Hi Foerg, might be possible

@AAAAAAAAA: http://www.otto-family.eu/SydneyMikko/2013-strato.htm
These were the items I sent and won with
- Sad that the beauty was too small to wear them in the video

@Phoenix666: thanx for the link, I hadn't found out yet that my name was in there, even at first place (that's the advantage when your first name starts with an "A", haha)!!
Waiting now for my pants to come back to me... have you got your items back yet??

Another one with (nearly) 11 years, hello again, haven't been here for ages, but the new tour made me curious
Any Germans here to meet here and there?? Am not THAT active any more as I was in 2003 (14 shows...), so many things have changed...

Ooops... no ESP-guitar yet...
but fitting to this thread, he also got this

He also got this original-signed one http://www.otto-family.eu/SydneyMikko/Fotos/2007/04/2007-04-29.jpg plus a not-signes STRATOVARIUS-shirt and a STRATO-jeans-jacket PLUS tons of other black ones with prints like "metal son of a metal dad", "333 - only half evil yet", "Heavy Metal is my future" and...

...hehe, thanx )
and how do you like Syd's KOTIPELTO-shirt??

@StratoTimo: Our son was made shortly after we had returned from Sydney/Australia, and as we are also big Finland-fans, we wanted to have a Finnish name as well, and Mikko was first choice (as we already had too many Timos in our little village here, haha!!)

@StratoTimo: Do you mean me?? Which name? Heavydolphin or Sydney Mikko??

@Dirge + StratoTimo: I've made it myself, just bought a special kind of paper on that you can print anything and then ironed it on a white shirt ) - My son Sydney Mikko even has a jeans-jacket with the logo *ggg*

@ Stratohawk: am a happy mama now, thanx )

I'll try to put some photos of the Wacken-gig on http://www.stratovarius.de soon... but not too good ones... only could fight myself into 7th row or something like that... - Well, an old mama like I am )

Lazyness??
Did you ever have a look at their tourplan, HOW many festivals they are playing at the moment??
Lazyness?????

...and again, some - this time - quite nice photos that I´ve taken an Bang Your Head on http://www.stratovarius.de ...

...some more, but - I admit - not good photos of Gods Of Metal on http://www.stratovarius.de ...

If you´d like at least some new material in form of photos, you might check http://www.stratovarius.de, as I´ve been lucky enough to see the guys in Italy and Germany recently

@ stratohawk: Right!!, was more comfortable up there..

@ all: http://www.stratovarius.de is finally updated with photos from Berlin!! (sorry, was so busy following the Finns from http://www.thunderstone.de after the STRATOVARIUS-tour...

Finally, my photos from Berlin are online on http://www.stratovarius.de !!

And IF somebody likes HAMMERFALL as well, check http://www.hammerfall.de.hm , too...

@ Stratohawk: seems like we missed each other (
Because of that fanatic HAMMERFALL-fanclub from Austria I fleed from the front row and decided to watch the show from backstage... sorry...

@all: Photos of the gigs in Pratteln and Kaufbeuren are now online on http://www.stratovarius.de

Sorry for posting in English here (my Finnish ´s not good yet...), but I thought somebody of you might be interested:

The WACKEN-Team is searching for translators of their page into FINNISH, if you´re interested write to ingo@ics-woa.de

( I think you´ll get backstage-passes for that )

@ stratohawk: Hey Timon, back in Germany right now??

@ everybody: Finally http://www.stratovarius.de is updated with about 200 photos of the gigs in Cologne, Antwerps and Tilburg..

More to come after the shows in Pratteln, Kaufbeuren and Berlin

FINALLY I managed to put my photos of the shows in Cologne, Antwerps and Tilburg online under http://www.stratovarius.de
Hope you´ll like them...

I told Timo Kotipelto that I could sell the apple ("You need vitamins!") he gave me on EBAY, but he said I would not get ANYTHING for it!!
What do YOU think that I could have got for it?? Still haven´t eaten it

Absolutely right. It´s not Stratovarius´ decision, it depends of which band sells more cds in which country. So it´s German fans´ own fault

As far as I know, HAMMERFALL is headliner at all shows in Germany
Advantage: you don´t have to stand 70 minutes of HAMMERFALL before finally seeing STRATOVARIUS
- Always look on the bright side...

At all German shows, HAMMERFALL is headliner, so HF plays 1 1/2 hours, STRATOVARIUS only 1 hour 10 minutes. In Belgium and Netherlands, it was the other way round. And there they did play Against the wind and Twilight Symphony.

I made 8.000 km in 2003 just to see them

I admit that I´m still not good in creating webpages, but now I´ve worked REALLY hard, and if you wanna see older STRATOVARIUS-stuff and also some Lauri-photos, go to http://www.stratovarius.de

...and if you´re searching for Lauri-photos:
I´ve added some on http://www.stratovarius.de

Okay, throw curses on me that I start this topic (again), but I couldn´t find the older one from ages ago... not on the 23 pages of topics... :? Just wanted to let you know that, if you are interested in photos of the tour 2003: I put them online again on http://www.stratovarius.de :) Kippis + see y...

*oops*, sorry, I rather vanish again...
