For the longest time I thought this was going to be some kind of 2girl1cup thing and have been afraid to look.
I'm not sure it's better but it's less atrocious on both eyes and ears.

Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.

It grows on me. I shall Gangnam Gallop all over town today! 
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Agreed. I've got more vid of a girl group that performed before Psy. More skin, if not more boobs. Like Tero said, Psy is working on some pretty respectable moobs there. Anyway, I'll see about editing and uploading some of the girls' stuff. Mind you, I was shooting from the length of a soccer field. The stage was set up by one net and I was just behind the other. Almost full zoom. Makes it very shaky.HomerJay wrote:Needs moar boobs.FBM wrote:http://www.flickr.com/photos/hapkido199 ... hotostreamFBM wrote:I just got back from the Psy concert. It was pretty good, but they had way too many acts before him. Two different magicians doing practically indistinguishable magic tricks.Anyway, I learned that he's not a one-trick pony. He did other songs that weren't so...K-poppy...and the crowd knew and sung along with them. Got some vids, but not sure how good they are yet. Got a 9 a.m. class, so no time to check them out now. It's almost 1:30 a.m. here.

Re: Why is Gangnam Style so popular in the West?
Damned if I know. Like everybody else, I ignored pretty much everything except Psy. I did take some video of them, but it'd be pretty disappointing compared to what you could get on YouTube. I'll try to find out who it was and post a link to something professionally done.Svartalf wrote:What group is it?

Dood. I wasted a full minute trying to find out who that group was. The only news about that night is about Psy and Gangnam Style. Nobody seems to give a shite about anything else that happened. And I want my minute back!
