Z przyjemnością zapraszam Was do Poznania na koncert, który odbędzie się
27.06.09 w Blue Note o godz. 20.30.
Wiem, że ma wystąpić Supergrupa, która swoimi występami wzbudza skrajne
emocje. Przed dwoma dniami, gdy w Poznaniu zawisły na słupach plakaty z
informacją o koncercie, pewien młody mężczyzna rozebrany do połowy, z
wytatuowanymi na klacie dużymi literami "SB" rzucił się z mostu do
Warty
krzycząc "... wypił ja niemnoga elixiru Boga!". Został wyłowiony,
przebywa w miejskim szpitalu na oddziale psychiatrycznym, gdzie narazie
został poddany detoksykacji. Mam informacje, że czuje się coraz lepiej,
nie nudzi się, w wolnych chwilach czyta "Moskwę Pietuszki".
Tak więc sami widzicie, że sobotniego wieczoru może być emocji co
niemiara ;)
