"Invasion 2010": the heat, the music, the high cost

9th 10th and 11 July Tver experienced "invasion". Despite the growing number of similar festivals, this is the open air is the most important and most anticipated musical event for fans of Russian rock. This year, after recovering from the crisis was "invasion" in a position to win the maximum in its history, the number of spectators - 130 000 Festival persistently unlucky with the weather - it's cold, then spontaneously dirty, but this year the audience at the mercy of the scorching sun, are so adamant that nothing burns and sunstroke saved. Verge has because of the heat and drought from one day to two hours of the festival was "scab" in Voronezh reduced, but the organizers of the "invasion" is not afraid of the heat and had a great open-air, which may in some ways , and do not hold up to the level of European, but every year the pleasure surpasses himself. Sunstroke and burns do not interfere with the audience enjoying the concert program, especially since so bright it was not that long ago. The festival officially started on Thursday, although not with live performances and a film screening, and that's the most important musical acts traditionally began on Friday with the opening of the alternative scene. Performances on the main stage as the evening began with a live set of "The King and the Clown", without which no cost, no "invasion". Home, and positive alternative: All in Zavidovo was fitted with three scenes. However, the distribution of the artist was on stage rather arbitrary: for example, a positive step in the resurrection "Folkday" in which the folk group made a very different mood: "Wormwood", Alevtina "Nord-Ost", "Turn of the Century "," Troll GNet El ", etc. Among these groups, there were also" Kalinov Bridge ", which many fans of" Nashe Radio "surprised Dmitry Revyakina expect to see the headliner. It is not so, why Alexander Konviser and "MP-Three" were on the positive stage clear, and the "team contract" - the alternative. By the way, before his split these musicians regular participant in the "invasion" was, and the two previous years were the guests of the main stage. On the positive side of the stage, this year moved favorites of Hope Babkin - group "After 11". However, they are looking a lot more organic than last year. On the back of the "King and the Clown" and "Alice" One of the festival stages invasion pleasing alternative scene known bands, some of which could act with dignity among the headliners and were on the main road, just because they do not have a steady rotation on "Nashe Radio" (which shows the problem with a repertoire that the radio station emerged in recently): "Jane Air", "Stigmata", "slot", "Animal Jazz" Mordor, FPG, "Mavrin", "Master", "epidemic", etc. As a rule, little scenes of the festival this year were largely interesting and varied in style as the main site. This is reflected in the number of viewers: they are this year was near the small scenes in comparison to last year there are many more, and many came to the festival exclusively for alternative or positive phase, because that's where you discover new Bands on a particular genre, not contact with the format and the mainstream media. Surprised main stage in the composition slightly. The "invasion" of "invasion" are the same musicians with virtually the same songs, but there were some surprises. Pleasantly surprised by the group "Dancing minus", the ". Main adventure of the summer" after a long pause, surprised the first time on the "Chart Dozen" in the "Olympic" and now in the headliner of performed Satisfied with the look of a "brick", decided to go beyond the rap game and format of the festival program for the concept. Many of the groups who spoke on the main stage, now have a problem with the attendance of concerts, with difficulty collecting small room, but the "invasion" of them - willingly accepted as guests and the audience was enthusiastic, for example, "Underwood , "" Semantic hallucinations "or" The Adventures of electronics. "There was on the big stage, and without openings. "The artist was" invaded "many times, but his new team for the first time here" - from the leading group presented "Radio Chacha". Chachi project Ivanov - a rare example of a musician known group participation solo career, does not lose the audience (as is unfortunately the case, for example, Alexander Konviserom), and vice versa, with the first concert begins collecting full houses. «Radio Chacha naive" and songs after the retirement of the group wrote in a sabbatical, including the controversial "Love metal worker" as the song was played. "" One day, on Saturday, were "Aria" and "Kipelov." Seeing this groups in the program side by side, many fans have hoped that at least a couple of songs they sing together words, but the miracle did not happen, "Aria" played songs mainly from their old doraskolnogo repertoire. "shock the world", "speck out ice "," Careless Angel "," Rose Street. "" Kipelov "also played and wrote songs for the separation, and the immortal hits of the" Aria ", such as" Will and Mind "and" Get up get over the fear " , and the lyrical ballad "All this was" Valery Kipelov devoted to the fifth anniversary of its new group. After his concert set Kipelov again back on stage and sang the song "Enjoy, enjoy brothers," along with a group of "Picnic "." pilot "traditional" Invasion "is a new song Kept a premiere, this time around. the audience was offered a touching song" 152nd "This song is very similar to the early work of" pilot transmit "and received. Your mood and tells the story of a real bus that goes in the "Kolomna". At the press conference said Ilya devil shamanic and esoteric subjects, until done, and the "pilot" back to a simple song about a simple guy. - That the songs and waiting for festivals "Lace", "Rock," "Animals," "No News from Heaven", "Mother": The setlist was not surprised by the group. But the surprise performance of the song "Siberia", in which the choir appeared on stage the fans from different cities. Ilya Damn long wanted to sing this song with a chorus of fans, and that is his dream come true. Also pleasantly surprised by the presence in the tracklist of the song "When you come back," and surprised the keyboard version. Ilya devil said shamanic and esoteric subjects to finished and "pilot" goes back to a simple song about a simple guy the third day of the festival for "mill" opened. Helavisa in a dress shirt, which is modeled and designed for permanently sewn "invasion", and in his speech scene with pouring water from a bottle. At the press conference, she admitted that they walk barefoot in the form of modern rock nymphs wanted, but the temperature on stage was so high that they constantly cool scene with water, did not have to burn your feet. Sergei Mihalok ("Liapis Trubetskoy" appeared on the "invasion" in the resurrection), normally read poems and even called himself God ", took my picture - He turned to the audience -. Now that you hold dear old Icons. Do not you see the yellow round ball over the head? And the wings? Tremble! "At the festival were legends such as" Alice "," Yu-Piter "," DDT "," The Time Machine ", but, in spite of so many Russian rock stars, the brightest and most emotionally intense performance is more than two-hour concert" Agatha Christie " . closing the second day of the "invasion", the group was the highlight of a three-day celebration of rock music. in Zavidovo Samoilovs brought his "Epilogue" for the particular additional light (eg laser) has been set, selected graphics, and even built a second stage the stage for a drummer and keyboard player and sound - the eternal problem of the Russian Open Air -. that it was up to par, but if in the "Olympic" to "Agatha Christie" awarded a little more than 20,000 people here and warm at night among the stars, they give ear hundred thousand listeners. Samoilov failed hit after another, with their indifferent attitude thanked the audience for their love and offered to mark the end of a fun group. This concert was a gift for those who could not get into the "Olympic", and for those who were there and can not hope to ever hear live again "Agatha Christie". not dispel After the last chord audience, in the hope that give the band the addition But it did not happen: the last point of the brothers put Samoilovs abruptly and without much inspirational words. In general, was the second day of the festival is the brightest, and this applies not only to the presentations and the atmosphere - highlight was the Saturday airshow. Arrange demonstration aircraft is always very difficult and financially and technically, but the organizers of the "invasion" was able to do it a second time in a row. And it was not just a flight operations and a full performance as a solo individual pilots and pilots of a demonstration of aerobatics, "bell", "ear", "looping" wings fly on wings and other aerobatic teams "Swifts" and "Russian Knights" has a wave of patriotism in the Russian rock fans, who chanted in tears "Russia concedes! Russia», observed Jagdgeschwader ripped almost cloudless sky. Besides music was the "invasion" of a host of other attractions, from board games and ends with a helicopter flight . nutshell. every whim for your money of great interest, the exhibition is "skirt in the colors", which presents a picture of our rock musician Many people know that Ilya Damn interest in drawing and dreamed of becoming an artist, Alexander Vassiliev. a personal issue and has been able with their creativity meet at the festival also presented their work Edmund Shkliarsky viewers His pictures are very similar to his song:.. mysticism, spirit shaman and pharaohs, mixed forms, with only distantly related to humans. Very talented and realistic paintings presents Yuri Shevchuk. He sings about the people and attracts people, and bright smiles, then merging with the crowd. Made in the role of the artist and of poor Diana Grigoryan and Arbenina. The organizers of the "invasion" of this time succeeded, with many problems that are often tracked the festival, such as the lack of coordination between the employees, to the issue of wrist bands to bring a ban on drugs, lack of water, both drinking water and deal for private use. True, it still was not all smooth stained with the toilets, which were then broken, then to. The point of entering into it, it was impossible, but it's more the fault of the audience, not the organizers However, she could not have been done without any problems, and there were two major drawbacks: high costs and transportation problems. "Invasion" more and more are designed for well-off sections of society. In the 40-degree heat, a half-liter bottle of ordinary drinking water without gas costs $ 100. Students who come from regions to spend on the road had to save on the water - and thus as a result of dehydration and frequent fainting spells. If it were possible to bring food with them, and three days without going to visit the local cafe, carry water with you was banned, and it came out that people who have taken a minimum amount of money to the debt the organizers for their health risk. Ruined heat usually many festival. Firefighters saved his audience, spraying water directly from the tube, but this "soul" was enough. Holders of rights re-entry of the festival ran down to the river, but to get there, without personal transportation was difficult. One person from the alcohol in the heat was found dead in his tent. The second problem was the transport: The "invasion" was very difficult to leave, especially for those who had to work on Monday. Additional trains were started late in the night and arrived in Moscow after closing the subway and bus in Moscow were very expensive and because of the traffic jams were very long. The usual train through the station Konakovsky moss go a few times a day with a very large distances. Bus drove people from the festival to the station, was also rare and does not change even for a train schedule. At the end the audience was seated late to the station for three hours and had water on the platform waiting for the next train. Reshetnikovo to where easy transportation to Moscow was not going, but the bus went to Tver and costs 200 rubles, which many have simply had no money. Rescued by locals and tourists who (sometimes even free), agreed to take the "invasion" to Reshetnikovo and policemen stragglers treated water. But despite all its shortcomings is "invasion" flourishing and every year it gets more interesting and varied, especially the repertoire of small scenes. "Our Radio" is now at the beginning of change, with a new program director, is likely to change the repertoire and the whole repertoire policy channels, and it will not be reflected in the next anniversary of the "invasion". And it waits, it is a place where for three days., Forget about the decency and the blindness and just be yourself This is where social inequality is deleted, and the people are transformed into a crazy rowdy organism called "invasion".
