Milou

What a day!

We had a huge outdoor concert today in Tampere - first by Lucretia and the Dumb Stuff band, playing groove, funk and soul, an hour gig in Sorsapuisto -park.  Then the main artist Tampere Phiharmonia playing conducted by Santtu-Matias Rouvali, a clever, artistic young guy. An hour and half concert with tenor Tero Harjuniemi.

Magnificient!

Milou -looking dog was there with his human friends. Listening. http://youtu.be/9FFNQ-A3vK0

"Santtu-Matias Rouvali is Chief Conductor of the Tampere Philharmonic Orchestra. He also is Principal Guest Conductor of the Copenhagen Phil. This season he debuts with the Wiener Symphoniker and returns to the Philharmonia Orchestra for his London concert debut etc"...

... extraordinary clever and artistic young barefoot Tampere-man. And sounds a little funny ans smiley like Mickey Mouse as he speaks. Wonderful person ;)

Huge amount of people in the Sorsapuisto -park, I never ever in my life have seen so many in Tampere in one open air happening! The open air free concert was first until 17 years. So this really was something! Additional shot n:o 1 & 2, please.

Visited also dad in the afternoon wi my daughter. He was depressed as he had nothing to do in the geriatric ward. Like a tiger in a cage. I wonder if he ever will be satisfied of happy again. But he was happy to see me. Chatted for a while with him. Fortunately he could escape form there in the evening. We got the information about that after the concert. Apparently he had a nice fresh air as he had an hour runaway walk before the police found him...

This can not continue! On monday his wife and I will have a discussion with his dementia home and social welfare department... We already have a plan. I sure hope they also do. Abything is better than this.

Late in the evening I went photographing to a tecknoparty, in additional shot n:o 3 & 4. More about that particular place tomorrow, I will promise.

What a day!
