They do theatrical-like rock music of sorts; definitely one of the best Danish bands out there in the humble opinion of this blogger. And hey, you're in luck, most of their music is in English, unlike the one I posted here (which is I believe from a play).

I'm looking forward to a nice fall and winter holding off until the last possible moment. And about one of you del.icio.us links, Canada never officially sent troops. Although I believe that Canadian soldiers did fight there via joining American units. You're just trying to stir up sentiment to assert the Danish claim on Hans Island. Never!

I love Copenhagen in the summertime, but after living in this country for most of my life I've come to enjoy the changing of the seasons as well. I'm actually looking forward to the storms in the fall, the snow in the winter and the dark. Well, maybe not the dark... but then it's a good thing that I have the glow of my laptop to bask in.
