Where: Nintendo DS Guitar Hero

When: About a month ago

Story:
I have a Nintendo DS and I like to play the Guitar Hero game. The song "Walk Idiot Walk" is one of the songs on the game. I really really really like that song. I logged onto the computer and went to You Tube and found the video for this song. I also found other videos from The Hives and now The Hives are my favorite band of all time. Here are two photos that I wanted you to see. The first picture is of a diarama that I made of the band and the other picture is of me. I hope you like them. =Joseph= (age 7)

Where: Nosturi, Helsinki, Finland

When: 22th March 2009

Story:
In February I heard that The Hives were coming to Finland.
My first thought was that I have to get there, but then fate decided something else: showday was sunday and nobody wanted to come with me. Also, tickets were (only) 26 euros, but mum didn't want to pay it (i'm always broke). I fit my mind the fact that I wouldn't be able to see The Hives live.

Weeks rolled on - and then I found this competition "Win VIP-tickets to The Hives consert in Nosturi 22.3". I never win anything, but I still decided to try my luck - you never know.

Again weeks rolled on and monday the 16th of March I had this tiny tickling in my stomach. I opened up my computer and found out that I had won the VIP-tickets to show. I jumped trough roof and screamed my lungs out.

Then sunday came and we went to Nosturi. We got some food,drinks, The Hives stuff (=latest CD and unique t-shirt) and a chance to play guitar hero.

Warmer band, The Doits, started 2000. It was pretty weird, I'm not sure if I liked it or not.
The Hives started about 2100 and in five minutes I was sweatier than ever. Me and my friend got to this huge circlepit and it was so awesome! Everybody went just nuts, but in a good way. I also lost my both shoes during the first ten minutes, but luckily found them pretty soon.

I loved the freezing thing where whole band stood still for few minutes. It was crazy!
At some point I was in front row, but this girl next to me got upset and pushed me away. Right after that Pelle came to see crowd in that place. So my luck.
We also took some pictures - I L O V E the one where Pelle stares right to camera.
During the last song, Dr. Matt Destruction gave me his plectrum, awwww. It's now in my closet door.

Set was just perfect and you guys made me a great impress - I gotta see you again.

After the gig we left home. Five hours driving and then three hours sleeping and to school - what a great formula.

Awesome day entirely, but I wanted so bad to meet the band, and I didn't get a chance. It made me feel sad, because I know you guys are glorious.

- THANK YOU - so much for saving my March and spring. And for the best show ever( though it was the first time I saw The Hives).

Looking forward for the next time to see The Hives, maybe after the new record has been released? ;)

And -I almost forgetted- I wanna so bad to know what songs you played that night, but I can't find setlist anywhere. Any tips?

Where: Osaka, Japan

When: 1/4 2009

Story:
I was about to die from boredom in the cold northern city of Sapporo (they have clubs here too! haha), but then, out of nowhere, my dad buys tickets to see The Hives! I went absolutely mad!
So my dad and brother came along with me to Osaka, and there we were in the 3rd row. My dad stayed in the back because he's old, but when the lights went out and that familiar sign lit up (or cloth banner... it doesn't matter it still said Hives!), I was screaming so loud that everyone looked at me weird. i guess the polite look is in right now...
Well that creepy european music started to play, and i got this feeling that i had the first time i saw you i Denver; my heart pounded so fast, and my head got hot and electric. I knew that this show would be as unforgettable as the first.
Hey Little World was first, then Main Offender, and so on. Each song just as good or better than the last, and i was jumping and screaming and going nuts for like, and hour and a half!!
I drew a giant heart with HIVES inside of it before the concert to show how much you guys mean to me, but now that i think about it I say a heart on EACH hand would've been appropriate, if not my forehead too =)))))))) <3
please come back to Japan you keep me alive in this country!!!

love and support Then, Now, and Forever!!!!
