“We’ve weathered severe storms, but the house withstood everything turned out to be weatherproof and stable,” he continued. “However, building the house was never just cumbersome, but joyful as well. The joy of music, the joy of having experienced and still experiencing it all, the joy of — and the thankfulness for — the fans’ affection. We have been working hard for this dream, but we’re thankful as well for having been able to live it and for still being able to live it today.”
