Tuesday June 23 rd TNT played at the iconic Marquee Club in London. “Tell No Tales” was the huge breakthrough, especially in USA where it was well received and among other achievements reached the official Top 100-list (Billboard). It contained the hit singles “Everyone’s A Star” and “10.000 Lovers (In One)”. “Tell No Tales”, TNT’s third release, came in 1987.
The song is a classic and is considered to be close to a “national anthem” among rock fans. TNT got a hit with the video of “Seven Seas”. The history says that Gary Barden, an English singer and songwriter (mostly known for his work with the Michael Schenker Group) was on his way out the door with his flight-ticket in one hand and the suitcase in the other, when Diesel Dahl and TNT cancelled the trip. Dag Ingebrigtsen had of course the original vocal, but he decided to leave the band for the sake of his family and to pursue other projects. Steinar Eikum chose to quit the band, and Morten Skaget, under the artist name Morty Black, became the new bass player.
TNT decided to sing in English for the sequel: “Knights Of the New Thunder”. The album has treasures like “USA”, “Eddie” and “Harley-Davidson”. The album is a classic among fans and critics in the music- and culture-media. The album was released in 1983 probably in the end of February when the album hit the VG-lista (VG, National newspaper with the official music chart list every week) in the beginning of March, and got lot of attention because it was in Norwegian. Now it is summer, more precisely 2 nd of June 1982, and TNT has now it’s official birthday. Ingebrigtsen conducts several auditions with several different guitarists before he finds Ronni Le Tekrø. Diesel Dahl joined in and after a while, Steinar Eikum and his bass is a part of it. Maio, Barbara Between Past and Future: Hybrid Design Style on' Firefly' and 'Serenity' 17.The year is 1982.

FIREFLY BALLAD OF JANE TV
It is written by over 20 of the best US and international Whedon scholars, tv and film critics and writers. It is ambitious, in-depth and comprehensive, covering all aspects, from detailed chapters on scenes and themes, through explorations of the music, the characters, actors and fans. But this premature burial had an extraordinary outcome: the fans - self-named Browncoats - just kept multiplying, buying the dvds, keeping the show alive with blogs, fan fiction, podcasts, their own films, meetings, conferences their numbers increased when the major Firefly motion picture 'Serenity' was released in 2005.This book is the definitive one on both "Firefly" and "Serenity". "Firefly" ran for twelve hour-long episodes in 2002 before being cancelled by the network. Joss Whedon, probably the first recognised TV auteur, who brought us Buffy and Angel, is also the creator of the remarkable space Western "Firefly" and the major Firefly film "Serenity".
