Zax: A marching band major mixed with black metal and marches with a guitar who also leads black metal themed marching bands of Finnish furries who also wear black metal uniforms with guitars?! Now that's some hardcore crazy stuff right there! Not even Rockin' Roarer could do that!

Juno: Krieglandonian with some black metal. Unusual but cool!

Mikko: Finland is the black metal capital of Earth and this is considered the norm. Even though we don't mind traditional style marching band uniforms, we tend to associate them with church and national holidays. So Black Metal Major decided to appeal to our people outside those days more by throwing some black metal into the mix and yes black metal is a part of our national culture. Even Leku can confirm this.

Jack: Now I like to see Black Metal Major lead a Finnish black metal parade in Wildcat City! That's going to be interesting if this is called another day in Finland.

Leku: Yes; that's correct.

Rockin' Roarer: I never thought I'd see the two blend together like this; this is awesome!

David Satterfield: Sometimes WU's marching band would have electric guitars as part of the pit section, but never on the field. Way to combine the two!

Mikko: That's how we do it!

Chuong: Finland, a strange yet awesome country in frozen cold northern Europe. And of course, saunas!

Finisher: Yes, we got plenty of saunas. There is literally not one town or city in Finland that doesn't have those. Even our parks have a lot of those so you'd be hard-pressed to find a park without saunas. And of course, nothing brings us more joy than watching black metal marching bands parade through our cities and towns. A lot of us Finns, even the humans, participate in such parades. But Black Metal Major usually leads his band of Finnish furries doing that too.

Dark Wolf: Glad to hear that. I, too, love a parade.

Yay! Another Finn character! As we Finns would say in a situation like this: Torilla tavataan!

What does that mean?

Well, I think the origin of that saying is somewhere in the mid 90's, when Finland won the World Championship in ice hockey 1995 and people gathered in marketplaces to celebrate our victory. Ever since then, if Finland has success in sports -and especially in ice hockey - we go to the marketplaces to celebrate this success: we dance, sing (ice hockey songs) - and some people even take clothes off ! Last time this happened last week, when our national junior team brought the gold home and in Helsinki couple guys even dove into the dock for a couple minutes ! That's Finland for you!

I've never been to Finland so I'll take your word for it. But I send my congratulations to your national junior for winning gold.
