My First Band

Hello my dears,

Do you also wonder what all the Radio stations played before there was Lifesaver of Sunrise Avenue? I really love listening to the Finns but after the 12th time a day it's enough.. Nevertheless I have to think every time on the concert in Munich. I'm sooo happy :) The last weeks I was very excited who'd be the next member of the 'supporting act group' after The Pusher and Superscar. Then the facilitating news that My First Band will be the supporting act came. I really love their sound although I was a bit shocked about the song title 'Baby you're too Young [I wanna make love to your mama]'. Pretty provocative but I'm very excited. Until now they're my favourite of all supporting acts.

When I was at the Champions League finale two years ago, Heikki has already been there as Sunrise Ave's keyboarder. At first I thought he's Riku's brother, they really look a bit similar ;)
Who'll be in Munich, too?

Break my chains

Hello my dears,

Today I'm a bit earlier with the Advent calendar so I can't forget it like on Thursday.. As well I'll blog finally a normal post today, it took such a long time because the calendar takes much more time that you think.. Well everything is pretty perfect now: only one test left and I'm quite ready with all this Christmas stuff. 

Enjoy your weekend!

Little bit love

Hello my cuties,

Today I wanna present you a song of Sunrise Avenue’s new album Unholy Ground. I was a bit afraid before listening to it the first time. If you like a band or anything else that much, you have exact imaginations and extreme high demands to everything new. I couldn’t believe that Sunrise Avenue could better the last albums and so I put the CD with mixed feelings in the player.

I’ve already listened to Livesafer, Unholy Ground and Afraid of the midnight before the album release, what made me a bit calm. I really had to cry because I liked all the songs so much. Somehow they weren’t new, they were part of the ‚Sunrise Ave familiy‘.

I decided to present you song number 03: Little bit love. At the beginning Samu's voice sounds very soft and calm. He counts a few things he doesn't need like 'a crown on his head', he just needs a little bit love. Samu again made it to twist me around his finger during the first lines.. 

If I close my eyes, I can imgaine Samu performing this song on stage. He's there, looking with that kind of sad view, and Riku is in his own small world. Sometimes you can watch Riku being into the song and not in this world right now. At the point ‚And it makes me crazy, how I need you baby, no I can’t escape it, ‘cause I just need a little bit love.’ I think they just start jumping around again and I worry that they will fall down some day.. I love this point in the song, Samu's voice sound a bit rough and more demanding now. Well, that's it, when somebody makes you crazy..

But now enough read, I don't wanna tell you everything. Just listen to it :)

Four months :)

[27.10.2013]
Hello my dears

In four months it's time for Sunrise Avenue in Munich! I can’t await it. I hope there’ll be no test this day and I really have no idea what to do if there’s one.. Who of you’ll be there as well? Have you already bought tickets?

I watched 'The voice of whatever' the last days and I have to say, I can’t stand this show. I just watch it because of Samu Haber but otherwise it annoys me. Well, the guy opening the door is pretty great, honestly! The show’s basics are not bad but let’s be honest: Only a few great singers have a chance on the music market when being not that handsome. That’s sad of course, but that’s life. The whole package has to be suitable. You have to like the person on TV. That’s why I haven’t heard Sunrise Ave for such a long time, there wasn’t a connection. Not it is fortunately.

By the way: Last week the new Sunrise Ave album  'Unholy Ground' was released, the first one I witnessed really. I mean the waiting time and all news concerning new music stuff. Because I wanted to get it on time, I ordered it directly in Finland. What should I say, it was too late. Two days I ago I listened the first time to the new songs. I cried all the time. I like all albums but Unholy Ground is the best one! The songs are so dreamlike. The go from your ear to your heart in one second. Great fun when listening to it! Maybe I’ll present you some songs the next days :)

Oh my friend, you're holding out your hand

[03.10.2013]
Hey you,

Today it’s public holiday in Germany so I have enough time for chilling although I should going on writing my term paper and finish my best friend’s birthday present. I’d really like to show you my idea after her birthday (if she liked it).

Today I’ll write about something I wanted to do already last week :) I’m so excited about tomorrow when Sunrise Avenue’s new single ‚Livesafer‘ will be published. After listening to it the first time I didn’t like it very much because it wasn’t Sunrise Avenue way but after the third time I loved it because it is Sunrise Avenue way! Now it’s already one of my favourite songs, the lyrics are so pretty. What I like most is the part when all sing and then Samu starts sining alone again. I love listening to Riku’s voice it’s kind of soft and anodyne but powerful at the same time. The only thing I pity is the fact that Sami isn’t so present. At one part I think: Yeah, now it’s Sami’s turn, he’ll drum the way you won’t hear anymore. But - silence.  I love it nevertheless and you can watch the whole video here:  

http://www.sunriseave.com/en/home/

If you think it isn’t worth buying just one single you can order the new album ‚Unholy ground‘ as well, it’ll be released in two weeks. At Sunrise Avenue’s homepage you can apparently hear some parts of the album but I prefer waiting for the whole artwork. I’m sure it’ll be at least as good as Out of style.

Oh, another thing. Guess who’ll do everything to be in the first row the 25th February? And I’d also liked to get any souvenirs but can it be better than a bottle from Samu, a plec and a towel from Riku and autographs from the supporting act.. Well it would be the time for a picture with the handsome guys!

Have a great day and order some tickets! Maybe we’ll meet each other in five month :)

pcfritz Tour

[16.08.2013]
Actually I wanted to post about Regensburg today but I was in Nuremberg just today and so I’ll have to tell you about this :)

All pretzelhouses of Kolb were closed because of vacation today but another one was open anjd the pretzel was pretty good as well. The trip today was basically planned because of the pcfritz bus tour that had a stopover in Nuremberg today. ‘Fette Beats und heiße Bräute’ [killer beats and hot chicks] should be presented. Well, the music was really super but I don’t know what to say about the chicks but anyhow the break-dancers were yummy :P

At the place in front of the Lorenz church were always something happening and so we didn’t go shopping so much. All people were greatly friendly and the performances of Toni Tuklan and Vito Lavita were fantastic as usual. 

After the first performance I had some time to to talk a bit to Toni and take a photo with him. He’s such a charming man, my mom was also fascinated! He also took a photo for you, summer has already passed half but that doesn’t matter [Buntes Bonbon is looking forward to the summer :) ]

Meantime there were some short breaks but usually the DJs were busy putting on some music if no liveact was there.

And even if I don’t like the ‚Dschungelcamp‘ [I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me out of Here!] and I don’t know why total Joey Heindle became famous I wanted a photo with him and him and him… My collection grew up very well today but I still don’t have a picture with Vito.

Well, now I’m tired and go to bed. Thanks to all who were so kind to me today and to pcfritz for the great day! It’s never boring in Nuremberg, I guess it will be very hard for Regensburg ;)

Slow and steady (Part 2)

[24.07.2013]
Yesterday you could read the first part of my interview with Vito Lavita, which main part was about Danzare. Now you have the chance to know some different things about Vito ;)

(No word by word translation but meaning stays the same!)

BB: Now another topic:
     Nowadays there are so many castingshows on TV. What do you think about
     them or have you even thought about taking part at it on your own?

Vito: I enjoy watching them but I think that would be the wrong thing for me
       because I want to strike another path.

BB: This path wasn’t easy for sure. What would you advise people who have the
      same dream like you? Is it always worth fighting for it?

Vito: I’d advise the people just continue with making music, of course with a
      certain aim. You just should take the path you want and everybody should
     make this decision on his own. It’s worth continuing, no matter if you have
     success or not. I also  would continue making music even if I hadn’t this
     success - how can I say that - I’d say: Make music, step on it!

BB: Do you have another job beside the music or don’t you do anything else?

Vito: Nope, at the moment I’m only making music and I hope it’ll persist.

BB: Yes, I think we all wish you this.

Vito: Thanks.

BB: Now again another thing:

     I read in the web very often that you’re a typical Italian womaniser. Are
     you really a player or a romantic?

Vito: Well, it depends on the day. There are of course days it works well and
      also other days. Let’s put it this way: If I had a girlfriend I would be a
      romantic of course but because I’m single… Newspapers can write what
      they want but I take every critique and compliment seriously.

BB: And what’s the biggest support for you in this stressful time?

Vito: That’s the music. 

BB: Didn’t you lose your courage if you didn’t have such a success with your
     single?

Vito: Never, you should never give up and always believe in yourself.

BB: You’re very optimistic!

Vito: Yes but that’s my attitude. 

BB: I’m writing a blog on the internet on my own. And now I’d like to know
     what you think about them and if you also visit them.

Vito: Well, I didn’t visit the that much but I’d like to visit you and of course
       others as well.

BB: Ok, that’s it. Thank you very much fort he interview!

Vito: You’re welcome.  

BB: I’m very looking forward to your new songs and the album in autumn and
     wish you a lot of success!

Vito: Yes, thanks! Ciao. 

I still have a racing heart when I think about the interview and I’m annoyed by myself because I forgot so important things!

I didn’t want to write this in the continuous text but when I asked him if he’s a womaniser, there was a very clear laughter ;) But doesn’t disturb me at all.

RESULT: Very likeable and charming guy with a lot of potential! I’m sure we’ll hear a lot about him yet.
Thank you very much again, Vito. I wish you the best from the bottom of my heart!

PS.: First part of the interview is here:

PPS.: Right now you can vote for Danzare at Bravo.de as the summer hit 2013!

A beginner’s guide to Holi

[25.07.2013]
Dear readers,

what an exciting weekend! On Sunday I was at the Holi in Bayreuth (small city in Bavaria). As a ‘buntes Bonbon’ (coloured sweetie) I was there because of the pretty colours but also because curiosity was so big!

There are more and more Holis in Germany and I think also in other parts of Europe or the whole world. But I couldn’t find some necessary tips on the internet, so I decided to talk about this topic a bit.

   1. Don’t take a camera with you! It’s just annoying when you’d like to dance and there are for sure enough professional photographers who hold the best moments. Furthermore the cam of your mobile phone is enough for this day.

   2. If you wanna take your camera with you nevertheless, ask before (!) the event, if you’re allowed to take it into the area, make a screenshot of the permission and take it with you as well. Please wrap your camera very well. Put a shift of cling wrap on the lens and then fold the whole camera with two or three other shifts of cling wrap and tape it well. Finally but it in a plastic bag but make a hole of the lens. So it’s powder-proof. But unfortunately not that much water-proof.
Or just buy a disposable cam for 2 or 3€.

  3. Look for a chaperon (if you’re under 18 or 21 maybe in other countries) or a written permission from your parents.

   4. Pack a small bag (one day before if that’s possible). It should include:
- ticket
- parents‘ permission
- ID
- money
- many tissues
- sunglasses
- sunscreen
- mobile phone
- plastic bags (for your mobile phone…)

  5. Don’t inhale the powder directly and close your eyes when the powder is thrown. Even better: put a tissue on your mouth, nose and eyes for not getting any irritations.

   6. Take enough money with you to buy something to drink. It’ll probably be hot and I’m sure nobody likes to collapse there. If there’ll be an accident please make clear where the paramedics are before!

   7. Don’t think about your appearance, just have fun!

  8. For all girls: Pin up your hair. After washing them three times my hair is still pink!

  9.  Wear really old stuff and not the new summer dress, the colour isn’t so easy to wash out, my underwear’s still coloured.

I hope that doesn’t sound deterrent, these are just tips to make the Holi more comfortable for you. If you were there ones, I’m sure you’d like to be there every week. It was such a great fun in Bayreuth and it was the perfect mix of summer, music and folly.
Have fun & maybe we’ll meet us at one of the next Holis :)

PS.: An insider’s tip for all girls: The most handsome guys were in Bayreuth just at the beginning, so don’t arrive pretty at the end.. And look out for the ‚free hugs guys‘ they were really yummy :D

Slow and steady...

[23.07.2013]
… wins the race! Sometimes you might wait for nothing but if there’s a short moment, you have more luck than judgment, it was all worth and your live at the phone when Germany’s newcomer has a jar at the ‘Nürnberger Stadtstrand’.

One of the most exciting calls I’ve ever had. Sweat beads and heart beating included!

I doubted that the interview with Vito Lavita would take part but the final answer made me happy all the more. If you don’t know Vito, just visit this page:

http://buntes-bonbon.blogspot.de/2013/06/little-italy-english.html

otherwise: enjoy reading!

(Interview was of course in German, so it’s possible that there are some small divergences but I tried to translate it as exact as it was possible for me.)

BB: Hello Vito! Thanks for taking time for me. How are you today?  Hallo Vito! Vito: Fine, I’m at the ‚Nürnberger Stadtstrand‘ with my cousin right now and
       have a beer. 

BB: Well, that’s always great! With Danzare
     (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgs9SY4sli8) you put a real summer
     hit on the market!

     How long do you already make music?
Vito: I make music since I’m a little child, actually since I was in my mother’s
      womb because my dad was a professional musician. I just grew up with it. 

BB: Do you play an instrument as well?

Vito: No, unfortunately not. But I hope, I can learn how to play one.

BB: What means making music for you?

Vito: Music is just a part of my life, without music I couldn’t live. Yes, that
       means music for me: Music means life.

BB: You’ve already said that the last time was very stressful. The video shoot
     and all the performances for example. What are your plans for the next
     weeks?

Vito: We’ll perform in Berlin soon and we’re trying to get some performances
       in Italy. It’s not clear yet, but I think and hope we’ll have some shows
       there soon.

BB: Are you also working at an album?

Vito: Yes sure. We’re working for this right now and produce it. It’ll hopefully
       be published in autumn. 

BB: Oh, I’m curious about it.

     The ‘Bildzeitung‘ (very famous tabloid press in Germany) calls Danzare
     summer hit of the year.
     Are you happy about this title or is it just needless pressure for you?

Vito: No, quite contrary. I’m very happy the ‚Bildzeitung‘ considers Danzare as
       a summer hit and I hope of course that’ll be soon like that. 

BB: You recorded Danzare with Toni Tuklan. Do you know him for a longer
     time or since the records?

Vito: I know Toni because of Goar B., the producer who already made Mambo
      No. 5. I know Toni for about a year, well actually because of the records.
      But I think we have a super relationship and it feels like I knew him for
      ages. 

BB: And who is your musical ideal?

Vito: I have no real ideal but I’d like to produce a song with Eros Ramazzotti!

BB: Really? What style would you prefer? His or yours? Because I think it’s very
     different.  

Vito: Well, I hope we could make a compromise and split the difference. 

This was the initial trick, but the second follows quick ;) 

Because typewriting takes so much time, that was just the first part of the interview. Second will follow tomorrow (hopefully).

Enjoy your afternoon.
PS.: Part two is here:

Loud & Clear

[30.06.2013]
Hello my sweeties,

how you probably already have noticed, my last posts were pretty full of music. The main reason for this ist hat music concerns me a lot the last few weeks. First the video shoot with Vito Lavita, then ist release and so on.. It’s very strange to see one’s face on different homepages and on TV but somehow funny, too.

Now away from Vito to another artist. I can’t remember if I’ve already told you about my fondness for Olly Murs. I don’t know what I like about him but somehow he has the perfect package. He looks fantastic, he has a super voice and he’s an Englishman, hihi :D A few weeks ago I bought his new album ‚Right Place, Right Time‘ but had no time to really listen to it. Troublemaker is on the radio for weeks now, and so I know it very well and because I liked the song ‚Dear Darlin‘‘ at the first time listening to it, so much, it’s playing on repeat as well. Last week it was the first time I really listened to the songs‘ lyrics and there aren’t a lot of songs that touch me that much. You hear a clear difference to his last album ‚In case you didn’t know‘. He probably had to polish his ‚Mr. Nice Guy Image‘ that’s jettisoned now from the Bad Boy. But that’s not the worst thing ;) Girls understand what I mean. Anyway I’d like to present you a song that is very harmless today. It is called ‚Loud & Clear‘ and in contrast to ist title more quiet but clear of course. It’s about a relationship which broke up - because of her - he’s very disappointed and sad about it but he’s also sure that he doesn’t want to get her back. My eyes are filled with tears everytime listening to it. There’s so much dolour and desperation in the song, much more than you believe that it’s possible.

I can’t write at the moment because I’m already crying. Everytime at the sentence ‚I was calling you my world my heart my everything.‘ it’s over for me. This point is so cruel and heartbreaking that it gives me the creeps. And the way he expresses this with his voice is just fierce. Who has never heard this song can’t know how much a song can touch you. I have no words for it. Just listen to it here (I found no good studio version, so you probably have to buy it!)

36 Degrees

[20.06.2013]
Finally the summer is here! Outside there are 36°, inside at least 40. And now beg who spent her afternoon at school today..
And tomorrow we'll write a test, well no sunbathing or splashing. Well you can't do anything against it. Anyway I try to enjoy the summer. If in my free lessons with an ice cream or at home at a barbecue. Today I'll have some grilled vegetables like courgettes and potatoes, some curd,a bit bread and a salad. Best summer meal.
# That should be the post of Tuesday but somehow I didn't make it to post it, neither yesterday.

Well it hasn't changed a lot. For two or three lessons I stay at school for 10 hours. That's so annoying! 

But you can't change it! Tomorrow it's offically the begin of summer and on time for this event, Vito Lavita will publish his single 'Danzare', feat. Toni Tuklan. I already got the single and I'm still ardent. So buy it and dance the Danzare!

Now I have to tell you anything else. Maybe you know that I've a map where I mark all countries, where I've got some clicks. And since yesterday I made it on at least one PC in every continent. I was so proud when I got a click of the last missing mainland, Africa, from Morocco.
Now I have clicks from over 30 countries, I'll have to count them some day. Thank you so much.
Kisses, Marie

Green, green, green :)

[15.06.2013]
To revisit the word of May 'nature', I chose green as the colour that will accompany us during the next four weeks. And well, it's beautifuk to finally see anything green outside, after everything was just gray.
The picture (1) shows you my new door plate. I'm very happy about the great outcome, I let fabricate the plate only for me ;) It wasn't very cheap with its 17€ price but I think it is worth! A wonderful souvenir of our finnish boys, which you can hang up without seeming to be tennielike.

Photo (2) shows to different nail polish, I really like to use. I prefer painting my finger nails with the dark one but then the foot nails get light green. I bought the light one at Claire's, it is very flowing but its colour excuses everything. And the dark one is of the brand Kiko, the nail polish paradise :)

On picture (3) you can see a lady's mantle in my neighbour's garden. Well, I probably don't have to explain more about it, just a wonderful photo. You can see how uncomplicated but beautifuk the nature is.

Photo (4) wasn't easy to take because I just have two green things in my armoire, although the colour suits everybody I think. With brown hair & something green you get somehow a kind of brightness and blonds spark with it. I bought the oversized blouse at C&A this year, if your body isn't in summer feeling yet, a oversized thing is fantastic ;)

Long may they live

[13.06.2013]
'Who is fond of life fun and pleasure? Who oscillates and changes often? Who loves attention without any limit?' This is a horoscope for the zodiac sign gemini, I found it at an english website. Why do I tell you this? Because this horoscope fits for a lot of people at the moment. Without thinking about it, I know at once four people who celebrate their birthday today. Well, officially: happy happy birthday to all birthday children, especially to my cousin :) I still remember the Good Friday 2005 when I was with him and to other cousins at the cinema. I don't know if I've already told you the story but don't mind, I'll tell it you once again. We watched the movie 'Robots' a vey pleasant movie for little children.
But the highlight wasn't Robots, it was the song of the movie called 'From zero to hero' of Sarah Connor, who also dubs a robot lady in the film. I was fascinated at once, maybe even bewitched. So it was my cousin who made me be a Sarah Connor fan and who takes us to the next birthday girl of this day. Now I can count all CDs, DVDs, a lot of special editions, autographs and real collector's items to my property. Unfortunately I just could visited one concert but I'm sure it'll become more in the future. Beside that I'm happy about every single song of her. At this point I want to say sorry for my last post about Sarah but I stay at my point of view and be still disappointed about the high ticket price for the christmas concerts. Anyway I wish Sarah and her family a wonderful day, good luck for the future and hopefully a great party. Thanks for the nice moments I had with your music! I'm looking forward to all that I'll sample because of you.
Enjoy the sunny and warm evening & have a good last day before the weekend!

Little Italy

[01.06.2013]
If you followed my Facebook posts and the texts here assiduously, ja know, that something vey exciting happened last Friday and also that the day had an Italian flair. I spent the day with my best friend Keks in Bamberg and you don't call it the Northern Rome without cause.  The small alleys, the old bridges over the Regnitz and not at least the old fishermans' quarter 'Little Venice' account for the Italian flair. But the destination wasn't only chosen because of the pretty atmosphere..

Last week's Wednesday evening I was a bit bored. Well, boredom, jevenility and a photo of a handsome young man are a dangerous combination.. you do things then, you wouldn't do anytime else ;) And ao I followed Vito Lavita's appeal and alpied for a role in his first music video. I hadn't the aim to be really taken, but the curiosity finally won. That I would dance in a video two days later, was not my intention. Of course I had to speak with my best friend at once and tell her about the news. While we were phoning, we had to research about the song 'Danzare' naturally. When I read that Bild.de calls the song the summer hit, I recognized what I've done. And you can believe me one things: during the next few hours I underwent all different feelings. The permanent change bewtween 'Omg, what have I done? That will be so shameful!' 'I'm so happy about it' and 'My parent will freak out!' wasn't very funny. The only thought that calmed me down, was that I had at least a funny story for you.

I slept surprisingly well in the night before the shooting, although I was very very nervous as well. Crammed like a donkey, which goes to a holiday for three weeks, Keks and I went to the train in direction to Bamberg. Arrived there, I became paler every minute but my fortune cookie calmed me down all the time. To join in the Italian feeling, we decided to go to an Italian restaurant before the shooting and were babbled promtly in Italian. That the waiter had blond hair and a beer belly (really Latin) isn't of relevance. Sometime we went to the set with a lot of anticipation and red lipstick. At first view everything was a bit chaotic and that also proved true at the second view. Anyway all people were super friendly and it teemed with a lot of different characters. Large and small, young and old, Italian and German, somehow everything was there. Not just the different people impressed me, but also the lovely decoration. Everywhere you found small flags in the Italian colours, bulbs were strained between the houses and also they themselves spread this magic feeling. Shortly after our arrival the shooting began but just a few minutes before that we learned a short choreography. And no less than Markus Schöffl, ex- Let's dance juror and choreographer of a lot of stars, taught us the dance. A few minutes later the kingpin of the day, Vito Lavita, arrived at the set on a Vespa. The shooting was very different than I've thought. I counted with one or two scenes with the background actors but there were a few more. Even if we had to act every scene five or six times and we heard the song about 250 times, I had a lot of fun all the time. I was mesmerized by the song and the whole atmosphere, so the raindrops and the frosty temperature didn't bother, in spite of the minidress. During the shooting breaks I had the one or other talk and so you found out a lot of interesting things about your combatants. Unfortunately we couldn't stay till the end because our train wouldn' have waited for us probably. With this thouht in my mind, I applied myself for the last scene and gave all.

It doesn't matter how terrible I'll look in the video, I had soooo much fun. And I also have to say that I'm a bit bewitched by Vito's charm. You know that I normally prefer northern guys and I don't have a lot of things in common with Italians but in this case it is a bit different. A very handsome young man who provides with his charisma for good mood and summer feeling. But the song Danzare has much more: beside Vito's singing there's a rap part of Toni Tuklan, a Nigerian who makes successful music with his brother, too. Because of this contrast the song sounds even more agil and dissociates itself from others. All the things makes Danzare also in my opinion to a hit, and if there'll be a summer also to a summer hit. I don't wanna tell you more about the video, just wait and see :) But visit Vito Lavita's homepage: 
http://www.vito-lavita.com/de/
Here you can find a lot of infos and also a few videos of the shooting.
Attention when you're listening to the song. Acute earworm risk!

Day number three

[04.04.2013]
As you can read it’s already the third day of my birthday week and I thought about a very special thing for today. Maybe you now that my blog wasn’t the only birthday boy at the 2nd of April. Our favourite babbler Samu Haber could celebrate his birthday at Tuesday as well. Again the best congratulations dear Dr. Haber. He’s a few years older but this doesn’t matter because he still looks so young and dynamic as my bonbon.  I racked my brain a long time how to celebrate both birthdays together. I didn’t find a solution and that’s why I had to change my plan a bit and you’ll be the presentees. Well, at least one of you.
At the concert in Fürth I took so many pictures. But now I’m gonna stop with this blabla.
Send me an email at blog.buntes.bonbon@gmail.com until the 10th of April 2013 with the cathchword ‚Samu Haber‘, your name, your addres, and, if applicable, a link of your own blog and like the facebook page of my blog. And so you already take part at my competition. You can win this photo of our handsome suitman as a ca. 30 x 45cm tall photo poster.

I’m happy about your participation and croos my fingers for you. The winner will get allotted. Oh, and write in your mail also, if I should tell you, that you’ve won or if I should surprise you ;) Again you can take part from wherever you live. 
# lottery is already over. Congratulations to Tamara!

Big Band Theory Tour/Fürth

[29.03.2013]
Since the end of October you regularly heard how much I was looking forward to the Big Band Theory Tour of Sunrise Avenue and last I finally went there. Previously I informed me exactly about everything for example where the toilets are (sounds stupid but is one of the most important things) or if I'm allowed to take my reflex camera with me. If not I wanted to avoid discussing at the entry. It was my luck that I asked, it was just allowed with a press card. That's enough babbled. Not it staaaarts:

Puh, that was a day. I've already posted on the Sunrise Avenue Facebook page that I can't find any words for all that happened on Tuesday. Really, words can't describe this. Like Samu sings: 'And I don't know the right words I should say, never felt anything this way..' It's impossible to couch this but I try it nevertheless.

My mom and I depatured at about nine o'clock and arrived in Fürth at 10:30. Just as we drive to the 'Stadthalle' (guildhall), I see to buses with toned windows and what should I say, yes, they were it. Because it is definitely too long for us, to wait there from 10:30 till 19:00 we just walked around the town a bit and are back at 12:30. The tour buses are directly next to us and so we have the chance to risk a look at Samu or my darling Riku. Sometime Samu comes out of the bus with a crate of coke in his hands. I'm thinking: 'Er, what's he doing with this right now?!' And a few seconds later, Mr. Samu Haber is straight in front of us and asks if we are thirsty. Yeah, we are thirsty and even if not, who wouldn't take something to drink if Samu Haber himself gives it to you? No matter, how bad the concert will be, it's already a perfect day.

When I'll go to our car later, Riku will wave out of the taxi. Shit :/ A short time before seven o'clock we are allowed to go into the hall. I'm running as fast as I can, just to get the best place in front of Riku. No sooner said than done. My place is safe. Now my mom comes. But what's better to gild the waiting time than doing a bit of shopping? Thus I look around a bit in the building. I'm not thirsty anymore but the bar catches my eye at once: 'Can I get the can without substance please?!' Yes. I could as you can see: 

After this I look at the merchandise stuff and decide to buy a button and plec set, after this I go back to my place. Now I can't wait listening to the supporting act. Announced are four Finnish guys, who are called Superscar. I listened to a song of them on youtube and I wasn't so fascinated of them. But when the guys arrive on stage, I have to grin. The guitarist straight in front of me looks like a small puppy, I'd really like to hug him and canoodle with him. Because he looks a bit grimly I smile at him and then, I finally get a smile back. Somehow he watches at me all the time. Ok, I have to look the other way. Oh no, he still looks at me, I think I blush. The whole half an hour I get maternal feelings because the guys are so cute. Still so young (probably ten years older than myself, but that doesn't matter :D) and still so nervous. A few minutes before they finished the other guitarist comes to our side and wants to give a high five to us but the arms are too short. Haha, I have to laugh. After about 30 minutes the band disappears but then they come back to abolish their equipment.  That’s so likeably, somehow I’m taken aback by them :).

A coke from Samu, a super cute supporting act. Slowly my expectance is rising into the boundless.

At 9 o’clock sharp it starts. The light turns off. Sirens turn on. Riku is at the stage. He stands exactly  in front of me. The begin playing.

I gotta go is not one of my fav songs but anyway it packs a wallop. My face hurts because of smiling so much but I can’t stop. I’ve a goose flesh but in the same moment I’m so hot and probably that’s not just because of my pullover.. I wonder how you can play the guitar in that way and look so handsome at once, like Riku does ;) Every song beats the previous one. I can’t believe being part of this. Ok, slowly Riku annoys me. He notices that I look at him all the time, that I’m so happy but he doesn’t make it to give me just a second of his attention. Ok, doesn’t matter because two oft he ‚Big Band guys‘ smile at me all the time.

I love the break between two songs when Samu is telling something. I love his voice. I love his humor and I must laugh because of every little joke he’s telling. I hear that the boys start to play Happiness one of my favorite songs. This evening is perfect.   Shortly after this song, Samu speaks about football in Finland. Couldn’t be better. They play 6-0 and yes, it’s always a pleasure to see how Samu shows the lyrics visually. Especially here: I will love you, I will hold you, satisfy you, you'll never wanna let me go But seriously, that would lack. Two or three songs later, they play Hollywood Hills and I don’t feel well now. The song is full of memories and I start crying. But because I get some pitying looks from the wind instruments and so I continue feeling fantastic and also free. I can forget this story, it’s better to forget it. When we come tot he last song (Nasty) it gets a bit ‚schmudsig‘ (filthy). As Mr. Haber says, you should keep shut all ‚ears and eyes‘ of all children, pets ‚or whatever‘ and points at his eyes and then his ears. This little blooper makes the evening even better. I’m overhelmed by this band, it was a super evening but I’m still a bit disappointed because of Riku. After the ‚schmudsigen‘ (dirty) song it gets really dirty and Riku dries his whole head with the towel, I pointed a few seconds before. I can’t believe what’s happening now. Riku knees in front of me, smiles and puts the towel straighht into my hands. I knew it. He smile and I have to smile even more. He throws a plec to the first row, everybody next to me are looking for it but for me it doesn’t matter. After all,  I got the towel of Riku Rajamaa (he’s also the only one who gives it to somebody in the crowd). It doesn’t smell like flowers, more like a dose of sweat and a bottle of beer, they drank next to the stage. While the others are searching the plec, I put on a pout, that achieves ist duty wholeheartedly. With another smile, Riku chucks a plec to me. Wow, I love him. I didn’t expect that at all. This naughty boy noticed it very well that I looked at him, and not like the drooling ladies advanced in age, at Samu. Any time, Riku goes and we go, too. It was the second best evening of my life. Outside the room, Superscar wait and I make them signing my flag. Now they’re more relaxed and in a very great mood. The guitarist makes a joke because of my flag, but it fails a bit. The drummer just says: ‚Oh, that was a bad joke!‘ I say thank you and we go home. I don’t have to mention that I didn’t sleep a wink the next four nights.. I take along so many things of this concert. A coke from Samu, a towel and a plec from Riku, an autograph from Superscar, two cans, two buttons and three bought plecs, hundreds of photos, a cozy little chat with Superscar, 10000 of memories and not at least a friendly acquaintance, we’ll surely meet at the next concert. 

 P.S.: It took such a long time to finish this post because I personally had to cool down first. There were too many impressions at once for my little mind. And to be honest: I realize all details only now.

P.P.S.: The towel is (of course not washed) well secured now and fortunately it doens't smell anymore.
