Roxette scheduled to perform live in 2005?
Written by roxeteer on January 26, 2004 to Roxette.
OSLO (UPDATED) - According to a report in today’s edition of the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten, Roxette might be one of the headline acts performing live during a festival in Oslo in June 2005.
Norway is marking the 100th anniversary of their independence from Sweden on June 7, 2005, and the celebration will culminate in an 11-day long culture festival.
The organizers of “Norge 2005” (Norway 2005) are making plans to have both Roxette and the Norwegian band a-ha appear that day on the outdoor stage that will be constructed in front of Rådhuset, a major governmental building in the center of Oslo.

Wowww I still can’t snap out of the amazement! well I’m sure Per and Marie will deliver a good performance for that date...it must be quite important to get Roxette booked up for that show which I’m sure will be sort of a comeback...a new album? I doubt it since Marie is working on her solo project and she needs time to rest but maybe a new single but just the fact that Roxette is back in stage is good enough...anyone willing to give me lodging in Oslo? pleaseeeee I will clean, bathe you, anything LOL! I never cease to surprise myself!
I hope that some Internet company transmits the concert.

Somebody needs to verify this NOW (with D&D, or better yet since they’ll just lie to us and then it will happen - see “The Ballad Hits” and “The Pop Hits” - the concert promoters, it’s too good to be true!
I really doubt Per and Marie would agree to do this if they didn’t expect to be promoting some Roxette project or other... (getting ahead of myself with excitement!)... let’s just hope this is true!!

It’s a newspaper people... y’know those things that print complete poop.
Wait until official news before getting out the passports and party balloons.

Oh that would be so great! But somehow I can’t imagine Marie and Per to sign for a concert 1,5 years in the future right now... We’ll see. :-)

Hi everyone! There’s definitely Someone above Who makes my dreams come true! I’ve always dreamt of Roxette & A-HA - my favourite bands - performing on one stage!Of course, we can’t say for sure that it will by all means be like this, but... let us believe!
