My Music, My Jukebox: Backyard Babies

Here's my second post on "my music, my jukebox". My life hasn't gone any calmer with the horses, work and "stuff" but am still trying to keep up with my promise.

I don't even remember how many years back I got this home burnt cd from a friend. It was my first introduction to the Backyard Babies. And what can I say?! I immediately felt connected with the music and that rock star way of living. True rock stars! It was a couple of years ago that I saw the Babies here in Tampere. After that they got concentrated on their side projects; Nicke Borg on his solo material and his radio show; and Dregen went on to play with Michael Monroe and eventually started working on his own solo album. But last year it was announced that the Babies will work on new music. They have also announced that their 2015 tour will kick of at Sweden Rock Festical in Sölvesborg, Sweden. A month later they will play at Ruisrock in Turku. I'll be there.

So happy to be able to wear my Backyard Babies t-shirt once again. It's not like I couldn't wear it on a daily basis. I just don't want. It's too much of a dear memory. That t-shirt.

ps Backyard Babies also come from Sweden...

I chose here two songs: Roads (taken from their album People Like People Like People Like Us released in 2006) and Say When (taken from their album Stockholm Syndrome released in 2003). Have a listen and make up your own mind!

Because life is a road that is winding and dark

But I swear 'cross my heart so are you

Life is a road that is winding and dark

But I swear 'cross my heart so are you

Now you know it's true I believe in you

Yeah you  know it's true I do care for you

Backyard Babies: Roads

ps if I was a rock star I would definitely play guitar. Just  like Nicke Borg.

My Day, Today

I was asked to share my week (excluding weekend) on Facebook.
I decided to share it here, as well.

These photos represent my Wednesday 23 April, 2014.
The photos refer to work, horseback riding (socks), knitting (I've got some ambitious dreams), late snack, and my new nail color.

My New Tatt

I got my third tatt this morning.
I've been wanting one for quite some time. But, you know, being tatted hurts. I know they say it doesn't but it does. I already got tatts on my wrists and today I got one on my neck. Getting ink on my neck took about an hour, and, yeah, it did hurt.

Here you can see a pic before. And it's all you'll be getting.
PS don't tell my momma.
PSS thanks Riku @Putka Tattoo!
