A man in a white vest waits backstage at Spirit of Burgas’ JD Rock Arena.
He has a cigar in one hand, a bottle of JD in the other. A short exchange of pelasantries with a friend later and he hits the stage. It’s Svetlyo and he’s here with his band of Legends. The’re wrapping up the second night of madness at the JD Rock Arena.
The band’s intro is the ‘Godfather’ theme, played by the accordionist. There are a few changes in the band’s line-up, but the frontman and his sidekick Mitsov are still there, providing humour, sarcasm and jokes in-between songs. They also play a 45-second version of a Vesko Marinov evergreen with the words somewhat altered iin explicit fashion.
The crowd loves it. They also play ‘Ace of Spades’, just like they did last year, only this time we get an accordion solo instead of a sax one. The new song ‘My arse hurts’ is already a big hit. Its official premiere took place at Tangra Mega Rock three weeks ago. Now 2500 people sing along, as the band claim the song’s been downloaded 100,000 times already.
The crowd roars them on. Of course they play ‘Bate Goyko’. A good old knees up this! See you later!В В
