Hi there, thank you for resending your email because I didn't get it yesterday. I'll reply soon. I was reading the "covers competion" forum and listening to some of the tracks there. Really nice! This is what makes me happy here, I believe. It's the fact that the members/fans participate sharing their music and art; not like it happens in some message boards I know of, where people absolutely do nothing creative and say a lot of rubbish. I hardly know anyone here but it's a fantastic board. I saw some of your photos in other topics and they were very nice

Hello! I´m a new member in forum. Joined two days ago, after telling you the tragic news about Ari. Little info of me: I´m 36 (male) and live 30km from Helsinki, in a little town called Kerava. I´ve been a keen fan of Ultravox since the early ´80´s and my heart still booms for the band. Don´t own too many rarities or have a large collection since we had this deal with Ari: if I get new Ultravox, I´ll give it to him and if he gets new U2, he returns the compliment. Our deal was perfect, almost 350 items swapped since 1983! Something about Ari before I end this message: we went to the same school back in 1982. He was born in 1967 and I one year later. Music was our big inspirator and we spent hours after hours playing the latest albums from Ultravox, OMD, Landscape etc. We kept friends ´till the day Ari lost the control of his new (& too powerful) motorcycle in Leppävaara, Espoo. I joined this forum to keep up the memory of Ari and perhaps meet new and wonderful people through this. Ari loved you all and he had a good sense of character. Back soon, Esa

Hi Esa! I am so glad you are on here. Ari really isn't "gone" completely. If you miss him like I do already, you can look up some past posts, and I am sure you will run into his name with Icon, and you can read what he wrote, or...even see a photo! Most people don't see a Forum as anything more than a like-dislike session of stuff. What happens is, especially on here, you get to know the people more, and it begins unlike most Forums to become more than what it was intended to be. In this case, this Forum is a Memorial to remember Ari by. No one thinks a Forum can do that, because really, do we expect anything tragic to happen? You see posts, the names, the icons, photos, etc. but you don't think anything beyond that. In this case, it became more. It now is a place to visit Ari whenever we want. We know he is gone from this world, but not here. He will always be here, which is really fantastic. Newspapers get thrown away, and people usually who die, their belongings go this way and that, but Ari will always be on here. His words and photos, can always be seen and shared by family and friends. I will pray for your family, and if you need anything, you know the Forum will be here to help. - Kathleen
