This should be interesting. Maybe some special songs, as there aren't ziltoid songs, deep peace or kingdom in the set. (Bastard, anyone? :twisted:). Maybe I'll bring my Ziltoid-hat with me again. Would be a dream come true if Devin could sign it ;).

Add half a dozen more amazing live shows from other amazing bands and you can imagine how amazing it was. Amazing! :D

When watching Gaia I was like 'Oh, he's being sun-smart.' cuz he was wearin' his hat.

AND THEN HE THREW IT OUT INTO THE MASSES.

Don't get burned, Dev! I imagine a peeling scalp is most unpleasant. :/

When I first shaved my head about a million years ago, I didn't play it smart and got a really bad burn. I didn't mind the pain so much, but when it started peeling, the itching drove me insane! I got fed up one day, so in the shower I took a wash cloth and scrubbed all the dead skin off of my scalp. I scrubbed so hard, I started to bleed. I must have scrubbed off part of the newish skin under the burnt/peeling skin. That hurt like a motherfucker.

I literally looked like I had been scalped. It looked as if someone had taken a scalpel to my head, and cut the cap right off.

Kinda looked like a dog dick taking a little peek out of the foreskin.

Sorry, just had to share.

absolutely an amazing show! setlist was spectacular and well couldn't really hope for more.
Seeing Dev enjoying playing and goofing around in the stage was definitely refreshing compared to other bands which were a bit more serious about the gig :mrgreen:
Enjoyed a ton! Hopefully we'll see the next ziltoid musical in tuska, in a couple of years or so I reckon

Maybe it was just a terrible hangover, but it was the first time ever when I was that close to cry in the middle of the set :lol: ... I blame Devin.

Please come back some day!

This gig was THE best gig I have ever been to, and I have been on quite a number of them. SO I thank you Devin for coming to Finland, as there can't be anyone better to see live than you and your band!

It's also quite a shame that no matter which band I see live, this gig will always be the best!

I hope next time you come to Finland you will be headlining your own gig and play a special 3-hour gig so that you could play something from everything you have done :D That would truly be a dream come true.

Devin you are the best! Stay true to yourself and make music the way you best see fit! It is truly the best way! THANK YOU
