Just confirmed on Facebook!
Cain's Offering is touring Japan in Febuary next year!

Damn, Japan isn't where I live.

Looking forward to seeing the setlists though.

Damn, I seem to have picked the perfect time to move out of Japan...
And the worst thing is that we probably won't even get any fan recordings from there.

My wild guess is they'll be recording a live album there.

Dream setlist in no particular order:

My Queen of Winter
Into the Blue
Dawn of Solace
Thorn In My Side
Morpheus In A Masquerade
Stormcrow
The Best of Times
I Will Build You A Rome
Constellation of Tears
My Heart Beats For No One
Rising Sun
Child of the Wild (come on, it's a Japanese bonus track, they're playing in Japan, CO never plays live, MAKE IT HAPPEN)

Or Thorn In My Side somewhere in there...

I like very few CO songs. I mean, I don't mind them, but really really like them, not really. They feel like a sweeter version of what Stratovarius has been doing since Elysium.

That said, I'd be fun to see Jani onstage playing the electric guitar, not just the acoustic stuff.

Maybe get some Sonata/Strato covers in there? One of each? Great time to play My Selene if you ask me.

I agree!!

Dang, I don't live in Japan...but glad they're getting out there and playing live, I look forward to seeing the setlist and hopefully some vids.
I'm going to Japan this winter, but I'll probably end up missing the tour....

Fuck I hope they play My Selene. I would love to hear Timo sing that.

I'd be onboard with this.

It'll be an only acoustic show and Jens will have a grand piano.

I second this notion

And they're only performing classic 60s band covers. I really can't wait to hear Timo Kotipelto sing Let It Be.

I hope they'll do a live recording of these shows. Guess there isn't time for frequent CO shows.

I was also thinking. If TK is in Japan in Febuary 2016, I guess Strato will tour there as well. It is called the Eternal WORLD Tour after all. Maybe CO is Strato's special guest on the Asian leg of the Eternal Tour?
