I don’t know if it was pure honey or mead (this drink has become pretty popular in our country), but Sandra said that it was Portuguese. But she said that, on tour, it wasn’t always a good idea to drink alcohol and nothing like honey to sooth the vocal chords. The singer had in her hand a cup with something golden, that from a distance could look like beer. Sandra returned to the stage afterwards, for “Staring At The Sun”. Rümenapp then introduced “the last song”, “This Time”, thanking for the nth time all the support we’ve always given them through all those years.Ī few minutes in the dark, with the audience screaming “GUANO! GUANO!” and stomping their feet hard on the floor, and the encore began with the instrumental “Plastic Mouth”. “Tonight I’m going to be a fangirl for you”. More ahead, Sandra asked if we were or had “a fanman” with us. But in one of those times they’d managed “something like this”, starting to play “Tiger”. He told us how sometimes, while writing, they exchanged instruments and felt like they had just created the best riff in the world… only to realise on the following day that “it was totally crap”. But with or without the album, almost the whole venue shouted the chorus in “Fire In Your Eyes”.īy the end of “Pretty In Scarlet” it was Rümenapp who spoke again, after trading the guitar for the bass and Stefan Ude trading the bass for the guitar.

Although Coliseu was full (not bursting at the seams, but nicely packed) there weren’t many who answered, with Sandra remarking so. Sandra asked the crowd who had the new album. And that the way they were welcomed made them feel that playing together again had been the right decision. That playing their first concert in our country (in Braga) after the reunion in 2009 had been an intentional thing.
In fact, when after “Sunday Lover” it was guitarist Henning Rümenapp‘s turn to speak, we learnt that Portugal was like GUANO APES‘ second home. And pointing her finger in a certain direction, she added with a smile: “and you were there last night in Lissabon”. And while the title of the opening theme was exactly the opposite of what happened that night – “Quietly” – the following track described it literally: “Oh What A Night”.Īfter saying “you know what? You can’t stop me” and “I’ve always liked to open my eyes” and perform the matching songs, Sandra Násic addressed to the audience, declaring how great it was to be back in Porto. » The concert was scheduled for 22:00 and that’s when it promptly started.
