How would you describe the message of this big event – what do you want to convey to the concertgoers?
Pope Who: Before Arstarulsmirus starts talking, I’ll warm him up (laughs). Thinking about this project, I wouldn’t say that it was exactly my idea or anyone else’s special idea to create something new ok. From my point of view, I would say that it is a reaction to the current demand. Also from the musicians themselves. There are obviously some pores that need to be filled with this concert, that’s how I read it.
Arstarulsmirus: What are those pores?
Pope Who: Thanks for the question, I think I can handle it! (Both laugh.) That is, it wasn’t like: “Oh, listen, let’s make something!” In our country, something like that has been demanded, and that’s why it appears, that’s how I would describe it.
