eV's Underground
Tuesday May 7th, 2013 with e.V. Queen of Doom
The 'Get Well Ville!' tribute show: Music by HIM and for HIM :)
HIM's singer Ville Valo is sick with pneumonia and severe asthma and they had to cancel their North American "Tears On Tour". This is a show for Ville featuring music by HIM, as well as by other bands Ville has provided vocals for, and by bands that HIM likes (e.g. Cathedral, Iggy Pop) - there will also be some music by Daniel Lioneye, HIM's guitarist Linde's band which Ville played drums on (at least on the first album) and also music by a few bands inspired by HIM and Ville.
LIGHT HIM A CANDLE TO GET BETTER! http://www.gratefulness.org/candles/candles.cfm?l=eng&gi=VALO
