So I watched the video, read the "transcript" article and the translation(they are all diffrent), got some reliable sources, went and read some trashy finnish mags about his love life, and rubbed my braincells together. This is what I get out of everything.....
Please understand most of the things below is VERY SILLY B.S. I dont want to offend anyone.
Sooooooooooooo, let me explain the above picture! Not only is this the first shows in a couple years and everyone is preasureing for perfect because the pre-show was great, but all his girlfreinds are in town, the one hes soposedly engaged/secretly married to is preggers and they were out at dinner (no pics haha, those articles have been called lies and removed), while getting botox injections cause he looks soooo much yonger(really?! I thought thats what happens when you take care of yourself and similar style), and he was soooo drunk(seriously, if you can still play guitar and sing with all that shit going on, your not very drunk( do people know what drunk is?)) BTW WHERE is the so bad screw up again? I cant find any firm evidence about it, I did find a video of The Sacrament on the 28th that was funny, I couldnt remember the lyrics either. :D But the whole song was there, not butchered, and many others. And then I found this review of the 28th that makes sense and readable and written by a seemingly level headed person. I could be wrong, that happens often, lol. XD
I loved your comment! I was there on the 28th (and the 29th) and it wasn't as bad as they say. I was relatively close to the stage and I know the vibe there was different. Some friends who were in the back, said that they couldn't hear what he was saying like 90% of the time and that most ppl were talking to each other and not paying much attention to the band. I also noticed that many ppl were off doing their own thing...which was really weird considering they had paid 60 euros to be there! I realized Ville noticed that too, that's why he made the...pretend that you like us...comment. But generally they were really good. Yeah, he talked a lot in between the songs....so this is supposed to be bad? I happen to enjoy his rants and so do other ppl! He seemed happy and confident...and I haven't seen him/gotten that vibe of him in years tbh. And the way he handled forgetting the lyrics (while singing The Sacrament) was really sweet I thought. I actually enjoyed the gig a lot...and was really sad to see all the bad reviews 'coz I felt they were blowing things out of proportion. That's my opinion at least^^ Thanks @rakastaa_him for the post! And Happy 2013 everyone! :)
lol i love his rants too! when my friend and i went to see them in NYC back in 2010 she (who is not a huge HIM fan and went mainly for my benefit) said that she was impressed with the way he talks to the audience and often interacts with them.
Awww that's sweet (esp. since your friend isn't a huge fan of the band :) I feel like sth is missing from the gig if he isn't very 'chatty' that day :) Ahhh anyw. hope we have an album release date soon and a world tour to look forward to^^
Aww thanks! I was worried about pissing people off but sometimes you just have to say something. :) sometimes I think people get so used to their ipods they forget what shows are like, its not like he suddenly got talkative, lol, some just need a scapegoat vs reality.
I don't have time to post it now but the new kerrang makes me so glad hearing he doesn't feel like there's a train at the end of the tunnel. :)
Oh yes, exactly! Exactly! Ohhh...there's a HIM interview in the new Kerrang? Nice! I hope you or sb else has a bit of time to share it with the rest of us :) I'm glad to hear that he feels that way though! :)

But why do some people peck at others like canibalistic chickens? Ugh.
