Adventures of an Augustan abroad

Laibach Correction and Other Things

Posted by Rhonda Jones on February 22, 2007 - 5:12 PM

From Andrei, who comments quite frequently: "Laibach is a Slovenian experimental music group, strongly associated with industrial, martial and neo-classical.

"Laibach formed June 1, 1980 in Trbovlje, Slovenia (Yugoslavia).

"The name "Laibach" is the German name for Slovenia's capital city, Ljubljana."

Slovenia, not Slovakia, as I said in my Laibach entry of the other day. (Thanks, Andrei!)

Hey, at least I haven't called Bucharest, Budapest yet. ;) And don't even get me started about Mufasa and Mustafa, which are both "cats," by the way, a fact that doesn't help the situation at all.

Andrei, who is from Bucharest, has given me some wonderful ideas to address in the future as well, which I will begin to do next week. I am about to take a trip to Bulgaria and will probably have a bit to say about that as well.

Brush up your Cyrillic alphabet.
Bucuresti (Bucharest) is BYKAPEWT. Just so you know your way back.
