Yes, the Multe Music crew has arrived at Gardemoen Airport, taken the airport express train into Oslo and gotten settled in our digs for the evening, Thon Hotel Astoria. And we'll be taking over the blog for the next couple of weeks as we travel in Norway.
There's lots going on in Oslo tonight. Two major publications, VG ( Verdens Gang) and Morgenbladet are sponsoring outdoor activities free and open to the public.
Morgenbladet is having an event at the new Opera house in Norway, very near the central train station. The building has been getting lots of attention for its architecture and placement.
VG will have the VG-Lista Topp 20 concert at Rådhusplassen with groups such as a-ha, Alexander Rybak, the Hallelujah-kameratene (Lind, Nilsen, Fuentes, Holm) and, among others, a Sami rap group called Duolva Duottar.
So it will be a lively evening for the crew. Tomorrow morning, the crew is off on the train to Hallingdal and a wedding with plenty of tradition and music. From there, we go to Geilo for NM i Folkemusikk — Norway's national folk dance and music competition.
