10.August.2000 Stockholm Sjöhistoriska museet-Marie Fredriksson: äntligen summer tour concert.
Swedish songs and Marie speak full swedish to people.But she see that the firsts places are very many foreign fans.She knows they are Roxette fans, they know and like her solo project too from Roxette.So she greets them and thanks that they came from so many countries all over world.

12.August 2003.The locale the same Stockholm Sjöhistoriska museet.
-Per Gessle: Mazarin summer tour concert.
In front places again very many foreign Rox fans Bulgarians,Spanish,Italians,we Hungarians.......
Why did Per tell nothing to us in English like Marie???
This was disappointed from Per!!!!!WHY?We drove so many for he!One english thanks was him very difficult?

Because he is a moron?

because it was a coincert for a swedish audience...

It was nice of Marie to say something, but she didn’t have to do it of course.
But why talk about this now. The Mazarin tour is almost a year ago! Now, let’s all prepare for the next tour!!!!
Have fun!!!!

I was there, I am english. I didn’t expect him to say anything in English.
Like if he came here and sung totally in English, I wouldn’t expect him to speak swedish to the audience!
Would have been a nice surprise, but I’m not gunning for him because he didn’t.

@daniel alv!
Yes,I know Marie’s too. Some english words don’t “patriot betrayal”!But few foreign fans should rejoice.....

Because Per and Marie are different?
Because he wanted you all to be integrated and not to make you feel different?
Because he welcomed you all regardless of where you were coming from?
Because he usually doesn’t talk much in the concerts (that I have seen so far), and when he does in English he seems to get quite nervous?
Does anybody really feel extra-happy when they say for example in Barcelona “Bona nit Barcelona!”?

Santi is right in every single way. I fully agree with each point he/she (?) underlined above.

My mother asked me the same thing when she watched the DVD with me a couple of weeks ago.. I was not bothered but I guess she had a point...

kriszta, you are kiddin’ right?

He has no reason to say anything in English. It was a SWEDISH TOUR. He is Swedish. There were a darn sight more Swedes there than the handful of non-swedes.
Yes, it would’ve been nice... but he didn’t have to!
Sheesh.
Betrayal? Pffft.
