What's up with Stratovarius and mooses vomiting?
On the cover of The Chosen Ones, it shows the "Jörg Michael" moose vomiting on the band members. Many people asked this question when I showed them the cover.

Well, its Comedy, really.
I think its an Elk, not a Moose. The Elk is Stratovarius' Mascot, so to speak.
It is vomiting, I guess, because it is drunk--I mean, in the past the StratoGuys loved their booze!
So, its symbolism mixed with comedy.
At least thats my interpretation. If anyone has better idea, I hope they tell it!

When you throw up, the sounds you make sounds like you call for the elks.

i don't know why, but that amuses me very much, probably much more than it should.Natas wrote:When you throw up, the sounds you make sounds like you call for the elks.

Haha, I thought that was just me laughing uncontrollably when I read that...
But yea, it's just... drunk elks. Puking elks... on janne Wirman's keyboard there was the similar elk sticker but with two of them fucking, not vomiting. I'm not sure which one is worse really, but I think the puking elk is somehow funnier.

boinking elks? ew. i don't even deal well with boinking humans, let alone boinking flatland creatures.
yeah, it was the middle of the night here when i read that, and i can't believe i didn't wake anyone up with my laughter. and what really sucks is that you can't explain to anyone how funny it is, because they just won't get it.
