Suddenly, after being solicited to us for weeks, within days of R.E.M. leaving the country, no more of their music is being played by mainstream radio. How sad. I hope the DJs and their producers, as well as the concert promoters feel very shameful at their blatant attempts to exploit the public.
Does the SABC really think we’re that stupid?
Well, here it is, eventually, the link to my (prohibited) photos of R.E.M.’s concert in Johannesburg on 10 March 2005.
There’s actually a dodgy video clip or four in that collection too.
(I eventually ran out of memory on my camera).
Enjoy!
What a phenomenal story! A uniquely talented artist going by the name “Banksy” walked into the four largest museums in New York City and proceeded to exhibit his own works – simply a case of sticking them on the wall, really. Fantastic. Apparently two of the works have been removed, but the other two remain on display.
I strongly believe South African artists should consider this option – the levels of security should be far lower here than in the top New York galleries.
The photos are here. They are a must see.
Banksy’s work – at least the part I have browsed on his website – is eye-opening, thought provoking, and visually stimulating to say the least. It is a brilliant form of social commentary – I especially enjoy the graffiti pieces. Take a look and enjoy.
Great news!
I’m ecstatic to announce that I passed my LPIC Level 1 Certification and will be looking into Level 2 in the near future. More info about LPI is here.
You can verify my certification here. Just plug in my LPIID : LPI000076500 (a styling LPI number, isn’t it?) and my verification code: nke8af4ju3.
So it seems the days of seeing a “blue screen of death” at the airport may be over, however they have been lovingly replaced with a “low disk space warning”. See Now arriving… low disk space”. Looking closely the problem appears to stem from Arkansas, but at least it is timely. 🙂
