Scream for Me Finland! — Kansainvälistä hevikeikkahistoriaa 1980-luvun Suomessa

I was too young in the 1980s to go to any of the gigs mentioned in the book, but I saw some of these bands later. The book tells how different the event organising and the gig culture were in Finland of the 1980s. Extremely bossy and inflexible security, lights on to the whole venue when the audience gets too excited and obviously a lot of stories about rock & roll lifestyle with, booze, drugs and the girls. Nowadays, event organisers are hard boiled professionals, but the security guys haven't become much better. I remember being yelled at during a Motörhead gig in 2008 because I had the guts to stand up from my seat. I only did it because Lemmy asked everyone to stand up! Anyway, if you've been going to gigs in Finland and are a big fan of Iron Maiden, Dio, Motörhead, Rainbow or Metallica, you might be interested in reading this book.
