Hi Bettosilvestri, I was born in South Africa but my parents are portuguese. For me the best south african bands

besides these 2 are Johnny Clegg & Savuka ( Afropop ), Lucky Dube ( Reggae ), Prime Circle ( Rock ), Fokofpolisiekar ( HeavyMetal ), Skwatta Kamp ( Hiphop ), Danny K (R&B ), Revolution ( House music ), Mandoza ( Kwaito ). Then there are also other famous singers like Brenda Fassie, Lebo Mathosa, Miriam Makeba, Via Afrika with the song Hey Boy, one of my best ever South African song.

Could easily have add a few thousand seats to the North and South Stands of Kings Park. There were origionally designs in the pipeline for such renovations. So your demolision story is crap!

And the teams can't full the stadium cos nobody goes to watch soccer. It's apparently more fun to watch it on the TV in a shebeen. Bottom line - if the Sharks don't move there, the stadium will go bankrupt. And the Sharks don't wanna move! So the Joseph Mehabihabi stadium is a waste of money!!

@mjribes they way Absa stadium has been built it is very difficult to upgrade its seats. the seats on the top leven are so steap u wouldnt have another level. to uprgade it meant for the government to demolish all the stands which is almost like building a new one. i reali dont have a problem with it and the teams cant fill the stadium coz u dont go and watch soccer

[lolkiling]

south africa first need to sort their shit

[mjribes]

So your glad that Durban decided to waste however many million rand on building a new 70 000 seater stadium less than 100 meters away from an existing 52 000 seater stadium? Don't you think it would have been wiser to spend less expanding the existing stadium? Especially considering that there is no local sports team in Durban that will be able to full the new stadium after the world cup. In other words, it will become a white elephant that the local residants will have to maintain via rates tax

Common, this new stadium is going to be the tourist attraction, and yes, I am glad we have something so special.
