Don’t forget to check out Hold Tight Henry’s Simpel Sessions Highlights if you have yet to do so.

Nice one Dan for hooking this lot up!

It wasn't me, I swear...

That's what you get for being a lamo and not coming to the club.

Are you noticing a theme here? When you arrive in Tallin you had better be ready for Girls, clubs and party time.

Estonians in their natural habitat.

Girls, blah blah blah...

Even Thomas Vintr and some dude with a large cranium can get a girl to pose with them for a photo.

Oh yes, you had better believe that Austin Seaholme was there.

Peter Ramondetta is a nice guy...

And so is Hold Tight Henry.

Did somebody say "live webcast"?

The esteemed panel of judges.

Deeli caught on camera, or is that Matt Clarke?

Danny Wainright is the 'Big Daddy'.

Possible new recruits for 'The beautiful mens club', Flo Marfaing and Tim Zom.

I managed to snap this rad photo of Liam Gallagher in the V.I.P area. God only knows what he was doing in Estonia.

If I had a photo of myself throwing up the Sk8Mafia sign with Brandon Turner like James from Monster here, I would die a happy man.

Adam Dyet was in the house "Straight Outta Salt Lake".

Lil' B with Ryan Sheckler. "Big pimpin up in da club"

...and the toilets got destroyed. Standard.

Da club.

Da course.

Dave Duncan on the mic holding it down with Estonian translator. Standard.
