Band
Olli Pitkänen uses binoculars backwards to see close. In the band he sings, writes lyrics and makes the vocal melodies. Usually he’s the first one to grow tired of staying at home - and starts yearning for the next tour. He allegedly escaped from Never Never land.
Hape Haavikko does most of the composing and plays the guitar. He runs his own Fakiiri Audio recording studio, which also serves as a rehearsal place for The Spyro.
Antti Luokkanen plays the guitar and sings "la-la-laas" and "whoo-oo-oos". Makes people laugh during soundchecks by singing german dance hits or Finnish oldies goldies.
Toni Korhonen plays the bass and is the unofficial "drunk producer" of the band. He pours out heaps of arrangement ideas when new songs are played and the rest of us try to figure out what he means - not because of intoxication but because of the "musical terms" he uses.
Simo Ojanen plays the drums like Animal! He's twice as tall as the rest of us and likes gay giraffe tattoos.
