Leps Baskov has 15 minutes of fame

Grigory Leps concert birthday took place in Crocus City Hall on 15 July. It began in an unusual location for this time - 22.00 clock that is easy to explain: the singer with a three-hour concert for his birthday meet somewhere give performances - as the New Year (musician was born on July 16). On the ground familiar budding career prevailed in restaurants Leps atmosphere - a table located behind the musician friends and guests: Nikolai Baskov, Alexander Rozenbaum, many businessmen who supported at the time of Gregory morally and financially. Among the VIP guests were rumors that the table reserved in the front row for Vladimir Putin and Alina Kabaeva. The Prime Minister does not come to the concert, but the likelihood of such a possibility confirmed by the fact that this table remained empty throughout the evening. "Hey, guys, and good evening to all who gathered here at the table" - welcomed the audience and artist friends. He left in a black suit, white shirt, pants, glasses on the stage to get away from the bright lights. Set design was very austere - went on the screen in the form of hearts video shows the song, if there are no suitable clip, Leps showed heart, snow, clouds and other natural phenomena. Leps first audience listened artists, almost frozen, and only when he began singing famous songs, hyped up and people began to sing. The song "So What" at last roused the hall and the musicians began to catch up with a number of women with flowers. Piercing thing "ordinary person" Leps added the prayer "Our Father", abruptly switching to the text of the old Jewish prayer. Better the scene crowd of fans artists, got out of turn, a blonde with a huge bouquet of roses - he was so deeply moved that he began to pick off Bouquet and the hero of the evening showering petals. "Well, you have 15 minutes of fame, the Basque" - appealed to zealous blond Leps. And Nikolay now sold almost - he grabbed a microphone and not always in the scene, was forced to sing at the Hall "Happy Birthday." Hall has not been answered. One minute before midnight on the microphone again got Baskov, who acted not from the VIP boxes, as master of ceremonies. He said to the Grigori some kind words, got the guests on the floor and raised their glasses in honor of the birthday boy. Leps thanked his guests by having them. By name and patronymic, and then got off the stage to shake hands with each person As the concert continued, close to the stage is like a holiday party in Sochi restaurant after sunset. Podtantsovyval anyone tried giving a hug to the singer's legs, difficulties with someone sitting on the stage, lay down on his back to rest. Neither Leps is no protection happens to not be scared and angry. But here is dashing theme has reached the stage. When I got out, Alexander Rosenbaum, Gregory announced he will sing with his friend from St. Petersburg duo. Shout over each other sucking, artist "Gop-Stop". Another duet - "Turn Around" with Valery Meladze - hardly a party at a concert back on track. After completing the program, said farewell to the Leps audience and left the stage. Encore musician was never published, and the crowd stormed the buffets still work. One of them posted, we had only four sandwiches with caviar, cognac waved and blew, "Now I have walked the Leps."
