Describing the tour, Legend emphasized its intimate nature. "I'm on stage by myself, telling my story and singing my songs. It's an opportunity to create a special atmosphere with the audience," he explained. While he appreciates grand, technologically advanced shows, he finds a unique connection in intimate performances where the audience feels close to the artist's humanity.

Legend expressed his excitement about visiting Croatia for the first time. "I've heard wonderful things about your country, the coast, and the food," he said, adding that friends have spoken highly of it. He eagerly awaits experiencing it himself. When asked what comes to mind when he hears "Lijepa Naลกa" (Croatia's national anthem, often used to refer to the country), he immediately thought of the beautiful coast and sea.

I've heard wonderful things about your country, the coast, and the food. I've never performed in Croatia. This will be the first time and I'm very excited to come.

Legend also revealed that his family, including his four children, will accompany him for a significant part of his European tour. This marks the first time his two youngest children will join him on tour. He plans to wear suits for the Pula performance, reflecting his established fashion sense. Legend is currently in New York, having recently completed a solo tour across the U.S., and is looking forward to bringing his European tour to the continent.

I think of the beautiful coast and sea. All my friends who have been to Croatia say how beautiful it is and I can't wait to see it myself.
