In spite of the Day - Saturday, the Council shall grant the city permission to bury one of the best musicians in the city cemeteries. Found a place almost as Vysotsky - could go to the grave a lot of people. In order to avoid the excesses of the funeral, the musicians of "Cinema" even turned in the air local television to the fans. Theological cemetery several thousand people came. The first, the flowers on the grave colleagues Artemy Troitsky, Joanna Stingray, Kostya Kinchev and Andrei Makarevich, only half an hour had flown Leningrad set - the "Time Machine" had just concerts in Moscow. Even in the evening in the cemetery of those who say the farewell Tsoi, stretched for several kilometers. At the accident site ... Tukums that near Riga, the traffic police is not a sharp turn brake tail of the "Moskvich", ie find the version - the driver fell asleep at the wheel. Hard slaps bus "Icarus", which was on the wrong side, good travel without passengers flew into the river up to 100 meters from the accident site. Vitina motor car broke down, and his remains scattered in a radius of 60 meters. A wheel was never found. The car is just the boot lid with the unbroken glass, rear axle and compact cassette with songs from the new album, the recording of which just finished in the studio. Ceased to exist with the death of Choi and the "Cinema" ... - With Victor Tsoi imagined producer groups Yuri Ayzenshpis - said: "The fact of the" famous showman and singer Valerie's husband Joseph Prigogine. - It was in 1988. The "movie" was just at the height of his popularity, and I was just being introduced into show business ... - Meet at a party? - I worked at Ajzenshpisa driver. In general, he's my godfather in the entertainment industry - the first to give me a helping hand. I not only drove the law, but also helped him, went with him to the talks went through his actions, in fact, that friendships with people in the entertainment industry meringue. It was the same with the "Movie" - I helped Ajzenshpisom with Viktor Tsoi work. - Before the meeting with Tsoi you a fan of "cinema"? - I've never seen anyone a fan, but I like the work of these guys. And to this day, as it. I think, "Cinema" iconic and legendary group. Continue to communicate with their members. We have recently met with Yuri Kasparyanom who was a guitarist. He is now working with Slava Butusov. With Vitka we became friends. He came to me for my son's birthday in Biryulyovo Dima when they are a year old, was on my birthday. I went to him with a birthday party welcomed. - What was? - I do not remember. Then I could not imagine that one day die Viktor Tsoi is! This is not fit in my head. You'll laugh, but I have no pictures with Victor. I never liked going to the soul ... Generally, Vic was the golden boy. I had the feeling that link to me with the star. He did not show, not naughty ... It was just a great guy! We were friends for two years, but his death was a great tragedy for me. I can honestly say, six months in a state of shock. "Going to a funeral slept Viti, the first time on the plane" - Where you found the news of the death of his friend? - I found this in Volgodonsk, worked there for a cultural program ... I called Jura Ayzenshpis and Oleg Tolmachev, who worked as his manager. That Oleg Vitka went to pick up the body. According to him, it was there - to help! Just a mess. - And what was the version of the tragedy? - Suggests that he had fallen asleep at the wheel while driving to Jurmala. Then he is still her son and wanted to take ... Vic loved the city, loved to rest there, constantly shuttled fishing. - Choi was an avid car driver? - In my opinion, no. At least it seems that the ill-fated "Moskvich", where he crashed, he did not have a car - I took it in his "eight". A "Moskvich" together we are bought. It was, in my opinion, in May 1990. So his car Vic only valid for three months. I think he was beaten only a few thousand miles on it. Back then, the "Muscovites" a real boom was, they were all the rage, so here is just buy them was difficult. Jury Ayzenshpis agreement with the plant, and we drove in the car AZLK. Selected auto color of wet asphalt. Gave 32 and a half thousand. Later it turned out that we had been cheated of 2500 rubles, we even angry. Choi does not immediately want to drive a new car. "I'm afraid of something, - he said -. Yos, you can sit behind the wheel, and I'm on." I remember we had just the circumference of the ring to the left, and we ran out of gas. I stopped a truck. The driver can see, Tsoi was overjoyed. Vic also asked signed on the back by hand was not the paper. I was surprised. "Vit - I say - and how they, narrow eyes, so find out, for example, I do not know, and for me, because you all seem like negros, - Per Person" We reached Belyaevo where Victor lived, drove from the farm of my "eight" and under the tarp just bought brand new cars. Went to the house, drinking tea with chocolate, and I drove in his car at the airport Choi. He then flew with Joanna Stingray on tour in Japan. More we had not seen. Call a few times on the phone. He was somewhere on Elbrus, hear my song, which was then spun - I was just at the time of the singing of great interest. Praised! - Premonition before the tragedy, there were no? - One day I met at the airport Sheremetyevo Vitka on their "Lada". We are driving on the highway, he said, "Yo, go, of course, only help! Exactly one day you will get in an accident "And so it was - .. After a while, in an accident and has very serious, but, thank God, still alive but with Vitka see how ... no concerns, there was no . bad thoughts Everything was super easy Group "Movies" at his peak was Tsoi -. total of 28 years - the most prosperous, he is the hero of millions Once, I remember, with Ayzenshpis Lisowski gave a concert at the Grand Sports Arena, two days sold 70,000 tickets .. This report was not beaten anyone in Russia -. At the funeral were - The funeral will not count because ... slept on the plane, this was the only time in my life gets from Volgodonsk to Moscow by train was tragic for me ... 1990 is usually: I lost two people who were very dear to me ... August 15 fell Choi, and the 30th death of my father, who was only 52 years old, I can honestly , say I have never been to the cemetery. Tsoi. CAN NOT, I was, and just on the Arbat, where every year agreed to commemorate the Vite a memorial service and lit hundreds of candles. because he lives in our hearts, I will never forget that Victor Tsoi not I still believe that he is the best, still love his songs -.., I have yet to hear -. Course I even have a few tapes in the car, when the mood is -. These included a real rock musician -. cool guys, that's not the show business that I now believe Tsoi, the messenger of God who came to tell us something ... I am proud and happy, not in this life. only to be touch and as a man, and touched the story, "In his first Choi played in the film" Chernobyl "in the summer, so always drink red wine" with Viktor Tsoi Ukrainian filmmaker and journalist Sergei Lysenko fate brought early 1986th -. As with the current generation of iconic device is a computer, so for my subject was tape - says Sergey. - We are all brought to the gang culture. First it was the western teams, then in the mid-80s came the underground Soviet rock groups. As soon as a guest of his friend, I heard the first album Tsoi - "45". And, as they say, was delighted. Then I, V students of the faculty of the Kiev Film Theatre Institute, prepares to fire on his work. I decided that this will be a musical film, which must necessarily contain a group of "Cinema". I bought a ticket for the train to Leningrad, and went into the street. In Leningrad, through a friend grabbed the phone Petersburg rock club, where I was given a house number Viti. I called him and said, "Victor, I want to let you and your group are in a movie." We met at the legendary Cafe "Saigon", where all the musicians hang out. I gave Choi read the script, and he loves it. Victor gladly agreed to do it. Then the "Movie" is not yet publicly known band, but Choi knew his worth. He is interested versed in music, he had impeccable taste. - Long Shot? - The movie "The End of Vacation" - small, into three parts. The shooting took place about two weeks. "Filmmaker" in Kiev in early summer arrived, it was in 1986. We then still numb "Scoop" - the Soviet Union. Late in the evening, at about 11.12, I went to the guys in the "Borispol" to do justice. When she came down the stairs dressed in black, wearing dark glasses, I had (still remember) the feeling that I let the genie out of the bottle. - Outside of work, informally communicated? - Victor was completely closed. At the end, when we no longer know each other to communicate easier. A few evenings spent talking. Choi looked like a very reasonable person. Just in time for the shooting occurred Vitina birthday - 21 June. I gave him a plate of "Duran Duran" - he loved her then. As it go is a "Chernobyl" summer boys were a little scared, to Kiev, exploded near where nuclear power plant. Not yet arrived. How do you know the best way to remove radionuclides from the body - red wine. During the festival, and it was his drinking problem. Choi to drink pretty laid back, as well as for any kind of stimulants, despite the widespread belief that rock musicians - is drugs, massive battles, broken furniture in hotels. Children lived at the hotel "Slavutich" that. On the left bank of the Dnieper No excesses. However, once, I remember, Choi came to the shoot with a broken lip. He said that he slipped and fell together, we do not believe it, but not to ask. - Do not go the funeral of Victor in Leningrad? - No War on the first anniversary of the death of Choi, with his film. Received very good. Especially since this is the first movie, who played Victor's. At the end, when the last song began to play "Try to sing along with me," all the fans sitting in the hall rushed to the screen, knelt down and lit candles, torches, lighters ...
