Bauru, March 9th

a-ha played the first of seven Brazilian concerts yesterday – and their first ever show in the city of Bauru.

The concert was held in a huge tent that had been set up in the parking lot outside the Alameda Quality Center and attracted an audience of 3 000 people.

With 23 songs in total, the setlist was even longer than in Buenos Aires and included a rare performance of “Touchy” – which hasn’t been played live since 1994. In addition, several songs were shuffled around during the last half of the set.
