"This Live production aims to reproduce Abba Live in Concert with particular attention to detail.
Focusing on the live aspect with an exceptional all live cast, the show features the very high standard of musicianship needed to recreate Abba songs, and with all performers singing totally live, audiences are experiencing a true live performance.
Packed full of excitement and vivacity, dazzling costumes and authentic lighting design, they will take you on a journey back to the 1970's. Wherever the band performs, audiences can watch and hear all of the hits and some hidden surprises for even the most ardent abba fan. Don't miss this show performing in theatres across the U.K.!"

"Direct from London, a tribute to the 70s" in tiny print.

Showing the original members on the poster is grossly misleading. There are going to be some disappointed fans in the audience, and they forked out 1200 Bt for this travesty.

The photos of the band members of ABBA Forever do very real to the original ABBA members. Perhaps too real ... which might indicate misleading and scamming. It seems also Thaivisa plays along with the title:'ABBA tickets for sale'.

Sorry guys, this poster whas created by our Indian college.

You must read ABBA Fake instead of ABBA Forever

From Wikipedia.........After ABBA broke up in late 1982, Andersson and Ulvaeus achieved success writing music for the stage while Lyngstad and Fältskog pursued solo careers with mixed success

And that for me sums up the problem with Thailand for me I like music,bands,festivals,theatre and live in London and am well served with plenty to do and see. If an Abba tribute band is the event of the year (I have seen them though and it is a good night out !) then that just highlights the paucity of the entertainment offering.

In my opinion, the headline was designed to mislead and the organisers and sponsors know this.

I have no doubt the band will provide an enjoyable show, but it is not ABBA: No, once again a money making venture provided by chancers out to make a fast buck.

1200THB to see a tribute band? Someone's making a killing!

Money, Money, Money is The Name of the Game, When all is Said and Done.

A bit naughty to use ABBA real photo's on the Poster,TIT. i'm sure ABBA will not even bother to sue the Promoters,they are making too much money,with worldwide multi shows of the musical "Mama Mia" to bother with trivialities.
