LINKIN PARK V’S WHITE LIES: WHO’S BETTER AT GEOGRAPHY?
by Chris Reed
I was getting very excited about seeing one my favourite bands, White Lies, here in Singapore and then the Japanese Tsunami happened…so what you’re thinking? Well they cancelled their Asian trip because of it obviously! Yes I can see you’re confused. They cancelled Japan, Singapore and Australia! Now White Lies are bright boys, they all have degrees and were public school educated…..Asia is a big place! Someone should get a map out for them, check it out on Google Earth boys…. Japan is 3,300 miles away from Singapore! It’s even further away from Sydney, 4,800 miles!!!! It’s a bit like cancelling a concert in London because of something that has happened in America or Canada! Now contrast that with those harder lads from America, Linkin Park, who, in the middle of the nuclear breakdown, earthquake aftermath and also after the Tsunami actually scheduled in a concert tour of …yes you’ve guessed it…Japan!
