Can't.. stop.. saving.. pictures.. Thank you everyone!



Ooh, thank you so much! Where are these from? I know they are from Ruisrock but what magazine. They are scans, right? I especially love the second one.

Yes they are both scans from Finnish newspaper articles that I have uploaded onto my other computer at home! I can't remember the names of the newpapers, they're not recent articles or anything, but I'll post the whole articles tomorrow evening, if you're interested?!? :wink:


Here's an article from last years august issue of 7 päivää in the mean time....

^^What is that article about?:eyebrow: By the way, I'm 25% Finnish :D :reject:

I had feeling someone might ask! :wink: Well, each year in Finland is a held a national tango singing contest and winners of the contest (one man and one woman) are crowned Tango King and Queen. And part of last years Tango Queens price was a holiday in the south of France, and one night our Tango Queen Kati went to fancy restaurant and some time during the meal Bono walks in and the magazines reporter following Kati's every move, introduces Kati to Bono and he says (the caption in the red square) "So you're a Finnish tango singer?" And the caption in the yellow star just says 'Kati froze with joy' at meeting Bono obviously!! :D

So you're 25% Finnish eh?!? Does that mean one of your grandparents is Finnish? :hmm:

Aww!!! That is such a sweet story!:cute: I want to be Bono's Tango Queen:shifty: And yes, my Grandpa on my mother's side of the family was 100% Finnish. He spoke the language, read the books, and listened to the music, but I wasn't around him much, so I never picked anything up.:( I'm also 25% Norwegian on my mother's side from her mother, and then I'm 50% Hungarian on my father's side because both of his parents are 100% Hungarian.

hcbiggs2002, thank you sooo much! You rock. I love the second article. :)

edit: Oh yeah, forgot. Have you seen the Ruisrock pictures that were in IRC-Galleria? Someone had a few pictures there (well I don't know if she or he still has them there because I'm not a member anymore). :p

I was just going to post those color pictures! Expect one of them which I'm going to save now. :D Thank you!
 
Yeah I had a feeling you might be talking about those pics! :wink: It's a small but loyal community of U2 fans here. Are you a member of U2Finland? They're holding a get together in Vuosaari this saturday. :wink:

Heh. Bono, you coconut. Stop having girls pick you up! :lmao:

One of these days, some girl is gonna carry him quite away.

We're watching you Bonosapien researchers, so don't even think about it! :tsk: :evil:

Heh. People are right about one thing, Ali would be like cut the nonsense if he did it to her, but I doubt she gives a rat's ass about him doing it to someone else.
