Gessle rests into shape?
Written by tevensso on February 20, 2005 to Per Gessle.
STOCKHOLM (UPDATED) -
Last night Per Gessle and his band Mazarinerna played at fashion house Vero Moda’s secret company gig in Nacka Strand, Stockholm. The band consisted of MP Persson, Anders Herrlin, Clarence Öfwerman, Christoffer Lundqvist, Helena Josefsson and Jens Jansson according to TDR’s sources. The setlist was “Mazarin” and Gyllene Tider material mixed.
About 1,200 people attended the “swell gig.” The band’s sound was super, according to Per. “Fun to play, my throat is hoarse today!” Per tells TDR.
Also performing at this gig was Swedish group The Ark.
The set list:
En sten vid en sjö i en skog
Juni, juli, augusti
Gungar
Det hjärta som brinner
(Hon vill ha) Puls
Här kommer alla känslorna
Kung av sand
Födelsedag
Ljudet av ett annat hjärta
Gå & fiska!
Extras:
Tycker om när du tar på mej
Det är över nu
Sommartider
The photo was taken at Per Gessle’s “World Tour” concert in Helsinki September 2003.

I would love to hear “En sten vid en sjö i en skog” performed with Helena on backing vocals!!!!!!! ))

Uh...Good for him! And the lucky spectators! :)
Anyway, I really hope he’s working either on an English solo album or Roxette material...
Since the last Roxette collections we’ve had his solo album, solo tour, solo DVD and a new GT collection, a new GT album, GT tour and many GT DVD’s...
I am not complaining, but I would really like something ELSE!!
Per go English or hook up with Marie again! :)
Mari said on February 20, 2005 20:16:
miulatz, exactly :) But maybe better time for new Roxette album is winter 2006.

great for the staff - if they knew how to appreciate Gessle and co :) That makes me crave for some fresh Swedish material too :)
Staffany said on February 21, 2005 03:14:
No, please!!! No more Gessle albums (Swedish nor English!)...

Nice piece of news!. Every show he does is good. Nice setlist, too.

Why do people complain all the time?!?! Maybe it’s Marie who doesn’t want to rush into a new Roxette album. I’m not saying anything, but maybe they want to wait until next year, giving Marie another year off, so that they might possibly do a European Tour? After Marie’s excellent album last year, which I’ve read comments on that she found it very difficult to complete towards the end, maybe she doesn’t feel up to another year in the recording studio, followed by the usual promotional activities. Not saying anything at all bad about Marie, I love her music etc, just need to give her time. In the mean time, as fans, we should enjoy what either of them decide to release, be it Swedish or English. If Per decides to do another solo album, all I can say is, let it be as good as Mazarin, and I can’t even speak much Swedish!! To all the “fans” who generally like to pick faults here’s a little hint: buy something else!!! To the real fans out there: ROX/GESSLE/FREDRIKSSON ON!!!!!

How come someone NOT want a new ROXETTE album? Are you crazy?

Robbie Williams gets U$S 1 million for attending a private party like this one, Ricky Martin U$S 0.7 million, and Eminem U$S 0.4 million. How much do you think that Gessle has earned doing this show?
