Impressions of the performers after the premiere of the arena tour:
"Although I knew most of the pieces that were performed on stage very well, I must admit that it was only while preparing for this project that I realized what, for lack of a better word, monsters, are the authors and original performers of these works, – says singer Vidas Bareikis. – What incredible vocalists Bon Jovi, Tina Turner, Freddie Mercury are, it seems their abilities are simply superhuman. We managed to achieve this level all together as a team – sometimes as a duet, other works in three or four, and some more – all seven instead of one original performer. The success of this project is a large and diverse team and we all sound very powerful together.”
Actor and singer Simonas Storpirštis agrees with him, saying that he only appreciated rock music and its power this year, after starting work on the "Age of Rock: Arena Show" project.
"After tonight's premiere, after all those world-famous works that we performed together, I realized that rock does something to a person, it seems like it lifts them up," says Simonas. "It's hard to understand, how"How well those bands created it, how wonderful and powerful this music is, how much meaning the lyrics of these works contain. Rock music is eternal and that's for a reason."
Singer Indrė Launikonytė believes that if she had to describe herself as a musical style, it would definitely be rock music. According to her, this is simply integrated, programmed inside, and plays a very important part in her life.
"Even the first band I had was a rock band, so this project is like a lifelong dream come true for me. Tina Turner has been my love since I was a child, so singing her most famous songs in an arena, in front of so many people, seemed like a cosmic experience. With all the songs we performed on stage tonight, the feeling is similar - my soul was just dancing with joy and refreshment," Indrė does not hide her admiration.
According to her, the most meaningful lyrics are found in rock music – they say more than in any other style of music. Singer Vladas Kovaliovas adds that it is often easier to write and sing about desires or experiences than to talk about them verbally, and rock music lyrics are open, pure, often straightforward and contain the most sincere emotions.
"For me, rock is a constant movement, a living emotion, a seething, simply boiling feeling inside. If that's not there, there's no real rock. My older brothers introduced me to this music as a child, and I grew up with it. It's really a shame that during the golden age of rock, which we're talking about in this project, we were separated from that culture, but today we can make up for it in a big way," says the stage legend.
