“We love Mexico, we love it as the same we love their women and tequila. We like a lot the Mexican food, as the same as the Teotihuacàn pyramids, that we visited before. Deciding the include of this songs was not something difficult; we did it because we know that we have many fans over there and because we are grateful with the welcoming that they had to our music”.
“And now we are more happier because we are returning to Mexico. Everybody in here is excited; we want to reach that day to give you a concert full of surprises. I’m not going to tell you what are this surprises, just that it’s special for you”, manifest Pauli, in a side of Lauri Ylönen (vocalist), Eero Heinonen (bassist) and Aki Hakala (drums) that will be performing in the Salon 21 on October 8 and 9.
