Not that way anymore..

Where has the year gone? It's just over, and next becomes. If you believe in that Maya -thing (which is not even true, Mayas made a calendar for 6000 years, and I think after that the writer needed a long holiday...) the end of the world should come next year which means that this is the last New Year.
So happy New Year!
If this really is the last one, I have suddenly million things to do. Like ordering candy from Sweden, visiting at Jim Morrisons grave in Paris, seeing Alice Cooper live, buying the bass and acoustic guitar, learning to play mouth organ and sending stupid (or clever) question to Dr. Ozzy.

Ya know, I don't even remember anything from this year. What the hell even happened in 2011?!
Well, I had to spend a week on confirmation camp, and I spent all the present money on albums. Almost. I bought some DVDs too and few clothes but most of the money went on music. As you could maybe quess.
I saw Michael Monroe live. I could have seen him actually four times, but 'cause of that confirmation camp and party I missed Provinssirock and Foo Fighters' gig in Helsinki.. damn. Last summer was the summer of bands that performed in Finland but which I couldn't see. Like Linkin Park, koRn, Pelle Miljoona Oy, Avenged Sevenfold and so on.
Also internationally, I noticed something was going on. Osama bin Laden was killed. USA took forces out from Iraq. War is over, or is it? The earth quacke, tsunami and nuclear accident in Japan. Uprisings in Libya and in many other Arabic countries. Riots in London. The year has been totally crazy. Full of revolution, everywhere.

I know that next year's gonna be thousand times better. First, in april, Guns N' Roses reunion gig at Rock N' Roll hall of fame Awards, The the Black Sabbath gig in 23rd of May (I sould be in Berlin at that moment with my class.. dream on, teacher.) Then I've got tickets to Mötley Crüe's gig in the beginning of June, and I still don't know how to cope with that. And after school's end, I'm free. I don't have to return to school in autumn, which is actually quite cool. London, here I come!

But let's not get too far away to future. In case of the end of the world and last new year, I'm gonna really seize the opportunity and party all by myself; eat grill -flavour chips and chocolate too much, be awake days with no sleep, drink 100 times too strong tea, lay on the sofa and, of course, watch Iron Man, Iron Man 2 and Sherlock Holmes. Again. Last time I saw the films was.. today. And in X -mas. A week ago. Nevermind, I'm gonna watch the films again.
My way to enjoy of coming doom: good looking men in action films with AC/DC played backround.

Merry Christmas, I don't want to fight tonight

Here. In Finland. In the dark. Without snow. In the middle of this.. nothing. It's X -mas anyway, so merry christmas to all you freaks and wrecks somewhere there.

For some reason, I don't have any kind of X -mas feeling this year. Actually, the reason for celebrate some guy who died over 2000 years ago is funny. Stupid tradition. Of course I like the time of love and light and peace, it's like the whole world would stop its rush for a while. Or then it's just thought in my head, which media has grown there. Is it really that easy to fool nations to stop wars for a day?

This christmas is quite sad. I don't know why, I feel lonely. I haven't met my friends for two days.. no, on summer holiday I could be a week without seeing anyone. Maybe it's the format. Christmas should be the celebration of love and everyone's supposed to be happy. And 'cause I'm not, it makes me feel even more shit. Just this place makes me nuts. " I can't be happy here, I gotta get out " has been playing in my head last months.. or years. I've never been so happy here. Of course it's safe and peaceful to live in small town but does that make anyone happy? The society in Finland makes all people living safely anf peacefully, so it's nothing to admire or dream about. It's like the order.
I don't want to live like that. Now I'm locked to this place and this society, to Finland. I don't want to be locked to this system, 'cause it doesn't make me happy. I want to live. Now I'm in cage, actually we all are, but some people just can't see the bars or walls around us. Their way to look this world is too narrow. So, the cage of the society and this place is just fine for them. They think it's safe, it's alright.
But me.. it makes me feel anguished, stressed, crazy. Locked. Not happy. I need to go my own way, do the things as I want, (even against others), I need to break the chains and get out of here. 'cause otherwise I'll go crazy. I'll die. I need to live in danger t understand what means to be safe. That's the deal. But then I'm happy. I know it.
So if christmas is time of happines, is it time of danger, adventure, going crazy? Doing mad things, sleeping days and running out at night? Is the Christmas the time of life? Could it be?

Don't mind my sadness, with the photos I want to wish a very nice and great and lovely and good X -mas for everyone, with light and love in your life and peaceful time with no fighting and.. what the fuck I'm writing like an old hippie?

Happy sexmas for you suckers and crappy New Year!!

The girl with the dregen tattoo..

First, thnx for comments.. Sorry I haven't got any time to write here, I lost my camera and finally found it again, and blogger doesn't like to work with me; I can't write comments with my profile, or last time when I tried it didn't work.. anyway, I'm not on X -mas mood at all. Fuck the whole thing, I just don't give a shit right now. I'm not depressed, no, and I'm happy about holiday and so on.. I just don't feel like X -mas.

I wished books, albums, clothes and swedish candies for X -mas present. And acoustic bass and Les Paul. Ain't it gonna be cheap? New Mp3 would be great, new phone, new camera.. new camera that would work with no problem even for a one minute! It's hard to have a blog without a camera, Jesus. ( Hoping that new SLR camera would drop to my head from the sky)..
On holiday.. I've got a lot to do. Actually, a lot to watch. First Girl with the dragon tattoo.. it's on top of my must-see list! I think I'd be more that girl with Dregen -tattoo. Of course dragons are nice too, but I just think that chasing the Dregen would be more safe.
That new Sherlock Holmes.. hell yeah! I love Robert Downey Jr, I bought Iron Man yesterday so I could watch it again too. And I wanna watch all the James Dean movies too, it's been a long time since I've seen the rebel thing last time. And then holiday is over, and I've got 10 kg more weight, I've just been watching TV and eating chips and candy... XD

But now at last, I'm gonna put here some new photos.. (damn I need a new camera!)

My new Led Zeppelin -shirt <3 First thing I did: I cut the sleeves off.  

Have ya seen these either? My new black & white Razzle top ( Razzle used to wear yellow-black top with zebra print, so zebra print = Razzle), and that top I bought at Finlandia club..

I know, I look tired. I'm sorry for that. I could go to sleep right away.

Now those new clothes.. Actually, they're not so new anymore but 'coz my camera decided to try suicide, I couldn't put any pic I had taken myself here. But, anyway, Red "leather" pants I bought from Tampere Gina Tricot, (yeah, 4th of November)

Black jeans and GN'R shirt (when the old ones are too broken to use) from H&M  

Electric blue bleiser from H&M

I really love that color, but I could change the fabric of the inside of sleeves, 'coz it's actually balck flowers on white base.. I'm not really flower person, I like them only if they're dramatic enough or somehow oriental styled. ♥

Ya know, I believe that my guitar's amplifier is actually a hedgedog. No, I'm not on blow or anything, I just think so, 'coz it's really that small:

Marshall's amplifier's great, really, it's so small and cute but the voice (or noise) can be fucking loud if ya want to. And, distortion and the clean sound are both in the same, and with the clear difference, don't need to buy another one for distortion. (8 

Halle- fucking -lujah!!! Not fakin' it came yesterday with post!! <3<3 I don't know what's wrong with the pic, it's wrong way now O_O I listened the album through yesterday about  six or seven or Idon'tknowhowmany times, it's just great. And Nasty Suicide and Sami Yaffa make it just better. Actually, Michael Monroe and Nasty Suicide have written "Dead, Jail or Rock N' Roll". Sad that Nasty became a pharmasist and he doesn't tour or play regularly anymore, nowadays he looks little bit like Duff McKagan with his blond hair.. (:

And for those blues jamming days, I bought a X -mas present for myself when I was buying presents for others yesterday. Truth by Jeff Beck <3 I didn't even know that it's available in TopTen but I found it from sale.. And his band is cool. Rod Steward singing and Ronnie Wood on bass ♥

So, my holiday's gonna be watching films and listening to music, how's yours?

And, happy X -mas time for everyone! <3

This one's for rock n' roll

Yep, I've made few changes in the blog, and I hope you like 'em. I had huge problem with last post, I wrote it last Friday, but then my computer shut down and I didn't know had I post it to my blog or not. Obviously it hadn't downloaded the post, so I had to write it again, but now it's here..

I changed the name of the blog, 'cause I think the new one is more.. you know, it includes more stuff. Punkrock is just that, but, rock n' roll includes all which matters in my life. I can write about glamrock or classic rock or anything now.. And I don't have o worry about some punkrocker, who finds my blog by the name and expects something soooo different.  Yeah yeah, you get bored with my excuses. But please, tell your opinions about new style (:

I read Helsingin Sanomat this morning and guess what; Mötley Crüe will come to Finland next summer! The concert is in Kaisaniemi, on 7th of June, and there will play other bands too, like Crashdïet and one other band, which is not know yet. Anyway, tix are about 60€..
*I'm trying to say that I'm maybe going there, would someone come too?*
Well yeah, I know, Mötley Crüe includes that one ass hole, as known by the name motherf*ckin idiot or Vince Neil, and I can't go to the show expecting that I don't have to see Neil at all. But I have a plan. I'll stare Nikki Sixx all the show. Or I'd really like to throw Vince Neil with Jaffa bottle. Or I'll make up something more clever, like Razzle T-shirt.

But anyway, here's the new blog style. I gotta go now, so bye for a while <3

Razzle Dazzle

December 9th in 1984 was one of the sad days of rock n' roll history. Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley, known as drum player of Hanoi Rocks, died in car crash in Lost Angeles, when he went to buy more booze with Vince Neil to Vince's house party. Both were drunk, the speed was over 100km/h in the area of 40km/h. They curved to the wrong side of the road, and there was car coming towards them. They were so close of Vince's home, and people from the party ran to see what had happened. They found Vince Neil crying hysterically with beer bottle in his hand and Razzle lying next to him, repeating "everything is alright, everything is alright.." Razzle was taken to hospital, were was told that he was dead.
Andy McCoy, who was in the party, called to Seppo Vesterinen, who called to others and told terrible news. Shock was biggest for Nasty Suicide, whose best friend Razzle had been. Razzle was also close with Michael and Andy, even though those two had fights almost all the time. Razzle was friend with everybody, like glue which held the band together. Bob Ezrin has said: " Razzle was the sweetest person of Hanoi Rocks. I can never forgive Vince Neil that he was driving the car. "

Razzle got mad with Deep Purple's singer once in the bar, 'cause guy had "taken his girl". So Razzle set the singers hair on fire. Sweet sweet revenge.

Razzle was buried to graveyard of Holy Trinity Cruch in Binstead, Isle of Wight. The lawyers in Los Angeles told to Michael and Andy about the chance to get money that they lost when they couldn't have a tour or make new albums, if they call Mötley Crüe to court. Andy didn't want to, 'cause he couldn't think his firend as money. Or could you say how much does your family cost?

Hairspray keeps man on the road..

In Japan 1984

Razzle had said, that he wanted to die like James Dean. Famous actor, who became a legend when he died in car crash in 1955, when he was only 24 years old. Razzle had had his 24th birthday just week before the accident.
You should be careful with what you wish, 'cause sometimes your wishes can really come true.

R.I.P Razzle

Dec. 2nd 1960 - Dec. 9th 1984

Hanoi Rocks played in Europe a Go Go concert on 4th of January 1985, just three weeks after Razzle's death, and deticated "Million Miles Away" to Razzle. In that time Europe a Go Go  was the biggest music perform in TV, and about 300 million people saw the show. In loving memory of Razzle.

Snowed in at the Wheeler's Street

Hello to all of you who got lost in the web and somehow ended up in my blog ♥  Accidents are sometimes the best what can happen in your life, remember that.

This time has been.. rushing aroud all the time. I haven't bought any X -mas presents yet.. I need to go shopping, I suppose. Independence Day is nice one more day off from school in December, but I hate to ad in magazines how every stars (especially all who live/lived before abroad) are telling how they watch "Tuntematon Sotilas" or listen to Finlandia on each 6th of December. 'Cause the reality is, they don't give a fuck about Independence Day, I can say that by the experience. I don't care about it. Of course it's nice that Finland isn't part of Russia or something but still, nevermind. Here's nothing to be proud of. Sorry all you Finland -fans, I just got to say that.

I heard horrible news about.. two weeks ago. Slash wrote in Twitter that the film director Ken Russell had died. I didn't think that he would lie or anything but that wasn't written in any magazine. So today, when I read Helsingin Sanomat, there was told, that Ken Russel had died on 27th of November. Slash was right. I man, of course, he had heard to news so much before.. News seem to go slowly accross the Atlantic ocean. Anyway, R.I.P Ken Russell.

Yeah, it's snowing here. It snowed when I walked home from school, and snow flakes were huge. Seriously, about 5-7 cm, like little plates : 3
Cute, but they got my hair wet. It's curly now. Damn. Where's my flat iron?

I'm a snow dictator and this is my army >: )

By the way, sign this please: http://www.wwf.se/merfisk

To save the fish of Baltic Sea and stop overfishing from there. Thnx (:

This became quite short post, 'cause I really don't have time to write any longer. I'll try to get more freetime to write here more, I promise. At last at X -mas, I'll write more. But for now, bye. <3

Dysfunctional professional

Time goes by.. I was yesterday in Vaasa, shopping with my friends. I love to collect mugs, now I have Mötley Crüe mug too. And I'm always wonderin why my mom's friends look at me weird if they are at our house and I have set the table and made coffee..

Anyway, actually I decided to make a post 'cause I've bought so much new albums (and waiting still few for coming).. First, I've been waiting that Andy McCoy's Building on Tradition to TopTen from August. I ordered that album to there, and yesterday the sales clerk said it's not coming at all. Same answer about Dead Boys' album too. I gotta order them from somewhere else. Fuck, I waited almost half year for nothing.

But let that not to depress us too much.
'Cause even if you don't have enough money for food, you have always money for buying few albums. And I your house's on fire, save the most important (=albums) first. That's my aphorism of life.

From upper line, left to right:

Def Leppard: Pyromania (great 80's sound, from levykauppa Äx)

Backyard Babies: Them XX (that was fn' collection, which I didn't notice on time.. but it's good, better that I thought. From levykauppa Äx)

The Doors: The Doors (I love that.. from Levykauppa Äx)

Down:

Mötley Crue: Dr. Feelgood (from levykauppa Äx)

Michael Monroe: Another night in the sun (from TopTen, that's the first live album I've ever bought on perpous.. Recorded at Tavastia in 2010)

Look what I found today! We were meeting our granny and we stopped in Seinäjoki Anttila.. And there was T. Rex Rocks! collection with only 5€ ! Sad that Marc Bolan died in 1977, I'd like to see this band live.. (as well as Led Zeppelin, original GN'R etc.)

Well yeah, that kind of stuff this time. This became quite short but anyways.. bye <3

I've visited in heaven..

Yep, I have, believe it or not. That gig was the best I've ever seen before, and think, I've seen such bands like U2.. still club gigs are totally different. Ya know, in big shows where's about 50 000 people, that band is always so..distant. Like the band would be in another place at the same time. That makes the show boring, 'cause the feeling is missing.

But on Friday the feeling really wasn't missing. In Finlandia Klubi was about 600 people, who all had huge hair.. The show started a bit late 'cause they had some problem with mikes, so they started about half past nine.
We were sometimes in the first, sometime in the second line, but anyway so freakin close of the guys on stage. That was amazing. I knew already before the gig that Michael Monroe is good live, but I couldn't have believed that he would.. I don't how to say it. He was amazing. All the time running and jumping around, but you couldn't hear that from his voice at all. He sang everything perfectly (although he forgot to start few times singing in the right place, so he dropped some lines away..). And the rest of the band.. Sami Yaffa was fuckin cool as always, Steve Conte played good too (he winked me once!) and Dregen.. ya know Swedish Backyard Babies? The guitaris of that band plays with Michael Monroe nowadays and he suits to that group perfectly. They couldn't have chose any better guitarist to that band, Dregen was great choice. I love those guys so much ♥
About the music.. they didn't play loud at all, actually the volume level was good. They played mostly Sensory Overdrive songs but of course few Hanoi songs: Back to mystery City, Malibu beach nightmare (Michael really can play sax very well <3) and Motorvatin' (Sami's bass intro... ya should have seen it!)   And, of course they ended the show with Dead, Jail or Rock N' Roll.. and then came encore, three songs.. Then that was over. But that feeling is still on, I've fallen in love <3 I've never seen such intensive gig, that was full of speed and dangerous situations. And I loved that.
The best things of the show were of course that when Sami smiled at me, Michael pointed me when he sang Back to Mystery City's second verse: Hey little girl, you'll love it there, just backcomb your hair, let's get outta here.. <3 And... in the end of the show, when Michael came down from stage I touched his arm..<3 Actually I touched him twice.. All guys were fuckin sweaty, Dregen looked like someone had pour water on him.. Well, there was hot. Really. Best gig ever, I wanna go back there.

Think, I took this without zoom.. I really was that close of Michael Monroe. <3 

Yeah. I don't know what else to say. Actually I can't really talk, 'cause I lost my voice partly and my back and chest are so hurt that I can hardly breathe deep. But I don't complain, that's my own fault XD

But some pics of the guys.. <3

Dregen, guitarist of Backyard Babies (one of two good swedish bands, other is The Hives but Backyard Babies is 100 times better)

Michael and Sam

Sami Yaffa

Michael Monroe in some The Voice interview..  

I had long time a fobia of everything Finnish music, 'cause I adjusted that it's shit. Ya know, The Rasmus, HIM, Nightwish etc, I've never liked them. Especially I've always hated all those bands which make music in Finnish language. I just couldn't stand that, and I still can't. Finnish is ugly language, and usually it's so easy to regonize Finnish song (even though it's in English) 'cause it has no feelings, and there's no attitude. Finnish rockbands usually don't have any rock attitude. That's why I can't stand that music, it's like... ya know, wannabe. And I don't admire any Finnish rock stars.. But Michael, Sam and Andy are the only exceptions. <3

( I meant to put here one of the videos I took from the show, but my computer couldn't download them here, and that fuckin shit machine shut down and it took an hour to switch it on again.. so sorry for that I don't have any music/moving picture here this time)

Sorry I gotta go (after I've tried to write this 5 hours).. If I could download this post now to my blog.. anyway, see ya soon again <3

Wanna whole lotta love?

Oh my, a new reader! Fantastic! Should I say "welcome" or something? I hope you'll like my weird posts and this wouldn't get too boring, ya know.. so, welcome now officially. :3

OK, it's now morning about 8 am when I'm writing this and eating candy. Actually a lollipop. I thought it would me nice to do a post before we'll leave for Lahti between 9 and 10.. I could hardly sleep last night, even though I've been to few concerts before this (OK, this is my first club concert, and I'm kinda afraid of I'm gonna screw the thing up, 'cause I have really no idea how to be there)..
Go to check that if you have time:  http://www.finlandia-klubi.fi/fi/keikat/

I was shopping in Vaasa on wednesday, and I bought everything important.. Why everything ends the when you need them most? Like my eye-liner, mascara, foundation..

At last I've good waterproof mascara..

fucking expensive Lancome foundation, but it lasts long and covers well. I've used it long time and it has never let me down.. yet.

Then jewellery; ring from JC and bracelets from Glitter...

And I found Janis Joplin's collection from TopTen. Usually I hate collections but now I had to buy one, it's difficult to find Pearl or other Janis' albums from anywhere anymore, they're that old (unfortunately).. 

Now I think everything is fine. Tomorrow is my daddy's birthday at one pub, so I need to go there when we return from Lahti.. again a weekend with no sleep. I did yesterday three playlists for the party, two rock lists and one disco.. I think my dad I quite proud of my music taste, we fought about 15 minutes of is Led Zeppelin's Whole Lotta Love too "long and difficult to understand" for that kind of situation. If you ask from me, Iove that song. Best blowin song ever, don't sleep for week and then listen to it. You'll go as mad as I already am.

Rock like F*CK!!

I'm really on rock mood now, I've listened to music all evening (as usual but just jumping around and singing along).. Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. The Doors. And Velvet Revolver. You can start with those. And then continue to GN'R, Hanoi Rocks and  Andy McCoy. Aerosmith. AC/DC. Michael Monroe. And then whole thing again. It's hard to even be sitting at computer and writing this, I'd like to be jamming around.. It's life.

I don't remember when I have posted photos of myself last time.. sorry for that, but I just don't usually like any pic that's taken of me. Ya know, I take about 50 photos, and then post 3 or 4..  but anyway, here are few new photos:

I decided to play decorator for one day, 'cause I needed new drapes into my room..

And I think you can guess which ones I made my mom buy for me.

You can also see few posters on my walls..

I think this was all, not as much writing as sometimes.. well, good for you. I haven't bought that new Michael Monroe book YET, but believe me, it will be mine some day.  

I wanted to put here one song, but I couldn't find good video from it (most of them were forbidden in Finland 'cause of credits or something like that.) but the lyrics is great too. I can say, I'm not revolting against society, I'm just doing things as I want to. That's my style of living, take it or leave it.  

When I was a kid all I wanted to be
Was the meanest dude on the meanest machine
Now I'm going to wrong way on a one-way street
I never fit this society

I don't really mind
Doing my own time
The three choices I ever came to find
Were: Dead, Jail or Rock'n'Roll

I ain't looking for trouble but it's looking for me
The law of the jungle is protecting me
Lose sleep man stay out of your bed
You might wind up in jail if you lose your head

In death I might find
True peace of mind
But while I'm alive
Free choice is mine
It's either: Dead, Jail or Rock'n'Roll

 

Class trip(ping)

Today begins our class' eco weekend at school (we're collecting money for our classtrip..) We collect waste metal, we have flea market and coffeestore, and playing place for children. And believe me, it's not gonna work. Or if we get  money for organizing it, credits for me and the Fish. We want to travel to Helsinki, but I think our school's principal is gonna ruin that plan, if she only can. People are evil.

This post will be so short, 'cause we have chemistry lesson in computer class right now. Sorry for that. Guys are talking about penguins. I like that :3

I'd like to write a little about trusting and respection. I think those things have to always be earned. I just can't trust or respect authorities only because they are authorities. It's not fair. I respect people who deserve it, who have somehow shown me that they really worth my respection and trusting. There are only few people in the whole world who I trust to (my friends)  and I can't imagine myself explaining my personal things to authorities, like some tax officer or someone. I don't respect authorities automatically, 'cause I've noticed, that most of them are just normal people. Usually idiots/racists/normal Finnish people. And I'm fed up with people who are staring at me.

As you know I'm Alice Cooper fan, and I found out Alice's fans are officially called "Sick Things". Now I am officially the Sick Thing. Now I gotta stop, sorry. Bye <3

Welcome to my nightmare.. of music.

First of all, my "must have" wishlist of albums includes 44 albums as LP or CD, how ever. And of those 44 only 11 have been made after year 2000. And that list isn't perfect,  few bands are missing from it.

Anyway, that isn't the thing. This is:
Coldplay released new album this week. It menat to save the guitar rock of 21st century. I understand the pressure, but album got bad reviews from every magazine. The album repeat itself, songs are copies from old Coldplay hits, there's a duet with Rihanna.. Some journalist asked if  Coldplay really is that bad as the haters of the band say. Oh yeah, the band was saving the rock music. 
Metallica made new album too, this tim with Lou Reed. Even Metallica fans say that the band hasn't made good album for 20 years, and Lou Reed.. well, belongs not to this century, sorry. And what was the album like? Even Radio Rock didn't want to play the single, neither any other radio station. People laughed at it, and no wonder. I say "fuck that shit, I've always hated Metallica and that's ridiculous. Sounds like some old dude speaking on the tape which has been taken when every Metallica dudes have had horrible hangover." 

Rockbands mess themselves all their stuff, and they who don't.. somebody comes and rapes their music. And with "somebody" I mean pop. Lady Gaga wants to sing in Queen (in loving memory of Freddie Mercury.. as she says), wants to make duet with KISS.. She has told how Mötley Crüe is amazing, how she loves Green day.. you know.

Or they do it from their own will, like Alice Cooper... You know I love him so much, I really do, but a duet with Ke$ha? Has he gone mad? There's nothing bad in golf and Jesus anymore, if he will stop writing bullshit. I wish that Nightmare 2 was only a joke, but still.. Ke$ha in Alice Cooper's show?! I don't know, should I laugh or cry. But well, Cooper has made music over 40 years, so he wants to do something crazy, nobody can really say no.   

Piratism is one thing that I really hate. Are people really that stupid that they don't realize where the musicians get money from? Like some Spotify.. I understand, I listen some albums I don't have yet from there, but if the album is good I'll buy it. It's unfair for songwriters, that they don't get money from their work. I can proudly say that I haven't ever downloaded anything illeagally from the net, I mean albums or movies.   

Last two albums I've bought:

Kate Bush: Lionheart

Michael Monroe: Nights are so long

Somebody asked me why do I buy that much albums 'cause I could listen to them free, and I said I feel like I'm not real fan then. If I didn't buy my favorite band's album which cost 7€, I'd think I'm freaking selfish or  just Unckle Scrooge..

But there is something good in album business too. I told you about this before, but now I got the pics:

Ain't it great idea? Every music freak - eco people (like me) would absolutely buy more that kind of albums..  but I haven't ever seen any other album like that, only that one Clash..

please comment, I wanna know are you as freaked out about rock music's situation as I am 8)

Michael Monroe ~ Dead, Jail or Rock N' Roll

Gabba gabba hey!

Sorry for the break, (OK; this will become a mantra soon..) but Blogger hasn't agreed working with me. This week has been vacation from school, then next week we have that ECOweekend, what's organized for collecting money for our class. Tomorrow I'm going to Vaasa with my friend to buy jewellery (necklace & rings) and birthday present for my dad (he meets 50).. and after two weeks I'll be in Lahti <3 I have obsession, I know, sorry for that.

But I was shopping yesterday too.. I found the cutest lip balms ever, didn't I?

about 6 € from Seppälä. <3

And then, the shirt which I could kill for.. seriously. I had to borrow money from my little sister so I could buy it. But now, he is mine ♥

Slash shirt from Carlings cost 39,90 €

Slash has been my favorite rockstar about 6 years, as long as I've listened to GN'R so from when I was 9 years old. And I've never had Slash shirt before, but now I do. He's mine, mine, mine <3<3<3

Do you remember Hullabaloo,
Upbeat, Shinding and Ed Sullivan too?
Do you remember rock'n'roll radio?
Do you remember rock'n'roll radio?

Do you remember Murray the K,
Alan Freed, and high energy?
It's the end, the end of the 70's
It's the end, the end of the century

Do you remember lying in bed
With your covers pulled up over your head?
Radio playin' so no one can see
We need change, we need it fast
Before rock's just part of the past
'Cause lately it all sounds the same to me

 Will you remember Jerry Lee,
John Lennon, T. Rex and OI Moulty?
It's the end, the end of the 70's
It's the end, the end of the century

Ramones ~ Do you remember Rock N' Roll Radio?

Working class.. hero?

Fail. Fail. Fail. Ya know, this is the top of going crazy with every ordinary thing; make your hair in the morning, put makeup on, choose clothes, drink coffee and ask your daddy to bring you to work practise TET to Vaasa. Sounds easy. Well, it isn't. My hair just doesn't look good, I have lost my eye-liner, I don't know where are my black jeans, I drink three 3 dl mugs of coffee once, and my dad must go to work earlier so me and the Fish were hanging around Vaasa over than hour, when temperature was +2 degrees outside. Life's hard. Or I'm just a freak.  

Anyway, this week is TET week. And I feel already, *in Monday evening* that I could stay at home tomorrow. My anckles and legs are hurting for walking around places all the time and I've drunk 7 cups of coffee but I feel tired. But it's fun to be somewhere else than at school, and do something different. I'd like to work at TopTen ya know, I know the place better than my pockets, I suppose.. This week is gonna be alright, but next.. I don't wanna go back to school. You'd know, if you're there a day you'll never want to come back. In case you can get out from there.

I try to make myself positive by thinking only 4 weeks and 4 days to Michael Monroe's show in Lahti.. <3 Sorry for all the writing mistakes by the way, I slept three hours last night and I still have stuff to do..  I have to stop now, this became quite like a mini-post, but I have still one questionfor you:
do ya know who's the fucking coolest guy in the world?

Andy of course. ♥ 

Genre by Genre #6

First, thanx of telling that blog's font sucks! Sorry for that, I just liked it myself. But maybe it was anyway time for change, I haven't changed anything for damn long time.. XD

I thought that it would also be time for write about music.. now, I could write about pop.

Well yeah, it's maybe hard to believe that listen to some freakin NRJ, but  sometimes it's funny to know what songs are most popular next month.. Ya know, especially in pop genre nowadays, one song is a hit for.. about few weeks, then it's out and next song comes on sell. All is about business, not about music. And, you can eeasily hear, that same dude has made songs for Katy Perry, Rihanna, Ke$ha and Lady Gaga. Seriously, they don't write songs themselves. I think it's sad, 'cause now young people don't respect real songwriter musicians anymore.  Same is with computers. Young people know that you can easily make any sound with computer, so they don't respect for example guitar players anymore. They almost laugh, that why should someone practise 20 years to be the best guitarist, when you can make same solo with computer in half hour? I think that's crazy..

Pop has it's bad sides but there is pop music that I like. Michael Jackson was amazing dancer, he wrote all songs himself, and he was first wo mixed soul, funk and pop that well together. He made his own pop genre. Actually, I think my favorite pop music really is from 80's. Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, Kate Bush... all from 80's.

In David Bowie's and Peter Gabriel's music I love the experiments.. their music was like lab, they tested everything new. Best examples are Bowie's songs like "Scary Monsters" or "Under Pressure" whitch was made with Queen. I think "Radio Gaga" by Queen really is one of the cutest pop songs ever.

And about Kate Bush.. I don't know what to write. She was found by one Pink Floyd guy, so her music is influenced by progressive rock. Anyway, she is genious. Many of her songs have been originally her poems, she just created music and melody around it. " Hounds of Love" is most pop of her albums, so I call her now pop artist, even really her music is closer to alternative. By the way, she's one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

Classical 80's pop song by Kate Bush, "Running up that Hill (Deal with God)"

Kate Bush: Babooshka (1980)

Not so good photo.. anyway, David Bowie: Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)

Would this be played from NRJ?  

Life's a piece of shit, sang Eric Idle, and he was right.

Sorry again for the break of writing, but honestly, now I've really got hands full of work or at least everything that I should have done. I've spent my time by playing piano for becoming music school's test and reading books of Mika Waltari for our Finnish lessons at normal school.

Well, I should start of that autumn is here. Damn. I can't stand storms and rainy days or wet weather any way. That makes my hair horrible and then I feel crab all day. Could I blame Jesus, if he's on charge of these weather things...?

Now I'm officially keepin art club for 7-9 years old kids. It's some church thing but it's alright, we don't talk about god there. And it's funny to spend time with little kids, and get money from it  >8)
Anyway, that will my freetime away so much, 'cause I think we have to plan more artworks there.. you know, they make everything so quickly, don't really spend time on anything too much. We have many great plans of the artworks, one is gonna be pop art Winnie the Pooh (or some disney dude anyway).. can't wait to get to explain about Andy Warhol for them.. then when they come to secondary school they already´know so much about art, thanks to me and the Fish >: D

Now about my musical.. problem? I hate clubs, where's alcohol selling without limits. That means, under 18 years old people can't go in. And that sucks. You know, on 17th of this month, Andy McCoy was playin at Rytmikorjaamo in Seinäjoki. And tickets were only 12 €! I was almost buying tickets there, but then some idiot told me that it's forbidden from minor. And I still have to wait for two and half fuckin years to get there. Or to see Andy live, he usually doesn't tour in "childrens" clubs or neither big festivals like Provinssirock. But maybe with Michael some day..? It's good to live on hope.

Now something happier; I heard that Michael Monroe has show in Lahti in Finlandia club on 4th of November!! It's allowed for minor (think!) and guess who's going there with her friend? <3 Tickets cost only 23 €, and I'm going crazy soon.. can't wait 'till November ♥ I love him I love him I love him.. And Sami Yaffa and Dregen play in Michael Monroe Band nowadays too.. ♥

Umm... what else? I was yesterday in Vaasa celebratin my friend's birthday, and I bought black "leather" pants from Gina Tricot. I usually never buy anything from there.. miracle has happened. I'll put here pictures when my camera starts to work again, I promise. Now I think I'll stop writing, and go to choose clothing for school photographing, which is tomorrow.

Drowings at night?

Yeah I drew these last week.. you know, when I have the right motivation to do something, then I'll do it fucking well.. and I can't go to sleep if I start something, I have to do it 'till it's ready or I like it myself.. many drowings have flown to trash can...  

Mick Jagger, I drew it few days ago.. from the computer screen it looks more bright than what it really is, but it's fine like that too I think. or I should have used darker pencil..

You know who? Failed Michael Monroe. He had originally left hand, but it failed and I cut it off. But I had already draw it 5 hours and it was about half past eleven at night so I couldn't throw it away. Thank god I didn't; it was better than I remembered..

And now that jungle-rhythm I've had obsession last two weeks about:

Listen to that rhythm and riff in the beginning, it's hypnotic. I love it, love it, love it. I love every song with jungle rhythm, like part of Guns N' Roses' Welcome to the Jungle.. actually I don't know others.. do ya?

School's out!

Hey you dears ♥ Now I can say I'm almost happy of surviving this week through.. First, I needed to start one music instrument presentation, then one music genre presentation for school and one band presentation for school. Then, I was at meeting of club leaders, we have education tomorrow all day. -.-''
I realized that I actually like drowing, 'cause I'm not that bad as a drower as I remembered...

Today, I asked for work practise place from TopTen and got it ♥ And of course, I can't leave that store without bying something...

Michael Monroe: Peace of Mind

cost only 5€, and I couldn't live my baby there alone.. ♥

And Alice Cooper T-shirt. ALICE COOPER T-SHIRT! Which cost only 10€! Think, damn!

NOW I'm seriously really happy ♥ I love Alice Cooper, I have actually liked him since I was 5 years old and Poison was played from Radio Nova.. best song that has ever come from that radio channel. He is cool! And I love his make-up and his top hats.. < 3

OK, not so long post but I think everything important came out. As you can maybe notice.. see ya.  

PS. Can some of you tell me where to buy top hats?! I've tried to find one, but I can't.. I searched eBay, huuto.net etc, and I haven't found any.. so, if you can help, please comment!

Welcome to the Jungle..

Sorry sorry SORRY dear ones for the writing break! I didn't mean it, but it just got longer and longer... damn. Sorry once again. And you know, it's hard to know what to write about, when nothing is happening in your life.

So anyway, school's started. Last year, the I could say that I'm free on some level. Yeah, one year left, thank god no more. I couldn't stand it.
And I started to work as Greenpeace volunteer, translating texts from English to Finnish. And what else..? I found Fair Trade Coke from one grocery store, ain't it cool? WE were selling cakes for our Germany trip with class, I don't even know do I really wanna go to Berlin anymore. Not like that...
I haven't bought CD's for a while, which is a miracle. Or actually I have, The Clash's album "The Clash" which is packed 100% carbon neutral. I like that, why there can't be more that kind of albums sold?

I found also a real GOD of photographing, take a look: http://www.flickriver.com/photos/nsixxfoto/ You know who is he? I hope ya do.. Maybe one of my principals is that I can't ever like Mötley Crüe, but I didn't say a word of Nikki Sixx..I really love his photos and that color world... I want black and white camera too.. (or I could steal his camera) ♥

One my way to school I noticed that lovely old building.. (I think it's falling down soon..)

Two old pics of me changed to be black and white..

Did you watch Monty Python movie Meaning of Life last saturday? I did and I loved it. Monty Python guys are genious, they know how to make something crazy to look like ordinary.

Jungle music ♥

My black&white world loves my new black&white hair ♥

In thursday I was in Vaasa with my friends watching my friend and her band's show there at Taiteiden Yö. And yesterday me, Korppunen and my little sister were in Vaasa shopping and at hair stylist.

First things first, don't let me go to TopTen.. or at least to sale 3 CDs with 20 €, I just can't resist it ♥

Anyway, I bought this time:

Linkin Park: Hybrid Theory

AC/DC: Highway to Hell

Hanoi Rocks: Back to Mystery City

The salesclerk guy was staring at me, 'cause I was wearing Nirvana shirt..

But now, my new hair:

 Photo was taken yesterday.. my hair doesn't ever stay up, even I would use a bottle of hairspray..

But it was quite well yesterday, really, but it looks so flat in the picture.. damn. 

Anyway, now I got my Nasty Suicide hair, just a little more punk ♥ I first was gonna ask thye hyair stylist ro make me hair somehow between Keith Richards and Andy McCoy but I realized that I still love punk more. But I couldn't ever have imagined that I could be partly blond some day again... XD 

I took these today.. I know, I don't have makeup, I'm tired and I have headache 'cause of not sleepingfor three nights but anyway my hair's fine ♥ And the blond part is really SHORT, just 9 mm ♥

This kind of stuff.. next week school's calling, but I'd rather travel to London. I think I'd suite to riot people very well. Or I'd like to escape from here to anywere, to Stockholm or to Berlin or to Capetown or to New York or to... away.

But as philosopher Jagger said, you can't always get what you want.

Scary monsters and super creeps ♥

Where does the time go?! It goes on and on and on, and makes me crazy. I didn't do anything on summer holiday, and two weeks later I should go back to school. Life isn't fair.  But now you'll see something VERY rare and even weird; me without makeup or flatted hair. Usually I make my hair every morning with flat iron, but when we were sleepover at house of Korppunen (can find from Twitter with that name), I just dried my hair... I just don't like natural curls, 'cause they're so damn difficult to control.

This is how I look if someone would steal my flat iron. Can't see Kurt from behind my hand. Fail. : /

 Anyway, I think my summer has been quite full of art. Not just music; I fell in love with painting again. I just couldn't find black paint from anywhere 'cause the nearby bookshop with sold painting stuff too decided to quit. Last week I borrowed some albums from library and my friend, and I was shopping at TopTen (wonder..)

I bought season 5 of House the day after I had heard it's on sell now on TopTen.

And look what else I found from sale box; Hanoi Rocks: Two steps from the move.

Happy child :3

I found these behind my books or somewhere, and realized that my dad had bought these for me.

I couldn't believe that from him, his own music taste is so different compared to mine. 

I think I should thank him.   

I borrowed Andy McCoy's album and Velvet Revolver's album from library and Linkin Park from Korppunen. ♥

And I fell in love with Andy, to his music and paintings. I saw few in some newspaper and I loved the style of the paintings - little bit like of tattoos or graffitis, colorful modern art. Love love love ♥ His music is by the way more blues than I exepted; somehow "Unconditional Love" brought Janis Joplin to my mind.   

I decided to decorate my room again = change the place of wallpapers. The real color of wall is light yellow, with some flowers, and I hate it. But is it morally wrong to put Hanoi Rocks and Mötley Crüe wallpapers to same wall, if I love Hanoi Rocks about 1000 times more?
