Priorities, you know. Some PAW alternates from before the game: http://mogool.com/PAW2008/alternates/?pic=47 http://mogool.com/PAW2008/alternates/?pic=48 http://mogool.com/PAW2008/alternates/?pic=49 After the game I met this dude in a bar and immediately knew he's gonna be PAW#25: http://mogool.com/PAW2008/?pic=25 He's "The Human Jukebox" and his concept is quite funny. He offers a list with songs from the past 35 years, from Black Sabbaths "War pigs" over to Adriano Celentano's "Azzuro" to Amy Winehouse's "Rehab" and much more. You select a song and tell it to him - he writes it down on a sheet of paper in front of him (yeah this guy is quite analog). Then you insert a coin into his piggy bank - see picture http://mogool.com/PAW2008/alternates/?pic=50 - and he sings. And not that bad, by the way. Wildly over the usual Karaoke level. His price politics is also funny. While all pop/rock songs cost 2 francs, he wants 5 francs for national anthems and Pavarotti's "Torna a suriento". Germany's win yesterday was a good deal for him as their anthem was asked and asked again... Comments welcome as always. Didier
