Wow, I'm not sure I know what to say at all. It's a very bitter sweet moment. I can't say enough kind words about Kari & Pävi, such wonderful , genuine people. They took such good care of us, fed us so very well, they both are excellent cooks. Just opening there home to a bunch of strange men they can hardly understand...thier kindness seems to know no bounds.
Siru...you rock girl!!!!!!!!!!!
I would never have thought last December that the next time I saw Launched would be in Finland but we took up right were we left off and meeting OldRottenHead was such a treat. It's as If I had known them all forever. Truly a great experience that I will never forget!
I'm on the Train  to Tampere, where I will stay the night in a hotel and then fly out at 6:30 tomorrow morning. I'm sad to leave but I do miss my wife and kids very much ...bitter sweet.
They all have a little more time together so...more songs guys!
Songcrafters is a magical place!

It is a magic place indeed brother. Brothers all over the globe. Small world indeed. Safe trip home. That Florida heat will hit you when the plane doors open :-)

Safe trip Thanks for a great MET with still more to come Home on !!

I watched this MET unfold from the start with you Hook. I can honestly say the emotions that you are feeling are also being felt from the songcrafter community. I'm so happy for you... I'm so glad to have reached out via Skype and cell to at least hear your voices. Give the wife and kids a big hug and kiss from all of us... tell them "Songcrafters appreciate the sacrifices they have made". You rock my friend... safe travels.

..so you had to leave also.. that's how it goes when time goes by.. but we'll always have Harjavalta darling.. 9{}

You totally rock also maaaan!!! And are such an incredible human being!! .. 

Have a safe journey back home to your wonderful, beautiful family!!   :)  :)

gimme a bell if you need Turkish lessons. "bir bira lutfen" is the most important phrase if you want a nice effes.

Thanks, will do!

I want kebab street food, washed down with Efes

Just landed in Orlando, no sleep and it's 11pm. I think I might get a room and drove home in the morning.
Rock on friends!

Glad you're back safe thanks for the great music from your Met...

Am sitting with a big latte and a ham roll at arlanda airport Stockholm, completely knackered. But just going through pics and the travelling is now insignificant. Can't wait to get home, but had a blast, and still having a great adventure, especially with currency exchange, I have three currencies on the go, and the coins all look the same. Lol.

No Hesburger, so I'm having BK steakhouse burger with fries. FYI, BK in Finland does not taste like home. It's surprisingly better...

Paid out the ass for a rental car, skipped the room...
Home Sweet Home.

Thanks to everyone for an adventure I'll never forget!

Thank you Hook! It's good that you are safely back home :) drive carefully!!
Thank you Launched and Oldrotten also for very fun and interesting gathering!! Have a safe travel where ever you roam..  :)

That's me in Edinburgh another two hours on bus and train and I should be home. And hey Siru was fabulous meeting you, can't wait to hear the one you have been mixing.

I am exhausted.
