Good day, dear people

I don't like it if the band hasn't got enough time for its fans. Now I feel humble
because I've just realized the fact that if the band is yearning for a big,
worldwide success and if they want to have as much influence on the way the things
are done as we do, then there's simply not enough time to take care of those things
that were once taken for granted like writing messages on the forum, answering
emails, letters and messages sent through the IRC-gallery. And I know, it sucks.

At the moment the situation with the band is such that we're working hard to be able
to go abroad and at the same time we should efficiently try to produce new material
for our next album. Personally this feels quite stressful. The pressure is coming in
from all the directions. We should write songs for the new album, we should
constantly be on tour, we should continuously do some promotion, we should make new
music videos, we should have the new promo pictures done and we should plan and
organize everything by ourselves as far as possible and we should have time to
answer the questions on the forum, the emails, the letters and all other similar
messages, which our band may receive a 1000 pieces on the best of the days. And I
should find time to write in this diary, I should attend to the lessons at the music
institute and in addition to all this, I should somehow manage to maintain my
personal relationships.

I'm not complaining. I really like the fact that there is work but some people don't
understand - let alone believe - that we do all what we can for these things. They
start complaining that we no longer care about our fans and that there's piss in our
heads etc. That really pisses me off, because they're so wrong. It's only that a
person can't be in several places at the same time. That is why I would ask for some
understanding from our fans. After all, the most important thing for us is that we
are able to create good music also in the future. I hope you all agree.


We've been touring a lot and little by little this has become a sort of a routine
and that's merely a good thing. It means that if we think that a gig was a bad one,
the audience doesn't necessarily agree, they may even say that the gig was
excellent. There have been so many gigs that it seems that the 100th gig with this
band member combination will be on 18.10.2006 on M/S Silja Europa. We'll see,
whether there is going to be some special stuff. The most important gig this far
will be on 30.09.2006 in Helsinki at Club Ooppera, because big bosses from the land
of beer and sausages will be there. Hopefully we'll see all of you there partying
and cheering until the ceiling explodes.

That's it. In the future I'll try to write here more often.

P.S. Check out our MySpace site http://www.myspace.com/lovexmusicfinland that has
just been opened. There will be all sorts of material as soon as possible. Vivian Sin'amor
