Eleanoora Rosenholm - Noora Tommila

The Lexington, London, May 26th 2011

The Lexington continues its story-haul! My 300th gig (according to Songkick anyhow), and the 1st London gig for the Finnish band Eleanoora Rosenholm. Noora is a cool looking pixie-esque character, and looked at me in a confused 'are you sure?' type manner after I asked for a story (more people should do this!), and then asked if it should be in English, but I said she could write it in Finnish if she preferred. She then gave me one funny final perculiar look before writing the story, and voila!

Fact fans: Only the second story to be written on two different pieces of card (instead of the reverse side of the same card). Fascinating... In other fascinating news, I'm quite happily looking forward to seeing them live again the next time they come back!

Managed to ask Raphaelle for a story after their gig finished, and so she sat down on the stage and wrote away! She seemed very lovely in person and in voice!
