Here is an amazing clip of the first 20 mins. of the Beijing olympics
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWn72RiAYMk (courtesy- Youtube).

Pretty amazing stuff. Esp. the 2008 drummers synchonised moments is terrific. Also having the drums double up as light station is pretty imaginatine.

On a more serious note, all the talk radio stations in the GTA, slam the olmpics being held at China. All say that the Olympics must have never been given to China in the first place. They say that China never put in force the press freedom, easing of human rights abuses that they promised in the first place.

The tag the Beijing olympics is put at $43 Billion US. The price tag for the last one held at Athens was $15 Billion US. Hence it is a mighty strength of power for China and has been thrust into the era of rapid technological and ecconomical progress.
Any CD wishing to see the Olympics with the same frevor as the World cup cricket matchs..
What channels in TV (for the GTA region) will broadcast the opening ceremony / events?

Peace
