What's this "Daily Vengarox"?
rouven282 said on June 17, 2002 11:51:
Unfortunately I noticed the “Daily Vengarox” by accident today and it made me look like a question mark! Is it funny or what?
The idea of making a little parody of Roxette isn’t the worst, but this page is just ridiculous in my opinion.
Where’s the connection between Vengaboys and Roxette? These many spelling mistakes - were they made on purpose?
Some of these so-called jokes are really nasty, the only thing that makes a bit laugh is this section “Ask Marie”. LOL! But the rest just sucks.
Am I too stupid to get this kind of humour? Do I have no humour at all? Do you like it?

I really like this page (it makes me laugh a lot :), though some jokes are not very funny.. I still hope they’ll continue updating the page.

It ripped off the ’Fries with that’ idea.....but its funny......too many ppls take Roxette far too seriously in terms of not being able to laugh at them ;P Lighten up!! ;)

Oh yes, this is indeed a very funny site! I also like the Vengaboys, so maybe that helps me get more of the jokes. Anyway, good job on the site! I can’t visit it while at work though, because I might laugh out loud:)

Uh? Where’s the connection between Vengaboys and Roxette? Duh! uh uh uh uh!
In a press conference held in Stockhölm in 1999 Roxette announced it’s merger with The Vengaboys. The reason? Duh uh? Their lack of credibility and poor album sales forced them to merge with a very prestigious band in order to continue releasing material. Uh uh uh uh! Since Milli Vanilly were not available anymore, they chose The Vengaboys! Doih COOL!
Duh! After the merge, The Vengaboys influence was obvious: the dance oriented album “Have A Nice Day” was released including hits like “We used to be Stars” and “I wish I could Fly the Venga-Airways”. Duh! uh uh uh uh! Their next single will be “Some days you’re the pigeon (some days you’re the statue)” and will be featured in a new Greatest Hits CD. Duh! uh uh uh uh! Doih COOL!
Vengarox On! Duh uh!

well, rouven... ” Some of these so-called jokes are really nasty, the only thing that makes a bit laugh is this section “Ask Marie”. LOL! But the rest just sucks.

No. I don’t like it as well, I share your opinion, sorry daily-vengaroxers...... there are some very good jokes, but the most of them I don’t like.

@ VENGAROX
After reading your infantile statement, I’m a bit worried about you. What you said made no sense at all.
You might make fun of Per and Marie as artists and I agree that there are some funny things about them, e.g. sometimes it seems that Marie doesn’t know what’s going on with Roxette. I remember that she said shortly before the Room Service Tour that MATAH did extremely well in Germany, although it reached only #54 in the sales charts. And it’s probably also true that Per cares a lot about money.
But I think it’s getting dangerous when you start to make fun of them as persons, e.g. speculating about Per’s sexuality (there was something with the RS-video: If I was seen more in the video, more fans would speculate if I’m gay... there was something similar written on your website). I think this is really insulting and it’s Per matter how he moves etc. Another example is the pic of Marie’s parking lot. At first I laughed about it, too. But do you know what Marie thinks about her problems with driving a car. I don’t know if she has ever tried to get a driver’s licence. If she did and failed, you should pay more attention, because you don’t know if she could laugh about a pic like this, too. Maybe it’s embarrasing for her.
When you’re an artist, you’re part of the public and whatever you release - you’ll get criticisms, so write about Roxette whatever you want, but respect Per and Marie as the human beings they are.
No, I don’t expect that you understand what I’ve written or that I’ll get any serious respond. I don’t expect anything after reading this strange reply you’ve posted before.
Best wishes, R.

Maybe you’re kinda new to Roxette’s history in Internet....
There are a lot of really subtle jokes in that site... some of them smart.... some not so much... but it reflexes a lof of the reality of us and of Roxette...
If you didn’t get the jokes... is cos you weren’t into here enough....
pietROxette said on June 18, 2002 15:33:
Why can’t you take things as jokes? Roxette aren’t gods, they won’t get nasty if you make fun of them.
Ferdan said on June 18, 2002 15:38:
yeh.... they aren’t gods.... everyone saw per picking his nose :))
Vixzter said on June 18, 2002 16:21:
Like I said before.....some ppls need to really lighten up about Roxette, and stop taking themselves, Roxette and life so bloody seriously ;)
I’m pretty sure Per and Marie don’t really give a toss as to whats on that page, and I’m sure if they have even seen it that they’re big enough to see that its all a joke.
If you can’t laugh at yourself....who can you laugh at?? :P

The page is kind of weak, compared with THIS MASTERPIECE:
http://www.geocities.com/frieswiththat_99/main.html
That’s what I consider good Roxette parody, I am still laughing my head off :) Dimmans diary, mmm :)
Diny said on October 2, 2002 21:58:
I don’t like it at all!! ...sorry...but I hate it!!! (the vengarox)
Diny said on October 2, 2002 22:25:
okay that ’Fries’-thingy is better..but I don’t like that:
A decent album
I’ll always miss
I’ll never forget
When we had hits
Roxette were good
Roxette were flying
Now we’ve sunk so low
We’re just dying
(they changed the text of ’waiting 4 the rain’)
I don’t like any of the song...I mean how they changed them...
Vixzter said on October 3, 2002 05:41:
Both pages are actualy meant to be a joke ;) or had you not noticed? ;) maybe don’t keep looking at them if you don’t like them ;) just an idea ;)

Daily Vengarox is a blast - i’m still laughing @ the post section ’Flamable talk’
JohnUK21 said on October 3, 2002 12:04:
I LOVE IT!
I think Per and Marie would LAUGH if they saw this!!
SirMikeAlot said on October 3, 2002 12:53:
Fries is also very funny - (we used to be) stars, it will take a long long time to make the charts, hahahahaha
Diny said on October 3, 2002 13:04:
@ Vixzter
I know that was meant to be joke...but I don’t like it...
sorry...but that’s my opinion...and it won’t change...
and I won’t look at it again...
DaminehGessle said on October 5, 2002 09:28:
The site was funny and you guys are all right. But Venga dude... what is up with you gal? duh uh duh uh??!?!?! What the heck?
Jud (moderator) said on October 5, 2002 09:57:
the site rox! :P
But I prefer the fries one better.. !! THAT was funny!
Jackaroo said on October 5, 2002 12:12:
I found both sites absolutley hilarious and I’m sure Rox have had a laugh at it too.
ngriffioen said on October 8, 2002 09:02:
The fries site is hilarious indeed! Hmm after reading the Marie Dimberg diary I’m starting to think that Marie Dimberg made sure Roxette wouldn’t perform on the NOTP-tour (short for “Not On The Promo”-tour??) *LOL*
Humour/sarcasm is something that can save you!! You just have to see it in the right perspective!
Venga-Rox said on December 11, 2002 03:17:
