Well, Ville... Fanship somes and goes, hopefully among us on this board - stays. I believe we´re all goin thru different phases, not always simultaneously.
I´m in my first enthusiastic phase, not thanks to my age (in spite of it, really) because I´m 41 - I admire Kent a lot, young but fan since not so short time; and the entusiasm´s there.
One of the most burning fans I´ve met was Ove - the mythological & one & only Tingvall - met him at the same time as I met Ville, and we tried to drain the nameless bar in the Avenyn in Göteborg 1½ weeks ago. Ove is worried about the new album, tensed. I think I can sense the same thing at Ville... I amire both of you, cool, scarred geezers; not easily touched. But now you´ll be. Touched and moved.
BowieStone will be proved wrong. And erikjjf. And Rank Outsider. And you, Ville; though - smart done - you have left a space for a Surprise Surprise... We all saw the 10th of May, PC-concert that is. And most of us have seen the rehearsal video clip at Rs.com or at other sites.
Remember where you read it: Here & now.
I said the same before PS; everyone did surrender - for some days everybody was on my wavelength. Then suddenly many here forgot the groove & roll at the PC-show.
The boys have a f*ckng atom bomb in their pockets; just like the one Jagger once (back in Dartford early classes) said he was going to build & blow up the world with.
