Background

By the end of 2008, Optimus presented a new format of concerts, starting in December, at the Optimus Store house of music that opened in Porto at the time. These special performances for 100 guests only, had floor space designed especially for events related to music. Deliberately restricted, these concerts had the objective to ensure a more intimate and familiar, especially in thinking most devoted fans of each guest artist.[2]

For each of these concerts, Optimus offered 50 double tickets, which would be allocated through the site musica.optimus.pt and to the customers who subscribed to certain services or features.[2]

Slimmy performed on two days: on 19 and 20 June 2008. The album was released and available through Optimus in a limited digital edition during the months of November and December 2008 at the Optimus Store, for a price of 2€.[3]
