Erja Lyytinen - Stranger # 497 / 500

Erja Lyytinen played the blues like I haven't heard in a long time. She and her band had returned home to Finland that very morning from Sweden, but she was joyfully energtic.

A true artist, she communicated with her appreciative audience, told stories, made jokes and was in a splendid mood.

 

A bit into the concert, the skies turned dark gray and the rain started to fall; Erja laughed and said that what was a bit of rain, it wouldn't bother us, right, people !

Right! The sun came back to reward her positiveness :-)

 

I really liked her sympathetic attitude onstage and made many photos of her. At a certain point, we had established eye contact and for a short moment, it felt like she was posing for me.

 

After the concert I went to see her. She was signing CDs and looked so happy.

I called out to her with my camera, she laughed, and once again she posed for me.

Really sweet lady!

 

Thank you, Erja !
