Om Metal Mystics Take Me!
A four year journey into the heart of Metal Music
What are the chances!
An unexpected musical encounter with the Melodic Music Band Wintersun played on a friends car cd both inspired and fuelled a special adventure that took me to a metal music festival in Germany where I shed old prejudices, discovered the magic of crowdsurfing and met music heroes Jari Mäenpää, Teemu Mäntysaari, Jukka Koskinen and Kai Hahtu.
Then on to Helsinki in Finland where I...
Experienced a powerful and unexpected form of Nature
Exchanged my comfort zone for faith and trust
Saw the Northern Lights by a Sacred Lake in Inari,
Found my inner artist and poet
Met Indigenous Sami folk
Listened to story telling stones
Found my inner story teller
Saw other worldly visions
Met one of my metal music Heroes, Teemu Mäntysaari, on the Helsinki Metro and had a great unforgettable guitar lesson with him
Got into Tuska Music Festival with just my bus pass
Experianced traditional perfect smoked saunas
Enjoyed some wild swimming
Drank clear sweet water in Finland
Visited the Hans Anderson museum in Denmark
Visited Santa Clause at the Arctic Circle
Experienced amazing metal music
And recalibrated my spiritual compass
...And then I wrote this journal.
