Rock'n'Roll in Turku with The Flaming Sideburns

As promised a few days ago, some snapshots of the Flaming Sideburns show at "Dynamo Klubi" in Turku / Finland on last week's Saturday (10th November 2018) can be found on my additional blog "Sound Kitchen Archives" now: https://sound-kitchen-archives.blogspot.com/2018/11/photo-gallery-flaming-sideburns-live-in.html. 

Two days after the show, The Flaming Sideburns posted the following statement on their facebook page: "Some people claim that rock and roll is dead but obviously no-one's informed The Flaming Sideburns of the tragic news." I couldn't agree more, and I can't remember the last time I looked forward to a gig so much. In times of VIP ticket packages, instagramania and spectacularisation overall, it is truly a relief to see that they still exist: Bands that just rock. Bands whose shows deliver quintessential Rock'n'Roll. Bands like The Flaming Sideburns. 

By the way: Their merchandising rocks, too...

Trophies of the day: A tote bag and a poster

Last but not least, here is an audiovisual impression of the band's performance at "Dynamo Klubi"... Enjoy!

 

 

Launch of the additional blog "Sound Kitchen Archives"

For me, this week began with the launch of an additional blog, called "Sound Kitchen Archives". As the name suggests, "Sound Kitchen Archives" is first and foremost an archive of my older works, particularly works that cannot be found on the world wide web (anymore).

I've been thinking about such a blog for a very long time, and after a wonderful weekend with my love and friends of ours in Finland's capital Helsinki, I decided more or less spontaneously to finally just go for it.

More about the idea behind "Sound Kitchen Archives" can be found here: https://sound-kitchen-archives.blogspot.com/2018/11/introduction.html.

With the additional blog, I can also keep my professional life and my private life more separated from each other. But don't worry: Both blogs will be updated equally. 

Coming up next are some snapshots of The Flaming Sideburns who played a show in Turku / Finland, our place of residence, last night... Stay tuned! 

 

Celebrating our birthdays with The Local Band in Tampere

There are only three months left of the year 2018, and in terms of concerts, the year 2018 has been rather quiet so far. Only two concert visits. 

The second concert was in July 2018 when the Michael Monroe Band played a show in Salo / Finland. 

The first concert was in March 2018 when we celebrated our birthdays with The Local Band at "Tullikamarin Pakkahuone" in Tampere / Finland. Here are some snapshots of said gig, plus a video... Enjoy! ♥

New YouTube channel up and running, first video uploaded

Finally, my new YouTube channel is up and running, called "Stefanie Nysand [Sound Kitchen]" (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCf9jA5aMMkHuJ5c_LXK0YZw/videos).

The very first video I just uploaded there is the one of the always amazing Michael Monroe Band which performed in Salo / Finland last week... Enjoy! ♥ 

Further pictures of the event will be posted on this very blog soon. 

What has to be done, has to be done...

It is strange to see this part of our bedroom being so empty. It seems like it was yesterday when we furnished this part of our bedroom (even though it's almost six years ago...), but what has to be done, has to be done. Stagnation is death. 

 

Welcome to my new blog!

So, here it is: My new blog, "Stefanie Nysand [Sound Kitchen]".

My love and I got married on 15th October 2017 in the Turku Castle in Finland, and in the course of it, my name changed from "Stefanie Singh" to "Stefanie Nysand", hence a new blog with my new name.

Our marriage announcement which was published 

on 12th November 2017 in "Hufvudstadsbladet"

My old blog, "Stefanie Singh [Sound Kitchen]", will be preserved as a kind of archive.

Rock'n'Roll!

Stefanie
