Santo Domingo.- Nostalgia is again converted back into business, Ed Kowalczyk, lead singer of the defunct American rock band Live, which reached its peak and popularity in the nineties, Wednesday night offered a big concert at the Teatro la Fiesta Jaragua hotel.


Kowalczyk after leaving Live, launched a solo career, was accompanied by a new band that debuted just this night, on a modest stage, a discrete set of lights, and a theater La Fiesta full to capacity.

The first song heard was "Drive", which was followed by "All Over You," "The Distance", "Just in time", "The Great Beyond" and the famous "Selling the Drama", in which the people rose spontaneously to their feet to clap, sing and even dance.

With the song "I alone" the band gave the most charismatic moments of the evening, amid the same Kowalczyk seized and introduced the members of his new band, while the audience was delighted with the palms. He continued with "Grace" song from his new solo album.

With "Heaven" Kowalczyk said goodbye to the audience, returning minutes later with "Operation Spirit" in which he appealed to the acoustic sound, was dedicated to Gamal Hache, a businessman who brought the country, who he said was his favorite piece.

The public reacted ecstatic when he recognized the first drum beats of "Pain Lies on the Riverside", first song that appears in his classic album "Mental Jewerly" which netted Live global stardom in the nineties.

This was followed with "In your light," another of the new songs, after giving way to "The Beauty of Gray", the most popular song of the band in our country.

Around 11:16 p. m. parted the stage with the sentimental "Lightning Crashes", another of the great songs that marked the band in his career.

Amid applause and shouts of the crowd demanding more, Kowalczyk and his band returned to perform "Dance with you", thus giving an end to the concert.
