Denmark - Sweden: the Thread

[Monk]

It's hilarious. Maybe the players were inspired by the alternative version of the Danish national anthem as it was published in Ekstra Bladet the day prior to the match.

Der er et yndigt land
som ligger tæt på Sverige
Vi deler samme vand
Vi deler samme vand
Edberg, Abba, Vol-vo
Det hedder gammelt venskab
Det kræver blot 2 - 2
Det kræver blot 2 - 2

We must demand a question should be added about which country is home to the best festival in Scandinavia.

You don't have to choose between us, Norway. You could buy us both if you wanted to.

[Pekka]

Best Festival? Man.. we have some good ones too. Roskilde might be the best though.

Sweden Rock Festival

I read that Kraftwerk will play at Arvika next month, so...

They had a Europe concert, that's too cool. But the 80's gotta end sometime, and what will Sweden Rock Festival do by then?

Winston, you traitor

Did you, by the way, see Kraftwerk out on Frederiksberg (was it) when they toured here? I wanted to go, but I found ticket prices a wee bit too outrageous.

This might not have anything to do with football, but I assume the Scandinavians get to call the shots in the Denmark-Sweden thread.

Norway, obviously. Risør Wooden Boat Festival

Roskilde is a good second though.

Arvika? Kraftwerk? Really? Maybe I should go there. It's probably sold out... And probably 90% Norwegians.

Europe is timeless, man

Ah shut up everybody until you get the answer right

Indeed, I did go see them in KB-Hallen in February, in no small part thanks to you Monk. If you hadn't called attention to it, I never would have noticed. Thanks mucho.

I'm not a seasoned concert-goer by any means, but it was a brilliant experience for me, they played a wide range of sets and the sound was awesome. The concert lasted nearly 2½ hours, which was much more than I'd expected. The tickets were DKK 300, but it was well worth it to me.

There were a lot of Swedes there too on the second night when I went.

Tuborg too..

We would be huge in soccer if we united.. We wouldn't help you much though.. maybe like one guy in the team or so.. in hockey, we'd be a force!!!!! Winter sports.. oh yeah.. we could dominate in many areas totally. Fusion with Ericsson and Nokia.. dominate all that.. I could see that happening.

Pekka, com'on, you would want and Danes or Norwegians in a Hockey team as little as you would want Finns in a football team! Cross-country skiing - well, Danes can't ski at all and Finns can't ski without cheating, so they are out. Ericsson and Nokia? Something like Stora and Enso then? Or Nordea. Yeah, maybe.

Sweden Rock Festival is within bicycle distance
My wife did not let me go the two last years
