Morten and Magne were guests on "Sommeråpent" on NRK1 last night.
Morten ended up sitting in host Pål Thoresen's chair during the interview, because he was afraid of the draft up on the roof of Folketeateret, from which the show is broadcast live. Thoresen's chair was the only place he wanted to sit.
Morten: "There are a lot of concerts that I have perform, and I have to make sure that I don't catch a cold. I'm already quite tired of having to take that into consideration. Tonight we're sitting outside, and if there is too much draft I'll just have to say; folks, this is too much for me."
Magne about the Royal Albert Hall concert: "This is probably the first concert ever where we'll start with "Take On Me". It will be quite a special concert for us, and we have done our best to separate it from the rest of the big tour. There are three main events that are coming up now; the Norwegian stadium tour, which is completely different and spectacular. The anniversary concert in Royal Albert Hall which will be very strict conceptually, by playing the first album we relased from the first to the last song. And then there is the big tour in the autumn, which will again be something different. We try to vary things that way."
Morten about the upcoming concerts in Japan: "We had also hoped to visit more countries than Japan. Unfortunately we won't have time for more, but at least we'll visit Japan. It's not long since our last visit and we're looking forward to it. Just a couple more days now - or, you're leaving tomorrow?"
Magne: "I leave tomorrow."
Host Pål Thoresen: "We should add that Paul Waaktaar-Savoy is not here. Nobody knows where he is, though he was last observed in Italy."
Morten: "We got another Pål instead."
Pål Thoresen: "I'm the stand-in, so it's still Pål, Mags and Morten. That's how it should be."
Magne about the Norwegian stadium tour: "We're hoping these will be our most spectacular concerts ever. The stage production will actually be of the same size as the [1991] concert in Rio de Janeiro in front of 200.000 people. So we have spared no expenses and we'll do our best to make this a proper farewell and a big party."
The whole interview can be seen on NRK's web-TV here.

What is "Morten Furuholmen" (that is what they showing...lol) telling?
He he.
There is a well-known defense attorney in Norway called Morten Furuholmen, and the two of them often get confused in the press by inattentive journalists.Here's what Magne said:
"I am pretty sure that Shining has a real chance to leave a mark internationally. So we're hoping that the money can help them to get heard, to get noticed by people. That's what it takes, in our opinion.They have something that's quite unique for them at the moment, and there should be several filmmakers in Hollywood eager to work with these guys now."
