When did it appear younger sister Nikolai Larisa, mother began to work from home to raise her child. Rastorguev studied at school without enthusiasm, and not everything was smooth with his behavior. His circle of friends were the guys from the yard. One friend’s mother was a cinema director, so friends could often watch films. And so one day Nikolai saw the film “A Hard Day’s Night”, starring members of the cult group The Beatles. This moment had a great impact on the future of the teenager. It was after watching this film that the guys started playing guitars. At first, it seemed like a completely frivolous hobby. But life decreed otherwise. After graduating from school, Rastorguev entered the Moscow Institute of Technology light industry. He was not particularly interested in studying, and soon he began to skip classes. The principled leader of the group reported objectively about what was happening in his “patrimony”, and therefore the careless student Rastorguev was deprived of his scholarship for frequent absences. Then Nikolai decided to “deal with” this headman: he started a fight with him and sent him to a hospital bed. After the fight, Rastorguev was reprimanded and was unable to pass the exams, after which he was expelled. I had to go to work.

Then Nikolai found himself in the Rondo group, where he played bass guitar for a year and a half. Later he was the vocalist of the group “Hello, song!”. Everything changed when in 1989 life path Rastorgueva crossed paths with composer Igor Matvienko. This was the beginning of a fruitful union. Nikolay suggested for new group the name "Lube", which in slang meant "different". As planned, this characterized the genre diversity of the musical group. Two debut compositions were recorded at the Sound studio: “Old Man Makhno” and “Lube”. A couple of months after recording, the song “Old Man Makhno” was already heard on the radio. When the group first appeared on television, it was accompanied by resounding success, which, perhaps, the musicians themselves did not expect. As I recall, Alla Pugacheva herself once gave advice on her stage image: this is how the signature tunic and tarpaulin boots appeared. Over many years creative activity The team's most successful compositions were the songs "Combat", "You carry me like a river", "There beyond the fogs", "Birches", "Come on!" and many others.

To be fair, it is worth noting that the Crimean Nazi Rastorguev fell in love with German soil almost immediately after Russia’s occupation of Crimea:
Elena Rykovtseva, January 2, 2015
· Germany, Baden-Württemberg, Baden-Baden ·
About two patriots living in Baden-Baden. Misha. He's been here for two decades. But he doesn’t forget for a minute about his native Kislovodsk. He has this Kislovodsk in every word. Me: “Oh, Misha, how similar it is here to Karlovy Vary!” “They are all similar,” agrees Misha, “Baden-Baden, Karlovy Vary and Kislovodsk.” Misha to me: “Have you been to Montreux?” Me: “I wasn’t. And how was it?” Misha: “Montreux is very unique. It reminded me a lot of Baden-Baden, and through it Kislovodsk.” Me: “Misha, what delicious cakes!” Misha (condescendingly): “Of course, this is Turgenev’s favorite confectionery. But come to Kislovodsk, there is a confectionery opposite the Rossiya cinema, that’s where the eclairs are!” And so on. At the same time, Misha is not at all eager to return to Russia. He didn’t really like all this Crimean-nashi crap anyway, but now New Year. “I looked,” he says, “your New Year's show. There were huge meaty women there. They had black shiny dresses. And many other terrible things. After all this, I felt sorry for those who live there."
Now another patriot. Nikolay Rastorguev. He also lives in Baden-Baden. By the way, Misha’s friend is next door to Nikolai. He is not the only one adjacent to it. A couple of years ago, Igor Matvienko mentioned in an interview that Nikolai settled in Baden-Baden next to him, and they really like to have lunch together right in the park.
And here's what's interesting. Misha in Baden-Baden talks about Kislovodsk. And when he comes to Russia for work, he is not at all embarrassed to talk about Baden-Baden there. But when Nikolai Rastorguev arrives in Russia, you would never guess that he ever left it. In his interviews, he firstly says that Crimea is, of course, “ours”. He also says that " last years We have more and more reasons to be proud of our country, which has risen from its knees." Therefore, Nikolai tries to sing songs "with a patriotic intensity." "We live in Russia - a huge state that simply must be strong. Otherwise, they will simply tear us apart,” declares Nikolai Rastorguev, who actually lives not in Russia at all, or not only in it. But he is silent about this. And in his songs he sings about the Race from the Volga to the Yenisei, and never sings about Baden-Baden. And he also sings:
“We will stand until the end, for you, Motherland!
We will sing, we will walk, for you - Motherland!
And for the country three times “Hurray!” for the Motherland."
And he does all this from Germany: he stands, and sings, and walks, and shouts “hurray” - everything is from there. Misha and Nikolai are two patriots, but they are so different. Misha remains faithful to his Kislovodsk, but at the same time believes that Baden-Baden (living in it) saves him from modern Russia. Nikolai, on the contrary, believes that it is Russia that needs to be saved from all external enemies, which, logically, includes the state on whose territory Baden-Baden is located. But at the same time, he lives there - both for his health, which still greatly failed him, and, apparently, for pleasure, and not with the goal of keeping an eye on the enemy from the inside, so that he does not attack and tear apart his homeland.
