Kings of leon said to come to SA

[Garson007]

Jesus. I have to go see Roxette. I just have to. D: Also, we pay R100 less than those JHB guys to go see them. :D

[Die Jason]

Go get your tickets man, small venue!

Rammstein show (CT) had 150 tickets left yesterday, so should be sold out by now.

As for Roxette - 80s/90s pop rock, who can resist some nostalgia?

And back to topic:

Strangely I only know 1 Kings of Leon song (take a guess :P), so not really worth me getting a ticket.

Sex on fire?

[Die Jason]

Yeah, that one ;)

Been neglecting music for the last few years, don't know who is singing what anymore. At least I know what Roxette performs :D

[David Morrison]

Here is my favourite Kings of Leon song:

I can't wait for their arrival!

[nukehead]

So, last night I was convinced by a friend that Kings of Leon are awesome live. She also said that they are known to play their old stuff which actually makes me so much more excited for this.

Got general standing tickets earlier this morning, Golden Circle tickets were insta-sold-out it seems, or at least that was the case for Cape Town. Excited!

[Chevron]

Got as well this morning. Will be my first concert ever.

[Jaded Star]

So i stood in line with about 7 people in front of me for my tickets. 45 minutes later i'm second from the front. Another 15 minutes later I'm in front trying for golden circle alas sold out <Frack> so i go for standing behind golden circle and about 15 minutes of server busy i get my tickets. <walking away smiling looking at the long long long row of people waiting for ticket :D showing off my tickets to the envious people in line> @Chevron my first one too and it just happens to be the most awesome band ever!!!! Oh P.S i hope you know how to get there we don't

Good thing that I have Global Positioning Satellite device. :P

[Jaded Star]

Thats why we friend, HAHA kidding. I really can't wait uber excited! Anyone else on the forum going to the JHB show?

[HEIDI CAPE TOWN]

Roxette super Swedes! all those people trashing Roxette, think again. The band has sold over 60 000 000 records world wide !!!!! If that is not a successful rock band then I don't know what is. The reason why they've stopped touring in 2002 was because Marie Fredriksson was diagnosed with a brain tumor. She beat the cancer and they are back on tour next year. Come on if that is not pure magic then please get a life !
Will see both concerts in Cape Town 2011 - yeah!

[Azimuth]

Did you register here just to post that?

[Die Jason]

I'm thinking that someone should have started a Roxette thread a few weeks ago.

Kings of Leon getting little love in their own thread.

[echo]

And what the hell is up with your nick? I thought Heidi was suppose to be in the Alps? Table Mountain is not the Alps, lady.

[nukehead]

We need to get this thread back on track... speaking of tracks



/bad puns

That is the track that got me into them and is still one of my favourites. Then lately I have fallen in love with this one:



Absolutely love the ebb and flow of that track. Their albums are so diverse yet so distinctly them.

It's official, I am excited that I got me my tickets. ;D

I used to like Kings of Leon... until I heard Empire of the Sun and realized how dead-pan mediocre Kings are. They aren't even similar but what I once thought was raw emotion became pretentious whining after the transcendent, multi-faceted bliss that is Empire of the Sun.

Uhhhh so you only like a band if there isn't another band you like? If thats the case i only like Kings Of Leon.

[Desmond]

Kings of Leon are frigging awesome!!!!!

NAAAAAAAAAAAT!

No seriously, I don't understand all the hype. Why are they so popular? I don't get that buzz when I hear their music. Am I missing something?

You sure it's not something as simple as their music not appealing to your tastes? :P

[Chippit]

What he's clearly trying to say, Kharrak, is that Nickelback is objectively the best band.
