WOW! Seven months away! As unpredictable as life is, I'm almost afraid of making a reservation that far in advance. ???
I think I'll just stick to the CDs&Videos, and leave the concerts to you youngsters.... knowing my luck I'll fall and break a leg the day before the show! :D

That's funny....I ...

Here's the dates I received so far FYI -

March 9, 2005 - Into Eternity announce fall tour with Stratovarius!

Century Media pressrelease:
Currently on tour with Amorphis in support of their 2004 release
"Buried In Oblivion", Canada’s Into Eternity have been added to Stratovarius’
fall tour ...

4000 Rainy Mights...No, no...
It was Forever! A live recording of them doing it in concert. The crowd was singing along.
For me, it was one of those WOW! moments. I don't know what it was about them but I
instantly fell in love with the band and HAD to hear MORE!

Hahaha! It was around August 2000 ...

Not that I've heard yet.

In the past, quite often, when bands play ProgPowerUSA it is their only North American performance.

I hope not. Since they finally made it here they should play EVERYWHERE! After all, we've waited Sooo long. And after last year, never thought it could ever happen.

I plan to get myself down to Atlanta IF I can get a ticket. (This is an extremely small venue)

I do hope they play some other dates/cities here as well.

Halloween greetings to you all!!! Muhwahahahaha!!!

Its in totality right now, here.
The most beautiful phase is when there is just a sliver of moon shortly before totality occurs! Looks spooky, too! :D

It ws really cool! And here it was kind of spooky as well 'cause we had low wisps of thin grey clouds that would track across the view ...

Been here a while but I'm still pretty much a newbie. Don't know if I ever properly introduced myself....

Hi all, I'm the MetalMaiden. I'm from the US and have been a metal fan since Zepplin and Sabbath in the 70's. Discovered Strat in the late 90's when metal seemed dead here. Turned out it was ...

You are all right!!!
Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen have ALL covered Beethoven's 5th on guitar.

Have someone of here ever tried the sweet wine? I am of the south of Spain (Málaga), so I recommend the Málaga Wine, sweet, really sweet and smooth.... try it, you will not regret! :wink:

Not too long ago I was in Spain. Drove from Madrid and Toledo down to Granada and I can say I experienced ...

Caipirinha!!!! Just tried one per some of your reccomendations....I was at a Bazilian Steakhouse.... It was a hot and steamy summer night and this drink was just awesome! Must add this to my list of favorites!

I really like them too!
A friend pointed out some similarities between them and Queensryche. ie the vocals, guitars and The LOGOs.

IDIOT

I love them! They are a Swedish (Thrash/Punk?) Metal band! Their music is just a whole lot of fun, and funny too. Check ot the website (www.idiotmusik.tk) although its in Swedish only, you can still get a feel for the band and you'll find lots of MP3 samples of songs there. Enjoy!!:D

The picture is very nice to see.....it shows they are getting along better. Very different from Piorno when they basicly took seperate bows.

I have to agree - Jörg is a great guy!
