It took me years to learn about Richard Pinhas. The way I did is I heard about a Merzbow/Pinhas gig and told a friend "wow, you're playing with Merzbow!" and he answered "no, it's my dad who's playing"

Hello Destroit!

Don in Tampere:

Thanks for the wishes. I think the riskiest part of the trip is the train from Tampere to Helsinki, since almost no one wears masks here. Germany has a nominally higher infection rate but I think that's because they test more, plus they are still requiring FFP2 masks on public transit and at the trade fair. As for the other danger on everyone's mind, I don't think anything is likely to happen along the flight path. What would happen in Finland joins NATO is another question, but If Russia can't manage to progress in Ukraine, I think dealing with a 1300 km border would be tough. Support for NATO is over 60% here, but I fear it could be a devil's bargain, especially since the Orange Turd could end up being President again.

@Don, almost no one had a mask on during my train ride to the station. People are getting too lax. And NATO... depends on US stability.

@Paulo: That should be epic! On a related note a friend of mine is about to release a record with his brother, and they picked old family pictures of them for the cover. Some people are going to get the record for the pics alone, even if they don't care about the music, brilliant marketing move!
