In January, Sillanpää told Iltalehte that in the operation, his right hip was cut and a titanium artificial joint was inserted. He said that he had been suffering from osteoarthritis of the hip joint for years. Four years ago Sillanpää had surgery on his left hip.
– Before the first surgery, I had suffered from pain for two or three years. I was waiting for a miracle cure and the guys rushed to the surgery. In the final stages, it was such that I limped onto the stage and sat through half of the songs, the singer recalled.
– Even now, during the autumn and Christmas tours, I was sometimes really sore. I had to walk carefully. It was heavenly to get surgery, he said.
