so 2 threads from Norway as a small starter, now I head over to one of our neighbour countries, the land of the thousand lakes.... Finland. A lot of good shit has come from the country through the years and there is noone better to start with than legendary glamrockers HANOI ROCKS! I was so lucky to see them live back in '83

It's not my type of music granted, but its interesting to hear music from not only another country, but stuff other people enjoy. So what's the Finish/Norweigan equivilant to say Pink, who I am heavily into at the moment?
