    We really thought they'd do Sweden this time.. don't understand why you're slighted again.
    It's not like the band didn't notice the swede contingent last year!

    ok, start the campaign like the poles, and maybe they'll be back next year ;):D

    I'm a little pissed off about that as well. I can't understand that they just ignore Sweden, it's a lovely little country. However I'm going to London and Copenhagen, and I saw them three times last year in Sydney, so I shouldn't complain. Would be sweet with a show in Stockholm though!

    SORRY!=). Didn´t mean that in a bad way, did meet a a guy from finland during an Evan dando gig a couple of years ago and he said that you get like 50% of the band that we get, and Pearl jam didn´t play Finland in 2000 so I just assumed you didn´t get so many.
    I´m really really really sorry;).

    tell me about it, they were right behind us in Prague :)...but I'm all for deep viking voices personally :D

    I guess it's kinda "either Sweden or Denmark, they're so close to each other anyway". And now it just was Denmarks turn. I just hope they'd take etc. "either Finland or Estonia" to their tour-program also. As mentioned, it's been already 14 years since they've been here (and didn't catch them then either, neither did in Sthlm 2000 even though i already had ticktets).

    Don't even know if they've ever been to Est though. So what am i complaining. Plus this time, i got the tickets, and for sure am going!! :)

    if it were my band i'd play Sweden... you guys have brilliant porn and Swedish women are breathtaking
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    lol. it's ok. I wasn't really as mad as one might think from my post. just a bit surprised.

    but, like said, we do get bands. maybe not exactly as much as some other countries but we're definitely on the map. ;)

    Beavis: No, Eddie Vedder makes faces like this guy.
    Butt-head: I heard these guys, like, came first and Pearl Jam ripped them off.
    Beavis: No, Pearl Jam came first.

    I'll buy the guys beer if they come to Stockholm, so they wount whine about expensive beer. Anyway, it's still cheaper in Sweden than it is in Norway. But don't the guys seem more like wine-people?
