WAKE UP WITH TERASBETONI!



Yeah, well before you thank me for this (a humorous assumption), I have to thank my friend Maria of "Nightspell World" for introducing me to this band from Finland. Just a heads-up, I had planned a Blog on something cool that Bruce Springsteen did recently. But that will be posted later. I just sincerely felt this would be a fun way for you to ---in the words of the late Jim Morrison here..."WAKE UP!"

Having said that, make sure your speakers are turned on. This is a great band and I've seen them interviewed. They take their music seriously, but not themselves. Hopefully Gene Simmons and KISS can open for them. (I know, I know...now Shannon Tweed and Gene will send me an e-mail). Oh, before I forget. Don't you just hate it when well meaning people have their blogsites set up so that when you open them, they blast you with music? No worries! My Webmaster advised me early on to avoid this nuisance. This is a special occasion only. So crank it up and welcome to Wednesday, with a little extra octane in your coffee or tea!

That's the Finish entry in the European Song Contest 2008.
Finland won in 2006 with the song: Hard Rock Hallelujah.

Awww i'll have to miss this one cos' I can't get it at home and can't do it at work :(

BTW I have someone I am trying to get to go visit Denny on our behalf. I think/hope I have the correct place he is at. It's VERY hard to get info from his family and with HIPAA laws... but i'm trying to let our dear friend know he is not forgotten. Not at all...

Thomas Siefert! Hey, good to see you here!! I know Maria was really pulling for them. I've watched their English speaking interviews and they are all guys with a sense of humor. Very cool! (scratching my chin...) I'm wondering now if I should use this song to come on automatically when people open my Blog? ;D)

Maria: Yes, Jarkko Ahola's voice is cool! I like them!! lol!:)

Patti: You have my permission to copy this week's interview and have that person carry it to him to read it aloud. I know he will love knowing we still miss him and we're thinking about him. He will probably wonder why "129 people" didn't read it. I thought that I would have unleashed the flood gate of bloggers with the repost. But, you never can tell.

Patti: Post Script: Tell Denny's contact 659 people read this interview. 9 of the last 20 were from the USA; one came from Russia. It may have been Olga! :D))!!

My kind of music :)
There are ways to put the volume down so its not to loud when people come in but some people like me have their speakers cranked up to the limit not so much because i like it loud but so my older ears could hear it LOL

dianne: IT WORKED! HOW COOL IS THAT!! :D)

Walker: Huh? No wait, just kidding! These guys are funny in an English interview after a concert! A great drummer too. A tight band. I'm with you!

Carolyn: You'll be as thin as Mick Jagger! :D))
