I would like to compliment you on your outstanding Zagreb slideshow video! As always, your efforts at recording Cohenite events are superb. And I love the song selections which really enhance the slideshow. (More info on the singers, please).

Well Done!

Thank you Wybe, for the music info. I was not aware our very own Mod Henning is so talented. And I understand from earlier posts, he is quite the ladies man and much in demand. I am looking forward to meeting this dynamo in Krakow.

Another question. In your collection of Zagreb photos, is there a pic of the always entertaining to read Liverpoolken?

Arlene,
Here's a picture of Ken standing in front of a mirror, I presume...

Speaking of the devil: Ken always inquires me about my beloved children and how they are doing in terms of market price... Ken, I can happily let you know that the eldest is finally of the market and sold to a (not so young) couple from Finland because they had the feeling he was raised with the same musical background as they prefer. Because postage for him would be too expensive, both parties have agreed to hand the child over during some sort of a mutual trip to Poland in the near future... But the second one is still for sale and prices are negotiable. If necessairy, I can also put him up for rent, especially the first half of August 2010 seems like a good time for this. Anyway, because the Finnish couple are willing to pay in advance, I have decided to go to Krakow with the money so I'm sure we'll meet there again!

Since I'm sort of invading this topic, I must admit I've been following the Zagreb meetup closely and wished I was there too, but the deal with the Finnish couple wasn't completely done yet and I had to wait for the cash... Anyway: big hughs to everyone!!!

Another thing: I noticed Jarkko is finally wearing a hat/cap and it suits him well!

All the best,
Maarten

Which one is Ken?

Hey, Maarten. I really enjoyed your post. You're pretty entertaining yourself.

Speaking of Krakow: I have made no bookings of any kind and will not do so until more concert cities are announced. International cross border airlines are not accommodating as some of the Zagreb concert members found out the hard way. I recently renewed my Canadian passport and I am ready to boogie.

That can't be Ken, it must be his double!
