You probably have never heard of this band, but they got REALLY famous in Eastern Europe, were one of the first bands to tour the Soviet Union. Its a Finnish "pestroika band" which many of its songs and albums are based on the Cold War and the Soviet Union. Songs that have to do alot with vodka especially! A few of the songs would be "Leningrad", "Brave New world", "Nadja, "Matushka", "Zastarovje", "Ivan The Birdman"and of course, "Back in the USSR".


Their "FAQ":



All the family members wear the unique pointed shoes. People, who are lucky enough to actually catch a glimpse of the Cowboys, are always stunned by the magnificence of the shoes. Once they regain their senses, they ask all kinds of questions?

What is the size of the boots ??
Somewhere between 57 and 76

Are you born with such big feet ??
Kids normally have smaller feet than adults - usually the size is only 45 at birth

Are the boots the same for a lifetime of a cowboy ??

Do the ladies have big feet as well ??
Yes, they are just squeezed into very small shoes. Thus the suffering look on their faces

Is twisting easier with the boots ??
Everything is easier with these boots

Are your tractors especially fitted to suit your boots ??
All tractors worldwide are especially manufactured under the LCFSGDÖ - standards because of our boots

When you go to space and meet aliens, what do they think of the boots ??
Aliens are OK, and normally they love our boots, and want to buy them. There are also those, who want to eat them, but we don`t let them do so

At The Incredible Leningrad Cowboys Show the boots do the world-famous shuffle - do they ever do the shuffle anywhere else ??
They are doing it all the time

What happens if somebody else than a cowboy puts on the boots ??
No one has ever tried. Maybe he/she would get on very well in social life. At least he/she would look very rich and healthy

Why should we ??


The Leningrad Cowboys Unicorn Hairdos
One of the band's visual trademarks are the hairdos. Everywhere the family member`s adventures take them, they are asked the same guestions over and over again.

Are you born with the unicorn hairdo ??
Yes, we are. In the village that we come from everyone has this beautiful hair as birthright

What happens to the unicorn hairdo in the shower ??
What is a shower ??

Why is the Leningrad Ladies hairdo different ??
It`s the shape of their head. They are trying to hide it with the hair

Is it hard to meet girls with such a hairdo ??
Well, meeting is not hard. And it`s designed also for kissing

Can I touch the unicorn ??
Try, if you dare...

Who is your hairdresser ??
We don`t need one. Our hair always looks good

Is the unicorn the same for each Cowboy ??
No. They all are individual personalities, which fit perfectly to one`s face

Did your great-great-great-uncles Tonau Maedo and Tonau Sacce also have unicorn hairdos ??
Yes, but in those days men were made of steel and the hair of timber

Are your space helmets especially fitted for your hairdos ??
No, a normal 60 litre aquarium will do just fine. You need to fry the fish first, however !!

What is the size of your hat ??
A good cowboy never wears a hat !!
