I will tune in, if it airs where I am, just for Donna Summer.
Myself and a group of 8 from NY & California made travel arrangements to Oslo, Norway to attend the awarding of the Nobel Prize to our Presodent, Barack Obama. The Tickets to the concert were made available on Oct. 29th at 9am Oslo time (3am NYC). However, when I callth the box office, the attendent informed me that the tickets sold out in 5 minutes.
Can anything be done to help us celebrate such a wonderful event in history?
