Sonisphere-Finland; SlipKnoT, mainstage, 2.7.2011, Kalasatama, Helsinki

It was definitely worth of all waiting, burning in the sun and listening annoying people - this band is pure awesomeness, there's no enough positive words to describe how good this band is!
It's the BEST!

Music, lyrics, band members, live-shows -> everything is so awesome, personal, so creative and perfect that it will change your life forever!
And having Paul's 'doll' on the stage, creating the spirit of Paul, was really touchful ... in positive and negative way, negative 'cause it made (and make) me sad. Good people die too young! :(

 

Paul <3

I love this band of my heart. Simply the best heh.
And yes, I'm also very happy of these photos, I think they turned pretty good even there was a very, very wild crowd! :P

Sonisphere-Finland; In Flames, mainstage, 2.7.2011, Kalasatama, Helsinki

I have always like In Flames, but not so much that I would pay a lot just of them. I have my times when I listen more music like this, and for example lately I have been listening a lot of In Flames :)
But they're always so good at live, even they're not doing so much on the stage it still touch you inside and make you feel great ... that's a good sign of a good band heh ;)

 

Ahahahaha! :'D

I'm really happy some of these photos, I think they turned pretty good :)

Sonisphere-Finland; Mastodon, mainstage, 2.7.2011, Kalasatama, Helsinki

Pahoittelut pitkästä blogi-tauosta, jääkiekon MM-kisat ja koulu ovat pitäneet mut kiireisenä :)

Jatketaan tästä kuitenkin vielä viime vuoden festari-tunnelmilla!
Mastodon oli siis yksi neljästä päälavan bändeistä Sonispheressä ja valitettavasti ihan kuolettavan tylsä. Pari siistiä kuvaa sai :D

I'm sorry of the long break in blogging, I have been busy with my school and last 2 weeks we had Icehockey World Championships here in Finland, and I'm huuuge fan of icehockey so ... u got the point ;)

Let's continue with last year's festival-feelings!
Sonisphere, and the second band in mainstage, Mastodon. Super boring for me but got few pretty ok photos of them :D

Sonisphere-Finland; Stam1na, mainstage, 2.7.2011, Kalasatama, Helsinki

Mentiin jonottamaan viime vuoden Sonisphereen päivää aikaisemmin SlipKnoTin takia. Harmitti ja harmittaa edelleen että Rob Zombie perui, perkele!
Juostiin tai itseasiassa minä kävelin koska pääsin ennen muita alueelle sisään (ha haa, siitäs saivat muut kun eivtä lippu-laitteet toimineet :D) ja suoraa päälavan eteen, vähän vasempaan sivustaan keskeltä edestä katsottuna.

Päälavan bändit olivat Stam1na, Mastodon (USA), In Flames (SWE) ja SlipKnoT (USA). Toisen lavan bändit tuli katsottua aika lailla istuen päälavan eturivi-aidassa kiinni heh. Päälavan bändit olivat kaikki mieleeni paitsi mielestäni Mastodon on ihan helvetin tylsä ... varsinkin jos sen näkee viikon sisään kaksi kertaa, hyvien bändien keskellä. Argh!

Mutta tässäpä keikka-kuvia Stam1nan keikalta :) Iso HAIL Hyrden mahtavalle keikka-asulle, jau jau!

We went to Finland's Sonisphere-festival in 2011 to see SlipKnoT! We were waiting outside the venue already a day before because we wanted to make sure our places in frontrow and cuz waiting is so funny with good friend(s)!
We ran to the frontrow of the mainstage because there were performing SlipKnoT.


The bands at the mainstage were Stam1na (FIN), Mastodon (USA), In Flames (SWE) and SlipKnoT (USA).
We didn't see so much or even were intrested a lot of the bands at the other stage hahah. I like all other bands except Mastodon, I think it's a bit boring :D


From above you can see gig-photos from Stam1na's gig :)
