We recently brought you the exclusive footage of the U2 concert in Milan (here), featuring their new mind-blowing stage which seems to defy all laws of gravity and stage building. Now while it is awesome to look at night time, one wonders what it might look like in the day. To the naked eye. Well […]
Taken very recently at the entrance of a bar in Thailand. That’s a lag! There are tons of hilarious things that people spot in Thailand. A lot of it is sent in to 2oceansvibe. A lot of it doesn’t make it to the vibe. But this one does, because it’s GENIUS! It’s pretty […]
This arrived in my inbox this morning and I was pleasantly surprised. It first appeared on Darren Scott’s radio show and features a new South African version of those GPS voices that give you directions in the car. Her name is “Beauty” and it’s a very well put together vibe, mentioning various road […]
With this whole 40 year anniversary of the moon landing vibe going on, everyone seems obsessed with the front pages of the various newspapers that were printed back in 1969. Like this little beauty from The New York Times. Wow! Click here for an even better front page Which is great and all […]
I spent the night at The Muse ‘s place at Harbour Edge on Sunday night. We woke up in the middle of the night at some Godforsaken hour, with the intercom ringing. It’s an incredibly loud sound that it gives and, for a moment, I genuinely thought we were under attack. It went on for […]
I was invited to an exhibition in Johannesburg which I’m unable to attend as I’ll be out of the country (I’ll tell you about that at a later stage – think Los Angeles). The background and story about the exhibition was so impressive that I was compelled to tell you about it – especially our […]
It’s been a while since I attended a big rock concert. I prefer more intimate scenarios, when they play private gigs for 50 people or so – which is often the case when you roll like this. That said, I heard that a friend of a friend recently attended a U2 concert in Milan which, […]
Whilst the TBG’s (Tall Blonde Guy) spell is being felt and discussed as far afield as New York, I received this TBG sighting over the weekend. In a very rarely seen twist of fate, a Capetonian managed to double up an incredible 33rd birthday with a TBG sighting! I mean, REALLY, what are the chances!!?? […]
Old Dems turns 47 this year. I know, can you believe it! Lieutenant Commander JoAnne Galloway It feels like just yesterday that she was tuning Lieutenant Daniel Kaffe, “My job is to make sure that you do your job. I’m special counsel for Internal Affairs. So my jurisdiction is pretty much in your face.” I […]
I’d seriously consider reading this article – ESPECIALLY seeing as winning tickets for the local SA lottery are being declared invalid (here ). And even so, it’s not like the local SA lottery jackpots are big enough for YOU! We usually only chat about the Euro Millions lottery when it hits a billion Rand. But […]
Michael Jackson did a variation of the song “A Horse with No Name” which was originally done by the band America in 1971. God, I miss that song. Michael Jackson’s unreleased song “A Place with No Name” TMZ reports: We’re told several years ago America’s manager gave his group’s permission for Jackson […]
Absolutely gorgeous. Charlotte Hawkins IS an angel.. SKY NEWS, mornings, DSTV channel 402. I enjoy her. So will you.
Just look at it slowly and let it sink in. Embrace it. HANNAH MIN TANNE Hey? Hannah MinTanne? Come on, man!! It’s pure unadulterated GENIUS! Well done, snaaksgenoeg.co.za ! [thanks brett] ps. to our non-afrikaans speaking readers out there, “Min Tanne” means “few teeth” and happens to sound similar to the original to […]
Whoever designed the T-shirt that they put on his statue to commemorate Mandela Day, should be shot. How rude! Naughty. Very naughty. [thanks dave]
It’s interesting to note that Dirty Skirts lead guitarist, David Moffatt, sent this in. Michael Jackson is obviously one of his major influences – I had no idea. I’ve been given their latest album another listen, trying to pic up some MJ flavour…. but I can’t find it. But Dave does dance sexy – so […]
In by far the most interesting news I’ve found on iol (ie. REUTERS) in quite some time, this article may well be all you need to get you through your miserable day. Check it out: Brothel offers discounts for cyclists Berlin – A Berlin brothel has come up with a novel way to negate […]

We ignore for a second the fact that she is married to Tom Brady, as we take out some time to simply peruse Gisele Bundchen. Whoopsie daisy! Wonderful! What a simply wonderful vibe we all just shared there. Stuart, could you say grace please..
Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince is the best Harry Potter adaptation yet (despite sitting next to someone with a super-size popcorn and slurpy and no sense of volume control!). The franchise has slowly evolved from an adorable, theme park-friendly fantasy adventure for kids into a swirling, dark mass of might and magic for older […]
We look after the good people, here at 2oceansvibe. You’ll remember sometime in May (here) I told you about that foosball competition and the fact that a bunch of 2oceansvibers were trying to win it. I asked you to help them win by voting online for them and, in return (should they win), I would […]
It’s weird, I was just about to write a story about this new Louis Vuitton watch with mysterious floating hands. It’s called the Louis Vuitton Tambour Mysterieuse (please appreciate that name) and it costs $250,000. The Louis Vuitton Tambour Mysterieuse CLICK HERE to see the chest it comes in But then I received […]
Pattie Maes from Media Lab gave this TED talk, regarding a new invention/development they’re working on called “Sixth Sense.” Before we get to the video, I thought I’d fill you in on the vibe. ‘SixthSense’ is a wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use […]
At first I didn’t want to mention this TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) sighting, as I didn’t think it was fair. I didn’t think it was fair that one person can have a DOUBLE TBG SIGHTING, in two different cities. How would that feel to the millions of other fans out there who would, quite literally, […]
Don’t let that headline confuse you. It’s just something I got from a recent news article, courtesy of the Korean Central News Agency of DPRK – the mouthpiece of Kim Jong Il, ruler of North Korea. Kim Jong Il in a state of undress. This particular photo has nothing to do with this story […]

That’s right – that means HALF PRICE!!!! 50% OFF ALL LIZZARD AND LIZZY CLOTHING + SELECTED ACCESORIES!! Lizzard Cavendish (Cape Town) – […]
Health, fire and safety regulators really have taken things to the next level. I mean, the sticker stuck next to fire alarms couldn’t have changed too much over the years. But now, in 2009, they feel that Twitter, of all things, should crack a mention. Please enjoy this (third from the bottom of the list): […]
Quality. [thanks brendon]
It’s taken me a long time to be able to say his name with a straight face. I mean, COME ONE, you pronounce it like this : “SHEEYA LA-BOOF!” That is completely off the charts! I mean, honestly, it’s verging on the levels of “Clydewhite.” Anyway, whatever his name is, this one is FOR THE […]
Paul from 1800 restaurant downstairs at the Cape Royale (click that if you haven’t seen this place yet) made a call to my room on Sunday night – “Thanks for the Butlers Pizza” he said, “the staff are all feeling the vibe.” Aah, good, the 10 larges had obviously arrived! Wonderful. They’ve got a lovely […]
I thought I wrote about it before, but I can’t find the article. So anyway I’m sure I told you before about these two US journalists who were arrested in North Korea and have been sentenced to….wait for it… 12 years in a labour camp! Jeepers – how hectique is that?! You know why? Oh, […]
