Please note: I do not know what the organizers mean, when they say a-ha will hold a mini concert... 2-3 songs or more ?

Takk skal du ha Mortyman. Didn't Morten perform a few songs at the same event last year?

[Mortyman]

Yes he did. But I think it was only one song:

Morten Harket - We'll Never Speak Again

Hei

Takk. Thanks. Mortyman for the new info. That is great, kjempebra.

Yes. It was very great with Morten last year with We'll Never Speak Again.

Yes. Kjempebra with Morten last year. Both the soundcheck and the performance at the show.

Hopefully it is some more songs now this year, but it was very great to be there last year with Morten there and I would of course like very much to be there this year,summer aswell, if I can be very lucky to do that.

Mortyman, it seems your link doesn't work

[Sandra]

Thanks Mortyman!
Interesting to see that Aqua will be there too...

[valerie]

It will remind Morten some good memories.. No I'm joking;

[Mortyman]

Mortyman, it seems your link doesn't work

The links works. Both of them...

Its my only chance to go to Oslo (this year) so I booked my flights and hotel this afternoon. I'll also buy some copies of the album (if I can find them) in Platekompaniet. Looking forward not just to a-ha but to aqua, bigbang and maybe Alexander Rybak. Who are Fuentes/Lind/Nilsen/Holm? What time will the concert start and finish?

[tina]

This is Fuentes/Lind/Holm and Nilsen --they made the 'Hallelujah' cd a few years ago and toured with it.A great combination of singers imo.
Here's one of the songs they cover

aqua have a new single out... i am looking forward to lene's hair regardless of the history.

[Letter from Egypt]

Thanks for the information Tina. I didn't recognise the names but I have the Hallelujah cd and really should listen to it more than I have.

This is more a happening than a concert really. Don't be too dissapointed if they use playback for this one. That's the norm for this show.
