Performed in the night
- It's all in either case, if a group of people who work together to achieve something, "said Henry in the NHL-arranged meeting on classic rock club Webster Hall, where the Hives appeared in the night.
- And even though hockey games and rock concerts are different, I think it works much the same on a mental level. It must be as focused and there must be the right kind of chemistry in the group.
Hives singer Howlin 'Pelle Almqvist and his "teammates" nods assent.
- We of course heats up, we view our "matches" we. We also need to find our focus.
- One difference is that alcohol may help us more than it would help you ...
"Henke" laugh out loud:
- Yes, it would probably not be as successful if I took some iron before a match.

Something similar sporting interests are difficult to trace the boys of rock, but guitarist Nichalous Arson In all cases, good control of hockey.
- I actually play hockey bockey with veterans in Fagersta AIK in the winters, he reveals quite sensational.

Per Bjurman
- Sorry, I got none, but Dad made sure that it later came a signed photo from the New York Rangers, where Sandstrom course lirade then. It became my favorite club. This is why it feels really great, "he continues, and keeps up the signed shirt" Henke "has been with him for a fellow.
Lundqvist looks as happy about the Hives t-shirts he gets in return.
It is not just on the ice, or on stage, chemistry occurs.
It could be in for a meeting between two different worlds, too.
