† Dearest Jay,

The Sacrament is my HIM site of choice, so I thought I should send you pictures of the HIM concert, and inform you of the Mige and Linde interview my poor wasted cousin managed to get. You see, both of us are pure bred Finns living in North America, and we have ties to the (canadian) Lower Mainland Finnish Newspaper. The whole idea was to use our Finnish ties and paper connections to get backstage, and it worked for my cousin. Unfourtunately the Finn side of her became too much, and the many shots of liquor she consumed before the interview became too much.

About half way through the interview all the alcohol she drank before, and the beer that Mige kept giving her kicked in. All she remembers is scribbling and actually making Linde smile. (We know how hard that is.) She asked one question about Ville Valo's engagement regarding a rumour she had heard that they were getting married after the tour, and Mige said that they are just engaged and have no idea when they were getting married.

If we get a hold of the papers that she was writing on during the interview,
I will inform you of the very blury interview.

HIM played the following songs, but not necessarily in that order. (I don't
think I am forgetting anything...)

Vampire Heart
Right here in my arms
Under the Rose
Your sweet six six six
wicked game
Join Me
killing loneliness
Behind the Crimson Door
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
Play dead
It is all tears
Razorblade Kiss
Funeral of Hearts
Soul on Fire
The Sacrament
Buried alive by love

My poor sweet cousin mentioned this site she said, so now the word is out. Excellent show.

For the encore, just Burton came out to Ville's mic, raised his hands to his
side and said "CAN YOU DIG IT?!"

and they played the Sacrament.

Alright, well that is all
Tally ho sweetheart.
