Move over, Ms L!

Hi all, wondering why you are looking at this jumbled up page? This is due to the fact that Facebook didn't like our url since it starts with wog, so we have been forced to move the blog. This was some time ago, and we have placed a script which would automatically send you to our new location. Obviously, this hasn't worked for all of you, since we have just finished moderating some of your comments which appeared on this site recently, and not on our new (and improved!) site. So what we're saying is head on over to our new site, and update your bookmarks!

Paul McCartney Concert # 28

Poster for Norway, rare 1st edition.
Tonight Paul McCartney is playing a concert in Norway again. It has been 11 years since he last played here, just as it had been 11 years between that and the previous Norway concert as well. Of course, the longest we had to wait was the 17 years between his first (Wings 1972) and second concert in Norway. So you'll understand, to see Paul McCartney in between, one has to travel. This will be the 27th time I'm attending his concerts. Here's the list:

1. London, England, Live Aid, Wembley Stadium 1985
2. Drammen, Norway, Drammenshallen World tour 1989
