Part one - Waiting for 3 years

Hi, I'm here to tell you the story of a German Iron Sky fanboy at the Iron Sky red carpet premiere in Tampere on 26.03.2012. Shortly about this fanboy we are speaking about. He waited for this movie for 3 years when he saw the first trailer of it. In October 2010 he went to Tampere, Finland for a 6 month long internship without even knowing that the idea, the CGI and so much more of Iron Sky originated from there. When he realized it, he was already in love with Tampere, public sauna at Kauppi and his awesome working place at Demola - New Factory. He started dreaming about seeing movie in the city it came from. But he never even in his wildest dreams thought about being there at the premiere, the gala and even the party after the show. That's when his Finnish friend Matti told him about the ticket sale to the premier on the 26th. ( Video inviting to the premier) He was first a bit skeptic about the 50€, which was a lot of money for a guy who was just running really l

Part two - The show goes on :-D

So the movie was over but not the show, not at all. He was thinking so much about those cool scenes and references the movie had. He also felt quite hungry and thirsty. Luckily there was a great buffet waiting and free drinks for him at the Gala event at Pakkahuone, just a short walk away from the cinema. While enjoying the food, he had a great view on to the stage where Laibachs gig would be later on. He also had another short chat with a guy who loved all these cool little Internet culture references in Iron Sky. After finishing his food and starting his second beer :-), the hosts of the evening (sorry can't find the names) started the program.   You can find all recordings of the stage here . After the hosts and other people left the stage, there were some interviews for the people watching online. You can see them at the official Iron Sky YouTube channel .

Part Three - Last thoughts

You probably already figured out that the fanboy was me. x-D I wrote this story from 3rd perspective because I know there are many like me who just not had this awesome opportunity. Like my friend Matti, who unfortunately bought a ticket for the 27.03 before he knew about the 26.03 :-P. He did enjoy the 27th anyway.  I also have to thank him for coediting this posts and removing all the ugly grammar and wrong spellings! As last words I would like to say: I learned at this evening again that we are all just people. Why would I otherwise be able to Dance at the same stage as the President of the United States.   You should laugh at this point. Please smile at least :-P The only differences between you me and everybody else are the opportunities we get and are willing to take, as well as the goals and dreams we are setting our self and are eager to pursuit. One of the best opportunities I took in my life jet was to go for a half year to Tampere and Finland.  It was a great time!
