We did not even get near the Puskás Enviornment, but we knew who they have been who have been making an attempt to get there, the place we have been. In spite of everything, these followers who love not solely Hungária’s music, but in addition the period they evoke, actually gave the outfit their method. Rockabilly women wore tulle skirts or pencil pants with polka dot tops; and the jampies took out their colourful jackets and matching surranos – which, after all, have “rubber soles like butter”. The tails have been additionally shot: for girls, the ponytail was dominant, for the boys, the brilliantine. And no matter gender, a raincoat, as a result of the climate was not a buddy of the occasion.
Go Rockandrollia!
Happily, the live performance began half an hour later than the introduced eight o’clock, so those that foolishly arrived by automotive additionally bought in. We’ll by no means do that once more… We realized that the gang of fifty,000 is on a unique scale than the same old Sports activities Corridor. As a result of the Enviornment was full, virtually fully, you would hardly see an empty seat.

Since there was no backing band, they confirmed the viewers a mini-film earlier than the beginning, during which Miklós Fenyő, Dolly, Robi Szikora and Gábor Novai talked in regards to the preparations, in addition to the giga live performance on the Nationwide Stadium 29 years in the past (there have been 70,000 individuals there) and we additionally noticed numerous archive recordings. Additionally about those that can now not be right here:
Öcsi Flipper, Gyula Fekete and Zoltán Kékes additionally obtained an enormous ovation from the spectators.
This introduction was not a nasty concept, as a result of it reminded all those that have been alive when the Hungária collapsed, of these occasions, and in addition raised our curiosity, questioning what they’re like now, all these years later. What can they put in entrance of us?
We obtained the reply a couple of minutes after 9:30. With the primary observe, they flew us to Rockandrollia, and solely from there Istanbulwe ran over a bit, however we stayed on this continent. The Get up, Rockandrollia by the best way, it was a daring transfer, as a result of this report was not made on the peak, however on the event of the 1995 live performance, however the viewers purchased it instantly. Which remained the identical.
When the broom comes out
We have now to say that though the members of the band did their finest, the present was actually made by the viewers. They sang and danced so enthusiastically that they did not even discover – or quite did it elegantly – if Fenyő forgot the lyrics, or if somebody fell out of rhythm, God forbid, the sound slipped. Sure, it was like that, however the feeling they introduced, and naturally the environment: the musicians, the dancers, the lights, the colours, the considerably kitschy and possibly that is why putting garments (we noticed them in 5 completely different units) a lot they bought alongside, they shaped such a unity with the 4 protagonists that it was merely not possible to not adore them. Or the songs. As a result of let’s face it
what they created within the Nineteen Eighties wasn’t only a large deal then and there.
There isn’t a wedding ceremony or frozen home celebration that can’t be resurrected What a celebrationwith or a With the king of kissesand there all the time comes a second when a brush seems Limbo Hintóhoz.

That is what these songs are. You may say that they discover new and new listeners organically, because the band doesn’t exist, but many generations fall in love with these songs. Perhaps as a result of they’re so nicely thought out. Each of their melody and of their lyrics – of which maybe not all of them are well-known at this time. However how good it’s that again then it was nonetheless free to be unfastened, cheeky and spicy. That makes it beat. You do not have to consider Hungária numbers. You must transfer to them and sing them. Particularly in the event that they ask us to do that, and we’ve got had the chance to follow this a number of occasions, and we will say that we’ve got achieved 5 stars.
The rain was unforgiving
We gave and obtained. Simply what we needed a lot: our favourite music. Subsequent got here the Go Play, a Jungle Rocka Lodge Menthola Child Dolla Csak cha-cha-chathat’s Loopy lovea Intercourse bomba Howdy, Marina, it’s not possible to checklist all of them. There weren’t many connecting lyrics, ups and downs between the person songs, however we did not thoughts that, as a result of if we did get them, they appeared a bit boring. In fact, when Miki Fenyő summoned Gyula Fekete, alias Maxi Szaxi; or Béla Jeszenszky, whom we higher knew as Flipper Öcsi, then it was good to be nostalgic with him. Each of them bought their very own observe from a recording: from Maxi Szaxi a Neon parade we noticed, from Öcsi a Bambina.
We did not even discover when it began to rain, everybody was so carried away by the temper – each the viewers and the musicians. Regardless of the rain, the band members used the lengthy runway in the identical method, they didn’t conceal from a couple of drops of water. They gave us all the things we needed and extra.
If Szikora sang, Fenyő performed the piano, if Fenyő pressed, then Szikora performed the drums.
And Novai pushed via the twists in such a method that “the chewing gum was all the time in his mouth”. It was undeniably spectacular when Fenyő and his piano climbed up on a platform whereas the To attend for you all evening gave an affidavit entitled The identical distinctive place was occupied by Szikora a Multimilliomos jazzdobos throughout which, by the best way, was the final variety of the present – earlier than the applause, after all.

Then got here the golden confetti, so for a couple of moments everybody was a Bought Expertise he felt like a finalist. However the sparkler, phone starlight and smoke impact weren’t disregarded throughout the live performance, and the fortunate ones got balloons formed like attractive purple lips on the Kissing King. Since
the band performed all the things for us, besides one,
it was clear that the Limbo carriage would be the closing quantity, the place we even had fireworks. The lesser recognized appeared a bit of unreasonable after that Bubu’s groats on the very finish, even when they sang: “we’re not going dwelling”. The lights have been simply turned on, and with many, many divine blessings from Fenyő round our necks, we began dwelling nicely after 11 p.m.
Most likely many playlists are rearranged as of late, strongly tuned to “Hungarian”. As a result of those that have been there actually do not wish to let this go. We loved it an excessive amount of. And possibly this live performance was so lovable as a result of all of us needed the identical factor. They’re on stage, we’re within the auditorium: having enjoyable. And either side did this to the utmost. That’s, Hungária–Viewers 1–1.
We’re ready for the rematch!
