FATBOY – Hyvinkää 11.10.2014
I was thrilled and anxious being aware of the fact I was gonna anticipate to my very first rockabilly festival in Rock’n’Roll Nights vol 21 in Hyvinkää city.

PRIMAL FEAR / CIRCLE II CIRCLE – Helsinki 9.10.2014
For yours truly a second dose of Primal Fear (first round was back in 2007) came recently on a Saturday evening at Helsinki’s Dante’s Highlight rock club. Add to this they were supported by Circle II Circle, who I’d never seen live previously so I was expecting a good night of high quality metal.

WATAIN – Helsinki 21.1.2014

THIS round was the first Tuska Open Air for me since 2005 and Accept then playing a reunion set with Udo Dirkschneider. A lot of water has flown under the bridge since then and the location of the festival has now been moved to other part of Helsinki, Suvilahti. The new Tuska took place amidst…

KISS – Helsinki 3.6.2013
THE lights dim, screens show four men in make-up walking from dressing room towards the stage; familiar voice shouts the legendary words: “All Right Helsinki, You Wanted The Best, You Got The Best, The Hottest Band In The World, KISS!” Curtain drops and spectacular looking stage device looking like a giant spider starts descending from…
