This Friday: Virgil & The Accelerators supporting Joanne Shaw Taylor. Two damned fine young English blues guitarists.
Tomorrow the Qstock festival in Oulu, about 100 kms south from here. http://www.qstock.fi/en/
It has started today but we go only for tomorrow. Nightwish is headlining and there are many other interesting bands as well. For example RavenEye seems to be one to check out: http://www.qstock.fi/en/artist/raveneye-uk-2/
Let is know what Nightwish are like Lauri, I’m goin to see them at Wembley Arena in December and can’t bloody wait.
The gig was good. Mainly focused on the newer material but some old songs came as well. Sound was great. Though we were only about 10 meters from the stage every instrument could be heard clearly and the ears weren’t totally deaf after the show. The band seemed to be in extremely great mood. Lots of laughing and joking on the stage.
This was my first gig seen with Floor Jansen on the vocals. She is unbeliavibly brilliant singer and performer. I’ve seen them before with Anette Olzon on vocals and this was much better. Never seen them with the original singer because I haven’t listened them before I started to date my present wife.

…and I thought I was strange. 
Fuck me - that’s a pair of thighs. It’s like Cher in her ‘Turn Back Time’ era on steroids.

HIM at Klubi, Turku on Monday evening ( http://www.klubi.net/home_eng.php )
Wife’s choice but it’ll do for me allright too. We’ll fly to Turku already tomorrow and will spend a long weekend with different activities. Turku is a very nice city on the southwest coast of Finland.

Hi Lauri,
One of my friends got married in Turku to a Turku girl the same weekend that Ruisrock was on about ten years ago. Lovely place.
