Comment from Per Gessle

Thank you dear Stavern-people! We had a blast, you were singing so loud Pelle’s earplugs fell out!!! Great show, Marie in top shape and no rust whatsoever on this band after 9 days off the road. Clarence and myself have a slight cold of some sorts but we loved it anyway. Hope to come back to this beautiful place! Sleep now. Cheers, P.

8,000 in the audience. Helena spoke Polish few times during the concert as her mother-in-law comes from Poland. Per did his Polish “thanks” (dzieki) with a good effect. Marie Fredriksson hold Polish flag for a moment during the first encore. Magnus mentioned the Polish brand Tyskie as the best beer in the country.
