David Bowie, 1947 - 2016


"The Outside Tour" at Scandinavium, January 20, 1996

In a few words....Bowie was a genius and his legacy is gigantic. Like the best, he invented and reinvented his music and career over six decades. I'll keep in memory the last time I saw Bowie live in January 1996 at the Scandinavium arena. Pity life does not have rewind buttons. We will miss you, David....

Lisbon was special in terms of commerce during the 1960`s. The city lights from shops, neon and Christmas lights created a magic atmosphere and a heaven of colors.

Mariza at Konserthuset....

Göteborg, October 1

The graceful tiny body with a voice like an eruptive volcano. She is not just a great "Fadista", but a world-class performer. I still wonder how the musicians were able to play at such a level for 2,5 hours ? 

A night to remember Mariza !!

Best in show: "Primavera"
