SECOND FINNISH (nooo we're just starting) SHOW

Sun, Jul 1, 2012 at 2:23 PM

Going to the show was like a seven-bridges (road) to an island with a football stadium on it
the home-town of Anne and Micio
they were playing a home-match
what a match they are , they had a big sign ALMOST MARRIED and John made them persons of the night "WE HAVE A WINNER"
there was an extra band member ... SHANE (he did the whole show)
this extra guitar made the big difference
the show was really TOP
we had rain and sunshine this time also
sorry , just talked to Kenny behind me writing this review passing in the lobby
James too this moment
LIVE FROM FINLAND

    I am from California and have never been there. Tell us more, won't you?

    Yes it was a great show! Big surprise with Shane "on the red guitar" The rain was a bit nasty but hey, (did John really say "I'm still dry!" at one point??
    He was really enjoying it and we were enjoying that he was enjoying it he was making jokes all the time. we love new guy Randy with slides and steel and dobro guitar and we love Bob Malone going crazy up there behind the keys!
    (and with accordeon too!) Up around the bend; John shouted "Hanoi Rocks!!" but maybe we just dreamed that???
    He turned Oulu into Oululu :-D and no, I'm not always making notes, JOhn :-) didnt write anything down all show, then wrote one thing down and the same moment John looked at us or something :-D
    We're a bit deaf now but happy and enjoying the sunset in the middle of the night :-) Tomorrow we will make the trek to Vinstra Norway and untill Denmark we'll be sleeping in a tent all night.

    I'm going to enjoy my dry and warm bed now!!

    HEY R.B.Q.
    It was my very first visit to Finland
    I always thought it was a dry country where nothing grows
    QUITE THE OPPOSITE
    it's very green , a lot of trees , lakes and SO BEAUTIFUL
    Arne (from Finland) told me the air is very clean
    as you know trees are the earth's lungs
    so save the forests , for our children's children
    Helsinki is in the south at the border of the Baltic Sea
    there are a lot of beautiful yachts and little boats
    Jarvenpaa was a lakeside festival
    Oulu is in the north at the seaside
    and it must have a history of fisherman
    there's a beautiful fisherman's wharf with old wooden cabins
    the night was so clear because of the midnight sun
    architecture of the old buildings has russian influences
