That of fear and that of sleep have certainly been overcome by the tattoo artist Roberto Feltran, 25, and by the civil servant Camila Lamin, 24, who have been camping since Thursday 31 in front of the Interlagos racecourse, where The cityfor their idolatry Demi Lovato.
“We are a group of 14 and we took turns: one group came in the morning, another in the afternoon, another at dawn,” describes Camila. “For Demi I give my life.”
Despite the difficulties they encountered camping out on the street for two days, they said the space was well guarded. “They also gave us the telephone so we could call if there was any attempted robbery or violence,” says Roberto.
The gates of the first edition of The Town opened promptly at 2pm this Saturday 2, and the long-awaited show will only take place at night, after 8pm, but the duo have a secret to hold on to for so long. “We have diapers because there’s no way we’re missing the railing. From this railing here, just the stage railing,” said Roberto.
“We put it this morning because there’s no chance we’ll lose the network. The other days we use the toilets of the bakeries and cafes on the street,” explains Camila. “After Demi it will be time to enjoy the festival,” they said.

“We’ll see Tasha and Tracie at 2.40pm on stage at The One and then head to the Skyline to reserve our seats. But we’ve also made friends with Post Malone fans to take turns on the grill,” Lucca says.
