This was probably most revealing and honest interview with Ville in years. It must be because they're so good friends and Jussi69 has very good questions.

I checked yesterday Ville was his guest 5 nights in a row in late 2012 just before Tears on Tape

and you can find audio from each date EXCEPT the one where he's talking about facebook scam and all those girls.  I really wanted to hear that but this person didn't record it and now it's impossible to find.  

Anyway @Isa thanks again. Lots of new info for me. haha

I was just watching this again, it's funny when he's watching video of his young-self

he wanted "big church wedding"  

 

@Isa he talks so fast here, try to catch up haha

it's funny how he's so knowledgeable about Finnish and world music and Antti has no idea who he's talking about.

I can't catch up  my finnish is basically "Hei, miten voit? Nimeni Isabella, olen brasilialäinen. Mä rakastan paljon Ville Valo" hahahha i don't even know if the paljon is in the right place, i'm a beginner hahaha it's really hard, i want to take classes but i don't think we have it here in Brazil, i'll have to learn when I go to Finland, i'll ask Ville to help me when I meet him  hahahah

Love these interviews!

And oh Gosh, the pics you're posting... Beautiful

Well, the review that @Sister asked me to, I'll do it now haha

I got to the venue really early that day, and I left a friend caring for my spot while I went to the airport to see them arriving, BUT i got to the wrong airport  and then, i came back to the venue and waited there until they arrive. They entered the gig's place by the front, so I was able to see them REAAAAALLY close, i have a video of it if anyone would like to see, it's on my tumblr haha I touched Mige and talked to him but he was in a hurry and didn't give me attention  it's okay, tho hahaha and well, after that, they opened for us to get in and I took a good spot right in front of Linde, thank God. 

The show started at 8 pm, on point. The band got really late to the venue because of the traffic, they didn't have time to soundcheck. They started with Buried Alive By Love, as the usual, then Poison Girl. Poison Girl was memorable to me because I was right in front of him showing my teddy bear, and he looked and made a cute face to my teddy bear, so I kind of freaked out hahah then they played Kiss Of Dawn. The sound was kind of bad, Ville seemed a little upset about it, he complained about the mic all the time, but he smiled a lot at us, because we were singing like crazy. Then they played Pretending, which was even more special, cause I threw my teddy, and he knew it was me. It is so good to stay near the stage at a HIM's concert because the interaction Ville makes with the fans is eye contact, smiles, laugh... He seems to appreciate when you sing back to him, and he's interested on what you want to show him, he looks at you, he makes you feel important in that place, and this made me really really happy, I was waiting for so long and finally he was right in front of me, I couldn't believe it. They played the classic ones... Most memorable was Razorblade Kiss, which was a totally surprise for everyone, and since it's my favorite Razorblade Romance's song, I just couldn't believe, I started crying because i'm silly hahaha and I sung like a crazy person so Ville laughed at me on that song hahaha. He interacted a lot with the people who was right in the front. Everytime people raised something, like a poster or a flag, he would bent to read it, and to show he cares. He would smile, or laugh, or make a sign of thank you . I have to say that in the middle of the concert, something that we were afraid of happened. There was another show scheduled after HIM's gig, and we were afraid that it would pressure them to finnish the concert faster. The production told us it wasn't going to happen, but it did. After some songs, Ville said "we can't play anymore, they want us out of here", and then he looked at Mige and Linde, and they started to talk. We were desperate saying NO PLEASE STAAY, and then Ville said "they want us to **** off. But we'll stay until they kick us out." and we went crazy hahaha he talked a lot in that gig, but i don't know everything he said because i couldn't understand some things, and also because i can't remember right now. I know that before When Love And Death Embrace, Ville said "it is a song Linde wrote when he was brokenhearted" and laughed. They were chilling that night, despite all the problems with the sound and the production. Ville started to mess with the songs, they didn't know what they were going to play at some point, even in the setlist was like "???", and then they ended up playing Razorblade Kiss, which Ville asked Kosmo if it was okay, since it was a song he never had played live before, and even the guys, they haven't been playing that song for a long time. But it went great. Then they did Soul On Fire and WLADE/MUBBELS. I was sad because they didn't play any of Tears On Tape or Screamwork's songs, which they played in all the other places here in South America  but it's okay, the show was AMAZING anyway. So it lasted one hour and 30 minutes, the last song was Rebel Yell. Ville tried to say Obrigado (which is thank you in portuguese, actually i think it was at the beginning), and then they left. They were pretty hot too, i mean, the weather was really warm, and they were with sueters. Linde didn't handle it and took off his sueter in the middle of the show haha. And that was it, after it ended I waited for them to get out of there by the front again, and they did, and it was the last time I saw Ville  I tried to see him leaving at the airport the next day but they were SO early and when I got there, they had already departured, I cried so hard at that airport hahah but it's okay, i'll have other chances to meet them hopefully, and I hope Ville got my teddy with the letter attached to it. People say they get the gifts people throw to the stage for them, so I hope he got and read it 

Well, it's a pretty long review, sorry hahaha but yeah, that was it  I miss that day so much haha 

Sorry my bad english 

I'll try to go to Helldone next year, I hope I will do it 

[lego 44,165]

You might have to clear your browser for this site, to make it compatible. This site is newly upgraded. I will write it out in case you do not know and sometimes it still gives me more problems to post pictures, but I work my way around it. Go find a picture and right click copy, of course. Come here and press ctrl and right click your picture info that you saved and it should come up, "paste without form" choose that and then it usually comes up in your post without trouble, but sometimes another notice comes up in a box and you must paste it there and "okay" and then it will show up in your post. It is the same with videos too.

Good Luck~

Your write up is Wonderful and Thank You for sharing. I love to hear the fan's full experience and what they were feeling and all of the adrenaline. It sounds like an awesome day for all and especially You, even with all the drama from that fanclub that you had to endure. It is fantastic that you got to hear your favorite song as well. I hope that You will make it to Helldone next year.

Ville must be Super with all of the fan interaction, he surely has to drive the show and create the vibe for the night.
