Bryan Adams enthralled music lovers in Kathmandu just nine months ago. Concert goers and music enthusiasts in the country are set to get a taste of more international starts with the much hyped MLTR concert slated to take place on Nov 19. The Danish pop-soft rock band Michael Learns to Rock will be performing live at Tudikhel amid an anticipated audience attendance of 25,000-40,000 fans.
Two days prior to the concert the three band members, Jascha Richter (vocalist and keyboardist), Kare Wanscher (drummer) and Mikkel Lentz( guitarist) stepped onto Nepali soil for the first time as they entered the VIP section of the Tribhuvan International Airport. The Jet Airways flight the band was on board, landed at the TIA runway at exactly 2:45pm. Immediately following their arrival to the capital was a press briefing that lasted around five minutes.
“I love Nepal. We are really excited, and have been waiting for twenty years to perform in Nepal. Now, the dream has come true,” shared band front man Richter with a bright smile upon his face. It was then Lentz who talked to the media and said, “It’s a huge honour to be here. We have heard a lot about Nepal Toursim 2011, but are yet to see it.”
The three band members were welcomed with garlands of marigold and khadas. The organising committee—from ODC Network and Engage Entertainment—very interestingly chose to drive the international stars to Hotel Radisson (official hotel partners), in a Nepal-assembled Mustang vehicle. The jeep that has been cause for much discussion ever since the incumbent Prime Minister of Nepal chose it as his official vehicle drove everybody’s attention towards itself.
