Would you Abba and Eve it: museum for pop band to open in Sweden

A museum dedicated to Swedish pop sensations or yesteryear Abba is due to open in Stockholm in 2008.

The museum, the brainchild of one Ulf Westman and his wife Ewa, will display all manner of Abba-releated stuff, from handwritten lyrics to outfits to instruments to hair and skin samples. Well, maybe not hair and skin samples.

Westman was inspired following a visit to Liverpool's museum dedicated to everything Beatles-y. Stockholm's mayor, Kristina Axen Olin, has commented:

"We are convinced that this is important both for Stockholm citizens and for marketing the city."

The band members themselves, though, required a little persuasion; a statement from them now reads, "It is nice someone feels compelled to take on our musical history." Blunt, that...

Oh God, imagine a museum dedicated to Blunt...

i will not be visiting this museum because

i hate Abba.

Was the Aardman Studios fire accidental

Or will we see another blazing inferno sometime soon?

snog my face

Anyone else find ABBA quite creepy? Bet everyone knows this but the name abba is made out of their first names- Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny and Anni-Frid. Anyways creepy motherfuckers.

Like Agnetha was stalked for years by this weirdo then she started seeing him for like two years. This bloke was like some bloke was fat weird and wore tracksuit bottoms and wipped his arse on a tissue and tried to rub it on a camera lens in the documentary.

'love music fuck baby'

i thought we'd IP banned jonathan king?

This

Fills me with dread.
