:(sad to hear that you didn´t have any womble meeting before the gig..or after it.I got an SMS from MarkoJii and he said that he and his finnish posse didn´t meet any fellow wombles; strange! Are the british that shy;)
Maby tonight in Oxford, there´s somekinda meeting…
BTW; did anyone meet Andy, Michael or Neil before the gig or after it?
Petri

:)Marko, I´ll transfer you some money in a couple of days so you can buy me (from London or Oxford) couple of the new t-shirts and I´d like to have the hoodie too…but if it´s only L size it fits Kati, not me…but whatta hell, I´ll have to get rid of my stomach, heh!:)
..and one beanie too…
Greetz,
Petri

:)Hi folks!!
How much did the new t-shirts cost (in euros) and what is that “hat”; is it a beanie or a cap?
Was there anything other stuff for sale; badges, stickers…etc?
Petri

Nice setlist, but where was Rock you monkeys and Dead…? They should play those songs at the other gigs cause those are the killer ones among Long Distance (which is their BEST song to date..I still think so cause it still gives me shivers down my spine every time I hear it:):))
Die laughing is a good song but wasn´t it time to replace it with another song…;)
Still keeping my fingers crossed that they will play Finland in the beginning of 2005…Hope they´ll come as they promised:)
Tavastia is their “second home”…:)
Petri

:)In my hometown Tampere at Klubi. Then in Helsinki at Tavastia which has always been a great place for T? to play and it has always been packed..:)
Petri

:) Hope they will come to Finland before christmas, that would be a perfect christmaspresent for us finnish womblers…:)And if Tampere is also on the giglist, I´m REALLLLYYY HAPPYYYY!!!!!:):)
Petri

…they could start here from Tampere on friday (Klubi), then Helsinki(Tavastia) on saturday and Turku (Turun klubi) on sunday…Then on monday back to work or take a ferry to Stockholm (Gino, maby..) and see them play there.:p
Andy, Michael and Neil; don´t forget us finnish womble fellows!!!:)
Petri

Yes, many thanks and respect to those two little girls who gave their places to us for the time of T? gig. This is how it works!! You girls ROCK!!!:):)

Nice news Sascha!:) Keep your mobilephone open! Let´s send some SMS so we can find each other at the area. Haven´t been to Ruissalo and Ruisrock since 95 so don´t remember how it looks like there etc. Let´s have a really good time down there and enjoy all the good bands!
We´ll attend Turku on saturday somewhere around 11 and check at our hotel first.
Maby we should have our WOMBLE meet somewhere around 11.30 -13.30. We don´t want to miss Backyard babies and Tehosekoitin.
Let´s hope that they wiil bring with them some new merchandise.;)
Pete and Kati:)
Tampererockcity

:)Nice news Sascha! So we will see there at the frontrow and bang our heads and necks sick once again!:)

And to all other wombles too; let´s have a meet before the gig somewhere during the (hopefully)sunny sunday afternoon:)

:) When I got the news from Marko this morning I jumped one m in the air; there is a GOD after all there above and he has heard our prayers:)!!!
This REALLY made my day!! And whatta bill there is, this is a DREAM COME TRUE lineup for a festival!
Thanx Andy, Michael and Neil, I guess you remembered us finnish Wombles when we spoke to you back there in St Peterburg about the Ruisrock festival…and you got the the invitation from Mr Merimaa (thank you Mr Merimaa, our emails has been read after all, I guess!!!:)
This makes our summer!!!:):):)

Petri and Kati
Tampererockcity

PS; and Sascha, It seems that you have to come to Finland after all this summer:)! Let´s see then!

Title: Motörhead tour

:) HI again you fellow T? maniacs! Did Andy mean the coming autumn 2004 UK gigs. Just want know cause it would be a dreamcometruegig for me; Therapy? and Motörhead at a same gig!!!Huh, huh, I´m sweating already; have to get me in shape before that kinda gig:)

Title: Supporting Motörhead…

:) I heard that Andy has told someone at the Cork gig that T? will be supporting MH on their tour in near future..Is it the forthcoming Motörhead European festivals tour or the late autumn UK tour..? If it is the the summer one, Therapy? will play Ruisrock then here in Finland!!!???:):)

Petri

Can there be life after a T? gig?
What can I say; The whole trip to Russia was fantastic and really excitning. The gig was really great and they played like they had always played as trio.
The crowd was amazing; big hand for the Russian fans! I was in the front row as usual and it was like one big family rocking themself crazy to T? music, no motherfuckers out there making trouble..
The new song wasn´t that good but I ´ll guess it will “grow up” when it´s done ready..

It was nice to meet the lads once again after the show; we took photos and got setlist signed. We talked about next summer´s festival gigs; and now: ALL FINNISH T? FANS, CONTACT MERIMAA (Tavastia Klubi mainman) SO HE WILL (HOPEFULLY) BOOK THEM ON ONE OF HIS FESTIVALS!!!!ANDY, MICHAEL and NEIL ARE WAITING FOR AN INVITATION TO COME AND PLAY HERE IN FINLAND NEXT SUMMER! It´s really shame if they only play Holland, Germany, Belgian etc. gigs next summer and not Finland. Hope they´ll come also to Russia again in near future cause Russians really deserve them to play there!!

Thanks to THERAPY? for a really amazing and magnificent gig.
Thanks and Greetings to MINNA and MARKO, SASCHA and her girlfriend and the friend (sorry but we forgot their names)
and LIAM (thanks for the water during the show, It was really needed..)!
And folks; no video from the show this time, maby next time…
Petri and Kati, Tampere RockCity, Finland

Yeah, seven days only left…Have to check the local recordshops too if they´re is something interesting around.
Photos will be taken and maby something else too if everything works out fine…

Tavastia 02.11.03 was my 7th Finnish gig and best so far.
If I was a rich man I would fly right now to Norway…
Petri

Title: What can I say…

I´m speechless. This was the 7th gig for me and my girlfriend Kati and it was defitenitly the best one we have seen…
Yes, it was really nice to chat with other fans at the bar 28.
Got also stuff signed and photos taken with lads before the gig and after the gig.
Michael told me after the show that they´re comin 99%ly next summer to Finland and play on some of ours festivals and guess that it will be either Ruisrock or Ankkarock…
Merimaa who is in charge at Tavastia is also the mainorganizer at these festivals and he looked really satisfied also after the gig.
So, THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN THERAPY!!!! Minna, Marko, Sascha + his friend from Russia, Finnish Fiend and all the other buddies. It was a great evening!
Petri

Good idea Finnish fiend! Ois mukava heittää läppää tuttujen ja tuntemattomien fanien kanssa. Let´s meet there couple hour before they open the Tavastia doors. And don´t forget to put your T? t-shirts on…
Pete

Title: Helsinki!

Thank god, It seems that our prayers have been heard there above…

Title: Helsinki and Tampere

The shows were just great! The atmosphere on the both gigs was brilliant. Even the youngsters of the audiences seemed to know the words of the older songs.

The Tampere gig was like a “dream come to true” for me cause I have always wished that came and played here. And it became true.
Thanks for Marko and Minna shearing the both gigs with me and Kati.

And it was relly great to meet Andy and the guys before and after the gigs, just great guys and no rockstar bullshit. Andy told me that possibly before christmas, there will be an E.P. out so let´s hope that we don´t have to wait for new material til 2003. Hopefully they will come to some finnish festival next summer. Tammerfest here in Tampere would just be great!
Pete

Seems like my dreams finally came true; two gigs here in Finland and one of them in my hometown Tampere!!!! Jippiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, the best news for this year so far!
Pete

Wake up T?; where is a Finnish or Swedish date??? You have fans here too; remember the 98 date at the Tavastia club in Helsinki (19.11.1998); the venue was almost sold out and the crowd went just nuts!!! A gig to remember!!
So you must come here and if it’s too hard to cross that ocean between Finland and Sweden, come to Stockholm so we Finnish fans can witness again the craziness at your show and enjoy the great music!
Pete

I’ve seen them four times here in Finland:
1994 at the Provinssirock festival in Seinäjoki
1995 at the Tavastia club in Helsinki
1998 again at the Tavastia club in Helsinki(I have some of the set on video, my girlfrind did it..)
and at
2000 at the Nummirockfestival in Kauhajoki(also on video..)
There I met the band first time face to face. It was great!
Hope they come to our country next year too! Andy promised that they would come… But maby it takes couple of years again…
