Other Facts: Lauri is the bands
songwriter. All the lyrics has a special meaning to him. It can be a cry out for help or a confession."My lyrics are always
personal and every word has a meaning that reminds me of something that's happened", he says. He is also acknowledged as one
of the leading composers of Finland today.
It was his big sister that encouraged him to sing. Lauri made the song P.S
for her.
The producers made him smoke more cigarettes if his voice didn't sound rough enough. He still smokes a lot...
Lauri has had many different hair styles
through the years, now he has the black style with feathers in his hear, and no, they don't grow out of his head...! 
His secret passion is drinking. And he enjoys going to a lot of parties. He is a very outgoing person, but still shy,
he doesn't open up to people very easily.
Diligence, humbleness and always thinking about other people’s feelings
as well, is his key to happiness.
His advice: Keep it unreal!

spirit in the band. He is also in another band, Korpi Ensemble, where he also plays bass. He started to play bass the age
at nine!
He stays at the hotel rather then go out and party with the other guys. He quit the drinking in '98. He says
that he was drinking much and that he did a lot of stupid things, so he had to quit.
He does a lot of meditation and yoga. He says: "Sahaja
yoga gives me a peace of mind." He kinda unites the band to be "down to earth".
And he knows 4 languages!
My opinion is that Eero is the one that shows the most
attention to the fans. He always says thank you to the fans for being there. He also has said that he sometimes goes to the
International The Rasmus Forum. He is registered in the UK forum on the official UK TRpage and has posted there several times.
