TWO EVILS: "To choose what is worst, to be nominated or to perform, is like choosing between two evils," Magne Furuholmen says.
SAVOY: Paal Waaktaar Savoy is nominated …nd will perform with a-ha.
Original Article By Ernst Larsen - (Translation by Sabine Clement) Two of them can get an award tonight - the third one will just perform. a-ha will be the final act at the Spellemann Show. It was half past five in the afternoon, when Paal Waaktaar Savoy and Lauren arrived at Oslo Spektrum. Paal and the rest of a-ha will appear on stage at the Spelleman Show tonight. Lauren will sit in the audience and applaud. The Spellemann Award still holds value for the cynical a-ha boys. Paal and Lauren Savoy are nominated for 'Best pop band'. "It's just short of a Grammy," was Paal Waaktaar Savoy's short retort when asked upon the meaning of a Spellemann Award. A few minutes later, Magne Furuholmen arrived. When asked what he thought worst, to take part in the contest or to perform with a-ha, he replied: "That's like choosing between two evils." The last man to arrive was Morten Harket, who rushed at high speed past Dagbladet's journalists, while the dress rehearsal was already in swing for half an hour. He barely had time to say that he was happy before he left to get on the set, and go over this year's Spellemann's final song one more time. Photo captions:
