missing muse concert this year is such a bummer. i woke up two hours late to book the tickets which was expected because i stayed until the wee hours for the nba finals. a two- hour delay is huge when booking concerts especially one as adroit and gifted as muse. a band that certainly don't need hype to sell concerts. glasgow is the only venue available and the mister reckons it's too far. fine. nil complaints.it was grand to see kobe being kobe again. dwight howard and the orlando magic are the surprise finalist. lebron james is like the king of basketball, the favorite of my high school classmate bilog (hope he wouldn't kill me for this namedrop) . lebron and his team cleveland were outclassed by stan van gundy's sturdy crew in the eastern conference finals. when i first saw howard during the beijing olympics, i was wondering why he was the starting center rather than chris bosh. i was informed by the brothers, that he's actually a star. so pardon my nba ignorance and the lack of basketball interest in this part of the globe. football has such a grip with this nation and the world that the nba finals are not even in the papers.
basketball is the excuse for most friends and acquaintances indifference to football. "oh, sorry, i'm a basketball fan and i'm not interested in football. " they would mutter. "so did you happen to catch the nets beating the heat at the O2 arena?" i'm met with a blank stare. i'll probably get shot by saying that RP is not even that good in basketball -- china, korea, japan have the height and the might in the region. it's standard cliche that our height is perfect for football. how tall is aaron lennon or kaka? i'm barking at the wrong tree. let's talk about katrina and hayden.
