We had our "hugely succesfull, once in 15 years" gig in Oulu with Blues Mäysti. Shit loads of fun... don't know if audience had but we surely did. It was fantastic to play together again. Thanks Pekka, Vesku, Jukkis, Kape, Aija, Taisto and Erkki !
Speaking of audience - there was really not too many. When we started to play the semi-final Finland against Czech in the Ice Hockey World Championship was on TV. Pretty much at the same time the Eurovision song contest finals (where Lordi won the thing finally for Finland) was going on - perfect timing for our 45 minutes ;o)
After our gig we spend some good 3 hours listening to other bands and enjoying our after glow. Visited a local Kebab place at around 3am ... one "slightly" drunken guy saw me carrying only a music stand and shouted "Hei - a roudie !" which at that time of the night and in that state of mind gave us a really good laughs.
Finally, at Aija's and Pekka home around 4am... and sweet happy dreams.
Next "gig" will be in Oulu again - 1st of July (2006, not 2021 as one might expect)in Teekkaritalo - we decided to use the celebration of all together five 40th birthdays (all taking place sometimes during last year). A worthy excuse to play again.
Random thoughts and things which would be nice to remember ... documented mainly for myself
