On new year's eve Insight had a gig with Mesmer at Neliapila in Mäntsälä. Mesmer played their set and Insight was ready to rumble. But then around 01:30 the police came by for a visit. There were some fights and the police had to close Neliapila down.
But all is not lost: We decided to move the gear to our nearby rehearsal cave and invited all the nice folks there. And that was where the party started! We ended up playing our show in a very familiar environment... There was free beer, beautiful girls and live music! What more can we ask for?!?!?!
Insight would like to thank every one who came there. It was a succesfull night after all.

9.4.2004
Kävimme perjantaina 19.3. soittamassa pari biisiä Ääni & Vimma -karsinnoissa Ruoholahdessa. Basson varteen saimme houkuteltua Miki Brunoun, joka on kaikille tuttu Mesmeristä. Seuraavan kerran asian tiimoilta soitamme Gloriassa perjantaina 23.4. ja tarkka kellonaika on 19.20-19.35.
Käymme kuitenkin pikavisiitillä Gloriassa jo tiistaina 13.4. Homman nimi on Akustinen baari ja siellä on esiintymässä Kari Peitsamo, Kati Pellinen sekä läjä tuntemattomampia suuruuksia.
Seuraava keikka onkin sitten lauantaina 22.5. Turkoosissa Helsingissä. Insight, Terijoki Syndrome ja Mesmer. Liput maksavat noin 3 euroa. Tervetuloa!

Vuoden 2004 ensimmäinen keikka on ystävänpäivänä 14. helmikuuta Mäntsälän Monitoimitalolla Jimi Pääkallon luotsaaman Technicolourin lämppärinä. Odotettavissa on täsmähittejä aina Firefliesista Restrained Rageen :-)

Stella Star Clubin sivuilla voit äänestää viime vuoden parasta bändiä, joka esiintyi siellä. Pienenä vinkkinä annettakoon, että Insight kävi keikalla kyseisessä juottolassa jopa kahdesti...

18.11.2003
Parisuhderock tuplatreffit Factoryssä. Keskelle viikkoa ajoittuva mini-festari vietetään Helsingin Hakaniemen Factoryssä, kun uutta EP:tään viimeistelevä Insight heittää keikat sekä keskiviikkona että torstaina Pitkän sillan kupeessa.
Paikalle kannattaa tulla molempina päivinä, sillä soittamassa on myös muita bändejä ja jotain insight-spesiaalia on luvassa kummallekin keikalle... Keskiviikkona tukenamme on mainio poppaava Soft Body Vinyl Head ja torstaina hypnoottisen goottipopin nouseva voima Mesmer (entinen Thee Fleshless).

Muutamat fotot ovat nyt esillä Livestockin sivuilla, että sinne vain katselemaan! Iso kiitos kuvista Mikkolle ja Mikalle!

Kiitos myös kaikille Stellaan 15.8. vaivautuneille. Keikka tuli aivan yllätyksenä samana päivänä ja oli hauska nähdä niin monien ihmisten vaivautuneen paikalle lyhyellä varoitusajalla. Ainakin soittajilla riitti riemua kahden bändin ja yhden performanssi-pläjäyksen verran, kiitos Teille!
-


21.7.2003
Kiitos kaikille Livestockista, kesän ja koko vuoden kohokohdasta!!! Tämän vuoden festari löi laudalta edelliset Livestock-tapahtumat niin bändien laadussa kuin kävijöiden ja tyhjien pullojenkin määrässä. Insight soitti festivaalin "pääesiintyjänä" vähän puolenyön jälkeen ja meininki oli kirjaimellisesti navetan katossa! KIITTI JENGI!!!
P.S. Valokuvia Livestockista on tulossa lähiaikoina.

The best band won but The Upteekkarit had something nice to say about Insight: "Särmikästä kitarapoppia tyylikkäin maustein. Rehellisen kuuloista tulkintaa ja kiitettävästi koukkuja."

Here is the menu: "Restrained Rage", "Until", "15 Minutes of Love", "Elsewhere" and "Glamorama".

4.3.2002
The release of the forthcoming insight EP has delayed again. But it's really close right now, because only final mastering and some layout needs to be done. Major problems have occured when the band has tried to make contact with the militant-artist sailor-boy A. Laakso, because no phone lines or mobile networks are working on Antti's small secret island. Insight hopes that they will hear something of the lovable fisherman-communist soon, or no artwork will be seen for ages...

11.02.2002
The artwork for the forthcoming EP is going to be done by the infamous artist Antti Laakso. He is now spending he's days on a small island in Eastern-Finland, observing the sea and getting inspiration from simple fisherman's life. Only a few people live on that small island and it is a marvellous place for Antti to gather strenght for he's future projects, including the artwork of the new Insight EP!

17.1.2002
Insight will perform a very special gig on tuesday 29.01.2002 at the legendary Hotelli Hanhi in Lapinjärvi. The two Simos (Janne & Jani) will return to Lappträsk after they had both spent a month there in autumn 2001. The two other Insight dudes are not coming along this time, only the sounds of Janne's campfire guitar and Jani's sore throat will be heard this time. A merry night is guaranteed with some more Simo bands and lots of drunken Simos!

14.1.2002
The confirmed tracks on the forthcoming release are: 15 Minutes of Love, Restrained Rage and Elsewhere and one yet untitled song. The InsightBoyz are satisfied with the recordings so far: "Everything is going to be much better on this one. The sound, the songs, the production, the whole package!" Although one thing remains the same: "We can't seem to get rid of crap-lyrics..." But fans don't agree with that comment. Get the new CD soon, when it hits the streets, and decide yourself!!!

9.1.2002
The boys of Insight are working hard nowdays in the studio, trying to get their hit potential heart-rock tracks recorded. Crazy days and endless nights are spent in a tiny studio (built in an old water closet) where blood, sweat and tears flow 24 hours in a day. As a result, a stunning four-track EP is to be released in the near future. And You will be the first one to know!

7.1.2002
After Insight's massive show at the Premiere Nights restaurant last November, it was expected that Insight would break their way into the semifinals of The Premiere Nights Band Competition. Now the date has been confirmed, and Tuesday the 19th of March Premiere Nights is going to be under total destruction á la Insight. This is something You do not want to miss...

16.12.2001
The well-known mixer, recorder, sound-engineer and producer Pekka Koskenkanto is a very busy man today with his countless projects, but he has shown green light to work for the new recording of Insight! The band and Pekka start working on a new EP next January (2002). Pekka has been working before with artists such as The Fleshless, Musta Perhonen and the guitar virtuose Kalle Pekkala.
