Autumn Greetings!

Post by TimoTolkki » Sun Sep 19, 2004 11:00 pm

Autumn greetings to you all from between the light and darkness.
I thought I camp out here for a while, questions can be asked too, if you wish.
But most importantly, may you all people have a very joyous and
magical Autumn.

Hello Timo, it's so great and nice to have a message from you. First af all I would like to than you for one of the last show, the one in Vizovice, it was great to see and hear Stratovarius live. As regards questions, I think there is only one, but as important as hundreds of them, and it is: What's next with Stratovarius?.. Please, tell us, whatever it is? Is it only break, or do you talk with each other, or whatever. Anything you say will be very precius for us.
Take care, have a great autumn too !
So where does the power come from to see the race to its end?

Thanks for letting us know you're still with us, Timo. And autumn greetings to you to. :)

All I wanna know is this: where do you find the inspiration for Strato's songs? And what songs have a special meaning to you?

Have a great automn too (it is Starting the Spring in Brazil but anyway..the world is always divides between darkness and light).

By the way :
May the light always shine when darkness tries to ruin you.
I hope you have a great autumn (or spring if you come to the south of the Earth...)
And well. you know the question number 1 between Strato/Tolkki/Kotipelto/Jens/Jari/Jorg fans.
You may answer when you think it is the rright time.
And I got a new question :
Have you ever thought of making a solo instrumental album, like the Millenium form Malmsteen, with classical stuff and all that ?
Anyway, have a great year.
Good luck, and it is good to hear from you !!

:jump2: Glad to have you back&see you are feeling better! :D :luv1:

Betwen light&darkness??? I hope that means the time in Finland between Summer&Winter? I'm guessing you folks have a short Autumn, not as sharply defined as people in USA, for example. Autumns ARE always magical in USA--and, my fav time of the year! :)

Questions? When is DVD coming out? Have you all started working on new album? And, How do you like your new career in studio?

Again, soooooooooooo good to see you back here, doing fine&as of right now, as you probably know, ;) the Forum is completely peaceful now! :D

Happy Days to you, TT! :D

Greetings and God's blessings, Timo!

I want to know if you plan on (if the band gets back into gear) touring the USA. That would be sweet if you guys did. :D

Thanks Timo. Greetings from fan from Poland. It is good to see you back, great show in Vizovice - i was there.

You should really see autumn in Poland. We call it "Zlota polska jesien", which means "gold polish autumn". That is because all leafs turn brown, yellow and gold colors. We have many leaf forests and parks instead of coniferous. So when autumn comes, the landscape turns gold and it all looks very magical.

Stay metal!

Well.....its been a week&TT has not returned to answer our questions.
But, he has all the time in the world! Just him coming here to post is a positive sign, I think. Let's all just be thankful for that!
Lets all be patient.........:)
And remember, he is probably a busy man these days!

I don't think it's time for we ask about Strato situation. I'm really anxious to know things about the band too, but considering what happened to TT and the things he had faced we should only hope he's feeling fine and don't throw thousands of questions to him. I think when he's ready he'll let us know about the band situation and everything.
