Arbenina: "I am very pleased that Rock'n'Roll is possible in my Homeland"
Even a "blacklisted" band performed at "Rock za Babrou" festival. Please see Euroradio's photo report.
The weather let us down on the second day of the Summer. There were not many people in Baravaya. It was raining for the whole day with some breaks, and sometimes the rain and the wind got really strong. The sun emerged only when it was close to the evening. More people arrived to see the headliners, but the number of the viewers was still incomparable with the previous years. However, those who was not scared off by the cold did not regret it, and it was really very cold - about +10 C!
And now, please see the photos and listen to the "Night Snipers" song "Seaman" - live sound from Euroradio:
It was prohibited to sell alcoholic beverages in the nearest shops and petrol stations.
And this is what they call a tent camp!
As the weather failed, people got warmed with active games.
Belarusian bands "Yellow Brick Road", "Prosspekt", "Тok Rukoo", "Open Space", "Tesaurus", "SUN ROAD-21", "Naka", "Ў", "Lermont" sang at the festival.
The "blacklisted" band "Naka".
Leader of the band - Nasta Shpakouskaya

Some people even failed to come close to the stage. They say that not just one bus was filled with those who used alcohol in improper places.

Diana Arbenina confessed that she sleeps well in Belarus, in a good sense :)
"I am very pleased that Rock'n'Roll is still possible in my Homeland. Trust me, when we told people that we were going to play at a rock festival in Belarus, they told us something like "is it possible there?" — soon at Euroradio: whom Arbenina voted for, whom of the Belarusian musicians she knows, whether she heard about the "black lists" and many other things.
The Sun emerged in the West closer to the evening and the rain stopped.
People started arriving.

Diana complained at once that there was a great distance between the people and the stage. "However, I will cope with this somehow", she said and she did not wait long.
This is the way they warmed the headliners.
