Talk:Alexi Laiho

message: I think it's worth noting that he does much of the male vocal work (and he spits!) for Sinergy. I can't confirm how much of the male vocals he's been doing live since Marco Hietala left, but it's even noted on Sinergy's wikipedia page (and obvious in many of their songs) that his role stretches beyond guitars. He sings in at least one song on each of the currently released Sinergy albums. Agibson714 (talk) 07:50, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Is there a source for the statement regarding Alexi's marriage to Elyah?  I hadn't heard that anywhere.  Upon examining the history, I saw Dislexi Le-ho removed it, but Saber girl08 reverted it.  That puts me under the impression that it is generally known that they are married.  I'm a little skeptical, but I see Saber girl08 is a respectable wiki-er.  To sate my own curiosity, can someone produce a source?  Thanks :) FalseLobster 05:03, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I was going through some online music forum, when I saw this pic of Alexi Laiho kissing this bearded guy on the lips. My question: is he gay? Can someone explain this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.112.204.213 (talk) 06:52, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

message: He isnt gay he states so on the Stockholm Knockout Live DVD interviews. I'll write something about it on the page. Can't have people thinking my hero is gay... not that theres much wrong with that82.20.247.133 01:56, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't the biography section be divided into several parts? I think it would look neater that way. Just a suggestion. If no one wants to do it, I can do it. --Zouavman Le Zouave 10:48, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Biography 

message: According to the page:
"He has the letters "COBHC" (Children of Bodom Hate Crew) tattooed on his hand as an homage to Ozzy Osbourne, who has a similar tattoo."
Ozzy osbourne has a similar tattoo? As in he has COBHC tattooed on his hand? I don't get that quote — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.176.50.180 (talk) 10:31, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I have seen in many pictures his tattoo is actually the letters "H-A-T-E" (right hand) and "C-O-B-H-C" (left hand), maybe that part should be changed so that it's clearer. 210.246.12.54 08:24, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

message: "as the RV shape is a copyrighted Jackson shape"-wouldn't that be a patent, not a copyright? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.33.85.65 (talk) 06:56, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyright?

message: The article states his name as Markku Uula Aleksi Laiho. Is there a proof for that? Everybody could come up with any names. I will delete his "full name" if nobody can prove that it's his full name (i.e. link) because I think that this is wrong information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.52.190.175 (talk) 09:42, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The remaining trivia is not very important and could be totally removed from his profile. Does anybody agree?Abtreibung (talk) 21:06, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trivia 

message: The 'fortunately' there is pretty subjective, various parties would not agree:
1: 'The right to commit suicide' upheld by some, the argument of 'Requiring people to stay alive who want to die and at the same time punish those who 
require those to die who want to stay alive (murder)', those would argue that he had in that 'fortunate moment' just been denied the right to judge over 
his own body and existence as a conscious force.
2: Some people might just want him to die, sounds harsh, but it's still an opinion.
The 'fortunately' here still presses through the opinion that suicide is always 'bad', as I hail from a country which has legalized euthanasia and assisted suicide and has recognised the right of any citizen to ultimately value for themselves if they consider there life worth living, I find this 'fortunately' pretty nonobjective here.

message: it says Blooddrunk has 3 songs which are in D and it also says all of the songs in Blooddrunk are in drop C except two songs. So which one is correct?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.204.23.16 (talk) 18:47, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

message: It said that Alexi would be participating in Wintersuns new album. Is there a source for this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.44.17.121 (talk) 04:57, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Participation with Wintersun?  

message: The last couple sentences in "Equipment" sound very un-encyclopedia like.
"He asked Jackson to make him another one, but the time-table they gave him for its production was too long (around a years time). ESP came to him and said that it would take around 3 months for his new signature model to be up and running so of course, Alexi took this offer. Thus he switched to ESP guitars."
Someone revise please?

message: However, John Petrucci replied "I'm better than Alexi? Of course not. If I am, that would mean that I'm the best guitarist in the world! That guy can play fast solos while he's drunk!".
There is apparently no source given for this statement. I googled it but i found nothing. Sounds a bit like statement by a worshipping Alexi-admirer. -- 87.185.123.46 (talk) 14:10, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Violin 

message: The article starts his career in 2004, with  Kylähullut, yet bodom had been around for a good 11 years by then. Anyone want to write about that, cause it seams weird that nothing is said about Bodom in the beginning of the section.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.116.18.202 (talk) 01:23, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Career  

message: This article is simply horrible. For example, in "Career" section there is every kind of junk like his comments on Dream Theater or how he is engaged in Pontiac cars but nearly nothing about his career (there is some unimportant side project mentioned in the very beginning though like that was where his career started). I putted the rewrite tag. I'm not a fan of Laiho or CoB so I unfortunately can't participate in rewriting myself.  ML (talk) 13:12, 21 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  A substandard article 

message: So I noticed there is nothing in the article about his failed suicide attempt, while I know it was there before. Where did it go? And why? It is well known information, I don't see why it should be erased. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.169.205.134 (talk) 17:24, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

message: "In February 2011, one Purehmv (Canada) member redeemed a Children of Bodom Alexi Laiho Signature ESP Flying V guitar for 1,100,000 points, the highest point total redeemed to date."
Could someone explain what this means? Also it's not cited. Øln (talk) 21:22, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

It was planned that he does on an US tour. But the band did not receive permission to travel to the US.
So the shows were canceled.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.5.194.129 (talk) 14:08, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
