ABBA taken aback by wild reputation
Music: September 7th, 2007 by PO
ABBA are reported to have been “horrified” when they first arrived in the United States and were expected to indulge in a wild rock’n'roll lifestyle á la Jagger and Richards.
Guitarist Mats Ronander, who toured with the group that was famous in Europe for its clean lifestyle, said that the ‘Dancing Queen’ hitmakers were surprised to be invited to a huge bash with drinks and pretty girls.
“When we landed in America for our tour, the record company there thought we would be like the Rolling Stones. They staged this huge party for everyone with loads of pretty girls and plenty of booze laid on,” Contactmusic quoted Ronander, as saying.
Ronander continues:
“Abba were horrified. It just wasn’t them. They didn’t know how to react. We were boring Swedes when we toured. There was no sex and drugs,” he added.
