Vasco rehearsing in Rimini: “The setlist begins with a song that…”
It’s almost time for the tour to start.”Vasco live 2026” and the musician from Zocca continues to hold updated the public after starting the general rehearsals at the Romeo Neri Stadium in Riminiwhere next Saturday May 30th will be held there zero date of the tour. On his very updated Instagram profile these days Vasco Rossi is sharing images of the Rimini arena, which has a capacity of 24,000 seats.
“His Majesty the Stage! Perfect for mega galactic production“, is the message that accompanies a series of photos of the Romeo Neri Stadium in Rimini with the stage set up. The post continues: “I can’t wait for it all to begin. I can’t wait to own this amazing stage, play it here in Rimini and then take it around Italy. It’s a different ride than usual. Far from big cities. I can’t wait anymore! Hurray!!!”
Over the next few hours, Vasco continued to deliver details from the rehearsals getting to the heart of the show that fans can expect from this new round of concerts and sharing details on the concert lineup. Accompanying a carousel of images from the live rehearsals, Blasco wrote: “Rimini! We started warming up the engines at the Romeo Neri stadium!”. Piquing the fans’ curiosity even further, he added:
“The setlist will amaze you… it starts with a song that no one expects, rearranged. It will be a good blow.
Once the first song has been chosen, it’s like the incipit of a book, the other songs follow suit.
The first three must be strong pieces, tight, without pause, like at my first concerts when I continued to play to avoid being insulted by the audience”.
Vasco thus moved on to anticipate the atmosphere of the subsequent songs scheduled at the concerts and he let it be known the logic behind the construction of the lineup writing: “With the fourth song comes an emotional wallop, the emotional ballad. The songs they must form a mental waveand, both in the lyrics and in the music. Then from the fifth we start pushing again… and so on, with all of the well-studied emotional swings. There must be a balance between two songs that are close in tone, we are careful about that.”
For months, Vasco Rossi has continued to throw out clues about what will be the songs of “Vasco live 2026”, which from the previews seems to have a strong Eighties component with titles like “Alibi” and “Soap Bubbles”while it is clear that there will be no shortage of great classicsfrom “Vita spericolata” – chosen as the opening of last year’s live shows, “Albachiara”, “Sono solo noi”, “Gli ordini sopra”, “Bollicine”, “Vivere” and “Rewind”. Already a few weeks ago the singer-songwriter had left clues about the setlist, which had been defined for months now, and last January he had provided indications on the last song chosen to close the concerts.
After Rimi’s zero date, the tour will continue throughout June and will see Vasco Rossi then stop in Ferrara, Bari, Olbia, Ancona and Udine.
