Dobrze, dobrze. Pogoda Piękna, bo Maj w końcu Majówka is like in Poland It's like the long May weekend, yes? Yes, exactly, exactly I just only said the month, yes, by May But as you said, Majówka Is like this long weekend Yes, like weekday weekend Exactly Dobrze, dobrze, a u Ciebie?
¶ Concerts in Poland
Wszystko z porządku Okej, dzisiaj temat Idziemy na koncert You can, you can. So, the direct translation. Will we go to the concert? Exactly. Dokładnie. I can also do the May. I'm sure, I'm sure, that somewhere there is... But is there a billet available? The billet is the last one. You bought everything. Yes, it's possible, that it's already bought. It's possible that it's all, yeah.
Okay, so dear students, firstly, na początku, miejsca, w których koncerty mogą się odbywać, so the places where the concert can take place. Stadion. Stadion. It's like stadium. Like, na przykład, w Łodzi Atlas Arena. To jest bardzo dobre i bardzo dużo. Tak, tak. Yes, also, yeah, I forgot to give... You're right. But it's kind of stadium. Yes, let's say. Yes, arena. Arena, stadion. I think it's like the dream of every singer to perform performance at such a big stage.
So we have a stadium, a smaller, more climatic club. The clubs are not only for dancing. Of course, during a concert, they can be, but not only for such a break. Not only for entertainment, but... Okay, music is kind of entertainment. It depends, because for example, For those people who play the westerns of Ireland. In the skrzypcach? Yes, there are a lot of people who sit and listen. And sometimes people touch. It depends on who is the artist.
Although classical music is rather not in the club. More than, you know, when I sing a song, some singers, yeah? Yeah. Or DJs, yeah? Okay. Miejsce dla muzyki klasycznej na pewno będzie w teatrze, tak, teatr, albo na przykład filharmonii, tak, like the filharmonic hall, or concert hall, hala koncertowa. Ale również spotykamy się z koncertami na zewnątrz, so we call it koncert plenerowy, koncert w plenerze, outdoor concert.
W Polsce jest to popularne. Często nawet miasta dla mieszkańców organizują, płacą za te koncerty i one są tak na zewnątrz, tak outdoor. I tak każdy może przyjść. Jest wolny. Jest free entrance.
¶ Understanding Concert Vocabulary
Dobrze. Dalej mamy co? Dalej mamy bilet. Taki reminder from the last lesson. Billet ticket, ticket office, kasa biletowa. And of course, when we are at the stadium, we wait for our bridge, which is the bridge. It's the gate. The first time, when you are at the stadium, you always feel like you don't know anything. But then you understand, oh, bridge is 8, and the bridge is 8. Tak, zgadza się, zgadza się. And also, as I mentioned, gate at the airport, tak?
Proszę, proszę kierować się do bramki, numer blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, for example. Obviously, there's a vocabulary for people who haven't bought tickets yet, but usually zazwyczaj kupujemy te bilety z góry or online, yeah, albo internetowo, także. I'm afraid of it, that I speak too fast. No, you're all right. Is it okay? Is it okay? Okay.
¶ Personal Concert Experiences
You know, I do my best. I do what I do in my power. I give myself everything to speak freely. But my nature... It doesn't allow, doesn't allow. Okay. Also, we usually, usually the concerts have some seats. Yes, to seat. Tak? Miejsca, miejsca do siedzenia. So, seat is miejsce. Scena, scena is stage. Tak? Na przykład, here is a phrase. Super, like great. Mamy miejsce przy scenie. We have a place in front of the stage. Yes, exactly. It can also be VIP, but it's close. Yes, exactly.
So, what do I want to say? So when it comes to stage, scena. And on this stage, there is a performance of an artist. There is a person's voice. Artists similar like in English. I również w języku angielskim jest coś takiego jak star. Zawsze, zawsze, zawsze ludzie mówią, gwiazdy, gwiazdy to są na niebie. Gwiazdy to są na niebie, nie na scenie. Ale, ale, ale. Ale na Piotrkowska jest Gwiazda na podłoga i inni, ale nie tylko artyst na muzykę może być dyrektor, reżyser.
Tak, czyli taka łódzka Aleja Gwiazd. Tak? Tak. Tak jak w Los Angeles, tak? Jest taka Aleja Gwiazd, wiadomo. To tutaj też jest Aleja Gwiazd. Chyba aktorzy też są aktors. Dokładnie, tak. Reżyserzy. Okay. And what? The last phrase, for example, the concert lasts for about two hours, right? The concert lasts for about two hours. The concert will last about two hours? Yeah, exactly. It's a direct meaning. Yeah. And... I was on a couple of concerts.
On a club, on a Prodigy, on a stadium, on a U2, Eminem and 50 Cent. And on outdoors, I forget it in Polish, on a Arman Van Buren. And to you, what was the concert you were doing? The concert, which I remember, the pay back, It was on the PGE National Stadium, our national stadium in Warsaw, in Warsaw. And it was in February 2023, the weekend concert, so foreign concert also. You probably know this band, not band, he's like one artist, but it is called, yes, the weekend, you know.
Abel, Abel was, oh great, Abel był świetny, koncert, unforgettable, niezapomniany, also some visual effects, również efekty wizualne, mieliśmy te bransoletki ze światełkami, wiesz, cały stadion, cały stadion się świecił. No, that's how it's being, I think I'd have to watch that. Yeah, that's how it's being, I think I'd have to watch that. Vocal on live, like his vocal on life, something amazing, coś niezwykłego. Ale również chodzę na koncerty polskich artystów, yes, like...
It'd be one in Ireland, but T-Love, T-Love is... Oh, yeah, I know, I know, I know, I know. Yeah, yeah, when it comes to me, jeśli chodzi o mnie, rzadko, rzadko chodzę na zagranicznych, tak, artystów, na koncerty zagranicznych artystów.
¶ Popular Festivals in Poland
Usually it is all during, Opener Festival. Co roku chodzę na Opener. To jest chyba jeden z najbardziej popularnych festiwali w Polsce. Słyszałeś o nim? On jest w Gdyni, na północy Polski. To tam jest dużo zagranicznych artystów. To tam na przykład... Dua Lipa też była świetna w zeszłym roku. To właśnie na festiwalu. To też wspominam super. A ostatnim razem The Last Time, Kaśka Sochad. It's a Polish artist, maybe you've heard, maybe not, maybe on my TikTok you've heard some covers.
For students who learn Polish and have broken heart, Kaśka is like medicine, you're like him. So, I really like to go to concerts, so if you ask me, I really love it, I really love it, I really love it, I love it, I adore it. I remember, Depeche Mode in ACSRM was a fantastic concert. And it was also funny, because I was able to buy a movie and say, it's a concert from the studio of Roger Walters. I don't know Roger Walters. Who it is? It's Pink Floyd. And I was like, it was fantastic.
But when he said Roger Walters, I don't know. But I also, I'd like to do it. It's very good. So. So, we like the two concerts, as you can see. Share in the comments. Share, share and comment. Where have you been the last time? What's your last concert?
