Broken arm didn’t stopped Lauri to perform [Lithuania]

Yesterday Lauri showed up at ”Purpurinė naktis” with broken arm. Lauri broke his arm when he was skateboardig in Helsinki.
”Nice color. Much better than this green sash” says the singer. He came to Vilnius to sing one song.
”This time I will sing just one song, but I’ll be back to Lithuania in summer and you will be able to hear more songs from my solo album” said Lauri before the show.
He told that music in his solo album is different from the band music. ”The Rasmus songs is more lyrical, and in my album there is more electronic, techno music”.
Last time Lauri was in Lithuania last year, in Trakai and he was amazed by local people. ”People here are very similar to Finnish people. I feel like I’m in Helsinki, singing in my country”.
But before going on stage in ”Purple night” Lauri wasn’t able to hide his excitement. He come to the show right from the hospital where he had an operation of broken arm. The singer wasn’t able to make a soundcheck.
”I don’t know how the stage looks, where is my microphone. Besides, my arm really hurts. I don’t know if I will be able to hold the microphone. I hope that I won’t start to cry”, – half joking, half serious talked Lauri.
However, after the concert Lauri was smiling because everything went good and friday in the morning he was flying back home to Helsinki to cure his arm.
