Group "Chaif" anniversary tour celebrating "25 years older." During this quarter century, the team has remained a haven of reason and warmth in the stormy sea of the Russian rock. Group leader Vladimir Shahrin spoke about creative longevity, freedom of speech in Russia, and local character of our society. - I will begin with a traditional question: How was the exposure to 25 years? - Now you can think of many reasons - says: "Novye Izvestia" musician. - I think there are two important call. First, all of us are really like in the group, what we do, what we're playing. And secondly we have, in addition to the professional relationship, there are friendly. This is not a symphony orchestra, where people meet only at concerts and rehearsals like. We, especially male society, and then musicians. - Not forced to change to have ... - Yes, they were very little. Early from Oleg Reshetnikov. When it became clear that the main occupation of the music, not a show in six months, still is, he decided did not want to become a musician. We have maintained good relations. The drummer was a very popular group "Nautilus Pompilius" to think that his career is good. Also we stayed friends. Founded Anton Nifantiev solo project to play the music, do not fit a "Chaif." No offense was not that we communicate now. - But even among friends is not without controversy, conflict, critical moments. Was it? - Of course. And in the family, and my friends are all conflicts. There were a whole lot, but we were smart enough not to tell each other that can not be forgiven. "Chaif" - Does your musical career, who knew you when older people who had to work in other areas, was to get some experience? - And this is the third, unnamed reason for our longevity. If a group in 1991-1992 was not really popular in the tight skirt klubovskih circles and across the country, we were older guys, for 33-34 years. We have already had children. Skullcap has been glued to the head, so that the wind is not degraded. - The more mature group of inspired writing new songs? Because so much has already been written, it is difficult to surpass earlier gains ... - I looked up from what happened with colleagues both in our country and abroad. Usually need to be treated to ensure that there are some peak point. Paul McCartney hardly write pop songs yesterday Rolling Stones - Satisfaction. But that does not diminish it as a musician. Peak times depend not only on the music and lyrics, but also when it seemed to coincide with the passage of time. After all, these songs are not only milestones in the life of the Beatles, but in the history of planet Earth. And you as an author, there is little independent. I think the writing on the shores of Lake Baikal chorus "Oh, yo," a simple song, that brings any other child has to learn to play guitar? - Russian President younger than you, he is a fan of Deep Purple. This is good for the country? Do you feel that Medvedev speaks the same language? - I think this is a much better generation of politicians, than what was in my life before. When the people shouted, "Down" and start complaining that we do not give this power, I have enough common sense rewind the tape was returned. Someone was better? No. All were personally I have serious doubts. I see the progress that the president things that need doing to cope: in particular, the legal basis of our state government. This is one of the main reasons, I think problems. Medvedev seems defined a sphere of influence in the economy have not climb, and engage in lawful. And, as a hired manager, he usually does the job. Those who shout! "Down," I, looking around, I will answer: wealthy. And who instead? Boriska in the kingdom? Boriska show that over the empire. What is scream? The authorities must provide claim to go rallies, write letters and speak in person, but some very specific questions, ask the very obvious solution. Otherwise, it's just not helpful shaking air. - With some of the politicians are friends? - I almost everyone of them do not know, just nod at the level of "good morning -. Good day" Even with our municipal and provincial politicians to make friends with anyone. When Dollar 50, new friends bring difficult. - From the rock musician of the habit of waiting for some protest. Although probably say it stupid of the mature, experienced people? - You are right. If there is a protest, no matter who you are - a rocker, a taxi driver or a steel worker. Among the rockers, as well as among the miners, there are different people. You go to work, and this is satisfied, and the other - an active trade unionist, goes to rallies and knocking his helmet. But neither in this country nor in the world demonstrators were never in the majority. Glemovy by T.Rex Marc Bolan, Elvis Presley, Slade with his heels - where there is a protest We had a sharp social "TV" and "DDT" (and still is), and Mike Naumenko, "Picnic", "Kalinov Bridge" and the implementation, relatively speaking, the songs of the common people group "Chaif." All involved in the industry. You want to protest? "TV" and "DDT". Would Orthodox pathetic? "Alice"! Want ethnic roots? "Kalinov Bridge" Inna want. Want vanguard? "AuktYon." For all tastes. I'm not offended when people say that the group "Chaif" familiar, like a sausage. Good, because the sausage. I sometimes like sausages frying in a pan. - They lack the degree of freedom as a citizen who is allowed into the country? Continuous propaganda on TV, but since you can read the internet ... - Yes, sometimes as political sites will read that the hair stand on end. Write this shit! We have in the repertoire of socially charged songs and when we asked unconsciously change and freedom, I honestly never dreamed there would be so much. We live in a fairly free country. Many people have the illusion that the Western world megasvoboden. Nothing of the kind: and total surveillance and a certain pressure on the media and individuals are also in France and in America. I'm not really talking about countries like India, Pakistan and Iran. Yes, we are not in the open field in the world, but it is already far behind. - Ekaterinburg protested against the demolition of a historic building. - For me it is very impulsive. If I realize that what I was tired and my voice, this problem is really mean something to me, that we can expect decisive action. In the image of the city where I was born and raised, I understand something and have the right to judge. I understand that the city is changing, to communicate, to be built. But in this case, the people revolted, as they demolished a rough building. During the night, the house was gone, and no one has told you who did it. Neither the prosecutor nor the city administration, neither yet the Ministry of Culture and the developers confessed: a Batman fly broke with an excavator, a building in the city center, deposits away and disappeared. Me mum and dad as a child say naughty - Have the courage to admit. Say fellow citizens, even the devil has cheated, well, sorry, we instead put the crystal. But no regrets. Not even admit that made the decision. - You are a known and respected man in the city. The proposal would make it a state - MP, for example? - Everyone knows that I will not have anything to do with it. Receive monthly deals, to connect a board, standing under the banner of several to come to some kind of party chat. I know roughly what they want to talk, and do not go at these meetings. If a particular social or political organization of a proper case in which I need help thinking, I will gladly go to them. But I'm still drawn to the banner at the demonstration school, enough already. - How has your audience in 25 years? - It has a lot of mixed age. At first it was mainly our colleague, now a lot of people in the hall below $ 50, but at least teenagers. Rock and roll began in Russian hear 13 years boys and girls. The public has become more relaxed and prepared 20 years ago, we come to a new city, playing songs with strangers, now they know the whole repertoire of "Chaif." - Is today's young people have the desire to grumble? - No Although they are different, they are not worse than us. If on a tight circle of friends of my youth over, we can complain, we were much more interesting. But most of the seeds gnawed at the door - do not read the books, the films were not executed. Perhaps this generation is more individualistic. You have to do something in his cave. We were more sociable, we pulled into the yard, to a certain kind of group creativity. Now people and socialize in the comfort of their room. Worse than that, or better - time will tell. Compared to our generation are much better informed, free, free. I think they are better than us.
