On the 28th of June, about 40,000 fans came to the '20 Years Together' show that the band performed in the 'Chornomorets stadium'. One would think that to play another concert a few weeks later would be a complete nonsense... but at least two things may explain that many fans came yesterday to this new show:

- This concert took place near the beach, in the 'Ibiza' nightclub... a rather unusual place for an Okean Elzy show!
- A few days ago, Svyatoslav Vakarchuk said that 2015 would be a year off for the band. Honestly, this new was nothing short of a clap of thunder in a calm sky of the O.E. fans... The question is indeed of when the next concert will take place now. Many fans didn't want to miss the opportunity to enjoy this performance of their favorite band!
Those who were present yesterday said that the show was magic: 2 hours of music, 23 Okean Elzy songs, Slava's warm voice and the beach of the 'Pearl of the Black sea' as decor... everything was perfect!
We are used to say in France that 'things always ends up with a song.' Here are, just for you, few minutes of pure emotion with 'Така як ти - Taka yak ti' - Someone like you:
Magic, they said?... Yes. But the truth is that no words of mine could express how I feel when I'm listening to that song... How sorry I am that I was not able to be there!
