It is humppa time again

Pekka Jokinen — Mon, 10 May 2010 20:56:27 +0000

Would you like to have some humppa?

After 2 weeks of rest and recovery it is time to scream some humppa again. The first few drinks we take in Finland (Helsinki & Kerava) and on friday its time to hit Germany again for some special gigs. Video shows some nice action from Munich.

The Karlsruhe gig was set up already one year ago and it will be our 10th gig in Karlsruhe, 9th gig at Substage and also the farewell for the old Substage venue. We are proud to be one of the last bands playing there. Because of the special event there will be nice 9 € and 10 € special offers at our humppa shop there.

Wiesbaden cocert will be carefully photographed. There will be 4 students making a photo project of concert photography and as far as we know a few of our trusted photographers doing stage photos during the show. So please keep smiling over there!

In Hamburg we play the new show because the 16.4. gig was cancelled. Almost 700 tickets are sold already. Thank you for waiting us:) Show time at Markthalle is 20.00.

HELP! Transportation help needed. If someone is driving from gig to gig in Germany we need some help with our gear and merchandise. We have small car and the stuff might not fit in. Free tickets and stuff for the helpers. Please contact Pekka at the venue or before by e-mail indiefilms (at) indiefilms.fi

Pekka Jokinen — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 12:13:29 +0000

We will have a new gig next week (30.1.) at the Finnish Eurovision Song Contest finals. Short show with only one song: Hulluna humpasta.

See our semifinal performance from last friday 22.1.2010 at YouTube. A lot of humppa fans were attending the event and the feeling was great.

Do not forget to enjoy the official sing along and karaoke videos.

Get more fun from the karaoke version by Polish Humppa Team. Its not a surprise that these guys made it first. We are waiting for YOUR version!
