| OK, 8,000 people from your country went to welcome you home. My husband and I laughed (in amazement) and said "What percentage of his country WAS that?? That's a lot!" So we looked it up. (We're dorks that way. ) Almost 3 percent of your entire country showed up to welcome you home! LOL OK, you have about 296,000 in Iceland. Here in Houston we have about 1,900,000 people. But in the u.s. we have about 296,000,000 people. So had that been our country supporting you like your wonderful folks did, that would be 8 million people. I can't even imagine getting 8 million people (3% of the population) doing ANYTHING together!! So what's the point of this post? To say how amazed we are and thrilled that there are SO many other people who love you like my husband and I do! Bunches of love to you, your dear family, and the best of luck! We hope you're coming back to tour and showing up in Dallas where hopefully we'll get to see you (since we're going) to the combined RSSN concert.
Blessings!

| I concur. 8 million Americans united to support a musical artist? unheard of...even a sports hero wouldn't draw that large a crowd. Not even in Texas. Magni's fame is truly magnificent.

The support for Magni is amazing...but, I think honsetly, besides his great musical talents..he is in inspiration for all of us to live better and more positive lives..be nicer to others and so on...in this time and age..people with guns, drugs, and hateful messages were getting way to much media time for our kids to be exposed to...now we have a rising star with a character that we want to see in ourselves and our kids...so we all need to support him, and people like him...justathought
For those about to rock...we salute you!!
