From an interview in Musicweek 29.08.2009:

"The 1991 Rock In Rio festival, which should have been the jewel in a-has crown, was, instead, a moment of crushing despair. The nine-day event featured megaheadliners

including Guns N Roses, George Michael and Prince, but towering above them all was a-ha whose show at the Maracanã Stadium drew a Guinness World Record-breaking crowd of 196,000

[Cta2006]

the largest paying audience ever.

MTV interviewed everybody except us, remembers Waaktar-Savoy. They were all calling their bosses and saying, We must cover a-ha, its the only night that has sold out. But they werent allowed to.

[Cta2006]

I felt very alienated, says Furuholmen. Still, we were excited to read the NME and Melody Maker, because we felt at least theyd have to acknowledge our popularity.

Instead, they wrote about Happy Mondays. It made us feel hopeless. We played to the biggest crowd in the world and they ignored it.

Amazing. Great band, great performance, fantastic crowd. Go A-ha, Go Brazil!

oh this isnt performed by stratovarius :( but is still good

[beatkraftz]

Wow....A-ha all the way. This is so so deep. You guys are a true inspiration. Growing up listening to the music of A-ha has given me so many memories and the motivation to be a musician. Many bands in my teenage days in my town were formed just because they wanted to play the music of A-ha. Unforgettable memories...aaah.

Rock in Rio nostalgic. The best event ever !

@Cta2006 sad story indeed..one of the most underrated band with one the most beautiful voice of our time.
