Is there anyone is South Africa that ACTUALLY bought the dvd in one of the sa stores yet?

Yes... was released on Monday. Got my copy 2day... (still, a waste of *&^ damn money!!)
erweetiran said on December 11, 2003 06:24:
What did you pay for it? I bought mine from Kalahari.net and payed R154 + R17.9 for delivery= R171.9
purplemedusa said on December 11, 2003 18:05:
WOW!! Thats not bad... I was happy to pay R200 (although still bitchin bout the content!!!)

Haven’t bought it yet....maybe I will maybe not, seems a bit pointless for only those two new songs, but I proberly will get it since Marie looks DROP DEAD GORGIOUS in the “A thing about you” clip...
Electra said on February 15, 2004 12:46:
Haha, damn you are so RIGHT!!!!!!:-) No, I think at some stage I’ll have to get my own copy!!!! Seeing that you really tempted me with showing me the intro and the ATAY-clip......

purplemedusa said on February 16, 2004 11:40:
Hey, Xarr!! Belinda & myself is from ol’ Cape Town... very few fans here indeed, but that doesn’t make things easier to get hold of Rox items - the darn second-hand shops keeps being empty with sales attendants saying something in the line of “Oh, we had that in stock a week ago, but...”. Bullshit I say!!
Nontheless, summer’s gr8 here!! Had some really HOT days the last week or so (And you know, the good weather brings out the hunky guys!!)
Anyways, Chat to ya soon!!

Hey Xarrr
I was looking for a friend for the RS 2 disk cd last year while I was in SA. No hope in Cape Town. I did however find a copy in Green Acers Port Elizabeth, and two shops in Pretoria also sold it. My search basically indicated that the big CD sellers (e.g. Musica, L&L etc) and places like Game and Dion don’t stock it anymore. All the place that still stock it was privately owned CD shops. If you are in Pretoria or PE, or know people in these cities that can pick it up for you give me a shout and I will tell you the locations.

hej Xarrr!!! Great to hear from you again....no hope with the Room Service Double cd....but I’ll swap ya mine for Marie’s Boxset if ya like....
I am desparate, heehee!!!!
I must just say as a Marie fan, I am truelly VERY impressed with Mr. Gessle’s Mazarin, the whole album is a “treffer” heehee, and I really like it!!!
Thanx to my little Purple Medusa that I have a copy of it (...biiiiiig hugs to you honee!!!!!) and I esp love
“tycker om nar du tal pa mej” & “pa promenad..” but the whole cd ROX!!!!
CAN’T WAIT FOR MARIE’S SOLO ALBUM ANYMORE THOUGH.....
xarrrr said on February 20, 2004 21:28:
hej Belinda!!! yeaaaaaah Per’s Mazarin is AMAZING!!!! i still cant get enough of it :D
are you planing on seeing any GT shows this summer!?
Electra said on February 21, 2004 13:57:
Hej Xarrr
I really don’t think so, unfortunetly.....boohoo!!! I bet you are though, right!!!:-)
I saw two shows on the Atertaget tour in ’96 and believe me, honey, it was HECTIC!!!!!....I was really affraid I was gonna get killed the way the people went INSANE....unlike any other shows/concerts I have EVER visited...I had to be pulled out in the Beach Club gig, heehee, EMABARASSING, but anyway, had to watch the rest of the show from the side of the stage with the securities....it was utter CHAOS in that little club that night....Gyllene Tider sends the Swedes into MADNESS, heehee, its quite something to witness!!!
When does the new tour start?????
Would be fun to visit Sweden again though...sniff, sniff...
xarrrr said on February 21, 2004 21:49:
awww!!!!! yeh... i’m kinda scared for the mass hysteria!!! but wow, i cant wait to see them! if its anything like Per’s tour its gonna rock!!! :D
