Roxette arrived in Copenhagen, Denmark last night to perform at Royal Arena. We met Christoffer before the show and he said Magnus attended concerts at this venue and said it’s a great one, the sound is always very good. We were eager to find out if that was true.
The band went on stage at 21:00 after a local support act, Halberg & Friends. Already during the opening act’s performance we could see that the crowd was in party mood. People stood up from their seats and danced to the songs and they were singing along loudly.
The sound in the arena was really amazing! Roxette sounded awesome and the crowd’s sing-along was so loud and clear. The audience had a fab time on this Wednesday night in the fully packed arena and already stood up from their seats at Dressed For Success. We usually sat down again during the ballads, but during the encore we stayed standing. Both the gang on stage and the audience off stage was so powerful! So Copenhagen easily has become the best gig so far on the autumn leg!
Per and Lena talked to the audience in English in between the songs, but when Per introduced Lena after Sleeping In My Car, she asked in Swedish if there were some Swedes in the crowd. She got a loud reaction, so there were quite some Swedes. Before It Must Have Been Love, Lena talked a bit in Swedish again and of course, dedicated it to Marie.
Chris played a local hopsa folk song as the intro to Joyride. The crowd was singing along loudly.
No changes in the setlist.
