The extensive list of demands they made to play at Estádio da Luz revealed

It was two weeks ago that Calema made history in Portugal by selling out the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon. It was the first time that a Portuguese-speaking group managed to fill the largest sports venue in Portugal with an exclusively musical show. The show also featured well-known names among Portuguese musicians such as Mariza, Dino D'Santiago, Anselmo Ralph, Sara Correia and João Pedro Pais.

But if the concert was grand, the same cannot be said of the list of demands made by brothers António and Fradique Mendes Ferreira . According to Correio da Manhã, it is a list without eccentric requests. Thus, among the requests are simple items for the dressing room, such as a rug , two armchairs, four chairs, lamps with soft light, a full-length mirror and a cart with 10 hangers .

They also include a fridge, electric kettle, microwave and a triple extension cord . As for drinks, it's the same as any other! There are lots of teas (chamomile, lemon balm, lime blossom and green), natural juices, smoothies, lemon Frize, Coca-Cola Zero, Aquarius and Compal. They also include lemon, ginger and honey, which are known to help care for the voice.

Snacks include cereal bars, fresh fruit, nuts, various chocolates (such as Mars, Snickers and KitKat), regional bread, cheese and sausage boards, savory snacks and soups (chicken soup is preferred). After the show, there is also room for heavier dishes such as steak sandwiches or kebabs. They also request a bottle of reserve red wine, of Portuguese origin whenever possible.
