Concerts

There are quite a few concerts coming up in the next few days. There seem to be many more this summer than last. These three are the main ones for the next week.

Tomorrow, 30 June, at the Dinamo stadium Schiller is playing with Alban Skenderaj.

On 4 July there is a choice between Sean Paul at the Qemal Stafa stadium and Mustafa Sandal at the Dinamo stadium.

I had never heard of either of these people so for anyone who is as uninformed as I was before I checked google, Mustafa Sandal is big in Turkey, and Sean Paul is, according to his website, 'the worldwide ambassador of dancehall reggae.'

He probbably saw footage from G.W.Bush visit and decided to give a show. Ya mon!

Sean Paul in Albania - really a surprise!

I've seen him live at Vienna last summer at some free festival, you shouldn't miss it if you like reggae, hiphop and dancehall - great party. How much are the tickets, I'm thinking of going again?

Mustafa Sandal is some kind of Turkish turbofolk-in-disguise as far as I know, but i recon it can be a good fun, i dunno.

I don't listen to hip-hop or rnb. It gives me headache. I change the channel when those songs start, but i like Sean Paul. I don't understand what he says because he has some accent. I just think that the music has rhythm and it always makes me get up and dance. I put up the volume and start dancing even in the car when they play his songs on the radio.
I have heard Mastafa Sandal as a name but i don't know which are his songs now. Everyone will go to Sean Paul, Mustafa should change his concert date.

Yeah, I shoulda been there to thank Sean Paul in person, for all the girls that have shaken their booty against my tool while dancing to his shiat...

Guys I just met him and made a foto with him and also got an autograph. Now I will go to the concert. Mustafa Sandal is having his concert on the 24th I think.

It makes sense to rearrange the other concert. It's hard to see how he could compete. I've been listening to Sean Paul all night drifting on the wind across the city. I hope you all enjoyed it.

Dy Rame Per Tirane

I was watching Top Channel last night, first the news, then Fiks Fare. According to them Tirana's citizens now have a choice not only between Rama and Olldashi, but also between Rama and Rama. A minor right-wing faction, Parti 'Balli Kombetar' , submitted papers to the election authorities registering their candidate, Akile Rama. The people on Fiks Fare got hold of the papers and sent a reporter and camera team to the address listed for Mr A Rama. After much ringing of the bell the gate was reluctantly opened by a middle-aged woman who refused to speak to the reporter and tried to close the gate on her. Back in the studio Saimiri and Doctori - the two presenters of Fiks Fare - revealed that Mr Akile Rama was 73 years old, in hospital, and did not know he was now a candidate for mayor. They also compared two documents - the papers submitted on his behalf, and a genuine document he had signed. The signatures were not even remotely similar. There was an interview with the lea

Albania and the Perils of the 21st Century

Another article on religion in Albania appeared yesterday. Patrick Poole, writing in the American Thinker , argues that Saudi funding for the construction of mosques and the training of imams is a threat to Albania, since these mosques and imams reflect the fundamentalist interpretation of Islam dominant in Saudi Arabia.

Guide Turistike

According to the World Travel and Tourism Council , the future is bright for Albania. The Council ranks Albania ninth out of 174 countries for tourism growth over the next ten years. A summary of the Council's report is available, as is the full report complete with many pages of graphs, charts and spreadsheets. This summer I have seen a number of tourists on the streets of Tirana. Some of them may well be Albanian expats, or people of Albanian descent returning home to visit family, but others are genuine 'foreigners'. Judging from their appearance, they are probably best described as 'independent travellers' - the kind of people who are not interested in luxury hotels or crowded beaches. This is a good start, but independent travellers are not the kind of big spenders that the tourist industry likes. In the longer term, if Albania wants to bring in the kind of free-spending tourists who currently holiday in Croatia or Slovenia, there will have to be a huge invest
