Beware the Badger's Curse (and Friday Quiz)

OK just to get this out of the way (and this is the last post that will refer to football)


Beware of the Badger’s curse!
I told you I had put  curse on the Azzurri - and they did not get out of the first round of the World Cup. 
I have never seen so many crying Italians. Bliss!
And Karma!  
France got to the world cuo courstesy of a handball by Thierry Henry. Result: Out in the first round. I don't believe in Karma - but WTF.


And now for something completely different. Some photos. Eight have music in common. One is Austrian.


All of them are on my iPod. If you like you can tell me who they are. If you don't like then don't!


You can cheat by looking at the pic properties.But do you really want to cheat?

Don't recognize any of them.

I probably would recognize their music as boring though.

7 is Mercury Rev. And Keegan88, none of these musicians are remotely boring.

Badger, will you be at Suzanne Vega's concert at the Konzerthaus next week? I will.

@EmmaK

I think Badger's last comment there was an example of the Irony for which he is well known.
