Remembering the last failure to get on Vacuum in Golden Palas, one week prior to action I have called in casino SOL and have reserved a little table for two - more close to a stage and have asked, whether it is possible to bring with myself flowers and the camera. In day of a concert, we with the wife have bought flowers - dozen roses of citric color which to us have put in beautiful packing. I have taken with myself all CDs booklets from my collection of Vacuum, in hope, that to me Mattias will carry also all them will sign, and the digital camera.
At an input in a casino, in foyer of us very lovely girls of modelling appearance have met (as against a casino of the Blizzard where when that acted V// there were bald security guards) whether and having taken an interest the table is ordered in us carried out in restaurant. Our little table appeared the nearest directly on against a stage.
In some minutes prior to the beginning of a concert, on a stage have born(taken out) two keyboard installations, have placed racks with microphones, near to everyone on a floor have put leaflets - page with names of songs which should sound in the program, and the waiter has brought a bottle of mineral water for Mattias which too have put on a floor.
Approximately at 00:10 in a microphone have solemnly declared:
"Ladies and gentelmen, casino ÑÎË with pride represents an exclusive concert in Moscow
Legendary group Vacuum".
On a stage two musicians and Mattias have appeared. The first song which it(he) is ripe was new " Your whole life ". Then it(he) has asked a hall, " you know song Icaros? " I to it have shouted Yea, he has laughed and having lowered a voice has told Yea!? And having looked at me, has glanced over all hall which consist basically of a female audience (a pier, only one guy has answered, and how girls?), also has told, what if who that will want to dance let does not hesitate, and it is ripe "Icaros" .After her is ripe a new song " In the dirt ", then was " Culture of night ", (someone from girls shouts and where Marina where you have put her? - he has told, that anywhere he did not put her it, she in Stockholm.) In general Mattias joked much: what the girl has offered him that to have a bite that behind her little table so it(he) has taken, and teeth has torn off a slice of a white fabric with a sleeves and as it seemed to me has swallowed, and having washed down with water has told something like " me here again not badly feed!"
Further were:
5. Fools like me
6. Power
7. Let the mountain come to me
8. Mind Your Mind
9. Starting - executing this song, he has quited the stage and has walked on a hall between little tables.
And last 10 executed song was I Breathe.
All old songs were executed not in acoustic variant.
 After a concert, we with the wife came to a stage to present Mattias flowers. In general it was very strange, that nobody gave flowers: only one girl who has come on a concert with the young man - one red rose in a transparent wrapper, and we with the wife. He was very much admired with our bouquet from yellow roses and has told: " WAU, What and beautiful flowers!". Here at me any excitement was gone, and having got on a stage, I have got a single "Starting." and have told it him, that: "I very old admirer of your creativity, two years back in the centre of Stockholm in a trading complex "NK" I have bought this single, sign it please for me" - he has asked as my name is - "My name is STAS", and has signed him "Take STAZ, Mattias" (Why he has written STAZ-only it is necessary to guess). And has then told, that he has too for me gift: "something special for you", only has asked: "to not distribute IT publicly up to the end of this month". I have answered: "Certainly". We have made some pictures with Mattias, others approached also fans. Then he has left with several fans in a room.
Having drunk dry martini and intrigued with a gift, I not for long wait it(he) have approached to our little table and have stretched to me - the NEW SINGLE "THEY DO IT" which has on the spot signed, and also have signed ALL booklets of CD V// which I have brought and when he has seen single Alcazar "Love life", at him eyes have begun to shine, he has told, that it is his very good friends he produced and mixed this single and as has signed him behind on against the name!
Then approximately at 01:40 I have met Mattias when it he through a front entrance left a casino with colors in hands - a number(line) was not already anybody, we say goodbye I has wished him successful performance in Saratov.
Was already 02:15, and we pleased, with a gift and a heap of autographes have gone home.
Thank you Mattias, for magnificent performance, and for your attitude(relation) to us devoted fans!
