There are many things that I already knew, but some things that I didn't know, so here you have
About school:
"I hated school. And school hated me. Even though I quite liked some opposition. I was interested in history and maths. Art and music were also okay. At the age of 9 they forced us to learn Swedish, which I absolutely didn't feel like. To this day I still don't know a single word of it. English was much easier, because I already knew that from television. They don't synchronise films in Finland, you know, they only subtitle everything. The teachers couldn't stand me, cos I was wild and violent. I constantly had rows with anyone. I still don't move out of the way for a good fight."
About his parents:
"I have no idea whether I rebelled against my parents or not. What's 'rebellion' anyway? Anyway, they were relatively fine, only forbid me the necessary things, like all parents do: drinking, taking drugs. With going out I never had any problems. If I would go away for one summer long, spraying graffiti and decorating all of Helsinki with weird tags, the police would just pick me up and take me home again. Then I would have some trouble at home. I don't think they were ever particularly happy with me and my little brother, for he is exactly as much of a good-for-nothing as I am. What he's doing wight now? Erm, nothing.
About girls, when he was in highschool:
"I can't remember anything about my first girlfriend. It's also difficult to say who exactly was your first girlfriend. The one you first held, the one you first kissed? Or the one you first slept with? I was always in the company of girls anyway. The are more easy-going to hang around with. What I looked like, I dread to think. Probably like shit. But the girls liked me anyway."
About music:
"I have always been interested in music. I also never considered another profession but rock musician. At the age of 7 I got my first bass guitar. Later I also learned a bit of guitar, keyboards and drums. My favourite bands at the time were mostly American alternative bands like Black Flag or the Lemonheads. My room was full of posters of '80s rockbands, Alice Cooper for example, or Kiss."
Hobby:
"I've never been interested in anything else but music. Sports I found terrible, doing it myself at least. But I also can't understand how people can like watching it on television. My most valuable possession? Probably some old vinyl record of mine.I collected everything I could possibly lay my hands on: records, jewelry, antiques, Katholic art - Through the years that only became more difficult instead of easier!"
About his mother:
Like all members of Ville´s family, she is not mentioned in the public. There are only a few informations about her. She has Hungarian roots, lives together with Ville´s father and brother in Helsinki and seems to have a very close relation to Ville. When Ville quit the school, she let him do and tried to support him. (Ville: "She was just disappointed that I couldn´t go to the army.") Now she´s proud of him and his success. (Ville: "My mother and my father are happy. They often ask me for free-CDs. But actually it´s nothing deosebit for them to see me on stage. They have seen me preparing myself for this moment and rehearsing for fifteen years. Now they are happy that I finally can do what I´ve wanted to do for a long time, and that I can pay my rents and cigarettes.") She is the woman on the cover of the EP "666 ways to love", there are no other official pics of her.[color=red][/color] _________________ [URL=http://imageshack.us] [/URL] |
