Philly 4/30

"make sure he didnt collapse" Fen ......you LUCKY chikk! ;) ;) By the way 1. I hope he was fine in the end!!!!!!! and 2. I soo wish next time YOURS TRULY could make sure...hahahh! ;) Really... :Spin:
 
That's fucking awesome fen. Really a kick ass story. You're right, they're just normal people. Everyone just runs at them for autographs and pics and shit. That's why me gkelter and everyone just waited back, moreso just let them approach us. It was cool like that. People get to obsessive with that shit, like making the members sign about 8 booklets. WTF is that? It's like they don't give a shit, they jsut need a name on paper to make things worthwhile. I thought they were fuckign awesome, and really nice, especially Hennka. I was telling him what an awesome show they put on and shit and he's like "no, you guys were fucking awesome. The fans in Philly always give us a grea welcome." That was fucking awesome. And Jaska and the rest were awesome. Yea Alexi did seem dehydrated and sorta out of it, but he really didn't turn anyone away. He's fucking awesome, but seriously, most people would basically walk by the whole band just to see Alexi, so it's obvious he'd be the most out of it.

FUCKING AMAZING SHOW AND FUCKING AMAZING PEOPLE. Meeting COB really made my fucking life, I just never thought I would, just being able to compliment them and shit, in that one moment they notice you and shit. Alexi has been an inspiration to me to play guitar and meeting him just fufilled so much. Fucking awesome shit.

"We're Children of Bodom and we come from fucking FINLAND!"
"You were THE fucking best audience EVVERRRR. WE LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUU!"
 
Hi, Im veronica im new to this messageboard.
So yea, my story, I had a crazy idea when i found out cob were coming back to philly, I thought maybe they'll let me go on tour with them for a while so I went with it and tryed. I hung out around back and got there just in time when they were doing load-in around 12:00. I had my bags packed expecting them to say yes for about 10 days. but as the day went on i figured, ya know, there really busy ill settle for a few days if they say yes. They came outside later on around 3:00 for a photoshoot and I called henkka over and asked him. he said he had to check with everyone else and i was hanging out with ralph from iced earth and kyle from evergrey most. to make a long story short, alexi came out a little later and I got a pic with him (my scanner isn't working at the moment) hes nice, I was wondering why he seems like he was all 'blahh' now i know, cause he was dehydrated =( .sucks. but i asked alexi and he said 'yea, that would be cool, but only for a couple days or something like that' and I was just like :Spin: wow. awesome. I thought I was still stuck in my dream I had a few nights before :laughs: I think im missing alot of parts that went on but, i forget. Anyways, Hooch (I think he was there, drumtech?) He was really nice to me, he got me a backstage laminate, when he told me he would get it for me, I thought he wasnt serious but i ended up hanging out in bodoms dressing room and later on I felt tierd so hooch took me back to the bus and let me sleep for half hour in his bed. Talia, i didn't know you guys were up there in the front talking or else I would have came and joined yous. There maneger or bus driver ended up kicking me out when I thought I was gonna stay for a few shows :confused: but time came when i had to go. :erk: I had to give my pass back too! :erk: There was this beautiful girl named Faith i met, lots of fishnet and long black hair. I got jealous lol. Overall AWESOME fucking time, the best day I ever had in my life. There all really nice and funny. they probably would have been more outgoing but janne said they all had hangovers from the night before and they thought the audience knew they were sick and I was like 'nope couldn't tell, you guys were great!' I have Jannes cell phone number from him letting me call home from it. but im being faithful and not giving it out. I try text messageing him but he never replys.
I wish I was still with them hanging out (familys downstairs fighting, as always) they made me so calm and forget about problems. Like Fen said, there cool people either way, if they were famous or not id hang out with them.[/B]
 
for the hell of it, here is a pic that will be on the interview page when it's up. I snapped this on the bus, I just asked him to give me a nice drinking pose...:D

VeronicaGirl, that's a pretty crazy story. Yea, me and my friends saw you sitting against the wall the whole time, and when we first met Alexi to get our pic, you were there too. We were also near the bus when we heard the managers saying that there was a 17 year old on the bus, etc etc.. We figured that was you, and then we saw you leave the bus.. That sucks :-/ Sorry to hear it... Still though, those moments with COB must have fucking been awesome.
 
What happened was... the manager called Jaska over. He said "Jaska, come over here. This is FUCKING serious". I heard him say something about a 17 year old girl on the bus... he was kinda flipping out. That's all it was I guess. Being 17 sucks balls.

Heh, thats me in the upper left corner of that pic:loco:

And, yeah, that TsingTao IS really good.
 
yep, plfffft made his way into that one. :D He might have been getting the Corona then. I have a few others i have to upload; one is Roope and the drum tech drunk as hell; my buddy DmanX is in that one. And the one where I asked Jaska to pose for the camera and he made a great face while swigging beer. :D
 
yea, I figured. I should have just lied and said I was 18 but then I thought if they looked through my stuff they would have found my id cards. =\ I should have just not brought em. and also I didn't want to lie to the them.
I hate how a friggin number in this world says everything. my age number may say im 17 but my looks and personality, well maybe 18-19, i think. some people in this world never grow up also, they can be 30 and still act like a kid ya know. age shouldn't matter.

Hey Veronica, sorry you didn't get to travel with them... I agree that the whole age thing is so stupid. Do you remember me? I was like the only other person hanging out back there with you til about 4:00.. (You asked me to watch your stuff) :D
 
yea, basically. I dunno, that's all we overheard anyways.
Still, it's just the legality of it all.. In ways, it's technically fucking kidnapping if they accepted you, and a foreign band does not need legal issues going on in America. Especially COB! *faints* I dunno, it's cool though, at least you got yoru time to shine. They're great fucking guys, if it was up to them, they would have let you still come.
 
hey fen, fucking nice story+pics you gave to us! thanx very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a person like you deserves such a thing
