been too long

2008-12-12T18:57:20Z

Sorry all for the delay, have been supe5r stressed and busy with everything so I have had to neglect some of my internet duties :) been doing alot of gigs with Jussi under the name The Saviours and now we are planning a new show with me, ussi and Wisa and maybe some additional people... it will be gogeous if it goes like we planned... The US trip is coming together all the time, the only really fixed date is the APP in Vegas and we will be in following places: Portland (me alone for some slicey action...), Albuquerque, Texas (Dallas, Houston and so on) and Mexico! I really really look forward to that Mexico bit since i have not been there before. Beginning of next year we will probably be going over to Rome and Palermo and also Estonia/Tallinn which will be another first one for me, looking forward to that also. I will try to post here more often but I am afraid that Christmas will be a bit hectic time for me...

This is very admiring.

From russia.

Industrial structures fascinate me.

2008-10-25T13:23:51Z

This place used to be a mineral refinery and now it is full of small businesses. I have inquired with their care taker and there are several large spaces that can be used there and also it is possible to take photos and video in the structure. Love it...

Confusion is relative peace.

I hate it when people take your ideas and make them theirs. Especially when friends do that. For all friends like that, watch me I will take what is mine.

Skype and livefeed

2008-10-10T18:37:48Z

Got myself a Skype profile, LassiCMA if you know you need to be in contact with me then ad me. Friends are highly appreciated... Tomorrow I will be hosting Diesel XXX party in Helsinki it will be streamed to internet at www.diesel.com/xxx/ check it out, should be worth the while.

Stuff and nerve pain.

2008-10-09T20:28:01Z

got me new computer since my old one kind of blew up on me :D The power suply in my notebook burned the whole circuitry in the part where it sticks in to the computeer so that was kind of annoying and it forced me to be offline for while. I went and bought me the new Asus EEE 901 this morning and I am already loving this thing, have to start modifying it straight away though, maybe a touch screen and a better/bigger ssd. I will be hosting the Helsinki party for the clothing label Diesel next saturday, the party is going on in 17 cities at the same time and the theme is XXX since it is their 30th year. Looking forward to that alot! It will be streamed on the Diesel web site also.... I somehow got my facial nerve infected or something, no one really knows what happened... The pain was quite unbelievable. Now it's day two and I feel better but it did give me quite a scare. gladly they gave me some rather damn strong central nervous system affecting pain killers, so I might be a little lightheaded in my writing. Jumping from subject to other: Oslo Sideshow night was just kick ass! All the performers were over the top and athmosphere was awesome! I am looking forward to posting photos as soon as I get some. Other than that, I will rest today and tomorrow and catcvh up with my internet stuff.

we had a nice gig with the Turmion Kätilöt. A finnish Industrial band and I even got to sing!!!! Now heading for the Sideshow Night next weekend, gonna be awesome to see all the friends and get to be on stage with the fabulous performers once again. In other news, I am still in process of putting up the new shop which will be in Vallila/Helsinki the name is set to be SuperFun! Which is kind of a parodical take on the normal studio identity, you figure it out.... Next year is going to be VERY interesting with a HUGE thing planned for U.S. We will be in APP convention hentravelling around, I will personally try to fit Portland in the schedule to meet all the good people and hopefully to get some interesting projects done that have been hanging since my last visit!!!

Here is few pics from Turku show at Individual Ink tattoo studios birthday/halloween party. I have been working far to much and being too depressed to communicate with anyone. I´m sorry for that, will try harder.

Videos from Moscow show!

Back from Russia!

2007-10-13T13:09:58Z

Hello to all, I am very sorry for having neglected LiveJournal so much but I have had this kind of an internet tiredness and I have not been contacting people enough through my several pages. I just came back from doing my solo shows in St. Petersburg and Moscow last weekend and I have to say it was time VERY well spent. Big thank you for Frio and Sacha who gave me shelter and very good company when in Russia also to our little FilthMouth :D who kept the athmosphere up! I have to say that Russia is very interesting place for there is such a big demand for this kind of shows, I will do everything I can to be travelling back there again.

In other things, I have to start to replan my trip to US. Probably I will be travelling next spring. I was thinking of booking the tickets now for then I couldn´t blame any work hurries etc. for not being able to go since I couldnt take any work to that time... I miss all of the PDX family so very greatly... I will try to be more effective in this community from now on. Next I shall go and check out the MySpace mess, I have SOOOOOOOO many messages there waiting that I will not be able to survive it.

St. Petersburg

2007-06-13T08:26:14Z

Back from Russia and the St. Petersburg V Tattoo Festival. Was just crazy and FUN! I cant wait to visit again. I have to say that once again I fell in love with the city. The convention was very high quality and the people were just awesome, thank you for all of you.

Next I have to start to book my flights to US, funny how my three favourite cities in the world are in such different places, Tokyo, St. Petersburg and Portland...

Mikele from Ring-KG / Tokyo is checking out the possibilities to work there and do few solo shows, would be very nice. It has been far too long time since my last visit to Japan.

Other than that, I am planning on travelling to Moscow convention and maybe also to Ukraine (not sure). Have been very busy booking performers and trying to get work done, working Lassi is a happy Lassi....

Show news

2007-06-04T09:10:13Z

I have decided to start to book a solo show again. It has been sometime since I have been doing solo stuff but since the Circus is on a vacation and I am always willing to be on stage I decided I will do some of my own projects. I have been building up the solo project for some time and now I have it build to something I can offer for organisers and venues. The show is 35-40 minutes and it is a mix freakshow stunts and visual drama. I do all my repertoir in the show and also I have added a bit more hardcore and suspension elements than what has been seen in the CMA shows. The show is not connected to the circus in any way and I do it under my own name so to avoid any confusion. Since I will be performing and travelling solo the pricing and expenses will be relatively cheap (not that cheap thoug....) :D For anyone interested in booking the show I have extensive promotional material, synopsis of the show as well as several alternative possibilities for the show, all the material and technical data for venues and also my bio and credentials for promotional use. All the booking inquiries can be send to me through MySpace or by emqail: lassi@mundusabsurdus.com When travelling I can be also engaged in bodymodification work of several sorts. For further preferences please feel free to contact me.
Have an excellent summer all of you!

Few videos and busy as hell.

2007-05-16T19:24:12Z

Been busy as a mf lately. So many nice new things happening. Landed me some work booking performers for a huge erotic convention and also I have to cast for a music video. Summer is going to be hectic, sold a bunch of solo gigs and also I am confirming the trip to US. Going to be over there in July and staying atleast a month. Also will be going to Albuquerque for q little stop to possibly work and see friends. Going to be sweet! cant wait to see the PDX family again, miss all of you! Here is few videos from the Albuquerque show. Eventhough the police decided to site the organisers for "indecent dancing" I think that sense will win since all the people who got their material confiscated are now suing the police. Excellent!

Booking in a rush...

2007-05-15T19:22:03Z

Yay for all the friends and the internet for the possibility to be in contact with all of you!

I am booking performers for the Turku erotic convention, really huge convention and then they give me a week to do the whole thing, damned. Trying to land few good and big ones from states hope it goes through with this short time. Gladly I am booking my flights for PDX soon and this will give me the possibility to go down and do the contracts directly with the people, also that means that the convention will be helping me with the expenses! Yay for everything!

Back home

2007-05-15T07:32:19Z

So I have returned home from states.

Was an awesome trip. So much stuff happened that it´s almost inpossible to sum it all here. Portland and the Portland family was something so awesome that I am still enchanted with the whole place. I have been working out possibilities for financing so I will be able to come back to Portland in July and do more work etc. Also I will be trying to book solo shows while there since I have my new solo routine all worked out, will be a version of sideshow antiques combined with early 19th hundred magician/illusion show stuff, it will be fucking cool :D Thank you once more to Roger www.circle23.com for all his help when in Portland and I am looking forward to seeing you soon again. Also thank you for everyone who came to get work done, hope all your scars turn out excellent and I am looking forward to getting healed pics from you guys. Also a HUGE thanks to Jon from Robot piercing and Kellan from Paramount piercing, hope to see you guys soon again. Now I am trying to focus on the upcoming shows but my mind is still with you guys in states. I will be posting pics and new journals when I have time to get to know this system and site better, until that, big greets to everyone I met on our travel, hope to see you all soon again!
