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.'

well, no clue who Mustafa Sandal is but trust me, we know Sean Paul, the Jamaican Jew who reinvented dancehall.
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.

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.

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.

Kamëz Part 3

For those who want a lengthy detailed report into the election there will, undoubtedly, be a range of them to chose from. In the meantime, here are my brief reflections on the last few weeks. At the heart of the problems around this election is the unwarranted influence of political parties on all aspects of the electoral process. Every institution responsible for organising and facilitating the election is under the control of political parties. The Electoral Code itself was heavily revised only days before the original date for the elections and only weeks before the actual date (Law 9676 13 January 2007). It was these revisions, specifically Article 181/2, that created the overly complicated identification requirements that caused so much confusion, and undoubtedly disenfranchised some voters. Let's be clear though: these revisions were not designed to protect the interests of the electorate. They were drafted primarily because the political parties do not trust each other. The ...

Big in Albania

Ask me how much I knew about Albania before coming here and my list would be a short one: Enver Hoxha, bunkers and Sir Norman Wisdom. I have no idea when or how I acquired this extensive body of knowledge, but the association of Norman Wisdom with Albania was by far the most interesting part of it. I remember watching Norman Wisdom's old films on British television. My parents were fans of his wholesome, slapstick comedy, but apparently missed the ideological significance of Pitkin's relationship with Mr Grimsdale. Pitkin, the downtrodden and oppressed representative of the workers, triumphed every time over his capitalist oppressor, Mr Grimsdale - and he got the girl. It took a theorist of Hoxha's insight and profundity to discern this deeper political message. It always seemed tremendously unlikely, yet the story of Sir Norman's fame in Albania has been reported in worthy sources like the BBC , the Guardian and the Daily Telegraph . According to the Guardian, when Wi...
