Bryan Adams 2024-11-20 MEO Arena, Lisbon

Wed, November 20, 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal @ MEO Arena

The tour of Bryan Adams is: "So Happy It Hurts Tour 2024".
It was my 16th Bryan Adams show. My 1st one was in December 13, 1991 in Estádio José de Alvalade, Lisbon.

I arrived at MEO Arena at 05:15 am. I was the 1st one to arrive to the queue. Talked to my old friends during the day. Doors opened at 19:30 and I run to the middle of the catwalk and Bryan Adams was scheduled to start at 21:00.

There was an intro of 15 minutes that started at 21:00 where a flying car (powered by drones) was flying over the Arena above the public with some audio songs by Bryan Adams in the background.

Finally was time for Bryan Adams. He started at 21:15 and played 150 minutes. Played a set of 29 songs.

Love the concert. Bryan Adams always happy, talked a lot about his time in Birre when he was little with his family. Telling a lot of stories on this show even showing old slides from the times he was here in Portugal.
