but on the eve of the people’s artist told the Explorer, “RG” about the upcoming concert, new songs, dreams about travelling without a tour, and for that he was angry with the family during isolation, and about why the most successful can become a concert, which was given crutches….
You give the first solo concert in June 12. Wanted to sing on the Day of Russia or podgadat with a concert by the time many limitations due to the coronavirus in Moscow was taken?
Oleg Gazmanov: I this date was chosen, everything was spontaneous. I received an invitation from the platform OKKO and am very happy, because my musicians are hungry for work and eager for the fight. And now have the opportunity to get together and play. To show what we’re capable of. And the second point is that intuitively, I felt the end of the quarantine. To be honest, it is strange, I somehow developed this intuition here. I wrote the song “lights out”, and started the quarantine. (Laughs). By the way, when this video came out, people started asking me questions on social networks about how I managed to predict? Well, it’s time to write the song “Rise”. (Laughs again).
In General, with the date thing happened. Or maybe, the organizers foresaw that, probably, I belong on this day?! But I never thought about it. Although, when I found out that the concert will be on June 12, partially changed the track list. On this day all the media and all concerts, speeches are about the Day of Russia. So I honestly would not want to have all my concert was exactly that. Although, of course, I’ll sing some songs that people might want to hear that day.
But mostly the track list is the songs that we sang in our extreme tour. We are sure in it and me and my team. And well all do.
And the artists themselves as more interesting to perform live in front of an audience when present and the inevitable excitement or the Internet, when you yourself do not see anyone, not hear, but needs to answer questions from the audience, why unwittingly break the pace of the show?
Oleg Gazmanov: Yes, there are features at the show, when it is interactive. By the way, I can’t even get yet to say exactly 100% what will be the song. Although those without which I cannot speak, of course, will be. I have often given concerts in isolation, my audience is used to them. But the audience, of course, easier. Because they support me, sing along and somehow charged. And I charge them.
There is another difference. Programs at concert venues, I sing more energetic songs, and during interactive fans are asked to perform more lyrical ballads (here and during this concert OKKO viewers will be able to ask the artist questions and to ask to sing at their request – Approx. Ed.). But in any case I will try to make everything better.
do you Have a great hit with the words: “I love girls, I will gather them together, along the line of the surf behind him will lead…” Sing it in this program? And in who and where you want as soon as possible “for him to withdraw” after the withdrawal is mostly over?
Oleg Gazmanov: I’m going to say about it. The fact that this song I don’t sing. She is one of my biggest hits that I wrote many years ago. Some of them perform the same. But if the choice is between “I like girls” and “Maraccas”, the “sailor” better is the audience. She better sing along. And Yes, I was lucky that many of my songs here are long lasting. Although “Fit” me, at times nauseated: how many million times I sing it?!
Therefore, the concerts of old hits I usually do one of these songs is flash mobs. But this time I will not have good feedback, and therefore, most likely, I’ll sing more songs that are rarely heard in my programs… and more ballads, I guess.
And finally: where and with whom are planning to go, to leave and what to do after the isolation?!
Oleg Gazmanov: my dream is to do what I think already many years. And I can’t seem to do it because I have a lot of touring. I want to just, without concerts, tour the country!
I really want to the far East, to Kamchatka, touring without fuss to see their amazing nature. Want to the Altai, I want to Crimea, but in Crimea I am quite often. This year I have scheduled the tour – I hope practice makes perfect with this quarantine, and they will be held.
I really want the Volga, we are all beautiful places… Want and on the lakes to drive. Last year was on lake Ritsa, and my wife and cupbord went there – in General, fine. For now, tune in to concert life… Want to catch a fly, to travel around the country.
Without the tour you will quickly find something to do? May have discovered new interests and Hobbies?
Oleg Gazmanov: You know, I have, oddly enough, had no time. Because I do different things.
first, I’m so used to be active all the time on tour, traveling and so on, and then I was at full gallop stopped – all of our group (laughs). My family, apparently, at first delighted that I at home.
And then they began to speak: “Dad, you’ve been on tour go?” And then I started to build: get up in the morning, do gymnastics and so on… secondly, I hammered all the nails what is necessary. The shelves all trim and so on. Developed a flurry of activity.
Then, still I was kicked out into the basement, where my Studio is. And I of your did the audio Studio video Studio! Bought additional lighting PR��hog, sound and so on. And my first was my live just on the phone. But now at me there is a server I have there is very cool all. So I charge once or twice a week I go out live. And sing different songs, contact – feedback with my viewers. They say that these songs I haven’t sang, I remember, and sing some songs. In General, I have a lot of activity takes place.
And third, the happiest home, I guess, my dog is a German shepherd Zor. Because he does not understand what happened. He didn’t see me for weeks, and here I am with him every day go out for a walk. So he is happy to madness! (Laughs).
So, the form you supported, because the audience will want to see your brand flips, somersaults, or at least energetic dancing on stage. Few artists, after all, can boast that he is a master of sports in gymnastics, how are you?!
Oleg Gazmanov: will Simplify the question. That’s two questions. First, Yes, viewers want all the time, so I tumbled. But still, for me, as a poet and composer is more important than how well they take of the song!
there was an episode in Arab Emirates was my big concert. And before that I was playing tennis and tore a ligament yourself in the foot. But the concert we didn’t cancel, and I flew over there with the crutches. (Laughs). Came out on crutches and said about this text, although there were mainly foreigners, but we also were.
I our said, “Now, my friends, you see, I’m on crutches, so you will not have the opportunity to admire my acrobatics on stage, but you will have a great opportunity to finally listen to the lyrics that I write for their songs. (Laughs). Here.
And how the audience is perceived?
Oleg Gazmanov: Perfectly interpreted! I was on crutches the whole concert was! Not what took place… I, of course, it was hard – I used to actively move on stage quite cheerfully behave. But the concert was a great success! Maybe due to the fact that everything was sympathetic. (Laughs). As for the shape, sports shape. I live almost on the waterfront. And since I love to ride zapbarge walking on cabbage, or rather, I almost every day in any weather out. Usually people ask me: “Where are you so tanned? The Maldives flying?” No no. “Rested?” No, it is on zapbarge I tanned, and over the summer, I just become black. This is the first.
the Second point I usually make some physical exercises. But when I got on the road, it is not zealous. Now I told myself that I would not do one approach a day, and two or three. In this regard, I really lost somewhere in the 4.5 kilograms. Somewhere I have a small belly appeared once, but now it does not. (Laughs). And somehow I feel good now. Physically I became stronger than beforeE. So I think that I usefully spent the time of self-isolation.
