Thanks for the info

Sounds logical
Wanna be there, too ... even though I REALLY have NO relationship to Russia ... *likes more the East Asian and Latin laguages ^^*

*sneaks into the baggage of Lu XD*

Yes, but it will be the 28th! ^^


** EDIT **

The date is changed!
Now it's 22th.. at 7.30 pm..


** EDIT **

The concert is deleted because of the recent volcan expolsion in Iceland and his volcanic ash..

Yesterday was the concert in St.Petersburg and it makes me sooo sad to hear (from a girl who was there) that there have been just about 50 fans .......
She said it could be because of the lot cancels and delays of the concerts and cause in Russia many schools have exams now ...

This is so sad for Lu He was sad indeed when he was on stage and at the M&G ........
if you'd know what he did to make it possible to go to Italy/Russia etc. the fans should much more appreciate him being there .............

Only 50?! I thought they would have been much more! O.O

And about this:


Maybe you didn't notice, but.. When he was in Italy, even if we were not so much, we did all we could.
I didn't went to St. Peterburg, so I can't tell anything about that concert. I'm very sad to know Luminor was sad, but.. There are things that don't depend on the fans or on him..
We fans have appreciated a lot what he did in order to come in our Countries, but maybe some of us didn't have the chance to be there.
And.. About Italy.. I have to say the place in which they played /did the M&G are small and hard to reach by public transport.

So, please.. Next time, think twice before say something of this kind.. Because people could take it badly..

About 1500 kms in 2 days, spleeping 4/5 hours per night..
And in order to have the chance to do this, we won't go to the Versailles' concert and The Gods of Metal..
I think we appreciate what he did for coming here..

I've thought they would have been more in Russia, too.. But, as meine sis says, not all depends on fans or on him..

Don't get me wrong!
I did't meant you two and that ITALIAN fans haven't been in Russia and stuff.

I meant it is a pity so less fans came while so many told him on myspace they wanna see him live (yeah, I read most of the comments of his blog/profile) ... he did all he can to make it possible to be on stage and have some solo songs and some songs with DNR.

Of course, it doesn't all depend on the fans but on the shit management ........
But I really thought after all this fuss before the Russian concerts [hey, they even had a seperate M&G before!!] there would be more people ...
If I'd know of Lu's situation and health status and how hard these two things make it for him to travel, I would move the hell to go to a concert to show him my support!!!

Of course not everyone could be there, but I guess there have been much more people who had the CHANCE to go there and simply didnt do it. :/


About the Italian locations: Blame Harris for not being able to organise good stuff -.- he's an idiot.

Well.. I answer to this on behalf of meine sis and me..

First of all, there are also things which don't depend on the management.. If parents say "No.", a fan can't just go..
Please, remember that many fans could be minors.
A friend of ours wanted to go to the Meet & Greet in Rome, too.. She should have come with us, but her parents didn't allow her to come..
And this didn't depend neither on her nor the management.
Moreover..



About this.. In the moment you said:



You automatically inlcude italian dates, then Italian fans, then also us.
So I answer to what you say.
If you tell fans should have appreciated much more what Luminor has done, you say we are ungrateful.
And I think it's not right towards fans. Maybe some of them cried all night for not having had the chance to go to see Luminor. We can't know it.
But I think it's not right. On the contrary..
Yes.. We think some fans didn't go even if they could, but there are fans and fans.. We can't put everyone into the same basket, even because it's not right towards all the fans who went there or wanted to go but can't.



We don't need to know it.
We moved the hell, the heaven, the purgatory, the heaven's angels and the hell's demons, in order to be there only for Luminor.
But this doesn't give us the permit to say that all the fans who couldn't come are ungrateful, because we think of how they could have felt.
In our opinion, these your words hurt all the fans who were there or wanted to be there..
Even because.. You make us think he was disappointed also by italian dates..

When I say I didnt mean it like you got it, I mean what I said.
I just wanted to tell that it was hard for Lu to get the chance to travel to Italy and it was the same hard for him to get the chance to travel to Russia. I just wanted to tell going to Russia was as hard as going to Italy. I never said I include the Italian fans and the Italian dates. I just spoke about the tiny audience of Russia.

Sure I forgot many fans are minors, I admit this. I forgot it cause I don't have this problem anymore. Sorry for this.

Maybe there were fans who cried all night long for not having the chance to go to the show.
But you can't tell me that in a big city like St. Petersburg and the surrounding smaller citites are only 50 people who are adults/minors with permission to go to the concert ... for Russia is usually a country where fans are very enthusiastic!

PS: I never attacked those who were there.
Yes, maybe I'm unjust and behave not right towards the fans ... but I'm angry.
Maybe tonight there are more fans but I think not. This city is kinda butt of the world -___-

Again only one of us answers to this on behalf of both of us.. ^^

Ok.. Then next time, if you aren't going to include Italian fans and Italian dates, don't mention Italy in your speech, please..


No, we can't tell you that.. Even we think 50 people aren't much, but everyone has different priorities.. You've said in Russia there are exams in this period.. So many people could have choosen to stay at home for studing.. I've never taken school seriously (I know it..), so I would have had no problems to go to the concet even in exams period.. But for some fans (and/or for their parents) exams are more important than a concert..
Moreover.. Since there was a fan party, someone could have thought "Well.. I've already seen him!" and having choosen to not go (We would have gone in any case but we are we..) and also they seem to go often to Russia (so.. "If it isn't this time, it will be the next one").. but we're sure that all fans who wrote him "I want to see you in live" were there.

We can understand you can be angry but you can't say this kind of things because people can be hurt by your words.
We think yesterday evening there were more people, even because it was Sunday..

If it can interestes you..

*°*°*°*


Who said that dreams are not reality? The show is going on! (about DNR & Luminor concert in Spb)

They’re charismatic and charming, they’re young and talented, they play the music of their souls and hearts which they share with their fans. Many criticized them and compared with some more popular bands but with time this criticism has become absurd. Despite everything the guys managed to storm into the world of show business and win the hearts of thousands of people all over the world. DNR have spoken many times about their love for Russia and that they wanted to visit this country. Last year Dreams Not Reality made their dream come true and performed a show in Moscow. But one concert was not enough for Russia. The fans wanted DNR to come back.

Their dreams were also meant to come true. Extra concerts in St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg were added to DNR schedule.

Bizarre Music were lucky to attend the concert in St. Petersburg and make sure how grand it is when the musicians rock the audience! The energy of the gig blew off the minds of the fans present breaking the borders of the venue and rushing to the streets of St. Petersburg.

The St. Petersburg metal band Areola opened up the concert warming up the already excited audience before the appearance of the headliners of the night. Though their style didn’t exactly match the Italians’ style, nevertheless Areola managed to cheer up the awaiting of the main heroes.

After a short break DNR appeared on the stage and the fans moved closer greeting their favorites with loud screams.

DNR performed not only the already familiar tracks like "No Romance” and "Friends” but also brand-new songs. In between the tunes the fans started chanting "I love you” and "Great” and sometimes they even had to be stopped because the show had to go on. It was amazing how wonderful DNR stage presence is and the way they communicated with their audience was excellent. The words were not necessary because the energy they gave to the audience, their friendly smiles and handshakes with the fans said much more than thousands of words. Rare bands can boast such friendliness towards their fans.

That night the audience got a wonderful present – the appearance of the German singer Luminor famous for his previous project. When he came onto the stage, the audience roared with a storm of applause drowning Luminor in their excitement. Unfortunately he didn’t perform many songs but anyways managed to surprise the audience with everything – movements, his manner of performing. Everything was done on the highest level.

Among the songs there was also the famous "Get Off” the lyrics of which were familiar to everyone present and it was heard how the fans were singing along every single word! After Luminor’s solo performance he was joined by DNR to perform the wonderful "No Romance”. This song was supposed to end up the concert but the fans didn’t want to let DNR and Luminor go. For encore the musicians performed "Get Off” which sounded totally different and new thanks to Axia’s vocals. During the performance Kira came close to the edge of the stage shaking hands with fans and Axia involved the audience in the gig by stretching out his mic to the people to sing.

After the performance finished the band went to the dressing room only to reappear a moment later to hold Meet and Greet, organized by the band’s management, so that every person could take pictures, get autographs or just thank the band for the great night!

Bizarre Music sincerely thanks Harris Ghouse for organizing the concerts of DNR and Luminor in Russia and for this wonderful show!

I hope they don't exaggerate things as the review about Italian concert has done [in my opinion]. °>>

I just read it on the bizarre music website

I think they made it more positive as it was in reality but I like it. It's cheerful.


Hope they'll finally come to Germany ><

I agree with Saki but I don't like it very much..
