Jojo Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Not sure if this has been mentioned in any other threads but.. I know they were not everyone's cup o tea, but I thought the band that played before the GP were excellent.. does anybody know their name? Would love to get a CD of their music.

Jojo Posted August 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 Abba? lol, I said excellent band, so can't have been Abba.. the best band to come out of Sweden lately is the Hives, but it was not them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 (edited) Abba can't be that bad the Swedish Team knew all the words and the dances at Poole especially dancing queen & winner takes it all Edited August 23, 2004 by shazzybird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanne Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 I must be getting old I thought they were just a load of noise. The band outside the stadium were better singing Status Quo, Bruce Springteen songs etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addy Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 You have a good time then Jo ? (Apols. if I've missed your appropriate post) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo Posted August 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 You have a good time then Jo ? (Apols. if I've missed your appropriate post) Funny you should say that Joanne, for some Swedes sat in front of us with their 'QUO' belts on, were claiming that Rick Parfitt (not sure how to spell) was actually at the meeting! Addy, yes we had a great time.. for us it is not just about the speedway match, but having a totally fun weekend away. Nicki, Hans and Peter Ljung were on our plane, the Gothia Towers Hotel was just awesome, the roller coaster etc in the fairground was hilarious, the friendly Swedes in the bars and resturants helped, the weather stayed kind to us, and the speedway itself was enjoyable. All in all, a great weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joanne Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 You have a good time then Jo ? (Apols. if I've missed your appropriate post) I did, thanks Addy. You'll have to see the Swedish GP thread. Gave the fairground a miss after the Pleasure Beach in Blackpool Walked down to that area last night, the Gothia Towers looked really nice, JoJo.
