Roxette – live in Dubai

May 20,
2011

The unlikely becomes reality. Not many of us believed that it could be a success…but M Premeire did. After 25 years as a world-famous act with 70 million albums sold, one of Sweden’s biggest pop groups steps back into the spotlight and rocks Dubai with a magnificent performance celebrating the release of their new album “The Charm School”.

How do they do it? A decade ago it seemed like Roxette had gone crash, boom, bang — but they listened to their hearts and dressed for success in Dubai on Friday, May 20th at Dubai World Trade Centre. The age-defying, leather pants-wearing Scandinavian pop-duo Per Gessle and Marie Fredriksson put on a phenomenal performance, the 52-year-olds proving that they could still rock it out in the old-school style. The audience was perfectly warmed-up by the Palladium Electric Band who impressed the crowd by the sound of electric violins and stunning appearance of the trio itself. The light, the sound, the atmosphere everything was put together to make it an amazing, professional, and unique show which Dubai has not seen for a long while. To keep the buzz after the actual Roxette performance there was a Dj’s battle of 80’s hits which was a perfect conclusion to the show.

M Premiere would like to express gratitude to all partners / sponsors / companies who contributed their skills and professionalism when involved with the organizers in order to make the show a reality and to deliver only the best to the audience who deserve nothing less…
