I went to see Korpi at Valparaíso, since I was invited to. It went really well, even I went with the band to drink some beers. Nice guys. They walked by the streets and nothing really happened.
I hope you won't face any trouble at Colombia, it's a great country full of nice metalheads. Just their politics sucks.
About the english stuff, that's true haha. I guess you won't find any problem with the people here cause they'll only say hi and - if able - ask for a picture or something like that.
But should I go to Colombia? You're really scaring me. I tried to not be stereotypical, but I only see not-so-nice news from Colombia here.
Allfader, what do you recommend?

naaa i don't think you have to be scared.
this friend of mine went to so many concerts during his stay in colombia without any kind of problem.
the only problematic concerts was the two i've mentioned before (slayer and iron maiden), one of those groups (i don't remember exactly which, but i suppose iron maiden) was in colombia for the first time, so there was a great expectation for the show and many fans were upset for not being able to see it.
so...even if we all know how good borknagar are, they don't have a such high number of followers, i suppose
i just mentioned that episode because of jens' funny statement, you asked me more explanations and i linked the videos.
but as darklord said, they are just extreme episode. i don't see anything really dangerous in someone who asks his idol to spit over his t-shirt, just something really hilarious and absurd!
But what if I ask Lars to spit on my shirt… will there be a riot after that?
You just will be spat by a heavily constipated Lars, like this:
EDIT: Since you'll be going to quito, try to see this band live with Ronaldinho on vocals

Man... I often notice that on so many metal bands' forums, there are always South American members, clearly die-hard fans, just aching for the band to come play for them and nobody ever does. So I'm really happy for all those folks down south who are going to get to see Borknagar! I will keep my fingers crossed that this will mean more shows to come a little further north... well, a lot further north... but I'm really happy for you guys!
Jens F. Ryland said:I'm sure we can arrange something like a signing- session or meet and greet he he.
But it seems like we'll be a bit more "protected" in SA then we're used to with bodyguards and all that stuff as the crowd has a reputation for being, well lets say a bit more enthusiastic he he. I ususally just hang out with a beer in the crowd after, so lets see if that's an option
You guys are great. Thanks for the kind words....we cant wait to go to South America and play for all the fans down there. We will have a sick set of songs for you.
If you guys play Colossus, The Genuine Pulse and The Eye of Oden my body is all yours (?
Can't wait anymore for that ass kicking metal performance!
