But Diana quits her studies and goes home to Magadan. A new friend promises to visit her and soon comes to visit. It is not known exactly when the love story of Arbenina and Surganova began, but it is generally accepted that it was at this time that not friendly relations arise between them at all.
For almost a year, the girls have been successfully touring the Far East, giving concerts in clubs and visiting apartment houses. Their performances are a great success - at that time, women in rock and roll could be counted on the fingers of one hand. Plus, it's a duet! And quite mysterious. If Svetlana never hid her orientation and actively participated in all actions, protesting against the infringement of the rights of sexual minorities, then Diana did not make any statements about this. The girls come up with a name for their group ("Night Snipers") and return to St. Petersburg.
Success, fame and lots of music
In the cultural capital, they continue to perform at various venues, but in addition to this, they are simultaneously writing their first album in the studio. "A drop of tar" instantly pulled them out of the abyss of obscurity. Songs from the album hit the radio, and the country learned about the existence of the group.

Fans rejoice - these are not staged kisses and hugs of young girls under the direction of Ivan Shapovalov. Two grown women would not invent such an image for themselves.
Gap
In 2002, the group's fans came to the next concert, where they were confronted with the fact that Surganova is no longer a member of the group, and now this is Diana's solo project. The indignation of the public led to the fact that the hall began to chant the name of the violinist. Arbenina reacted calmly to this and asked everyone who expressed their dissatisfaction to leave. She did not expand on the reasons for the breakup, limiting herself to the fact that it was simply time for each of them to go their own way. The fans could not believe that the love story of Surganova and Arbenina was over.
Scandals, intrigues, investigations
