The session was organized by the well-known Brest group Sad. Participated: the organizers themselves (headliners), the group "Helter-Scelter" from Pinsk, Brest residents "Give the road!" and Clay. A team from Rechitsa "Astral" was announced, but it did not come.
This event has the most direct relation to the history of "White Night Blues" - this event was the first outing concert of the band. Its prehistory is as follows: after the debut at the Last Echelon festival, unexpectedly for the musicians themselves (recall that they positioned participation in the festival as a one-time project), there was quite a lot of media interest in what was happening with White Night Blues. Interviews and articles in the printed press followed one after another, and invitations to participate in radio programs appeared.
На «Радыё-Сталіца» группа стала гостем прямого эфира в авторской передаче Александры Рудницкой «Хамелеон» 12 июня 2000-го . During the broadcast, the editors were unexpectedly contacted by an unusual listener who expressed many well-stated and well-founded compliments to the group, and immediately invited the musicians to a concert in Brest.
That respected interlocutor on the air turned out to be a journalist and musicologist at the Department of Music at the Associate Professor Gennady Shostak. Alexandra Rudnitskaya immediately, for the entire republic, authoritatively confirmed that this person would not let you down. So "White Night Blues" ended up in Brest.

Vladimir Serafimov, the leader of the Sad group and the main author, in addition to all his other talents, also comprehended the secrets of controlling the subconscious of listeners (pay attention to the Knight of the sad image in the first row).

What does the poet see when he raises his eyes to heaven? Perhaps, “Spider Web in the Sky”, maybe “Kerosin”, “Absinthe” is not excluded (ed. note - the names of the songs of the Sad group). On the right is a wonderful bass player and sound engineer Anatoly Kharitonov.
