts to despair by air to breathe …
Unfortunately, just did not playback . Over an hour, a member of the Black Eyed Peas between outfit changes that were never able to respond to the needs of their bulges, was consecutively dispatching a series of songs that, over the years, were They are kept in secluded parts and little used (thankfully) of our memory. This is the case of London Bridge , Fergalicious , Glamorous or Big Girls Do not Cry. The lack of repertoire own, the artist responded to the sad decision to sing Start Me Up ( Rolling Stones) Black Dog (Led Zeppelin) and even Love is Pain (a kind of tribute to the recently deceased Prince ). Before concluding, still had time to open a mini session Black Eyed Peas to in medley, stroll through songs like My Humps, Rock That Body or Don ‘t Stop the Party . After that, he took one of the best decisions of the night and gave by finished the concert.
To continue to relive 2006, who followed was Mika . I do not know if all this happened because Fergie put all our expectations at the very least, but the truth is that the concert of this English born in Lebanon was of the best things themselves so far in the Rock in Rio . Mika , which performed in fact gala and with an absolutely irreproachable friendliness and was the great entertainer . night the man jumped, danced, ran and sang and all faults, including vocals, passed into the background because the artist was able to touch whom saw:. when he spoke in Portuguese example, when made a fado arrangement for song over My Shoulder or when brought Mariza to stage to do not really know what. throughout the concert was funny conclude that, in fact, Mika has more hit than we might think. Thus, it was delightful to hear songs like Big Girl , Grace Kelly, Relax or Love Today .
Select Mika to the opening of the concert more anticipated of the evening, the Queen + Adam Lambert made sense. And now only even lacked the arrival of the main course, which came with half an hour late. it is important to realize at once that what is going the watch was not a concert Queen , was a concert of Queen (represented by Brian May and Roger Taylor ) sung by Adam Lambert . Moreover, the singer was keen to make a difference when he said that Freddie Marcury there is only one.
in this sense, it was natural that the guitarist Brian May has taken on a more central role than would assume in the days when the singer was the gentleman’s mustache, with tank tops and with the voice he had. the legendary guitarist paced the stage, sang, communicated with the public and even a film camera was mounted on the head of his guitar.
The concert was, without taking or putting a parade of great successes of Queen a best of live, a gift to those of his time and a treasure for those who are my age. It started fast and the first great moments of the evening were Stone Cold Cray and Killer Queen . After that, between images of Freddie to sing on the big screens, fancy solos of May and several Lambert of clothes (this should be a rule to this day, because I Mika also did), the public had a right to hear and sing songs like under Pressure, I Want to Break Free, Crazy Little Thing Called Love or impressive and appropriate the Show Must Go on (see setlist below). For the encore were reserved Radio Ga Ga, We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions .
Adam Lambert is an accomplished singer who was given the thankless task of singing songs which once were sung by Freddie Mercury. you are wrong who think that it was like that. Because he had nothing to do, was not even close. And was not to be. like what happened to the AC / DC (although the circumstances are radically different) yesterday’s concert was not the disaster that many had predicted. And even if the only way we’re really close to the Queen has been through a giant screen, none of that there were may complain of what he saw:. a parade of legendary songs
