It will be a season-worthy conclusion to his thirty-year career for Max Pezzali, at the Circus Maximus for what will likely become his biggest concert to date.
Of circus maximus to maximum circus it is a moment Max Pezzali presented today in Rome, with a particularly well-attended press conference at the Campidoglio, which will undoubtedly become one of the most important live events of 2023. An extraordinary appointment that will close their summer tour and which, like the concerts of stadium last year, also includes a large number of notable guests.
Max Pezzali at the Circus Maximus
Respecting what is not a cliché but simply his way of being, Max Pezzali shows up at the Campidoglio riding his harley davidson. Or rather… one of their own. His collection is quite extensive. Some of it he has kept since the beginning of his career with the Mauro Repetto they 883. specifically only one athletesthe first he bought with the rich income of They killed Spider-Man. Others he bought, resold, and customized.
In Rome he presents himself with a recent model, the enduro, very different from the very noisy models with which he loved to wander around the university campuses and those of Borgo Ticino. For him it is the first time in the city hall of Rome…
First time at the Capitol
the concert of Pezzali toward circus maximus It is scheduled for September 2, the only one of its summer season. It is the same space, gigantic, where springsteen last Sunday brought 60 thousand people and where I genesis gathered half a million spectators at the mythical free concert in 2007. Pezzali he is one of the few in Italy who can think of filling an arena that can also be terrifying…
“I have played many times in Rome, almost always at the PalaEur. Al Campidoglio is my first time and I’m also a bit excited. – says Pezzali – It’s not every day you get to talk about such an important project. Circus Maximus is… the best! One of those things that once you’ve done it you better think about leaving it the next day. Of course, after playing at the San Siro, one of those things you dream about all your life, the Circus Maximus is another challenge that excites me”.
Lots of friends on stage.
Like in the San Siro, Pezzali does not want to face the challenge alone: “I wanted to involve many people who have always been close to me. Who, like Article 31s, has shared a long way. In the 90s we shared snacks, drinks and dressing rooms with them. Paola and Chiara will be there, to whom I am united not only by many memories of the stage and of the tour, but also by a long friendship. And then there’s the whole gang from Albertino’s old DeeJay Time.”
A show within the show that will also mean Colapesce Dimartino, Dargen D’Amico, Sangiovanni and Lazza on a path that from the 90s leads to the present but always following a common thread that is not only artistic, but also narrative.
“Everybody is Big Brother”
Paula and Clara were born with Max Pezzali leaving the stage when Mauro Repetto had already left 883. The two iezzi sisters, also discovered by Cecchetto who had seen them in some Milanese clubs where they performed with various cover bands, went on tour for two years and almost 100 concerts. Neck acoustic guitar and choral arrangements.
Honorable AlexanderRome City Councilor for Major Events, is particularly involved in the decision to focus on Pezzali: “I was 12 years old when Nord Sud Ovest Est came out with them, we cried, we had fun, we fell in love, we waited with Max’s songs that you can’t help but love. It’s like he’s an added brother or close friend. Someone who always knows how to interpret the dreams and hopes of the new generations. In the meantime they have changed but they continue to see it as a point of reference”.
“I will not be like Jovanotti”
fun the way Max Pezzali Tell how your show will be. More concerts or more events? Maybe like Jovanotti’s? “Noooo – mocks – I am and I continue to be a forced man, a tamarro like when we debuted with Mauro Repetto. It will be something big but simple. People like me still think that if I did it, anyone can do it.”
Rome it has been his town for some time, where he married and raised a family: “I love touring the city on my motorcycle. I like to look at it from the terrace of the Gianicolo, reach the Zodiac and take my time to reflect. Here I learned that you have no control over many things. So you can’t solve them. In Rome I learned to say… sticazzi. Here I even made friends with a wild boar that every afternoon waited for me outside the house, looking at me and waiting for a greeting”.
