Plumber promo starts
Written by tevensso on March 11, 2006 to Per Gessle.
STOCKHOLM - The Plumber is back from wherever he was at (vacation again?). In a fresh message on his site he announces that the European promotion will commence next week. Per will travel to Germany and play “Jo-Anna Says” on the show “Chartbreak-Hotel.” After that he will go to Switzerland to meet the press for a day. “All in the name of colourful entertainment!” as he states it.
Per also wishes to remind everyone about the Formula 1 season that starts on Sunday.
Per finishes off his message with “And more to come…”

Suzi Quatro is an old 70s rocker girl.

Sat1 shows it.
It is Chartbreak not Chartbeat (soap-page is wrong)

if you can make a concert at “Pop im Park” this summer! That would be reeeeaaallly nice of you! :D
Anyway..have a nice Promo tour! :)
...die Zipfelbuben...My God who is that? Why the hell do we fans always have to watch such rubbish shows?
joyrider said on March 11, 2006 15:51:
these shows are cheap produced bullsh*t ... no acknowledged artist, all c-rated bands/singers ... except for per of course.
PER, YOU SHOULD PRESENT JO-ANNA AT “WETTEN DASS”.
however, maybe someday roxette will comeback at “wetten dass”, the only german tv show with a-rated celebrities. btw: it’s a shame they haven’t been there yet!
roxgirl_germany said on March 11, 2006 16:23:
I think not being able to attend the record of this show is no loss. ;)
The few minutes had better be recorded on TV. *evilgrin*
I expect the air date to be sometime in April.
CRIZ said on March 11, 2006 17:06:
Yeah “Wetten dass” would be perfect! But weren’t Roxette invited somewhere back in 1994..but Per got the flu or something?? Too long ago..I can’t remember!
pardek said on March 11, 2006 19:34:
i’m pretty sure Roxette performed Joyride @ “Wetten, dass...?”
tevensso (moderator) said on March 11, 2006 20:26:
Per claims Roxette has been on Wetten dass...? four or five times.
Starrox said on March 11, 2006 20:57:
*ROFL* In his dreams maybe! *g* But ok, they were on the Dutch (or was it Belgian?) version of “Wetten, dass...?” in 1999 or 2001, so he’s not totally wrong... ;-)
ETA: IIRC, someone wrote an email to ZDF (the station WD is on) a few years ago and asked about inviting Roxette. The reply? They don’t approach the record companies, the record companies have to approach them and EMI had never asked them about getting Roxette on the show...
ETA2: http://www.zdf.de/ZDFde/download/0,1896,2003052,00.xls
This is a list with all artists that have been on WD in the past 25 years - can anyone find Roxette on there? ;-)
per_mson said on March 11, 2006 21:07:
@Tev: Nope, Per/MF/Rox has never been on Wetten Dass (the German/Austrian/Swiss one)... Not yet at least! :-)
Zelda said on March 11, 2006 21:21:
This is a really cheap tv show!
PER, what do you want in this show? And in Freiburg? You should perform at the ECHO or VERSTEHEN SIE SPASS!
Can´t believe it. But better than nothing!
tevensso (moderator) said on March 11, 2006 21:28:
I’m not saying they have, Per says that. And to the contrary what people believe, I ain’t him! ;)
purplemedusa said on March 12, 2006 00:31:
Hope that EMI is actually pulling their darn fingers out for the promotion work in Europe... so far I’m NOT impressed - and Per shouldn’t be either!!!
pardek said on March 12, 2006 09:14:
@starrox: your list is about Wett-Paten, not about music acts that only performed. and as far as i know, Roxette “only” played Joyride, and then they went away without sitting on the famous sofa... so our beloved band is not on the list.
crashroxer said on March 12, 2006 09:21:
Roxette NEVER performed at “Wetten dass” - Germany!!!!
Believe me!
Jud (moderator) said on March 12, 2006 09:51:
Wetten, dass..? might be a good program to perform at for promotion.. but the program host Thomas Gottschalk is annoying :D
shine said on March 12, 2006 12:25:
NO! Roxette NEVER performed at Wetten Dass...? in Germany!
Sad but true!
Kiwein1 said on March 12, 2006 12:26:
He is the most annoying host ever. I can’t stand him longer than ten minutes.
And yes - Wetten Dass would be a very good promo for any artist.
Bibi said on March 12, 2006 13:23:
Does anyone know when the show will be on TV? The site doesn’t tell anything about it!
Jud (moderator) said on March 12, 2006 13:45:
maybe about a month later, as the album is released late April in Germany or? we’ll have to keep an eye on sat1 website ;)
They sometimes have interesting bets @ wetten dass but that guy is just >:| annoying, i specially hate it when one of the contestants has to concentrate and he keeps on talking *ggrrrr*
