PS.. the two shows here were superb... incredibly awesome... totally agree on the camera issue.

How things are going in South America? What do you all live? It would be great to hear from you! And we all are very interested in what every one lives, even boiling pan stories!

I also watch those little movies, and i'm always surprised to see how much lightning screens there are! I mean there are plenty of screens! In fact i'm more surprised that she didn't say anything until now! She got angry in Detroit, i think, screaming "Stop!" to a fan... Well done, Björk, don't let them do that to you! ;-) It’s great she said that! I also watch those little movies, and i’m always surprised to see how much lightning screens there are!
