Roxette arrived to Kiev, Ukraine yesterday on December 5, 2011. It’s the second time this year where the duo will play a concert in this city. It’s also the final World Tour 2011 gig before next step in New Zealand in February 2012.

Ukraine media reports about “extra-ordinary” requests from Roxette’s side, which turns out as standard and totally unsuprising to those who know what the tour live means. Additionally, journalists inform about group’s will to inspect the audience for video recorders or even cell phones – according to Potok.ua all sort of recording equipment is forbidden. And if people bring significant number of such devices, the concert may be even cancelled – yes, don’t belive in what papers write.

Update: It turned out that Roxette came in the rox jet on the concert day – I told ya, check your sources!

MyTeatr.com reports on the very successful Roxette’s concert in front of 5,000 people that took place in Kiev in March this year. Even if there is no confirmed date, this article clearly states that Roxette will play in Ukraine for the second time this year. It is very likely that St. Petersburg won’t be the last concert this year – making December 6th (as our August rumour stated) one of the final stops of the World Tour 2011.

Update September 23: We have a poster for the concert – so yes, December 6th is a fact now.
