Hej allihopa :D

(swedish for hello everybody)

Great pics :lol: we still have these swedish dancebands around,
alot of them. But, non of them reach up to this girl, the tuffest
swede ever, and my hero as a kid :lol: I mean, she lives
alone and she have her own monkey, in addition to that her
dad is a pirate. Case closed! cant beat that :lol:

And here is Sven-Ingvars, one of many, many dancebands :)

Image

and here is Sten & Stanley

Image

I`ve seen most of these guys play several times... :oops:
wow, thats hard to admitt :lol: i should point out i was not
there to watch, they just happend to be playing at places i
were at, i swear!! :lol:

Funny thing about the bandnames, almost all of them are named after
the guy who started the band. For example, Sven Ingvars was started
by a guy named Sven Ingvar, the S is just put on the end to point out
that its his band sort of. Same with Tommy Ferms, some guy named
Tommy Ferm started it. I especially like the bandname "Tre Blå & en Gul"
that theres a pic of further up, that means "Three Blue & one Yellow"
and when you look at the pic, its kinda obvious isn`t it.. :lol:

Some of my favourite prog bands are from sewden. :o
Black Bonzo, Anekdoten and Beardfish. Some other ok bands are Landberk, Graveyard and Witchcraft but they don't sing in english too well.
