2005. gada vasaras viens no spilgtākajiem rokkoncertiem, kurš pēc sava spēka un atdeves pierādīja, ka arī amerikāņi spēj būt arī mūziķi, ne tikai ģeogrāfi, kas atbraukuši nopelnīt naudu uz banānu republiku, kā tas pāris nedēļas iepriekš bija vērojams Moby koncertā.

Latvia: Lenny Kravitz performs live in Riga, Latvia
Anete Andermane, Expats Latvia
12.07.2005 09:22 On Sunday, 10th July 2005, the world-famous rock musician Lenny Kravitz gave an astonishing concert at the Skonto Hall in the capital of Latvia- Riga. 8 pm was the official concert start with the appreciated Latvian rock band R.A.P. as an opening but numerous fans were starting to gather already by 6 pm at the entrance of the venue. The regret of standing in a queque and waiting for the beginning of the show was exclusively rewarded by the excellent opportunity to see one of the greatest contemporary rock stars performing live. The aforementioned number of attendants was around 6000. Before the entrance of Lenny Kravitz, R.A.P. performed a number of their songs in Latvian and English that ranged from complete novelties of their next expected album to surpassing hits like “Butterfly Snow Fall” and “Nekas Vairs Nav Tā” receiving a great response from the public. But nothing could overpower the ovations that bursted when a couple of minutes past 9 pm the curtain fell again and the rock star Lenny Kravitz himself appeared on the stage with an acompanying band of 10 musicians and begun the concert with the composition “Minister of Rock N Roll” from his 7th and newest album “Baptism’ released in 2004. The album was not only written but also arranged and produced by Lenny Kravitz himself. Who, besides vocals, performed also the parties for guitar, bass guitar, piano and even drums. The concert of the celebrity in Riga, Latvia was in the framework of his concert tour “Electrical Church”, and in this context it contained a lot of “electric” and ‘spiritual” energy in the air, indeed. The venue of Skonto Hall was literally stuffed with people all excited to hear in live performance such awarded hits like “Dig In’, “American Woman”, ‘Fly Away”, “Again” and “Where Are We Runnin” side by side with exclusively new and promising songs of the latest album “Baptism”. The concert was the hottest event ever lately, indeed, in both- a figurative sense and literally as the temperature at the Skonto Hall definetely passed 30 degrees Celsius, the lack of oxygen was close to vacuum and it is really difficult to decide whether it was a disadvantage of the organizers of the concert- “Premier Show”-, or an advantage to the concert contributing to the overall excitement and uniqueness of the atmosphere where a multitude of sreaming and fainting fans (just like it was once typical for The Beatles) has become a reality in Kravitz’s concert in Latvia too. However, the temperature and the lack of air did not seem to affect the quality of Kravitz’s performance: the sound, the voice, the instrumental solos were truly outstanding, the rock star contributed all his energy, talent and charm in to the performance and even stepped down from the stage and shook hands with the first row of public raising the greatest excitement that could ever be expected. After performing “Fly Away’ Kravitz and his acompanying musicians said goodbye to the Latvian public, and, after a pause and the Skonto Hall echoing with applause and enthusiastic fan squalls, the musician returned to perform two more songs- “Lady” and “Again”. At this point he introduced the public once more with his accompanying musicians, where the musical yield and the energy of Kravitz’s drummer Cindy Blackman was particularly rewarded with breathtaking applause from the public. After that Kravitz expressed a hope to see the Latvian public “real soon again’. The musicians left to return once more and perform the last song “Are You Gonna Go My Way”. Lenny Kravitz concluded the concert with long, sincere and heartfelt bows leaving the Latvian public with the most gratifying memories of the wonderful show that will most likely be indelible for years to come. The whole concert lasted more than two hours until approximately 11:30 pm and it can be stated for sure that, side by side with concerts of Moby, Rammstein, Depeche Mode and The White Stripes recently, the Kravitz’s “Electric Church” tour is one of the greatest foreign music shows that the Latvian stage has ever experienced. Lenny Kravitz released his debut album in 1989, and in his concert in Riga he expressed his emotions regarding this fact with the sentence “After 16 years we finally made it!”. Before the “Baptism” album the praised musician had also recorded a compilation “Greatest Hits” which is a marvellous sum-up of his so forth career as one of the leading and most charismatic icons of contemporary music. Kravitz’s singles and albums have reached gold, platinum as well as multi- platinum status numerous times, he has been the receiver of Grammy Awards MTW Video Music Awards and also American Music Awards. His fifth Grammy nomination was in 2003 for his single “If I Could Fall In Love”. A multitude of his fans worldwide cherish his most prize winning and awarded singles such as “Dig In”, “American Woman” and “Fly Away”. The next concert venue of the tour “Electrical Church” in Europe is Dresden in Germany on 13th July 2005, followed by concerts in Austria, Switzerland, France, and the United Kingdom.

On Sunday,
10th July 2005, the world-famous rock musician Lenny Kravitz
gave an astonishing concert at the Skonto Hall in the capital of
Latvia- Riga. 8 pm was the official concert start with the
appreciated Latvian rock band R.A.P. as an opening but numerous

the venue. The regret of standing in a queque and waiting for

Before the entrance of Lenny Kravitz,
R.A.P. performed a number of their songs in Latvian and English
that ranged from complete novelties of their next expected album
to surpassing hits like “Butterfly Snow Fall” and “Nekas Vairs

But nothing could overpower the
ovations that bursted when a couple of minutes past 9 pm the
curtain fell again and the rock star Lenny Kravitz himself
appeared on the stage with an acompanying band of 10 musicians
and begun the concert with the composition “Minister of Rock N

The album was not only written but also arranged and produced by
Lenny Kravitz himself. Who, besides vocals, performed also the

The concert of the celebrity in Riga,
Latvia was in the framework of his concert tour “Electrical
