Hellinor split up
It is now official that Hellinor have split up. I can only speak for myself and
for me it was musical differences that made me lose interrest of the band.
But still, it was fun being in Hellinor for a few months and I got myself some
new experiences that I will have great use of in the future.
I wish the rest of Hellinor all the luck with their future projects!
In The Future To Come
Plans are being made for the new year but I won't reveal all of them now.
All I can reveal now is that new Rockbusters gigs are booked in Finland and at
Engelen in 2010. Check out the live section in January 2010 for the exact dates.
And don't miss Rockbusters at Engelen next week, December 1-5.

Mitch Malloy - Live From Rock City DVD release
Press Release: "Finally, after almost twenty years of waiting, Mitch Malloy
fans will have the opportunity to actually see Mitch Malloy live in their own
living room as Firefest and Mitch prepare to release Mitch's first live concert DVD.
Recorded live at Firefest 5 in October 2008 in front of an army of Malloy fans,
Live from Rock City catches Mitch and his band - Tommy Denander (guitar),
Victor Broden (bass) and Magnus Ulfstedt (drums) pounding out favourite
after favourite including nine tracks from the classic debut album, including
Mission of Love, Cowboy and the Ballerina, Nobody Wins in This War and,
of course, the seminal Anything at All.
The Mitch Malloy set at Firefest 5 was one of the most anticipated
in the event's history and it more than lived up to expectation.
The band, the crowd, the reaction ... it's all contained on Live from Rock City.
It's a personal memento for anyone that attended the show, but more than
that it's an opportunity for Malloy fans worldwide to finally see Mitch and his
band do what they do best - ROCK!

Mitch had this to say about the forthcoming DVD:
“This DVD is something I have wanted to do since I was a kid. I am proud and
honoured that you all are part of it. The fans were the real stars of this video
and I insisted they got a lot of camera time. I just wish I knew every fan's name
who was there as it is you guys I really want to thank.
So let me say thank you to all the fans who travelled great distances to see the show
- without you there is no show. And now you can see it whenever you want.”

Once again, the winner is...
Last night Hellinor won the Stockholm final of Emergenza...whatever that means?
I have no clue what the next move will be. All I know for sure is that Emergenza is
a competition for beginners (or amateures if you like) and that you'll get treated
that way by the unprofessional staff. Been there, done that...20 years ago.
Anyway. To all you Hellinores who woted for us: Thanx for your support!!!

Gig news
All Rockbusters gigs at Riddar Jacob has been cancelled. According
to the owner of the club there's a lack of interest from the audience

Introducing:
A couple of weeks ago I did a gig with the band Hellinor, a one off thing I
thought. It turned out they were so satisfied with my drumming that they
asked me to become a permanent member of the band. I accepted the offer.
Gigs are booked for Spring and plans are being made to hit the studio.
