They don't comment, why should I.

Odd. But seems to be lots of fun

That was different. Things like this make me feel old.

It was a huge fun. 99% of the singers had nothing to do with anything punk or anarchist whatsoever. They were just choir singers who liked the idea and dressed up for the event. But in the recent history (1980ies) that kind of movements played quite a role in the ...umm.. politics here. It was sort of a protest movement. Against the powers then, so for anything we actually valued. So in some twisted way they were positive heroes of that time.
As about the songs they were singing on this festival, some were real punk hits, some just carried the idea in the lyrics, not in the music itself. But altogether is was a great event. I hope there will be a 3rd one as well.

my trusted copy of the "Xenophobe's guide to Estonians" does not really prepare me for this

it looks good

the comments

good book by the way

In fact I have xenophobe's guide to Dutch and Danes as well. In eekspeak though.

Those are good books as well. Though I admit - the Undutchables is better.

makes you wonder what they say about us, Pierce?

Indeed. Intrigued even. And a bit frightened too

But since I am half danish, half german and half polish I can always take the SEP solution*


*SEP = Somebody Else's Problem for all you ers and 's out there

So there's 1,5 of here. And I should get me xenophobe's guide to germans and polacks as well.

Nah, stick to the Dutch and Danish. If you bring them all I won't have any excuses

Do you need any?

naaahh .. I don't think Pierce ever needed excuses .. well .. maybe once or twice

Us pirates never *need* excuses - as such. But sometimes excuses leave a better impression. That can come in handy at times

never seek excuses for an excuse

oops, about that

that's ok have an there's more important things to consider
