Hi Guys...anybody watch the closure ceremony of the Commonwealth Games on TV last nite....just curious on your thoughts.......in the meantime here's mine...just to mention a few....
Boring!
Dull!
Stupid!
Amateurish!
Irrelevant to anyone from overseas!
Indulgently Melbourne.
Corny......and :puke
CRINGE................................until the Indians put on their spectacle which put everything that had come before it and that came after it to shame by a long mile.....their 'show' was bigger than Ben Hur and they were'nt even performing on home ground.:thumb
i didnt watch the close after i watched the open. they got carried away with crap rather than the event and the competitors. so my guess was the clsoe would be crap also...
i think this opening and closing crap is becoming over rated, and probably soon will be commercial.
desides how can the same dudes, go from country to country and try to out do them selves?
I want a copy of the opening & closing on DVD, for those nights when I just cant get to sleep. I thought the games were held in Australia. Farnsee was great though.
Couldn't believe in an international event like that, with all sorts of "good" sports being played, that they would use it as an opportunity to showcase our irrelevant backyard footy game that isn't played anywhere but here.
If you hadn't guessed I dont like footy...Let the flames begin
Grinners were good though
1954 Oval long term project going nowhere
1958 Beetle drag car project
1959 Beetle project I need to sell one day
1969 Squareback
Yep couldn't agree with U more.....folks from all round the Globe and they put on all that 'shit' (local football...skipping girl vinegar.....lunar park..just to mention a few) that would mean nothing on a global scene.....besides it wasn't even entertaining.....as for footballers and ballerinas....made the footballers look like a bunch of pansies.....but hey maybe the artistic director was gay and and thought he would make a aussie Brokeback mountain statement. :o

John"this is my final performance"Farnham.....................
I'm so over Australia's obsession with sport. Why don't we get obsessed about something that really matters, like people and culture. I stopped listening when the whole country sooked coz some swimmer got the flu. :o

Maybe they should have set the harbour bridge on fire with fireworks like they do for every other bloody thing that happens.
the commentaters were all sydneyites and the couple of time I tuned in the were still making sarcastic remarks bout Melbourne weather. All pretty banal and unimaginative IMHO
