world cup fever
dear friends,
sorry for not being in touch for a while, but after out fun, but long US tour i took a little break from everything and did pretty much nothing else but watching the world cup 2006 and what can i tell you:
it's some of the most exciting football games (we don't call it soccer where i'm from...so don't even start) ever and especially seeing how well the German team is playing warms my heart and makes me happier than most things...my further predictions are that argentina, the netherlands, england and brasil will be doing really well leading up to a world cup winner Argentina (they better win, since i have a reasonable amount of euros on them...only germany winning would make me not care)...the great ted leo also posted his world cup predictions i saw the other day...check it out here:

other than that i've been listening to the new bouncing souls, idlewild, oasis and the usual intake of sir ryan adams and i just bought tickets to see him in july, so that should be a good excuse for a little binge...
i'm off to the pub now for a goodbye drink with my roomates and i see some of you fellow europeans for these dates...don't forget to come out and say hi!

Argentina will win for sure. Though I still have my hopes on the Netherlands :D

sweet gene...i'm sure there's still tickets at ticketmaster.com...come along to see him fall off the stage (or us falling on stage...one of the two)
Posted by: robertbsf at June 20, 2006 06:12 PM

Posted by: Gene at June 20, 2006 07:49 PM
isn't it great that we can be proud of our country and show some patriotism right now? you need to experience the world cup over here in ger ( we will win! )
Posted by: isa at June 21, 2006 04:56 AM
hell no! switzerland's gonna win!
Posted by: matt at June 21, 2006 09:42 AM
I agree... Argentinia will win the world cup I guess. But germany is good as well... maybe they'll play against Argentinia in the final game.
But Brasil is disappointing me on this World Cup! And England!
See ya on tour!

I'm American, but I'm in Ghana right now.
Today, the Ghanians beat the Americans (thank God). The city where I am went up in a wild celebration. People were dancing around yelling to me "America, world power, Super power, what happened to you?!"
It was beautiful.
Posted by: voltron at June 22, 2006 08:22 PM
Later Americans, hello Ghana!
Leave it up to the Africans to steal an upset. Still, I cheer for the Black Stars! Go Ghana! Welcome to the round of sixteen!
ohh you say they're up against Brazil? ohhh..... (go for the upset of the century!)
Posted by: marko at June 23, 2006 12:03 AM
The people here are confident that the Black Stars will beat Brazil 2-0.
Posted by: voltron at June 23, 2006 09:14 PM
It was beautiful.
Voltron, you're worse then the Dixie Chicks. You pinko traitor.

Hey guys, just saying thanks for the great show at the Well on Thursday night. And sorry Josh we couldn't find somewhere mega fun to go in Leeds for your birthday. I was mega drunk as it was and couldn't do much on Friday but had a lot of fun anyway.
Enjoy the rest of your trip and thanks again!
Regards,
Arnie

Completely not related to the post, you should watch this:
Posted by: Strong bad at June 26, 2006 11:37 AM
argantina look good for the cup this time, but got to admit germany are playing well and what about portugal as an outsider.
as for brazil, i dont fancy them they look a bit shabby, and ronaldo is so over weight at the moment (to slow)
as for englasnd ha! no chance, they just scraped past equador and were crap in the group games. (remember euro 2004) portugal will destroy england again !!!!
bring on the euro 2008 qualifiers, scotland to win over france and italy (emmm, ok prob not but i can dream)

Once upon a time long long ago boysetsfire used to write in this constantly.
They had great stories of the roads they traveled, people they met, and things they did.
Their fans had something to look forward to when visiting their page almost on a daily basis.
Alas, these days are gone.
FUCKERS.

yup

Now I don't think that Argentinia will win the world cup anymore. Germany will win the game! And if they really do... they'll win the world cup as well.
Did you see the games last week? Germany was the best team I guess...!
What about Brazil? What about Italy or France? Boring!
Posted by: Tanja at June 28, 2006 09:16 AM
paying homage to you, i watched many of the games this year. did it hurt when someone took your euros for the loss of argentina? ;)
