My last post is about my latest shows with The Dea My last post is about my latest shows with The Dead Daisies in UK in August 2025. 🇬🇧
Thanks for reading my posts, it has been a great week reliving all these experiences. ☺️

After a nearly heart attack at the Helsinki airport, when they almost did not let me in on the plane due to a little stain in my passport 😮, I finally made it to Cardiff, Wales, my first stop. Yeah, traveling can be stressful at times… But Pamela had the drinks already cold when I arrived and a lot of fun was had. 🥂🥳 A great show, a great crowd with smiley faces. 

Next stop was London. It is always a special feeling in London and this was no exception. Lots of friends present and another amazing, rocking gig! 🎶💥 The atmosphere was up the roof! 

After London it was time for a little break before the grande finale At Stonedead festival. 
What a great, friendly festival with an awesome vibe. The band was on fire and played an intense, energetic set and the crowd loved it! 🔥🔥🔥

Then it was time to say goodbye for a while. ❤️
Thank you The Dead Daisies - the band , management, crew, fans, friends, everyone for being so nice, welcoming and supportive always! 🥰
As I said in my very first post, my life is so much more fun and exciting because of you and I am so grateful for your friendships! 
You guys rock my world!! 🤘🏼🎶🔥❤️🥰

I promised to stick to recent shows that I have no I promised to stick to recent shows that I have not shared before. Well, Pamela did share our little Italian getaway already, but it was so much fun I’ll do it again with my pics. 😁

The first shows for me in 2025 was Milan and Padova, Italy. We celebrated Pamela’s birthday in Milan and my bestie Hanna came along and saw the band for the first time. She’s a fan now. 🥳

The show was awesome, as the pics and videos (1-9) can tell. Italians are passionate people and it showed. 🔥

We were a little cultural too, and went to the famous La Scala theater as well to enjoy some contemporary dance from our own box. 🤩
That’s a great way to do traveling to new cities, time them with your favourite band’s shows and mix it with other things / sightseeing. 👌🏼

After Milan Hanna flew home and me and Pamela went on to Padova. Due to some confusion with the trains we made it last minute to the show. Had to take a slower train but we made the most of it too. 🍷😂

Another killer gig and precious hugs afterwards. ❤️

Traveling & concerts with friends = BEST!! 

Agree??

Today we go back to 2024 again. After seeing the Today we go back to 2024 again. 

After seeing the first shows of the US tour, I made it to UK that year too. 
I there started with the first show as well, which was the nice beach town of Brighton. 
It was nostalgic for me, since I had stayed there for 4 weeks as a teenager on a language course. 😊 Much had changed, but the beach was still the same. 

Ok, back to the topic. My dear friend Mel showing up quite spontaneously was a very nice surprise! 🩷
The show was hot and amazing as always. Let’s let the pics do the talking (1-7). 

From there the journey went on to Southampton. Also a place I don’t think I had ever visited if it wasn’t for the show. Another great gig (pics 8-14) and some strolls around the city. 

After Southampton I went home to work a little to come back for the two last shows. First up was Pamela’s home town Bristol. We always have so much fun together and this time was no different. 👯
At the show we stayed at the back for a while for a different view for a chance but could not… We found ourselves at the front row anyway. 😅 (pics 15-18)

Last but definitely not least up was London. 🤩 London is always very special and big! This time me and my partner in crime Pamela actually stayed a bit further back so no good pictures (only one of Doug) but enjoyed the show to the fullest. It was the last one with Doug for a while and we made the most of it. 🎶🔥⚡️

Thanks again for reading my story. 
Have a great Friday - have fun and crank some Daisies music up loud!! 🤘🏼

Because it’s Doug’s day today, you get another Because it’s Doug’s day today, you get another post! 😁

Since the band has not come to Finland after the only time in 2015, I have gone to see them and brought a little bit of Finland with me. Here is our birthday boy with some of the souvenirs. 😄

1. A little bit of history. 🤓

2. Traditional Finnish pastries - Carelian pies 🥟 (IYKYK)
I brought them from home in a cooler bag with egg-butter, that is supposed to be put on them. The hotel was nice and heated them up for the guys. 😍

3. Well, does this need an explanation?? 😆

First, Happy Birthday Doug!! 
🎶🕺❤️💥🎸

Then, let’s move to more recent Daisies experiences. I just checked, and I have shared my stories here until 2023 a couple of years ago so let’s focus on time after that. 

In June 2024, I quite spontaneously booked flights to New York City. They were playing the Racket the very same night as my plane arrived. Of course the flight was delayed and I just rushed to a cab and threw my stuff in the hotel, called an uber and when I ran upstairs at the venue I could just hear the first chords of Light’Em Up. I made it!! 
I had not told anyone I was coming, so there were some surprised faces. 
It was the first show of this tour, Tommy was back in the drums, the guys were pumped and sounded awesome! The energy was through the roof! 💥⚡️(pics 1-6)
I also got to meet lovely Mika who had just flown from Japan! We are literally from all around the world! 🌍 (pic 9) 

Since there, I had decided to try to make it to New Jersey’s side to Landis theater as well. And to the rescue comes Curt, who was nice to give me a ride with his family. Thank you! 🙏🏼
At Landis there was even more familiar faces; Jeff&Jill, Atsuko.. it’s amazing how you can just pop up somewhere in the world for a concert and always find friends. We are family ❤️
The show was amazing as always, a fulfilled The Dead Daisies experience. 🫶🏼🔥🎶🎸(pics 10-19)

Happy I made the trip, totally worth it, as it always is. Have you travelled to shows? If you have the chance, I highly recommend, it is so much fun!! (Last pic 🙈🤣)
