Hey guys;
I just found out that we're going to be able to do an interview with Ville Valo when HIM comes to Toronto on March 31st, 2010.
Any suggestions for questions? Anything you're dying to know from Mr. Valo?
We're really excited to have this opportunity for a face to face chat with the Finnish frontman. I'm sure that we'll have time to talk about feminist icon Saint Caterina of Alexandria, an 18 year old female philosopher who went up against 50 Roman philosophers and managed to convert them to her way of thinking. The song "Catherine Wheel" on Ville's new album "Screamworks: Love in Theory and Practice" alludes to her story, as Caterina was martyred on a Catherine Wheel.
Ville Valo always manages to educate and inform with his interviews. It's one of the things that his fans love him for!

Wow, that's really exciting. If there were one thing I could ask the band, it would be about the sexuality in their music videos. I've noticed that it's conventional for music videos to sexually objectify women in a violent way, but that in HIM's music videos it is the band members, particularly Ville, who are sexualized. So I would like to know if they've ever been pressured to create music videos that are degrading to women.
