Nkosi Sikele...

Times like this...lol don't you just wish you were in America? Soooo road trip anyone? (And please don't gimme crap comments about music and concerts and their direct relationship with your senses of Halaal and Haraam and all that shit again.People(especially anonymous ones) with blinkers WILL BE SHOT.Anyone with the slightest music knowledge and pop culture and loooooads of alternative culture savvy will realise just what a big deal this is. A line up of what is arguably the biggest music names of the last decade or more.)

Let us weep for being stationed at the bottom of Africa. A small mercy is that at least I'm not in Cape Town...which really is the bottom of the pile :P


*Waits for the floodgate of the Storming Capetonians to start*
The Gauteng Province Fundamentalist
rah*

PS just so that you all know (before the barrage starts) I'm very proudly South African. Just would be nice to imagine summing like this could happen here. This is the honeymoon of the marriage of some of the greatest music ever.

South Africa doesn't need those northen hemisphere poseurs. It has the natural music of its native wildlife, not to mention the steady beat of the human bongo drums. In the Congo, the sound of gorillas farting is the only music we need.

Cobain :): darling, dearest you KILL me hahahaha. Yeah sure no problem, I'll be ready and waiting, I'll wait on this side of the hemisphere that's closest to yours.

k-man: agreed. Personally think it needs a bit of Manson, NiN, Live, Pumpkins, and the dearly departed Nirvana,hmmm and Pearl Jam.

Gorilla Bananas: Welcome to Blaaaaahnia, hope you enjoy your stay. Congo eh? So do u remix gorillas farting with the sound of bursting pustules from those nasssssty hemorrhagic and other jungle fevers you guys get? :P Kidding! African Music does rock.

saaleha + priya: too tr00

Infinium: lol...nm it's higher grade. Though there are some trance acts and electronic "music" bits lined up. VNV Nation + Paul Van Dyk for instance.

Muhammad: LOL...RATM RAWWWWWWWWWWKS big time. You can get a lift with Cobain and I :)

Love your blog, keep it up. You should write a book of chronicles, you're entertaining, witty, intelligent and write well. It'll be an instant bestseller:)

I think Greendays matured. And they're among the few keeping it real. Besides .. the content isn't popalicious blahnian crap. Like Lupe Fiasco and System of A Down .. I can appreciate what they're saying with their music.
