So rock fans celebrated a reggae superstar?

Rock = Stick it to the man you angry mother f*cker.

Reggae = Chill dude and love one another.

What am I missing here?

You must not listen to a lot of Marley.

Next up, a statue of Superman in Berlin.

I'm not sure a statue of Hitler would go over well...

Can't say that's never happened to me. Maybe the reactions will be the same knee jerk stuff. Once they read something, they scroll right down to reply without knowing what happened afterward...

Much like the government.

/haha, we'll see

There is only 1 bob Marley these days:

A comedian from Maine (helps if you're from the N.E, his jokes can be very localized)

Bob Marley was good,
but he was no Phyllis Diller.

What an honor for Bob Marley to receive the same adulation in Serbia as Samantha Fox (new window) ...

As neat as the Bob Marley statue may or may not be, it seems rather like Serbs and Croats will put up a statue of just about anyone for any old reason (judging from the article anyway).

They'll always play covers of Bob Marley songs on classic rock stations, but not the real thing. Just like they'll play George Thurgood but not BB King or Buddy Guy.

I wonder why?

It didn't happpen. She was asked to sing at a concert and she was pissed for some reason and left. They abandoned the statue idea after that.


The Rocky statue is pretty cool.
