Black Roses Community: Thank you for all the question
THANK YOU...for all the questions. We received far more than 100 mails and it was a hard decision to pick just a few out of about 250 questions. But we finally
made it and we think that the interview is quite interesting and funny.
We try to type it up as fast as possible - maybe you get it on sunday already! But if we don't manage it till then, please don't be mad at us. We talked for more than 30 minutes...which means
a lot of words.

New myspace blog: The Rasmus goes back to school...
The Rasmus celebrates their 15th anniversary by playing a gig in the gym hall of Suutarila school in Helsinki. The venue is the same where the band first started their career in 1994 in the school’s Christmas Party.....
Because of the limited capacity of the venue, the event is for invited guests only. The audience consists of a group of old class mates of The Rasmus members, some of the present pupils of Suutarila school and the winners of a special contest run by Irc-Galleria. Irc-Galleria will also broadcast the whole concert as a live stream world wide. Viewing the stream does not require registration to the service.....
IRC-Galleria is one of the largest social networking websites in Finland with over 800 000 weekly users. ....
The event is implemented together with Sulake (the administrative corporation of IRC-Galleria) and Mikkeli University Of Applied Sciences. The multi-camera production is provided by Mikpolis Oy.

The Rasmus surprise gig at school! (rytmi.com)
The Rasmus is celebrating its 15-year career anniversary concerts, which will be held Suutarila secondary school gymnastics hall on Monday 23 November. Rasmus-history's first show was
consulted in 1994 in that same school's Christmas party.
.."I invented it. Now comes the 15 years we ekasta gig there, gymnastics room sweat sock smell ", says Lauri Ylönen rhythm.
"I think it is a good idea to go back there and play the gig to go to this moment for students and invited guests. It would also be nice to ask the site types that were then in the first
keikallakin participate," Lauri continues.
During all the school - especially guys - just did not think kindly of how the band was popular with girls. Yet, it was important to their place of evidence...
.."It was a sense the first time that each of us a more assertive half got up. It was perhaps surprising to many people who knew me just read in the presentation with excitement.
"
"It admits that we were not their own songs in our Kummelin He-man song-shade. It pulled for some reason, a lot better than our own Myself song. We also played Nirvana's Polly gig ... it
was the kind of alphabet soup, " Ylönen laughs and wonders out loud, wondering if Kummeli-song could pull this time.
"Yes, that is Diamond, but should probably ask what the other band of this idea say. Overall, the gymnastics hall returning to the same positive feeling. We do not go there with the
explosives, but just the same style as the case sometimes. "
Ii>I began looking online and thought of what we could do. In the end it became clear that it should be online. I was excited for this and though someone my age would be curious to know
what the teachers may think. (very rough translation here)....
Gig live on the Internet is seen as
Lauri, I regret that the first ever gig clothes have been somewhere along the way in 15 years. In a way, they would have been funny BUSK.
.."Hard to remember what was just then on, but the grunge phase was temmannut us all with him. Was also a colorful hair and a shirt box. Annoying when I have thrown the legendary shirts
off sometimes. Now it is time to put on the end of mageeta consumed in the shirt box, ".. Lauri carved eagerly waiting for the future.
On-site access to celebrate the school's current students Suutarila, The Rasmus members of the former school friends as well as IRC-Galleria in November the winners. Others can share the gig
atmosphere of IRC-Galleria The Rasmus-themed communities in which gig is visible in real time. Stuff with other fans can chat.

The Rasmus singer, Lauri Ylönen interview by Rytmi
Next steps:
“We don’t have a certain timetable for our plans, it’s going under own weights. In a way it’s fascinating that the last record was a maxima scale and brought to the American big world and
a lot of money. Now, if we would make the disc it would be a bit the other end.” says Lauri Ylönen.
“Maybe the album had some high expectations, as it would have cost a million, and then it should have been sold in a certain extent too” he continued.
Making their previous album was still a lesson to learn.
“The previous album had a good record and the time we had on it was necessary to do so. With Desmond working, one can learn a lot but i can not say that we took the most out of it.” Ylönen sums up.
Lauri and Pauli Rantasalmi are both working in a parallel way: Lauri in Finland and Pauli in Singapore, making demos during the summer.
“We’ve been all on our own and working on new stuff. I’m going to Singapore to Pauli and certainly make some sound-recordings during the autumn.” Lauri points out.
The more spice it gives to the situation that The Rasmus is not currently signed with any recording company.
“In a way i can think even that way that now we start from the beginning. The Playground contract expired and we don’t know anything about the future. It might happen that we’ll continue being signed there, or just somewhere else.”
“This is a nice feeling, that seemingly a particular task is completed and we can now again start doing things from a scratch.
The things have changed even with the big record companies and now even the smallest can succeed.
Indeed we also have a company, so nothing is excluded. Should take a look at it.” Lauri thinks peacefully.

We went on this crazy rollercoaster ride, it has been an amazing time. We have travelled to more than 60 countries, from ..India.. to ..Siberia.., met thousands of fans all over the world and enthusiastic people working with our records. And when I look back on these last four records I feel very proud of them. We decided to include most of the singles to the album with a couple of our favorite album tracks, and the new song October & April.”

Lauri and aki had a interview at voice: This is The Rasmus future
The Rasmus Lauri singer and drummer Aki told that in future, they are not necessarily intended to be used at all outside the studios.
The band is preparing for the November release of the disc collection taking place, but over the years has already had time to recording new songs with owned Dynasty Studios in Helsinki.
Lauri says that the band's future, it seems that the next record might be based on these studio recordings, because they have been forced to sad the fact that the demo versions of the energy is lost through studio working.
Now the band has a good recording equipment so that they can record training by versions of the songs, which may form the band's next album.
Lauri showing also the possibility to opt out of all the albums release, the continuous fall in sales volumes. He wonders whether the publication of The Rasmus always one song at a time, as individual albums songs work better internet world.
See Lauri and Aki's thoughts below.

Interview with Lauri and Aki in Hungary
Tölgyi Kriszta made an interview at the Campus festival with the singer Lauri Ylönen and drummer Aki Hakala.
Interview:
In their childhood everyone is dreaming about growing up and being a rock star. You made it. You’ve imagined it like this?
AKI: When I was small my biggest dream was to once become a hero firefighter. But as you can see I’m pretty small. Physically i wasn’t good for it, so they didn’t
accepted me. My second dream was to play drums, and luckily this went good.
LAURI: What concerns me, i wanted to become a rock star when i was younger, but not a singer. I didn’t fancied at all my voice, so i haven’t even thought about it. I still
remember how it was when first i had to listen to myself from cassette. It was weird and i didn’t liked it at all. But i think most people are in the same situation. It’s like you wouldn’t
listen to your own voice, but someone else’s. My sister was who told me to sing. She liked my singing and said it’s worth making it better. I’m grateful to her for this.
And when came the moment when even you yourself believed that your voice is good?
LAURI: Well, … I’m still waiting for that. (laugh)
Since the secondary school you play together, and the time spent together is longer than some of the marriages today. Other bands would maybe be interested, how you do it…
AKI: We are not just simply friends, but more like brothers. If someone for example would need some peace, then we let him to go to a peaceful place and have some rest. There
is a strong relation between us, we respect each other. And i think this makes the job done.
LAURI: Yes, that’s what i wanted to say.
You have defined The Rasmus’ style as death pop, meaning pop music which is dead. For those who are not real fans of you, would you explain what does this exactly means?
LAURI: This is just a funny word we have made up. It seems that all the bands need a category where they would fit in. We were asked all the time to sum up in 2 words what
kind of music we play. But this was almost impossible to do, because we have many influences on us. Most of them from the end of the ’80s and the beginning of ’90s since we grew up listening
to them, and founded our first band then. Most of the rock bands from then are live legends even today. But sure we had influences of more modern music too like Muse or even hip-hop artists.
So, everything of these is in The Rasmus’ songs, but we don’t have strict rules what we can do and what not. We’ve tried a lot of things of those we like. And we would like to do this in the
future too. We are the bosses. We decide and hope, that the fans would also like the new things.
Would like tell me some stuff about your cooperation with Desmond Child producer? If i know right you have made an exciting thing based on a book for movie-makers.
LAURI: Yes, this is true. Desmond Child is a living legend. He have worked together with celebrities like Aerosmith, Alice Cooper and Bon Jovi and a lot more, who i worship
since i was a kid. We had the chance to partially make with him Black Roses. I lived with him for 2-3 months in the USA, in Nashville, and we started a really ambitious plan. Really we used a
book which was made for directors of movies. The authors explained based on Star Wars and E.T. how a really good movie should be built. We took this as a base for our album too. We made up a
basic story and wrote all of the songs like they would fit together. Like each of them would be part of the same story. It happened that we argued for hours long on some lyrics, to be
perfect. Most of the idea of this working plan was Desmond Child’s. I’m grateful, that i could work with him and i feel that since then i can write more exciting music.
In Debrecen, at the Campus festival there were a lot of fans waiting for you hours long before the gig, in front of the hotel and around the stage. Isn’t this tiring sometimes? (she means that fans go to the hotel/airport/backstage and stuff to meet them)
LAURI: No, exactly the opposite. It’s an amazing feeling that already at the airport we meet people who particularly come to see us even if only for a moment. Those most
desperate even wait 10-12 hours for us. This makes me think that once it will the time come when they won’t be curious of us.
Is this a real fear? Are you really afraid of this?
LAURI: Yes, this is together with all the stuff. Who knows what will be in 10-15 years. You know, we have just ended a 8-station tour with Alice Cooper and Scorpions. These
guys are not today’s chicks. They are above 60, so they are twice as old as we are, but they still rock. It’s unbelievable to see them and i just hope that we will be able to do the same
thing they achieved.

Iltalheti Article on the duet with Lauri Ylönen (The Rasmus) and Anette
The Article is basically a bit more about the duet between our boys and Anette Olzon
for the songs 'October in April'...
This is a bit the translation of it:
- The duet will be on the new autumn compilation release that Aki has previously mentioned.
- Lauri says he got on really well with Anette when there were filming the music video
- Anette pretty much says: The Rasmus is a great band and this duet song is absolutely brilliant... and she hopes someday she'll be able to perform the song live with the band.
