Pe 2 iulie, Lemmy si Motorhead au adus cu ei "pumnul de fier", cantece ca Overkill si Ace Of Spades, scrise "in the name of tragedy", au "omorat moartea", i-au mitraliat cu chitara pe fani si au "amenintat" ca vor reveni in Bucuresti.

Cap de afis al serii a fost Moby, care a demonstrat ca are calitatile unui artist desavarsit: a cantat cu vocea, la chitara, la clape, la congas, a prezentat piese despre povesti de dragoste si fizica cuantica, dar si o preluare dupa Johnny Cash. De asemenea, ne-a vorbit despre George Bush, "cel mai rau presedinte pe care l-au avut vreodata Statele Unite", si ne-a marturisit ca se simte onorat sa cante pe aceeasi scena cu Motorhead. In aceeasi zi au mai cantat Les Elephants Bizarres, Grimus, Ayo si Polarkreis 18.

"We are Motorhead and we play rock'n'roll". Aceasta este scurta, dar cuprinzatoarea prezentare a unei formatii apreciate chiar de catre cei de la Metallica. De altfel, sunt binecunoscute cele doua preluari facute de James Hetfield si colegii sai dupa Motorhead: Too Late, Too Late si Overkill.

Joi seara, Lemmy si colegii sai au adus la Romexpo piese de pe noul album, Motorizer, dar si cantece mai vechi. Pe rand, Iron Fist, Stay Clean, Be My Baby si Metropolis au asurzit multimea, cu probabil cel mai puternic sunet din cadrul festivalului.

"Every year we try to find the loudest f** crowd of that year", a fost publicul anuntat, pentru ca imediat fanilor sa li se ceara sa tipe. Imediat, Over The Top a innebunit cativa spectatori, care au inteles mesajul piesei si au trecut la crowd surfing.

Un One Night Stand si un solo de chitara au facut trecerea catre Another Perfect Day:"This is from 1983, since before you were born, hahaha!", cum avea sa anunte Lemmy, cu accentul lui britanic, real impediment de comunicare. "Sa mor daca am inteles vreun cuvant din ce a zis pana acum!" mormaia un fan nemultumit.

"This is a song that could only be written by an englishman", a fost descrierea lui In The Name Of Tragedy, pentru ca apoi sa se treaca la o piesa mai "exotica": "This is a rock'n'roll song, do you want a rock'n'roll? Doesn't matter, we're gonna play it anyway" - Going To Brazil.

Dupa Killed By Death a venit "The moment you all been waiting for! I think...!" - Ace Of Spades. Intr-adevar, un moment asteptat inca din toamna anului trecut, cand, la Sala Palatului, Tricky canta aceasta piesa vreme de 20 de minute, iar fanii invadau scena.

"It has been a pleasure to play for you. We come back to do it again, ok? Don't forget us, we are Motorhead and we play rock'n'roll!" ne-a spus Lemmy, dar nu a putut sa nu revina pentru un bis la piesa Overkill, pentru ca la final sa ia chitara si sa ne mitralieze.

Dupa demonstratia de forta a celor de la Motorhead, Moby nu s-a lasat mai prejos si ne-a aratat ca si el stie sa faca muzica. Ba mai mult, a impresionat lumea cand a dovedit ca poate nu numai sa se foloseasca de computer pentru a crea, ci stie sa si cante cu vocea, cu chitara, la clape, ori sa foloseasca instrumentele de percutie.

Cu chitara in mana, invartindu-se pe scena printre colegii sai, Moby a "trudit" pe scena ca toti ceilalti si si-a permis momente de pauza doar pentru a vorbi cu publicul roman. "Thank you for inviting us to Romania. It's a beautiful, beautiful place".

"This next song is the first song that I ever released, it's called Go", a anuntat Moby, pentru ca imediat sa treaca la congas.

"Thank you, thank you, thank tou, thank you! Is everybody having a nive time? Ok! Aaaand it's not raining... although this next song is called Raining Again", a spus Moby si si-a reluat pendularea intre chitara si instrumentele de percutie.

"And now, in honour of the fact that we got to play on the same stage as Motorhead, I'm gonna play a guitar solo. Are you motherf***ers ready to rock?" a spus artistul, pentru a introduce publicul in atmosfera piesei Bodyrock.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you", a multumit iarasi, obsesiv, lucru pe care avea sa se mai repete pe parcursul serii.

Cu ocazia piesei Mistake a trecut la voce, demostrand ca este un artist polivalent. "This next song is a slow preety song about romance going on", a prezentat el hit-ul Porcelain, pentru ca Pale Horses sa fie urmata de We Are All Made Of Stars, "a song about quantum physics".

"Did I mention how nice it is to be in Romania? See, I'm from New York City and the official music of New York is disco. This next song is an over the top disco song. Thank you very much!" - Disco Lies.

Scurta incursiune in muzica disco cerea putin repaus. "Joy and I are gonna sing an old song", a spus Moby si si-a rugat colega sa se aseze pentru a canta Walk With Me.

Lift Me Up a fost oferit intr-un "context politic". "So, some of you might know in the United States we have a new president: Barrack Obama. And finally, after eight fucking years, George Bush is finally gone. Because George Bush was the worst, worst of all presidents the United States has ever had. This next song is just written about how dangerous the United States can be".

Si pentru ca seara nu putea sa se termine cu supararea oferita de amintirea numelui George Bush, Moby a revenit pe scena cu o preluare dupa Johnny Cash. "Do you know one of my favourite things to do? When I was very young, my mother and her friends and I we'd have a singalong."

"This last song is a rave song from 1995. And I would like to dedicate it to anybody here who'd ever been standing in the field, 6 o'clock in the morning, with the sun coming up", au fost vorbele de final ale artistului, care ne-a oferit Feeling So Real. "Moby rocks and raves!", avea sa concluzioneze un fan extaziat.
