M like Music

It seems that the month of May will be full of M-Music: Marillion in Munich, George Michael on Monday, Belen Maya yesterday, Iron Maiden next Monday... coincidence?
Before writing something about Marillion in Munich experience, I'll write about George (not Harrison, unfortunately).
The concert in Sofia, Lokomotiv stadium, on Monday was the sixth of his "25 Live" tour. He celebrates 25 years on stage and said in the beginning: "I'll try hard to thank you for supporting me for 25 years". And he did. It was amazing. I never was a fan, I know some of his hits because they are played on the radio and so on and I went to the concert just of "scientific" interest and as a journalist. But it was stunning. Huge scene with giant screen crossing it horizontally and reaching the front rows, the Circle of Faith (I think no one had such a scene in Bulgaria before), all the lights, videos, colours. It was proof of brilliant professional work, on one hand, and on the other - George's voice was at its best and he sang the songs just like studio record - amazing! I was charmed and thrilled. I didn't stop dancing during the upbeat tracks and just sat down quietly, deeply moved during "Jesus To a Child, Ticking, Praying For Time...
The concert was also supporting our nurses in Lybia and the last song - Freedom, almost made me feel like William Wallace ;) Seeing all those 20 000 people around me shouting "Freedom"!
Yes, absolutely perfect concert of an absolutely perfect artist.
The organization of the event was very good, especially having in mind the heavy rain that fell minutes before the start of the show. The promoter covered the grass on the stadium with some kind of plastic and nobody got wet and muddy. Unfortunately the stadium is in the suburbs, I, of course, live in the opposite suburb, there is no public transport after midnight and around the stadium everything was absolutely disgusting - mud, whole lakes and swamps to cross - a real adventure. And the traffic jam - at midnight in the capital city there is a traffic jam because of a concert... At least it was better than the situation after Depeche Mode's show, attended by 45 000!
I am very worried about Iron Maiden's concert next Monday. Very, very worried...
Here some pieces of the amazing night:
"Father Figure", stunning video on the screen (this is shot in Denmark):

Wonderful song, especially with this vision - "Praying For Time", Denmark again:

The same song in Sofia, different aspect:


The beginning of the concert, in Denmark, here in Sofia it was dark when it started - very beautiful.
And the magnificent Elton John's song "Ticking":

Especially for a very good friend of mine:
