Punk-rock legends Goblini will perform on July 9 in Donji Grad on Kalemegdan as the opening act for world star Billy Idol, at a big Belgrade concert organized by the production company Long Play
Branko Golubović Golub and the team will, without a doubt, blast out a set of the greatest hits from all phases of his career, which began way back in 1992, and thus provide the best possible warm-up for the performance of the world famous rocker. "Cipjonka", "U magnovenje", "Anja, I love you", "LSD is coming home", "The long way", "Children from the neighborhood", "Somewhere before dawn" will be performed in Kalemegdan.
Golub points out that it is an honor to perform with a musician like Billy Idol, and adds with a smile:
"Unfortunately, I am old enough to talk about the beginnings of his career. The band Generation X was active in the seventies. They were the embodiment of raw punk, that English wave, which suited me personally and came to us earlier than American punk."

Memories just keep coming back...
"I grew up in Šabac, but generally in Yugoslavia at that time it was not so easy to find albums, especially bands of that type. 'Wild Youth', a song from that period, was the first Billy Idol track I heard. On his debut solo album, some things had already gone into post-punk, and Billy became a world star. He played a big role in my musical development."
The frontman of Goblin wishes that the band members also get to know Idol: "I would also like to chat a little about the old seventies and eighties. I hope that people will enjoy not only their concert, but also our performance. We can't wait. We are here!".

Billy Idol, let's remind you, will arrive in Belgrade on July 9 as part of the European part of the "It's a Nice Day To...Tour Again" tour. There are still very few tickets left for sale, through the Tickets network, for the fan pit, which cost 8.000 dinars, as well as for the VIP zone, at a price of 12.000 dinars. 5.500 dinars should be set aside for a ticket on the ground floor.

Large world productions view the area of the former Yugoslavia as a single market, which is why Serbia, Montenegro, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina are presented together in the Southeast Europe Pavilion.
The director of the Šabac Theater cancels the performances, and the ones starring MP Lepomir Ivković and Branislav Lečić are played. She decides everything herself
The Beldocs Documentary Film Festival came of age with a clear demand to release the activists, giving recognition to all educational and university workers.
In the frenzy of political events and dramas in Serbia, ten days ago, a spectacular multi-level event brought together academia, politics, architecture, Europe, Novi Sad, micropolitics and a top artistic event. The news that Vladan Joler, artist, professor at the Academy of Arts in Novi Sad and founder of the "Share" foundation, won the Silver Lion at the Venice Biennale of Architecture resonated as if it were some kind of collective victory, or at least the promise of a good outcome.
As a special-purpose parastatal that uses metal bars to create "order and peace", Vučić is legalizing the hoodies. It is - approximately - something similar to Mussolini's "combat alliances" from 1919-1922.
Lucky that Serbia has the "Informer research team"! Dragan J. Vučićević discovered the infernal plan of "criminals" and "blockaders" at the last minute and thus saved the country again. That he is lying is less important
Keeping sociology professor Marija Vasić in prison on charges of terrorism is an anti-civilization crime. Or grotesque, whatever you want. Why don't judges, prosecutors, policemen, security guards rebel against it
