Good to know the English version is on the way, thanks for the answer, Henkka... and yeah, let's hope nothing is left out...or at least not so much that we'll loose a lot of important and interesting details. The Finnish language seems like one of the hardest to learn so, I don't know how difficult it is to translate into English. I'm sure we all appreciate Mape's efforts. Is he handling the translating too or is that being done by someone else?<br />First print sold out, eh?

How many people do you think started to learn Finnish just for the book? :-)<br />Heard the first print already sold out, congratulations!! I'll wait patiently for the English version and hope that Mape was just playing with us and it'll just be a translation after all :-DSuicideQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12449575598951939709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165338504239519952.post-74177814720918513492014-10-25T12:15:41.764-07:002014-10-25T12:15:41.764-07:00The English version is being translated as we spea...The English version is being translated as we speak so yeah...it'll come out asap.

Hopeful...Ok, well thanks for the brief explanation. Hopefully I'll get a chance to try them sometime in my lifetime.<br /><br />I knew about the book signing session but didn't know the details, for instance that you were going to play live...speaking about the SA book, is there still going to be an English version? I hope so! I read very recently on the forum that some details the Finnish version has will be omitted from the English one. Is that true? I hope not because I think that would defeat the purpose of having the band's whole story told. It would be kind of like if a mother made a baby book of her child and left out the date of birth, first laugh, first Christmas, first step and so on...this might not be the best analogy but I hope you get what I'm saying. I'm looking forward to Sonata Arctica's whole story in English if it's still happening. If not, there'll be a lot of heartbroken fans. Including myself, of course.<br /><br />Anyway, hope you guys had a great time at the book fair! I'm sure you did!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />TMlleCygneNoirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15347284279539343217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165338504239519952.post-74672283398636522642014-10-25T09:26:32.769-07:002014-10-25T09:26:32.769-07:00Very nice to know someone else agrees that Atlanta...Very nice to know someone else agrees that Atlanta's food sucks.<br /><br />And thank you guys so much for signing me and my friend's vinyls. My brain was all sorts of fucked when I got up there and I forgot to thank you guys (and I accidentally handed Elias "Reveal the Change"... oops).<br /><br />My friend didn't have enough money for the meet and greet because of the vinyl he bought, so I dug deep in my piggy bank so he could get it signed.

But I'm sure you're happy to see your family again and be in your own comfortable bed.<br /><br />Acoustic stuff?

Way to go Finns (if other nationalities were included, they too)! <br /><br />Those off-days just sound so hilarious with all that "doing nothing" and eating being the highlight of the day. Well, that one I can relate to... Don't envy you a bit, except for the part when visiting Graceland, that one must have been great. But of course now it's all over, at least for a while.<br /><br />You managed to get one of the last really hot Texas summer days, it's been cooler ever since. But a whole lot nicer still than back home. ;)<br />The whole Dallas show/fanbook thing was pretty insane, so thanks again for everything and hopefully you have had/will have some good times with the book (don't forget to give Make his copy!). And needless to say (but I'll say it anyway, hah), I'm glad you liked your presents. Btw, that reminds me, did you ever find those new boots you were going to buy?<br /><br />According to the pics I've seen you really had some good moments in Tampa :D Pretty crazy stuff, must have been amusing to be on stage.<br /><br />Have fun at the book fair! I managed to read the book (thanks to the person who invented the e-book, whoever that was) and it was quite hysterical at some points. Really enjoyed reading it. Good job guys, especially Mape!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02597058962317166192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165338504239519952.post-67991930620718111992014-10-22T03:15:34.488-07:002014-10-22T03:15:34.488-07:00Karjalan piirakka = Karelian pies.

My Facebook gave me a post for Finnish foods and it was there...<br />So happy that the surprise worked out the way it did! :-) Finally I can stop biting my nails, hehe.<br />No rest for the wicked, huh? After the book fair you'll almost be busy again with preparations for the Russian tour. But at least that won't be a long one :-)<br /><br />Take care!<br />MariaSuicideQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12449575598951939709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7165338504239519952.post-3857636151124898332014-10-22T01:47:10.145-07:002014-10-22T01:47:10.145-07:00You made it, hurray!
