Tähtivieraita Lähiradiossa
Miehillä on paljon kerrottavaa, Hurriganeshan oli pitkään suorastaan ilmiö, joten lisää pätkiä on tiedossa.
Melko uutena tuolta alempaa oikealta löytyy myös Ken Hensleyn songwriting class, joka sinänsä on melko ainutkertaista materiaalia. Kyseessä on sentään maailmantähti, joka antoi aikaansa ja asiantuntemustaan ihan tavallisille tallaajille, kuka tahansa sai osallistua, vaikkei olisi soittanut tai laulanut ennen.
Mielenkiintoisia katselu- ja kuunteluhetkiä!

A man with a big heart (written 19th of August 2009)
Last night I saw and heard something unusual.
There was this man in Lähiradio, who told us (The people in the studio and everyone who was listening that program from the radio) that he is helping animals, disabled children and musicians, who can't survive on their own.. Why, you ask? Because he loves animals, wants to make those children feel loved and cares for fellow musicians.
He also told us, that he's giving people a chance to make music, even if they can't sing, write notes or play anything, there is a small payment for it, but all the money goes to charity and he is giving his time for free.. Why, you ask?
Because when he learned to play, he did it the wrong way and he wants to help those, who are struggling with the same problems and because he thinks there is a song in everyone.
As I was listening him, I could not help thinking: There's a man who has grown, who understands what's important and what's not, who sleeps well because he lives his life not hurting other
people.
There is a man with a big heart.
But then, you don't have to take my word for it, check it out yourself... Right there on the left,down there, just click your mouse and see...
Yours

Uutta materiaalia!
Lisäksi tarjolla olisi kaksi tallennetta Kepa Salmirinteen kuulumisia ja ehkä myös hieman elämänfilosofiaakin. Kyseessähän on Zero Nine-yhtyeen laulajana tutuksi tullut mies, kuten kaikki muistamme. Bändi on tehnyt levyn ja oli sen tiimoilta kekalla Virgin Oil-nimisessä ravitsemusliikkeessä. Suosittelen lämpimästi katsomaan.

Over the Rainbow 10.10.2009 at Kultturitalo (House of Culture)
I was amazed how small drum kit Bobby Rondinelli had, but after he played old thruth come to my mind, sound and skill of player is more important than large kit !!
Paul Morris was in keys and did professional job, he was playing like a brick in the wall. Also bassist Greg Smith was very good.
Joe Lynn was in "Good mood" and was chatting and telling stories between songs, unfortunately rented backline was giving feedback and house mixer was not up to task and could not handle feedback and was messing sound anyway overall during concert here and there. Joe started to lose his voice towards end of concert, no wonder cause songs by Dio and Bonnet are hard for voice. Many of the songs were performed in a little lower key than originals.
Jurgen was playing black Jackson (and white Stratocaster in "Gates" what really cut throught mix, pity he did play it only one song). There was 2 modern Marshall Stacks what were not on. My cousin who is skilled technician (he does my amp maintenance jobs) said that there were roadie behind stacks adjusting what maybe was amp and stacks lower cabined was miked so maybe it was used, Jurgen also went few times there. As I wrote before mixer was missing mix includung guitar sound here and there. For effects he had two knob floor unit what might be multi-effect, as we heard he used mild Delay or Chorus (or both) on solos and sometimes during songs. It was nice to see that he played with his own influencies and style.
Lenght of the concert was about 2 hours
