A packed Druzhba hall in Haskovo greeted Lubo Kirov at the concert on his national "Futurofonia" tour. The singer will play two nights in a row in Sofia, on November 13 and 14, in Hall 1 of the National Palace of Culture.
Earlier today, his team announced the concert and promised new musical ideas and surprises on stage.

Kirov opened by asking the crowd to join him on the musical journey he had prepared. "Tonight we have stories to tell, and one of them is about beautiful things," he said, and the hall answered with loud applause.
He played songs from the album "Futurofonia", which came out in May, including "Someone Loves You", along with big hits from over the years. "For me it matters that people like the new songs, and all the good things from the past too," Kirov said.
Singer Mona joined him on stage and the two performed several songs. She also sang the folk song "Prituri se planinata" a cappella. The audience sang along with Kirov, danced and several times applauded him on their feet.
Kirov said that when he meets fans, past, present and future come together in special moments. People like going back to the memories that music leaves behind, he said, and good moments deserve to be remembered and lived again.
Stanley and Mona sing on the album, in the songs "Moon" and "The Road to the Temple". Four other people wrote the music and lyrics: Momchil Kolev, Alexander Petrov, Maria Ganeva and Petar Anastasov. Guitarist Angel Dyulgerov did the arrangements.
Mona and Stanley will be special guests at the Sofia concerts.
