2008 Beijing Olympics
Tonight will kick off the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympics! Live coverage will be starting at promptly at 8:00pm (EST), and believe me when I say you should be prepared for a jaw dropping presentation unlike anything you have seen. Marking the 29th Olympiad of the new era, what exactly will be going on in the “Birds Nest”? Just as a preview, the performances at the Olympic Opening Ceremony will consist of a myriad of fireworks and explosions, fairies who give off a luminous light, percussion performances of of traditional Peking Opera, song, dance, cheer, and of course athletes from 205 Olympic Committees marching along their nations flag. There will be many other performances and attractions to help kick off the 2008 Beijing Olympics including the Beijing Military Band playing opening music, and the staple of every opening, the lighting of the Olympic Flame Cauldron. Join the world in celebration as the 2008 Olympics begin with stunning acrobatics and aerials that may even rival the ability of gold medal gymnasts!
