Herätys oli jo puoli kahdeksan aamulla. No ehdin nukkumaan varmaan about 3 tuntia. Ja ei kun lentokentälle. Luvassa oli kaksi eri lentoa. Lentoasemalla lähteissämme pari tyttöä tuli antamaan meille fanikirjeet ja halusivat ottaa meistä kuvia. Aika paljon muuten ihmiset toljottavat meitä täällä lentokentillä. Rohkeimmat kyselevät, että mikäs bändi te ootte? ”Ettehän te se Iron Maiden vaan ole”. Maiden on täällä pikkasta päälle kova sana nimittäin. Rock in Rio ja silleen...
Perillä meitä odottikin melkoinen fanilauma. Nimmareita jaettiin ja kuvia otettiin. Saatiin pikku lahjoja taas. Siitä ajettiin sitten hotellille. Päätettiin mennä syömään hotellin ravintolaan. About 15 eurolla per nuppi syötiin todella hienosti. Suomessa olis maksanut 60 euroa naama tuollaisessa paikassa aika kepeästi. Tai mistä minä tiedän, kun ei ole meikäläisellä Suomessa varaa syödä tuon tason ravinteleissa.
Käytiin moikkaan faneja hotellina pihassa ja hengailtiin vähän aikaa siinä. Päätettiin käydä Tommyn ja Tapsan kanssa katsastamassa sauna/ uima-allas osasto. Ja kyllä kannatti. Ihan kunnon sauna siellä oli ja lämpöäkin ihan melki 80. Teki niin eetwarttia että. Tuli just eikä melkein oikeaan paikkaan. (Viikon päästä onkin jo sitten lauantaisauna kotona.) Täällä reissun päällä sitä huomaa, kuinka tärkeä sauna on. Ite en voisi elää ilman saunaa. Siihen päälle pikku polskuttelut uima-altaalla. Yömyssyn jälkeen sitä oltiinkin valmiina petiin. Viiden tähden hotelli muuten...
29.2.08 Flight/ Buenos Aires, Argentina, Day Off
The wake-up call for us was already half past seven in the morning. I slept about 3 hours and we were off to the airport. There were 2 different flights ahead of us. At the airport a couple of fans were there to give us the fan letters. We took some pictures together also. People stare at us quite a lot here at the airports. Some of them are asking us what kind of band we are. “Are you Iron Maiden?” Iron Maiden is really popular here. Rock in Rio and everything...
When we got to Buenos Aires there were a bunch of fans waiting for us. We took pictures again and gave autographs. We had some gifts as well from the fans..Then we drove to the hotel. We decided to eat in the hotel´s restaurant. It was only maybe 20 bucks per head. In Finland you must pay at least 70-80 dollars for the dinner in a restaurant like this. Or how would I know. I don´t have so much money I could
eat in a restaurant like this…We went to say hello to the fans outside the hotel. Then we headed to the sauna/ pool with Tommy and Tapsa. It was worth it. It was totally decent sauna. (a week from this and I´ll be in my own saunaJ) I couldn´t live without a sauna. We also went to the pool to have a good swim. After a night cap I was totally ready for bed. It´s a five star hotel by the way…

Hey!
Elias please answer my last post please i beg you!
Camilo
Wow, fancy restaurants, ha? I like these ones, but as you have said, I don´t have the money to be a frequent costumer :P
And I have already said this, but I just love the photos you post here! I saw you going out of the stage to take a picture in Sao Paolo - Brazil, but at the time didn´t realized it was a photo! Only realized when I saw it here :D
I must say that a save almost every single one of them on my pc, and I hope it is not a problem. :)
And I hope I can get in touch with you guys someday. It´s my biggest frustration not have a photo, autograph or the fact that I couldn´t talk to you guys at any moment you had with fans :/ If I´d talk about how I got in Sao Paolo at the show´s day and came back for my state at the next morning, and how the car broke, making me unable to meet you guys at the airport... Damn, I was so mad!
So, come back soon :P
Awesome show(s) for guys guys in Argentina!
And The Best For You All.
:P g'luck in the concert tonight :)!!
Hi elias!, dudeeeee it was an excelent show, definitely one to put in my top5!!!!
I really enjoyed the concert, and sing my ass out, haaha.

Hello guys, I'm Marcos, writing after your show here in BS AS. I can't go for a drink, I'm exhausted. But I'm very happy (tought you like to hear it). I'll be a musician, (Nirvana fan, also Sonata :D) and it so hard to decide what kind of music to play, I like metal, rock, hard rock, everything, so well, thats the difficult part. Anyway, i like the Blog, and i hope that you liked Buenos Aires. We love music here. Ask Marko about a water bottle (just joking, I didn't do it)
Well, hope to see you soon, keep creating Art, the world needs it.
Adieu!! (sorry for my bad english)

For the sake of revenge!!!
Hello Eliass..
You were awesome here.... we won't forget to Jani, but you got another soul to play the songs, you took me to remind to steve vai, when you woke up the guitar with the thing(I can't remember how to say this part of guitar).
The band gave an awesome show, anybody that were there, they'll not forget it. Thanks
We will here for your back..
You and the rest of the band, has planted more than music, feeling, emotion, I'm sure that somebody has been crying while was ringing the songs...
I was to the vanishing point in the end.
I don't have more to say...
we wish you were here again soon.
Thanks
Well, I must say that was the best show I've ever seen in my life! And I can't wait to see you guys back again! Elias, you don't really have anything to envy Jani, as some assholes say... Your performance was so freakin' brilliant man!! I love how you played Wolf & Raven, your fingers are magical, hahaha!!
I hope you come back soon, we'll welcome you guys as we did last Saturday :D
Best wishes, and good luck with the remaining tour dates!!
