...France, Argentina and Portugal are not the only sides to have provided insufficient entertainment. Overshadowed by the fall of the European and South American giants was the dismal showing by the principal African challengers. Cameroon and Nigeria came into the tournament fully expecting to make the last eight, and perhaps go even further. Nigerian coach Adegboye Onigbinde and Cameroonian captain Rigobert Song each boasted that his side would fulfill, if belatedly, PelE's old prophesy that an African team would win the cup in the 20th century. Instead, both sides suffered early shocks and then exited with bad grace, Cameroon...

Saudi Arabia, a perennial qualifier, isn't a threat to Germany, but Cameroon's Indomitable Lions are another story. They are the reigning Olympic and African champions. Still, Cameroon is looking long in the tooth. The other team in this group is Ireland, which ran through the first round in '98 undefeated, and last year knocked the Netherlands out of the Cup.

Ironically , the show’s best moments received relatively lukewarm applause. In multi-instrumentalist Richard Bona and trumpter/vocalist Cuong Vu, the Group has found two brilliant artists. Hailing from Cameroon, Bona brings a lovely pure, high voice, and a lyrical, warm electric bass while Vu’s voice and horn are in equal measure poised and pristine. They blended beautifully on the chorale opening of “Another Life” and both produced restrained evocative solos that fleshed out Metheny’s soundscapes. The most tumultuous applause, however, was reserved for the bandleader himself...

...people will say, "Wait, who is this guy?" And if I have that opportunity, I could be in the media and talk over the radio. Then I can tell people that they really have to watch out, that it is serious. After the games, I will go to Cameroon and I'm hoping to be on TV.
