It will be fantastic..... or maybe not. Will probably draw the same kind of crowd as Metallica and Tool a few weeks ago.

Quote:

The Irish boy band Westlife will give their first live performance in Korea at Jamsil Indoor Stadium, southeastern Seoul, on Sept. 6.
The long-awaited concert was originally scheduled for December 2003 but was canceled at the last moment due to discord between the band and the organizer. The upcoming concert is a part of their tour titled "Face to Face Asian Tour," which began in April. All of their concerts have been sold out.

I'd rather trim my toenails with an angry Tiger shark.

My friends back home thought it was really funny when I told them that Koreans think that Westlife is one of the biggest bands in the world ... those who even knew who Westlife are.

They are one of the biggest in terms of UK chart success. More UK number ones than any other artist or band in UK chart history. 13 actually.

But one must remember that, after the 80's, you could get a UK number one with as little as 30,000 CD singles sold. In the 60's and 70's you needed to sell around a million 45's to get to number one.

I only know one of their songs, and only if I hear it. I can't think of how it goes on my own. Some students played it on my computer one time, that's the only time I have heard them.

I am with Eamo, minus the tiger shark. My approach to avoid the Westlife concert will be to experiment with new types of toilet paper. I am thinking that I will catnap my school owner's cat, and dognap my neighbor's mutt. From there I will eat a copious quanity of gimchee and raw garlic cloves along with lots of cheap American beer. Afterwords when I have to use the facilities I will grasp the animal by the tail, and by the back of the head and test it out to see what makes better toilet paper, a cat, or a dog.


I need to identify some government funding for this project.



What was this thread about again? The cheap american beer is catching up with me.

Radiohead may suck but at least they're more original than your posts regarding Radiohead. We get it already, you don't like Radiohead. Enough said.

Seriously, man, consider asking Santa for a new line as a Christmas gift this year.

Jeepers...how about after a Kenny G concert?

Running down the street screaming "Quadrophenia!!!!!" then shagging each other senseless?

Did Michael Bolton put them into a post-coital bliss?

How many Richard Clayderman babies have there been?
