Silly Emma Shah. Didn’t someone tell her that singing in Hebrew could warrant harrassment by psychotic clerics?

Keith Emerson and Greg Lake abruptly call off concert Thursday night at Lakewood Civic Auditorium

admin — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 20:39:51 +0000

Can these two ever behave? Fans can’t even enjoy a damned show without these two clowns fighting over nothing and ruining a concert out of sheer ego. It’s no wonder Emerson, Lake & Palmer imploded. No arena could house such pretentious egos.

A Norwegian singer and violinist of Belarusian descent pulled off the victory at this year’s Eurovision Contest. It’s usually laced with dreadful competitors singing twee songs, but this year’s winner, Alexander Rybak, actually has a bit of talent. Next year’s Eurovision will be held in Oslo thanks to the Rybak win.

Here’s a clip from the BBC:

Lucky buggers. You get to see a show I’d kill to see! YMO will be part of the Meltdown Festival, hosted by Massive Attack, a wonderful band in their own right. The article is here, but be warned that it’s in Japanese. Use Babelfish to get an idea of what’s going on.
