On the evening of July 2, Gazprom Arena will host the anniversary concert of the Earthlings group. In addition to the permanent Igor Romanov (vocals and guitar) and artistic director and drummer Vladimir Kiselyov, young members of the group vocalist Andrey Khramov and keyboardist Andrey Dubrovin will take the stage.
Viewers will be able to hear both the new songs of the band, and the cult “Grass at Home”, “Stuntmen”, “Karate”, and other famous hits, – says Channel 5.
At a press conference, Kiselyov explained to journalists why musicians do not seek to receive the title of “honored artists”
“You know, 60 thousand people will come, which may be more expensive than this. Paul McCartney, Honored Artist of the English Republic, sounds strange. More importantly, we have sold more than 20 million CDs. We had from 200 to 300 concerts a year. And now, Igor is 69 years old, he is still a boy. But these years we have gathered. I hope we won’t repeat the rolling path,” he said.
As the publication writes dp.ru , the ticket price is less than 100 rubles. According to Vladimir Kiselyov, the band wanted any fan of their work to be able to get to the concert, regardless of wealth. All proceeds will be transferred to the hospital in the city of Gorlovka in the DPR. We are talking about a not so small amount: several tens of thousands of spectators are expected at the concert.
The song “Grass at Home” is a hit that is still being sung, and Roscosmos recognized the composition as the anthem of the Russian space industry. According to a VTsIOM survey, almost half of Russians associate Russian cosmonautics with this song.
