Erlend Øye
History of the first meeting.
In the summer of 2006 I, being impressed by the music in the cafe, asked what kind of magic plays. The answer was a nice gift to me — a disc of the band "Kings of Convenience". I've been listening to the guys from morning to a night many days on with no getting tired of their sound. And a couple of weeks later I saw a small note in a newspaper: "Kings of Convenience will give an informal concert in one of the clubs on the beach in St. Petersburg." The next day! Well, I jumped on the train without hesitation, as befits an inspired person. By morning I was already in Petersburg. And I got what I wanted — the beach, a live concert, summer. Life is beautiful! It would seem, just go to Moscow being satisfied. But no. I stayed for the night walk. And it brought me a very pleasant meeting — Erlend is in one of the bars. Pass by? No, I couldn't. But I also could not able to connect even two words in English... So what I wanted to tell him? Maybe about all the fullness of my feelings. What a shame! And even more. I allowed myself to pat his belly.🙆🏻 Mother dear, hope I was not scared him much.
