¤ As usual, Heartagram has delivered another strange Christmas card to you and yours. Words can't describe it.

From all of us (ha!) here at The Sac...Happy Kwanza to all of you.

¤ A month later I decide to stop being lazy and post up some reviews of the Tempe, Arizona show back in November. My apologies. One reviewer also included pictures from the show for all of you to see. Thanks to both reviewers for their submissions.

¤ HIM has been confirmed to play the 2005 Rock am Ring and Rock im Park shows. The festival runs from June 3-5...just in time for the new album.

¤ The Finnish channel TV 2 will be airing a new HIM documentary in February. The documentary was shot by Ville's girlfriend Jonna Nygren and follows the band during their US tour (possibly more so the Wiltern and Tempe shows). No exact date has been set, but we'll keep you posted. (Credit: HIMforFans.de)

¤ For those waiting on bootlegs from me, be patient. I haven't forgotten about you. I've just been really busy with other priorities that aren't connected to an ethernet cable. Thank you for being patient, I'll have those out ASAP after Christmas.

¤ So like, today was The Sac's birthday and we totally didn't do anything special. Ah well, next time. It's been a great year so far, thank you to everyone who wished us well in the first year. Your support is appreciated.

Please stick around for another, we may suck, but we rock at it.

¤ Against doctor's orders Ville took the stage Saturday night at the Wiltern in LA. What a rockstar. Anyway, thanks to my friend (and soon to be yours too) Pure F-ing Sweetness, we have some video and pictures from the Wiltern show. Enjoy! (Credit/© Pure F-ing Sweetness)

¤ In a cross-promotion between HIMUS, FuneralofHearts, DarkSecretClub and ourselves, we've set up a birthday card for Mige. I was stupid and forgot to tell you about the one we did for Ville (that's linked for reference, don't be a dick and sign it now), but do me a favor and show Mige that all of us here at The Sac have love for him. Sign the card here, jerks!

¤ And of course, I have some more bootlegs for that ass. That doesn't make any damn sense, but what around here does? Check out the full catalogue here. Big hugs go out to Synnin Viemaa 66 for hooking me up with the TLA DVD. He begged for credit!

Rockwave Festival CD (6.22.04)

Theatre of Living Arts (Philly) DVD (4.16.04)

And just because I'm a nice person, here's a clip from the TLA DVD (this is reduced quality, the DVD is better!)
