Bryan makes it a night to remember in Gurgaon

Gurgaon: He came, he performed and left crooning and swaying fans asking for more; Canadian rock legend Bryan Adams wound up his five-city India tour with a first-time concert in the Delhi-NCR region.

Beginning his nearly two-hour gig at the Leisure Valley Park here with the 2017 hit 'Ultimate Love', which seamlessly segued into the one-two punch of Can't Stop This Thing We Started', he went on to belt 24 more numbers from his rich repertoire of songs before going solo on being persisted by the 15,000-strong crowd.

Taking the stage Adams said, We have been coming here since 1994. It's taken long and I've always asked our promoters, where is my Delhi show'? He went on to say, "I have all kinds of songs for you tonight, old ones, a few new ones."

Dressed in a blue T-shirt and jeans, Adams lit on fire the stage.

It was clear that the night was only going to get better as Reckless tour de force, Run To You' followed Can't Stop This Thing'. Go Down Rockin' continued the brisk start until the slow evergreen ballad Heaven'.

The crowd sang the first verse in unison, accompanied by only the piano.

Before he crooned the rock-n-roll number You Belong To Me', he told the crowd: Does anyone know how to dance? If somebody does an Indian dance, it will be beautiful. Or just do something silly or whatever you like. The best dancers will be put up on the screen. And the crowd went wild – twisting and twirling as if there's no tomorrow.

He concluded the evening with 'All For Love', a song from The Three Musketeers soundtrack that he originally performed with Sting and Rod Stewart.

Later in the night, he took to Instagram to thank his fans.

New Delhi, India, you were incredible tonight. In this photo, if you look carefully you can see my shadow silhouetted in the dust and smoke of the venue over the audience. I've never seen that before. Magical India. Namaste, he posted.
