as long as he's TAPPING HIS FOOT it'll all be ok

I'm going! :D Well, to a few of the club gigs anyway (festival passes cost an arm and a leg)

god bless guitarists in big capes.

they had a massive singalong/playalong/jam with 30 people on stage.

I played a solo on the recorder! :D

please?

We'll do it for free!

are, as far as I am aware, from Oslo.

surely "single of the year".

Cut my cake into pieces, this is my raspberry tort...

the piss have they stuck an ø into their name? If possible, that just makes their name even more ridiculous. It's like Smirnoff Nørsk, which had the ø in it to make it look more scandinavian (it didn't work - Norsk is a word, Nørsk isn't).

Also, they're shit.

are ACE! They sing in French and scream every now and then.

and I'm not even british!

"Eeeenglaaaand, real ale, chips and beer. Trackies stuffed in socks, too dim to rhyme. ENGLAAAAAAND." The lyrics need a slight reworking, but as for melody, just get drunk and scream it out whilst surrounded by people who shave their heads and think that rugby shirts actually constitute something stylish to wear.

on April 1st in Oslo. No microphones or anything, the guy just shouted "Hi, we're Red Sparowes" before the proceeded to make GROWN METALLERS CRY.

fucking awesome.

for Oslo, really. There's an explosively good local scene here (at times). The hip, happening acts also stop here and play everything from a 200 capacity venue to the 4000 capacity arena. I once saw Sigur Ros and a small orchestra cram themselves onto a stage the size of a dining room table in the student union thing.

There's also a festival every year that has some rather ace acts. This year there's...err... Beck and Morrissey headlining, and they're the worst acts announced so far.

Yeah, I'll send you some samples if you want.

but they're still utter cack. :-/ I fear for music.

hot like herpes

as a five times Roskilde-goer, i proclaim it the best festival ever. 3 quid for a crate of beer! Not good beer, but beer nonetheless.

this is the most hilarious comment ever.

really quite ace, Dan, well done! :D
