Imagine my surprise when I rediscovered this! Long ago, I was making captions from a comp at work, and I ended up saving this as a draft in my email. I must have decided against it, because I had completely forgotten all about it! Updated slightly. Enjoy!

Poets of the Fall-Introduction

Photos by: Tiia (I think) and an Indian magazine (would love to credit the proper author) Photos resized.
Image
Jari
I sit awaiting your command
With trusty drumsticks here in hand.
Know that our music isn't complete
Without the backbone of my beat.


Image
Jani
My job is to keep the melody in line
With deeper notes I intertwine.
If you should happen to fall from grace
I've got your back as your smokin' bass.


Image
Jaska
Every melody is a dream
It's great being a part of this team.
We may be fools, or we might be kings
But I know I love playing with all these strings.


Image
Olli
Across the stage I leap and prance
While my fingers do their tribal dance
I do all of my solos with a practiced flair
(And with a toss or two of my hair.)

Ah, the good ol' days... :P

Image
Captain
I am the good Captain, I hold all the keys
That unlock the melodic mysteries
By mixing all the notes together,
I help to make the music better.


Image
Marko
It is I who bring the songs to life.
With words that cut you like a knife.
If my songs can heal, then that's my choice
To use my best instrument-my voice.


Image
The gang is here now as a whole
To conquer the world is our highest goal!
When you need to rock, who ya gonna call?
Us, of course! Poets of the Fall!

Marko meditates

Jani: Wow.. Meditation.. I'm inspired.. I think I should start too. You're great, Marko

Olli: Are you kidding me, Jani?

Jaska: Hey look, he's meditating.

Captain: Yeah.. I wonder why.

Jari: *lost in thought*




My first attempt. :P Do tell me if lame. :P

TheArtist, that fits so perfectly. Why you ever abandoned this idea is beyond me. This is a beautiful tribute to all the band members, individually. <3

theepicevilpotato, not lame at all, great caption :D

@TheArtist, wonderful! :lol:

Do you mind if I try too? :oops:
Pics are from here, here and here.

Click
Marko: "You know, you're my new best friend."
Jani: "All right, if I get the hat."
Olli: *thinking* "Did I hear right? What Marko just said?! :shock: "

Click
Olli: *thinking* "The hat was mine! MINE! And the friend, too! Grmblll.."
Jani: "Don't you dare try anything! I have a deal with my new friend!"

Click
Marko: "I will calm the ocean for you..."
Olli: *thinking* "This is all his fault. He'll pay!"

Click
Olli: "TAKE THIS!"
Marko: "OWWWW! Stop! I'll do whatever you want, but STOP!"

Click
Marko: "argh"
The photographer: "...and that's in the news! :twisted: "

---

Click
Marko's telling fish stories again: "Yep, one of the perches was this big!"
If you've read a certain interview, you know what he's talking about...

Jani: Where's the food?
Olli: The waiter said he served it five minutes ago, but now it's gone...
Jari: There's no food! How we are supposed to do promo shots now?
Jaska: I don't know. But if I find that idiot that ate it, I'm gonna break his neck!
Captain: *thinking* That weasel Marko! He did it, I know it! Look at his innocent look!
Marko: Look calm. Nobody's going to see your dirty hands. Look calm.

Starring contest - it's always fun... except doing it in the middle of a gig.

Considering how Marko was joking about taking off his pants, the last one is especially funny. :D :D :D
