Due to an emergency in the audience, Pietro Lombardi interrupted his concert in Oberhausen for a short time. A replacement was quickly provided.
Pietro Lombardi (29) interrupted his concert in Oberhausen for around 20 minutes on Tuesday evening. The reason: A twelve-year-old boy in the front row collapsed due to circulatory problems, like the singer reported in several Instagram stories. “It was very clear to me to stop the show first and go with the little one to see if the little one was doing well,” explains Lombardi.
For him it is the most beautiful thing to be on stage. However, he himself is a father “and I could never spread a good mood if the child is not well and that’s why I went to the paramedics”. The young fan is doing well, Lombardi reveals.
Oliver Pocher takes over the stage
An entertaining substitute for the 20-minute break was quickly found. Oliver Pocher (44), a longtime friend of Lombardi, happened to be there and jumped onto the stage.
The comedian put Lombardi’s live band’s improvisational skills to the test and apparently struck up a few songs on the fly, as can be seen in numerous Instagram stories, which the comedian reposted. Fans cheered the comedian loudly. Lombardi’s conclusion on his concert evening in Oberhausen: “Everything ended peacefully and healthy.”
