Dutch, English and German fans worked together to make it to the front row and everyone is happy. Have never seen that before. Great! +++ WICF was perfect!! And I think MF enjoyed that we shouted for her. +++ Fucking fantastic. Best performance I’ve seen so far. +++ This show was just WOW! Pelle and Chris agreed about this one being the best so far. MF was GREAT. And this time I could even tell her!! +++ Finally had the chance to meet her and say some nice things and take a photo. The trip was worth everything already. Can’t get any better!

Back in Ahoy/Rotterdam. It’s been a while. Haven’t played here since 94… Great crowd last nite (as always). 6 more Ahoys to go.

Andy McCluskey of OMD:

It’s great to see Roxette playing live again with Marie and incredible that she can still sing after what she has been through! The songs were never my kind of music 20 years ago but they are unbelievably catchy.. I have been singing It Must have been Love in my head for 3 weeks now! All good guys in the band and we have enjoyed hanging out with them.

Party crasher: review on AllMusic.com & Canadian release

We were informed that AllMusic.com published quite favourable review of Gessle “Party crasher”. Suprisingly, the album seems to be released in Canada on Sony BMG Music lable. We do not know if it is the same version as it was published in United Kingdom or is it something different.

Thanks to roxtexanet at TDR for information.

NOTP tour: Live album in production

Night of the Proms 2009.As tour producer Jan Vereecke writes on his blog, they have been busy with mixing of the tracks for the German NOTP CD in the last days. The master is now on it’s way into production. They want the CD to be on sale at the German shows themselves, that means from November 27 – the first show in Hamburg. On Monday they had the approval of almost all the included artists: Roxette’s mix was ready, Heaven 17 and Christina Stürmer (recorded at their rehearsals in Antwerp) had been done earlier, John Miles still wanted a few minor changes and Alan Parsons mixed his recordings from Benidorm (Spain) of last year.

The tracklist is still unknown at this point. You can buy the CD at the concerts or order at amazon.de.

Fans stories:

From cvanbroekhoven:

I was at the Gelredome saturday the 14th!! It was f*cking great!!! I loved it very much. Marie looked great but also still very fragile. For me that made her the star of the NOTP!! Fragile and strong at the same time!! Per was awesome as always!!! He’s the man!!! He is such a great performer and musician. Looking forward to the new album!!!

ps. didn’t make any photo’s or videos…i didn’t want to miss a thing!!!! ROXETTE 4-ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From Skyrider:

I was there on saturday. The first time I’ve seen Roxette live.
Roxette’s performance was a big joyride and with no doubt the best show I’ve ever seen. Marie sang so unbelievable good and what a stage presence – wow!
Per came along at the catwalk, at the end almost the whole audience sang along.
Everyone in the Roxette Band was in top shape and seemed to enjoy it very much, Christopher kicked-ass at the end of LTYH.
The concert was filmed, it would be interessting to know if it was for TV, a DVD or something else

Arnhem! Yes! Great show tonight in this huge indoor stadium. Vids available tomorrow, dear you.

Fans stories:

From Kiwein:

Great show with a sometimes lazy audience. Roxette rocked da house. The Look was great because Marie sang the Na na na nas at the end of the song to the melody of the na na na nas in Hey Jude. I loved that! The venue didn’t convince me at all.. don’t know why it was just ugly.

Marie seemed to be nervous again on WICF and lost the subways again but rocked the 2nd part of the show away. I truly believe that her voice was never better than now. I love Listen to your heart and if it was for me I could listen to this song five times in a row.

I was lucky since I had a seat right next to the stage entrance for the artists. When Marie had left the stage after the flower ceremony I shouted: “MARIE” and she looked up. Before a steward pushed me away I could shout “YOU WERE GREAT” and she smiled and replied: “THANK YOU”. That made worth the trip! And the splendid hilarious meeting with Clarence, Christoffer, Pelle and Per, presents, hugs and kisses afterwards, haha.
