We were at the Roxette concert in Kiel yesterday evening.
Some days previously there had been a newspaper article saying that there were still many tickets unsold but on the night it looked pretty full to me.
Concert was VERY loud & lasted from 8pm until 9:45. We had seats right in the middle - unfortunately as the show started two people stood up several rows in front & blocked part of the view. Anyhow - towards the end of the show just about the whole audience were on their feet. In general the audience were very much more "alive" than I had seen on videos of other recent concerts in Germany.
Somewhere I had seen a comment that if you closed your eyes you could think that Tina Turner was on stage singing the songs of Roxette - maybe not quite but the new singer gave a good performance as did the whole band.
