But their music still attracted more than 35,000 people to Rotorua.
I remember, when the taxi driver said
I can't take you into Trenchtown
It's not safe there
Especially for tourists
And I want to keep my reputation
So no, tourist don't cry
No tourist no cry
If there were any tears on the weekend it was tears of joy]]>http://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bluesbro/default/thumb-msg-120206523208.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bluesbro/default/synd-msg-120206523208.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bluesbro/default/mob-msg-120206523208.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bluesbro/default/gallery-msg-120206523208.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bluesbro/default/large-msg-120206523208.jpghttp://cdn.buzznet.com/assets/users16/bluesbro/default/feat-msg-120206523208.jpgThe Wailers at Ragamuffinbuzznet:user:entry:id:288119812008--0-2-T03: 1:0:-08:002008--0-2-T03: 1:0:-08:002008--0-2-T03: 1:0:-08:00bluesbro None of my UB40 shots came out, cause of the light and the fact that my SLR doesn't have a viewfinder LCD display, but they were awesome.
So were the Wailers. So last year I went to Bob Marleys house, this year the Wailers came to mine.
They oversold Ragamuffin by a mere 7,000. How do you do that by accident.
