Max Pezzali conquers San Siro: 30 years to sing out loud

Warning: the risk that could happen after attending a concert at San Siro di Max Pezzali is to wake up voiceless. Because the first date of the historic leader of 883 inside the biggest Milanese stadium did not disappoint the title of the show: San Siro sings Max. And how, if he sings it.

Two years after the scheduled date, due to a pandemic as it is easy to imagine, a 54-year-old Max Pezzali, never seen so happy, took the stage in front of over 60,000 spectators. A sea of ​​people of all ages, who came from everywhere to celebrate the 883s and the nineties. Because if it’s true that you don’t get out of the 80s alive, the 90s aren’t joking either. And Max hasn’t betrayed expectations. On stage he even brought the historic former partner, “the blond” Mauro Repettoarrived directly from Paris (his second life is as a Disneyland manager), and then Paola and Chiara, first of all his historical choristers, and again his friend J-Axwith whom he has shared a couple of songs in recent years.

A winning group that closed the evening, around 11.30 pm, singing at the top of their lungs, together with the rest of the stadium, Years. There were before two and a half hours of great hits, medleys and more intimate songs. From You’re a myth at Rotta X Casa Di Dio, from A Love Song to Come Mathe. It’s still North South West East, keep time, The Friend’s RuleNo Regrets, With A Deca, The Great Nightmare and The Hard Law Of Goal. All in the name of nostalgia and (good) memories of a generation that grew up with the 883s. Even of those who secretly listened to them in their bedroom, pretending to prefer rock to pop. And to all of them Max gave even more: the luminous cobwebs of Spider-Man, the dashboard of the car that takes friends “to God’s house” and, above all, dozens of arbre magique moving on stage. “A moment so tamarro to become poetic,” the singer joked a few hours earlier.

Because the happiest on his first night at the San Siro was obviously him. Max. And nothing can ruin his head, not even the news of a “breakup” from the historic mentor Claudio Cecchetto. «Having arrived after so many years to go up on such a stage is an incredible emotion. It is a dream come true, an emotion that I want to share with the people I love. It’s my best party “, he had told us, at times a little incredulous in front of the full house of the double date at San Siro (the second concert tonight also sold-out): “I continue to amaze me at the enthusiasm that people have for things we have made thirty years ago. Maybe it’s because when you let them settle things a bit, only their essence remains, the idea of ​​joy, of returning to happy days “.

The future? A tour in the sports halls that will start in autumn and continue in spring, while he will speak with his friend Repetto in September. There is the desire to «Put down a couple of ideas together» and why not even «a reunion». And then there is the new series in the works, produced by Sky and Greenland, inspired by the true story of the 883 entitled They killed Spider-Man. In short, Max looks ahead, does not exclude anything and in the meantime he enjoys it, celebrating «the years on a scooter always in two».
