we were asked to play at Vuoritalo on new year's eve. it solved
our annual problem, now we don't have to stress where to spend the eve
and we don't have to watch dumb drunken Finns vomiting and fighting in
the central of Helsinki.
we played Face the Reality as a happy birthday song for Tapio Pajari who
celebrated his birthday on 15th day at Vastavirta-klubi. we also
played two new songs: "Preeria" and our newest song that has no name
yet. i didn't realize until now that the gig at Vastavirta-klubi
was our 50th gig!! it doesn't feel like that at all. maybe it's
because we were so young when we first started to play...fortunately
we don't sound anymore the same we did in our first gig in may 2001
...:D

we have started to practise regurarly again. we have two new songs and
we are concentrating to make much more. hopefully we are
ready to do more gigs next year.
i think our
shitty car is somewhere in Moscov now. it finally broke down at
the beginning of Ristisaatto's tour on september. i guess
it would have cost too much for us if we had continuing repairing it
so it was best to leave it there.
we were
celebrating Halloween at Peppi's place. friends,
crazy costumes, alcohol and great atmosphere. and of course, we
listened some really scary music, mostly King Diamond and some 1980's
macho heavy rock.
this is
a creepy video clip from vastavirta-klubi, august 12th.

we are back! read what happened us in Europe from
Marika's tour diary!
we decided to have a little break from the responsibilities in the
summer and not to rehearse until august. i think it was a good
decision 'cause after the tour we all were quite exhausted. we spent our summer
vacation mostly in a park with our friends, going to
gigs and stuff like that.
we were supposed to play with Ristisaatto and
Neuroottiset Pelimannit at Punk'n Roll 2005 in
Kilingi-Nõmme, Estonia but the evil spirit of the
King of the Hill boy
Bobby interfered again... Katja and Markus had their passports in some
passport company which went bankrupt couple of days before the
festivals so only Neuroottiset
Pelimannit was able to play there. what a pity! hope they get the
passports before Ristisaatto's tour on September...
by the way, there are three songs from us on the new
Finnish feminist/female fronted
punk compilation cdr, order it from
slut sisters distro!

we had a busy weekend 'cause we were in the studio, in Tampere,
recording some new stuff. we started out from Vuoritalo on
Saturday morning. first we almost couldn't fit all of our stuff into the private car because there
were two dogs, one big amp, instruments, us four and Markus driving
the car. when we finally found the right road and arrived to the Napalm
Studio the computer broke up after recording one song. after three
hours of waiting it started to work again and we recorded the other
nine songs. it was kind of late and we were exhausted so we decided
to go to Kuljun Työväentalo.
on sunday we continued to record guitar, bass and vocals. we recorded
all of our ten songs in eight hours which is quite a long time for us
because last time we recorded five songs in one hour. Peppi has to go
back to the studio next week to re-record some of the songs because
she catched a cold on Saturday night. however, we are satisfied with
the results, Panu did a good job. go to the mp3-section to get
foretaste!
i almost forgot,
we bought a car on Saturday with Ristisaatto, it's a van for nine
person and it cost only 1500 euros. Europe, here we come! :D

the eve of the first of May was cold as always but fortunately it
didn't rain. there was an anarcho feministic evening at VT-klubi on
saturday and i took some pictures of the bands, i try to upload them
as soon as i can.
i changed the outfit and added some new sections. there's finally new
live-videos in the audio section but the quality is not the best and
it might take a while to download them.

Marika had her 24th birthday couple of weeks ago and we were
celebrating it at
Pasila's
Rauhanasema. we bought her a
bottle of wine and a ticket to the gig as a birthday present. last
weekend we played at
Käpylä's
Spring Festival and Chicken Leg finally lost its virginity. the
weather was warm during the whole weekend. it was nice to sit
outside, drink cold beer and hang out with our friends.

we
have played three gigs during one week so we have been quite busy.
it's a good practise for the upcoming tour we are going to on june
with Ristisaatto. the gig at VT-klubi was kind of sick as you might
see from the pictures. still, it was fun to play there because of the
supporting crowd. Eva's bass broke on that night so she had to play
all the three gigs with a different bass.
the place we played in Rekola was actually an old cinema. while the
bands were playing the audience just sat and stared quietly like they
were watching some movie! very strange evening but a good change.
only couple of days before friday's gig we been told that there were
no drums or amps at Siperia so we had to borrow the instruments from
the place we are rehearsing and that's why the sounds were doubtful.
usually it's us who come to the gigs without any proper equipments so
i guess we had to taste our own medicine... Peppi was sick and could
barely speak before the gig but after drinking some hot water and raw
booze the voice came back. the Estonians were the best crowd ever,
thank you!

Eva
moved yesterday so all of the creeps are now living in Helsinki .
it's great 'cause now she doesn't have to travel such a long way to
the rehearsals etc.
we have a new song called "Chicken
Leg". there's probably our first real guitar solo ever in the
song. but we think that too long guitar solos are boring anyway.
we played at Vastavirta-klubi on saturday. there were also
Neuroottiset Pelimannit and Kasapanos (Katja's new band). Marika had
some problems with her shoelaces so she fucked up all the time. still,
it was a fun night and we spent most of the night at the backstage
because the food there was so delicious.

happy new year!
we had a gig on december 18th at TVO, Turku. i added some pictures
from the gig, including couple of pics of the other bands there (Kara
Kuniklo, Pie Delay, Girl Germs and Khatarina). the atmosphere at TVO
was good and it was very entertaining to watch the orher grrls
playing. thanks to Kiira for arranging this night and to teo for
giving us a ride there. we played two new songs, you can find the
lyrics of our newest song in the lyrics-section (we haven't named it
yet)...

last time we started to make a new song, this time the lyrics are in
finnish. now we are trying to pull ourself together and be more
