We flew to Krasnaya Polyana for the New Year and planned our post-skating evenings in advance to avoid getting bored. The first thing we did was buy tickets to the grand 1990s and 2000s NEW YEAR DISCOTHEQUE at RED ARENA – a huge entertainment venue next to Sochi Casino.
We couldn’t believe so may stars would be performing on a single stage! The best known performers and groups whose hits accompanied all the parties of our youth: the groups Otpetiye Mochenniki, Virus, Faktor-2, Hi-Fi, KRASKI (Oksana Kovalevskaya), Demo, Russky Razmer and Turbomoda.
How great that one could dance at this concert! After all, how can you keep still when emotions are boiling over? You want to jump about and sing so loudly that your voice breaks. That’s the first sign that the performers had lit up the audience. And again, the next day, our legs still gave way because we had had a ball throughout the evening, just like back then, at our school discos. We even felt younger – that’s the effect of dance music!
It was an entertaining flight, full of pleasant musical nostalgia, to a world of the most popular music of the noughties and a real kaleidoscope of the songs closest to our hearts and known by the whole country.
There were only hits: “Girls can be different”, “Love me, love”, “Beautiful girl”, “What shall I do today”, “Orange sun”, “He knows nothing”, “Seventh petal”, “Sunshine”, "2000 years”, “Let’s sing”, “Ragamuffin”, “But we loved”...
The list goes on and on! And we still can’t believe that all these songs and their performers (which is really great!!!) were on one stage at the Krasnaya Polyana Gaming Zone.
If the same 1990s–2000s New Year concert is held again next year, we will definitely be in the audience once more. It was the most brilliant dance show we have seen in Sochi!
