semifinal 29.3

we probably played the best show we've done at semifinal on thursday. everything stayed nearly-in-tune and nobody made many mistakes.. more good times to be expected at tvo in turku. consider this our farewell tour. it seems now that we might be having a rather drastic change in line-up at the end of april (so in effect, jyrock is the present group's last show). but we'll still keep it up i expect, towards new adventures etc.

here are some pictures from backstage.

vadelma 24.2

vadelma was good fun, even though we ended up being badly out of tune during the last half of the show, and the vocals were inaudible from start to finish. it felt more relaxed than any show we've done in the last six months, and that alone merits a good night for me (although some of the others seem to disagree).

we managed to sell most of the first batch of 50 records of the athletic burns vol.1 cd-r and now only have five left, which will most likely run out by the end of the week. if you haven't got one, you shouldn't feel too worried; we are making more of these, at least a second lot of fifty records before we move on to volume 2.

in other news, those friendly people at jyrock 2007 have booked us to play at their festival. it's all happening in jyväskylä, 20th-21st april. tickets are 24 euro for two days, and 15 for a single day. the other acts include:
