Helsinki !!! ~ in music...

(... and music men & one music woman!)

It was heavenly. The country, the city, the music and especially the people! I just didn't realize I would need to wear so many layers , while out and about, in heaven!

;)

First, I present you with

my friends: Pekko, Sirpa, Jann and Wille (that's pronounced Ville~ah)

aka: THE JADE!
I love them!!!
(Please see below for video links of these performances!)




Jann has the most beautiful smile and he's so much fun! A good driver too!



Ohhh.... the emotion and the passion!!!! Yes, I love those too!

I'll admit, he was sort of intimidating at first. He has to be 6'6" tall ~ minimum ~ and he's such a striking figure.


You have to love a man on his knees! Well, maybe you don't have to. But, I do!
;)














Pekko is simply an amazing talent and a beautiful sight to behold. He writes most of The Jade's songs and he smells divine!!!
(Gives great hugs too. They all do!)


I think he's also the best smelling man in the world! Seriously!

This woman (Sirpa) is absolutely beautiful!!! Inside and out!

To sum it all up: The Jade is wonderful. Every member of the Jade is wonderful. And, their friends ~ in Helsinki ~ are wonderful too!!!

Oh, how I miss hearing Ven~dee! I loved it!


I better move on. I could be here all night posting pictures of The Jade!


*drum roll*

Ladies and Gentlemen ~ fans of Rock N Roll ~ please give a rousing round of applause for:


The one (two, actually) and only, legendary Andy McCoy & Michael Monroe


band known as: HANOI ROCKS














Was that a great way to ring in the new year? Hell yeah, it was!


Here are more of the musicians performing at The Rokkers' Ball. Sorry, I don't remember their names or the names of the bands. I really, really do need to start taking notes! But, that might interfere with the singing, dancing and chatting with folks. Isn't it enough I take the pictures and videos?



Yeah, I know. I did get the important parts! *big wink*







Here are the links to those videos (I stongly recommend watching these videos in High Quality):

Hell yeah!

Okay, I have more videos on my youtube channel. Feel free to watch those as well!
Can we do new year's eve all over again. The entire first week+ of January would be great to do again!
Remember: Live, Love, Laugh and Listen (to live music)!
