Ainars Virga once slept in a coffin

Although he himself claims that it is an exaggeration, the Latvian Rolling Stones and Ozijs Osborns – ed. Virgu, reports the TV show “Congratulations, Jubilee!”

If he were only the author of the song “Dzimtā valoda”, that alone would have recorded his place in the history of Latvian music, similar to the title of the song, which is now carved into the cobblestone of Liepāja.

Ainars is like a time hunter – it’s interesting that the show “Congratulations!” Uldis Briezis’ photo album with his name is given to him on his birthday. Virga, on the other hand, has a smoky memory story about the photographer Uldis Briedi: “It was a time when I was 15 or 16 and life in Liepāja was quite stormy – I didn’t always spend the night at home. Uldis had a room where the guys stayed overnight. There was no bed there, but there was a coffin, and then there was nothing left but to sleep in the coffin, “Ainars smiles.

Ainars has many stories, one more colorful than the other: after a concert, it was too late, but Ainars and his band members had nowhere to stay overnight. The local pastor gladly allowed him to spend the night in the church, so he asked to play at the church the next morning. Honorable thing – grateful rock musicians gladly rewarded the pastor.
