Per Gessle concert chronology

Party Crasher tour 2009 is a club European tour by Per Gessle in support of his studio solo album Party Crasher. The tour was held in Europe from 16 April, till 10 May 2009. Along with the songs from the aforementioned CD, Gessle and his band played tracks by Roxette and from Gessle's solo albums like The World According to Gessle, Son of a Plumber, etc.

For Gessle's fans, as well as for Roxette's ones, this tour was important, because Marie Fredriksson joined Per on stage in Amsterdam and in Stockholm, which brought about the reunion of Roxette. This was confirmed when a press release stated they were to perform later in 2009 at the "Night of the Proms" series in Europe in October–December 2009.

On 28 March 2009, Helena Josefsson told on her official site, that her husband Martinique will play as support act during the tour. Before the tour started, three weeks rehearsals were held in Stockholm. Per also asked his fans at The Daily Roxette portal, which 3 songs would they like him to perform live. Thus, he wanted to choose some tracks he has never played live, which his fans would like to hear.

Two days before the tour started, on 14 April 2009, in Stockholm's Tyrol club, a promo concert was held for the band members' friends and the EMI officials.

Some of the material recorded from the tour was released as an album, Gessle over Europe.[1]
