On March 14, 2025, Miguel Bosé reignited his musical legacy with his first concert at the Auditorio Nacional, captivating approximately 10,000 fans who eagerly awaited his return after nine years of absence. The concert, part of his 'Importante Tour', began at 20:40 with high spirits as Bosé took to the stage, dressed impeccably in white.
The evening started with Bosé performing his hit song "Mirarte". The venue erupted with excitement as the crowd welcomed the beloved artist back. His performance was punctuated with nostalgic hits, such as "Duende" and "El hijo del Capitán Trueno", both of which engaged the audience, prompting spontaneous outbursts of applause and cheers. "¡Buenas noches México! ¿cuánto tiempo ya que no nos vemos? Años, pero aquí estamos para retomar todos juntos un viaje, que dejamos colgado en el tiempo, es un viaje que nos pertenece a todos; lleno de recuerdos, de memorias, de cosas, que según vayan apareciendo en las canciones van saliendo," he expressed, drawing emotional connections as the music filled the air.
But the jubilant atmosphere was abruptly disrupted when, at 21:19, the audibly alarming sound of the earthquake alert broke through the melodies. A tremor of magnitude 5.5 had commenced, emanated from Tlaxiaco, Oaxaca. Although the audience initially thought it was part of the performance, realization dawned quickly as the venue's safety protocols kicked in. Many attendees began to evacuate, with staff expertly guiding the crowd toward emergency exits. The frantic scene contrasted sharply with the euphoric moments just moments earlier.
During this unexpected interruption, the audience complied with the instruction to leave the auditorium. Reports indicated up to 10,000 people were safely evacuated as Bosé, alongside his musicians, awaited instructions back stage. No injuries were reported.
For roughly 15 minutes, the concert was halted as safety personnel conducted necessary checks. Fortunately, once the area was deemed secure, Bosé returned to the stage. Surprisingly, he opened with the song "Sereno,” and with it, the audience's unease was swiftly quelled. Reassuringly, he remarked, "¿Cómo estamos? – preguntó Miguel Bosé a su público cuando el susto había pasado – hace cuántos años que hago el Auditorio, puede ser desde que se construyó y jamás, jamás había sucedido semejante cosa, no sé a ustedes. Mañana no se quejen, porque esto ha sido una super chingona producción.” His humor lightening the mood, the crowd laughed and cheered.
Throughout the resumed performance, Bosé dedicated songs to the notion of peace. "Nada bueno sale de la guerra," he stated during one poignant moment, connecting the audience through shared sentiments gathered over his extensive career. Many of his classic hits, including "Olvídame tú" and "Te amaré," brought forth memories and nostalgia, culminating with the unforgettable "Don Diablo" to close the concert.
The veteran singer knew how to captivate the hearts of his fans, many of whom had been waiting nearly a decade for this reunion. “Esta noche quiero darte un beso, pero de los besos que no se olvidan,” echoed through the room, as Bosé pledged another performance would follow suit later on. With his heartfelt goodbye, he concluded, "Gracias México! ahora sí buenas noches," leaving the audience buzzing with adrenaline and affection.
After the staggering first night of his "Importante Tour," which was celebrated as both thrilling and memorable, Miguel Bosé is scheduled to perform again on March 15, 2025. This tour promises to not only showcase beloved classics but also reinforce his status as one of the most emblematic figures of Spanish music. Fans can expect more enchanting moments and heartfelt connections as the tour extends across multiple cities, including Monterrey and Guadalajara, before heading to Europe and the United States.
