— How did you like the concert? What surprised you the most?

— I really liked the concert, it was a very beautiful show! The venue itself surprised me the most, because no one before Kolya’s concert seemed to have used all the capabilities of VK Stadim in terms of light and sound. This was the first time I saw that this venue had a rising platform and lights were flying out of it during the performance. I would also like to note that Kolya thanked from the stage not only the listeners, but also the team with which he works. I very rarely see this in other artists. It is clear that someone says thank you to the musicians with whom they perform, but in such a way that the entire staff is brought on stage - this was the first time.

— What feelings did the ceremony evoke, how did the audience react to what was happening?

— I thought it was very sweet that Kolya and his wife Lera held their wedding ceremony right on stage, and Lera even threw a bouquet into the hall! (I hope the guy who caught him finds himself a wife soon!). In general, I really liked the concert, and I really didn’t expect such a scale from a solo album. The organizers and the artist himself did a great job to ensure that all listeners enjoyed it and felt comfortable, which is especially important. Looking at the hall, it seemed to me that everyone was having a lot of fun, the audience was delighted!
