TAMPERE tuesday night rock'n'roll aaaajeee! AND LAHTI!
Yo muthas come on down to and boogie down at Tampere's good ol' YO-talo 9.9.2008. It's a tuesday night party of magic. Pekko Käppi and Black Audio will rock. You can buy great Musapojat-releases. You can forget all of your everyday worries and let it go, let it blow and BURN, BABY, BURN. In the name of rock'n'roll, there will be FIRE in the sky.
Or it may just be a lame tuesday night get-together of new and old university students with lame background music provided by lame artists. COME AND SEE FOR YOURSELF!
And it must be mentioned: Our last show at Hesa's Lepakkomies was a TOTAL BLAST OF EXCELLENT GREATNESS. GOOD BAND, GOOD AUDIENCE. There was even a 7% chance of the original drummer of Sonic Youth showing up as a member of the audience. He didn't, but still. THERE WAS a 7% chance!
Then, on 11.9.2008 we will rock in Lahti's legendary Torvi. Lockman will rock with us. There's just NO CHANCE of that night being anything else but FINGER LICKIN' GOOD.
+ more gigs coming up some time in the future! Keep checking!

LIVE ACTION!
Hey come on people come on!
We got a couple of gigs coming up! And you know you know it spells P-A-R-T-Y P-A-R-T-Y! So please locate your ass to the following places on the following dates:
5.2. 2008 On The Rocks, Helsinki
15.2. 2008 Bar 68, Jyväskylä
6.3. 2008 Tampere Film Festival (Buster Keaton/The General, Live Soundtrack)
28.3. 2008 Belly, Helsinki
And please notice that the Tampere Film festival gig ain't your regular rock'n'roll show. It's us providing a live soundtrack for Buster Keaton's silent film classic The General. Which means some clumsy, semi-improvised moustache boogie rocking with just a twist of that epic movie score magic. Or something. Be there and find out. It's of course a great movie, too.
In the immortal words of Brick Tamland: "LOUD NOISES!" and "OKAY! FANTASTIC!"
And here's some cool word play for those of lesser age: C U, wouldn't wanna B U! ;)
