Hi there,
this is the translation by google translator;
Prior to Yusuf / Cat Stevens in Hovet
Yusuf / Cat Stevens has chosen to make its European debut at Hovet in Stockholm and this will be the only concert he gives in Scandinavia during his tour. Concert starts at 19:45, no dressing!
The underground station, the Globe is closed due to renovation of the line 19 between Hagsätra - Gullmarsplan. The stadium is located within approximately 5 minutes walk from Gullmarsplan. Here are tips on alternative means of transport.
If updates of time and the other takes place after this letter sent to those published on the event page on globearenas.se.
CS Event and the Stockholm Globe Arena welcome you!
Yusuf / Cat Stevens
May 7 | Hovet
Concert starts at 19:45, no dressing. Pause at 20:45 to 21:15. The event is expected to continue until 22:15 pm.
Note that the above are approximate - opening night, so the above times may change slightly.
Age limit 13 years.
I hope this helps. Its not the best translator in the world but you get the idea. I know because I have been learning german for over a year now and have to use it sometimes when I take notes in German at the university in Germany (i am an exchange student u c!).
all the best.
Peace.
Catchem

They just posted this in English:
Yusuf/Cat StevensYusuf/Cat Stevens is back on stage again – European opening night at Hovet on May 7! Tickets from February 14 at 09.00!
Hovet, the only Scandinavian stop
Many see Cat Stevens as the best musical poet of his generation. This enigmatic songwriter and superstar is now back after more than thirty years of silence. Yusuf/Cat Stevens has chosen to open his European tour at Hovet in Stockholm and this will be the only concert he gives in Scandinavia during the tour.
Before your visit
The concert starts at 19.30, no support act. A 30 minute intermission after approx. 1 hour and the concert runs up until approx. 22:00. Entrance 16 open from 17.30 for WarmUp at Hovets Hörna, entrances 11 & 13 open from 18.15, when all other bars and kiosks in the arena open as well. For guests with tickets on the floor, a bar stays open in that area.
More about Yusuf/Cat Stevens
Cat Stevens, with roots in Sweden (his mother is from Gävle), began his career by playing in pubs and clubs in England in 1966. Before putting his career on "stand-by”, he enriched us with songs such as " Father and Son ", "Morning Has Broken, "" Wild World, "Moonshadow", "Peace Train" and many more. A collection of hit songs that have become true classics!

Martina, Dan (Trotsnj) I am so jealous of both of you.... no, I'm just kidding. (maybe not  ) I am really thrilled for you both. Have a wonderful time. We expect to hear great reviews from both of you, after all this is the first concert and his maternal home country. There is no hurry, do it when you return to your homes, right now just have a wonderful time at the concert (s). Dan, I am really happy to hear you were able to attend couple of the concerts after all. ;D Martina, enjoy those concerts! ;D |

Hi Christine, so good to see you on the board on the eve of Yusufs opening concert. It is hard not to feel envious for many of us who could not go. I don't think it can be helped, especially for someone so deserving of being there, you Christine, our respected First Lady of this wonderful site, Majicat.  I do hope Yusuf seriously thinks, and takes into account, after his European Tour how many wait for him in the States, and Canada. Well lets look on the bright side, this month, we have alot to get excited about, and look forward to. We can sit back in the comfort of our home, gutsing down chocolates one after the other, while others are running around Europe, exhausted from hotel to hotel, losing sleep, hoping they won't lose their next flight, train, for their next concert, (bite my tougue ;D)..... geeez, who would want to go through such agony, torcher... MEEEEEE CHRISTINE!!!!!, THAT'S WHO!!!!  ;D, and enjoy everyones reports of the concerts as they fire in. ;D Can't wait for the show to begin!!! The reality of the matter is, it looks like I will be losing more sleep than our Majicatters over there,while waiting for the first reports, better stock up on my chocolate bars. ;D Sorry Christine, just trying to make light of our situation. ;D Christine, as you are the best person who could advise us, suggestions as to the best manner how majicatters can post their reports. Do you think it is best to set up a thread for each concert city, that is begining with Stockholm? Anyway, I'm sure however they come in they will be most welcomed. Better get back to my responsibilities, that is if I can pull myself away from this laptop. Sorry, hogging the board today, but it's been such a long time, missed this place terribly.  |

downunder72 asked:
Good suggestion, Vicki. I had been thinking about earlier. But hadn't acted on it yet, as the concerts weren't here yet. But since tomorrow night is the first of the concerts, I will put it together tonight. I'll create separate sub-folders for each of the concerts. As I had for the previous U.K. Tour. This way, as the concerts happen, people can post on each individual concert folder.

Vicki, Marky, Dan and all you other lucky concert goers; I have created a new CATEGORY.... It's called THE CONCERTS = 'MAJICATTERS CONCERT REVIEWS AND MORE'. I am placing sub-folders with each of the concerts there. This will ensure that each concert will have it's own folder, in which you can create your own threads and keep each concert together. I hope this will work for this tour and for future tours as well. majicat.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=concertreviewsChristine |
