It costs you nothing, but a good deed is done :-)
Bryan Adams's arrival in Red Deer practically coincided with Nataly's birthday, and so we decided to combine pleasure with pleasure and went to the Peavey Mart Center in Red Deer, Alberta.
As we approached the entrance, a limousine drove by. We don’t know for sure whether it was Brian who was brought, or some important spectator who came to the concert.
In order not to forget in which city the concert took place, I took a photo near the big red letters :-)
After standing in a short line in front of the entrance, we found ourselves in the lobby, where everything was dedicated to the Red Deer hockey team - the Rebels
I was very surprised by the huge number of people who wanted to buy merch with their favorite musician. All this is quite accessible on the Internet and sometimes even cheaper. This is probably because it will be pleasant to remember this visit to the concert later.
While you are looking at the photo of the half-empty hall before the concert, I will give you links to our reports from other concerts. Here we talk about Depeche Mode in Kyiv, and at this link you can read about the concert of my favorite band A-ha in Hannover.
On the stage screen there was a car with the name of the artist’s new album: “So happy it hurts”.
As a musician, I was interested in photographing the concert console of a world rock star.
And then some action began. A car appeared from behind the scenes and flew around the hall with the help of drones.
The hall was already filled with people and everyone was waiting for the show to start.
And these two spectators also prepared to receive musical pleasure.
To our delight, the artist did not delay the start of the performance, as some capricious musicians sometimes do.
Literally a few seconds later the entire stalls of the hall stood up and did not sit down again.
The musician's joyful fans lit the flashlights of their phones and it was beautiful.
And then came the super hit that made Bryan Adams famous almost 40 years ago.
This song is called "Heaven".
Just listen to how we all sang this song together. Bryan didn't even sing the first lines of the composition because the whole audience was singing them. Heartfelt, giving you goosebumps…
Thanks to the live camera on stage, we saw everything that happened there.
Before the next song, Bryan called a videographer and asked him to film the brightest and most active spectators.
You will see what drive Bryan Adams' music brought to the concert's visitors if you watch the next video to the end. It was hot…
An obligatory part of any concert of popular musicians, testing out material from the new album. Adams was no exception to the rule here.
The biggest fans of the artist’s work tried to convey their thoughts and wishes to the musician.
And then there was a song that set a record in the UK for the longest time at number one on the charts. This record still stands today.
The video on stage was very exciting.
The song “Run to You” was remembered for the fact that the video for it was partially filmed on the road near Lake Abraham. It is located near Red Deer and viewers recognized many of the beautiful places from the video.
A flying car appeared in the air again and we began to suspect that something cool was about to happen.
And we were right. When the first chords of the song “Summer of ’69” sounded, the hall seemed to go crazy. This is Bryan Adams' most popular song, surpassing one billion streams on Spotify. It’s interesting that in Europe and Ukraine this is not at all the singer’s most popular work, but here in Canada and America it’s just a super-super hit.
This was the culmination of the concert. Bryan continued to perform his songs while the people in the audience sang and danced.
I took a low-quality selfie, just to remember this pleasant moment.
Then the musicians bowed to the audience and left. However, the audience did not want to leave and demanded more songs.
For an encore, Bryan Adams came out on his own and performed the famous song “All for Love,” which he originally sang with Rod Stewart and Sting
Then the band members came back and played for us some more.
Concluding the concert, Brian and his keyboard player sang a song about Alberta, which caused pleasant surprise and joy among local fans.
I cannot help but note that my favorite song by the musician was never performed. But we know that this is one of the artists’ ways to leave a little understatement and stir up interest in their concerts. This is the song I was waiting for, but didn't hear.
Leaving the concert hall, we took a picture of a squirrel sitting on an expensive video camera and envied it a little. After all, she will probably go further on the artist’s tour and attend more than one Bryan Adams concert.
