BEFORE EUROPE BECAME EUROPE

Here’s a rare old photo with two members of what was to become Europe, or maybe they had started. The date of the picture is unknown.

From Left To Right: Joakim "Joey Tempest" Larsson, Mats Rishaug, Mikael "Björkis" Björksten, John "Jonta" Norum.

The second guy from the left holding the whiskey looks like the bands first drummer Tony ”Pippis Niemestö, but according to those ”in the know” isn’t.
