The concert will take place in Helsinki, Finland, at Finlandia Hall on May 4. The Finish fans will declare May 4 a National Day. I'm happy for them! There was another concert back in...1992 if I remember well (do correct me if I'm wrong). And they (and everyone else willing to travel to Helsinki) can already buy tickets on: *Menolippu.fi (very nice of them to add Facebook and Twitter buttons to the event so don't hesitate to spread the news! And they also incorporated the official Facebook fan page for people to proceed accordingly) *Finish Ticketmaster
