When we drove away, people started cheering even louder, although we did not expect that way to get into the news – says the musician. – Of course, there were suspicions that the speech will be perceived as a violation, but the maximum will be asked to leave. And we would quietly came and went. Just miss the hell outta the public. Yes, perform at private events, give online concerts, but with the live energy of the audience is not compared.
