Picture of the Week LXIX

Time for some sunset action from Tel Aviv beach, but we’re not really heading there for the sunset this week. It’s all about the timing in this one…

The picture was taken by Shay Sapir, who has some very fine pics of Israel, mostly Tel Aviv street scenes, in his collection.

Champions League glory (ahem…) awaits Hapoel Tel Aviv!

OK, so a little less of the glory. Let’s just say if they grab a point and score a goal or two they’ll have done OK. Or at least better than last year’s Israeli effort, from Maccabi Haifa, who didn’t grab one single point or score one little goal.

Thursday’s draw for the Champions League groups stages, which Hapoel Tel Aviv have reached for the first time in their history, saw them draw Lyon, Benfica and Schalke. Not the biggest of the European giants they could have ended up with, but still tough, tough games.

We wish ‘em luck!

30 Seconds to Mars LIVE in Israel!

So, 30 Seconds To Mars have come and gone, another one to cross off the list. Apparently they enjoyed themselves here in the Holy Land, including stopovers at Tel Aviv beach and Jerusalem, plus a meet-up with some mighty hummus and falafel. Bless ‘em!

Here’s a clip from their show on Wednesday night, which seems to have gone down a storm, judging from the amount of videos posted on YouTube and rave reviews…

Picture of the Week LXV

This week we’re off to Tel Aviv again, with a nice shot of Tel Aviv Port, one of the most happening places in Israel at the weekend. Lots of things to see and do here, including a great little Farmer’s Market on Fridays.

The picture was taken by lev glick, a guy from somewhere in Israel with some very nice shots in his collection. You know what to do…

Ziggy Stardust live in Tel Aviv!

The legendary Pete Murphy was once again back in Tel Aviv this past week (he was here just a few months ago), launching this summer’s “Dirty Dirt Tour” in Tel Aviv — after the original opening date in Paris was canceled — and delivered a set full of crowd favorites, both Bauhaus classics, and covers of songs by Nine Inch Nails, Joy Division and David Bowie. Here he is performing Ziggy Stardust!

A Seal in Tel Aviv!

90s legend Seal has arrived in Tel Aviv (he’s scheduled to perform at the Ra’naana Amphitheatre, which is just outside Tel Aviv, tomorrow night) and he’s already loaded up a video of his Tel Aviv hotel view - and what a view!

Welcome to Tel Aviv, Seal!

War in Tel Aviv! It’s OK, it’s the 2010 Water War!

Last week saw the annual water fight in Kikar Rabin in Tel Aviv. It’s fast become an annual happening in Tel Aviv (I think it only started 4 or 5 years ago, if that) and plenty of photographers turn up. Guess that might be something to do with those wet t-shirts…Here’s a clip to give you a taste of what happened.

Rod Stewart live in Tel Aviv!

Good old Rod! I guess if his mate Elton can come here and show the world how to do it, there wasn’t much danger of him canceling Thursday night’s Tel Aviv show. Here’s a splash of Baby Jane for you…
