After more than 25 years on stage, Norwegian pop-rock band a-ha is about to round it up.
To bid farewell, the band started a tour around the world that will finish in their native Oslo, Norway, at the end of the year.
Those Vikings surely have something to be proud of.
They released nine albums and grabbed eight MTV awards to date.
The name “a-ha” is spelled in the lowercase because of its unusual origin.
While writing a song, guitarist Paul Waaktaar-Savoy kept repeating “a-ha.”
It occurred to the band that this could work as a cool title – short, unusual and easy to remember.
Just to make sure, the guys checked a couple of dictionaries to see that in many languages “a-ha” stood for an exclamation of approval.
Nov. 4, 7 p.m., Mizhnarodny Vystavkovy Tsentr, 15 Brovarsky Prospekt. Tickets: Hr 390-3990.
