Lmao, I want that song in an MP3 form!

Surprising to see Tony and Henrik playing with guitars, too. I imagine they picked up a thing or two from Marko and Jani on tour, but it's weird seeing them without their traditional instruments.

Wow... you guys are friggin awesome musicians to do all that in such a short amount of time. The sad thing is that a lot of metal bands aren't even that good on their actual albums, and you two were just fooling around! You guys are by far my favorite metal band, and I hope to get to see you play at Jaxx later in the fall. (I am sad Jani won't be there, though!)

in case none of you knew, Jani is not there for a reason. He is doing civil duties for his country and will not be there for the USA/Mexico/Canada/Japan tour. He has been temporarily replaced by Elias Viljanen.

I don't know what's more disturbing. The fact that there's a "Flammable" plackard on the wall, or the fact that I have the same pants as Henrik. I think the pants thing wins. Hahahahaha. This is exactly what I needed to wake up to. Da best song EVAR. I want to enter the contest, demn it. =[
