^ Besides, what would he be writing for here on the forum if most fans are elsewhere nowadays? He's not on social media so not like he's gonna pop up on Facebook or something any time soon. The band's social media has become more active than it used to be to make up for it, I think. More varied content involving all the members in recent years and more of a presence since that's where people are. If Mr. L ever decided he wanted to write little blogs or studio diaries on the website though, however infrequently, I'd certainly read them.

At the end of the day though we're lucky the band wants to keep in touch with fans at all since many bands don't really do it much and keep a respectable distance. And honestly I don't blame 'em. Marketing and engagement may be an important way to get ahead in the music business, and I love sharing time and ideas with like-minded individuals I admire like Lordi, but we have to remember the band's job description is to make music and play shows. Anything else they want to do with us beyond that is a plus.
