well that sucks a lot
but the other hand is heavier, jörg's recovery, that really is great to hear/ see from the man himself!

FUUUUUUUCK! it's a lot of pressure from both sides of the coin!!!!
i can't understand, why sir Tolkki involves a legendary band, into his life changing process, for this side, it's very ''not'' understandable, i mean, you don't have to finish, o attempt to finish your band, the legend, because you ...

I'm not biasing people. I am answering to Jens' post. People can think whatever they see best. It is not case closed behind the curtains it seems and that is why all this is continuing. I am just saying to Jens that there is no logic in accusing me about those things in the light of what I wrote ...

agree with that!

si bueno, yo opino que esta bien su opinion, siempre sale algo bueno de lo malo...pero, bueh
no soy argentino! soy de Francia pero bueno aprendí español por q mi madre es de Venezuela

anyways, keep on metal

don't start comparing...
none can reach Kotipelto's voice, i know who's mark boals
but he has not the same ''timbre'' nor the same prowess... boals is more like...judas priest kind?
dont compare donkeys with nana moskouri... =/!

how is he gonna do? if tollki decides...in one of his TOO MUCHO CRAZY decisions...to sing, really high ranged songs like
-Find Your Your Own Voice
-Learning to Fly
-Millenium
-believe it or not, Against the wind?

Gus will DEFINATELY not reach that...for sure, he can make more variations/polyphony ...

@ Timo


I think that you have repeated over a 100 times that you won't make as much money in RR compared to what you can earn in Stratovarius.

You've also said that you had a final statement, yet to keep on coming to these fora to continue the discussion.

And then again, you have made the same ...

aw come on!
you can't say lemmy's a god...
you need to say the things correctly, he has a laong musical trajectory, a legend...
but you can't say he's a god...no one can say that
first of all: he's no virtuoso
2d: his lyrics are too much alike one of the other
3d: i dunno XD!

but well...to conclude ...

OH MY FIRST CORRECT reply!!!!! YIPEEE!!!
well....i hope Strato's new album will be very awesome! !
oh and im really touched about Lauri not being there anylonger, is there's reasons, then we are all ears!!

T-T i feel stupid! XD
i dunno how it marches a forum crap dammit XD!
someone forgive me?! XD HAHAHAHAHA!

but....can you say that johansson cannot play piano? a real piano? have you listened to his acoustic cd? it's MARVELOUS! really really inspiring! something that DEFINATELY JEWdess can't reach!
JEWdess studied at JEW-illiard! i studied just one summer session there and i was horrified the way they ...

OKEEEY I GET IT!!!
sssoorrry XD!
i'm not really used to be in forums and/or tuff like that XD!

AWESOME! XD XD XD XD!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
great one! Stratovarius Of Fire

but let's face it! now the epic italian band's now called
Rhapsody Of Whatever

i Definately agree with NeonVomit
jens johanssons scales, patterns, and solos are VERY of the neoclassical style :arrow:
listen his acoustic piano cd, he's just amazing! he's not just a keyboards player, he raised with piano teachings with his father Jan Johansson!
his digitating mode is too much ...

i have his adagio cd,Dominate, he sings...not bad...but he's some sort of Labrie clone
a very versatile voice, pretty good, but let's remember Adagio is a Prog/Symphonic metal band
R..R is a Power/Melodic metal band...
Gus doesnt posseses a VEEERY high Range in voice, even thoug...thats a brave ...

Tuomas Wäinölä

This occurred to me now.
NAAAAH!
he's way to boring live! he uses the same scales
not to disrespect you of course, you had a point on that but, face it this way
-if that happens, it will become kotipelto number 2
-his guitar playing, he has certain prowess, but hes not a VIRTUOSO ...

well... yeah, i mean, he's not a bad keyboards player...but it's nothing to do aside of Jens Johansson... jordan's more of the ''tricks and programmings'' of the machinery he owns, johansson, as q REALY keyboards shredder, he's simple in the way of patches and effects are, but...look at his stuff ...

oh! yes that is for sure!including those people are busy with their own lives
but, i insist about russen allen, he sings for Ayreon's Star one project also
kai hansen sings a whole bunch for angra as well ( recordings here) tobi, well, he recorded, and was good...kiske, really couldn't appreciate ...

Hm well, it's all a matter of taste... Concerning Jörg I shared your opinion some years ago. Nowadays I think he is not such a special drummer. He is fast, of course, and he always had a bombastic sound on the really good Stratovarius album productions. But listen e.g. to Jordan Mancino (As I ...

Great news! I'm really looking forward to hearing new material made by Kotipelto & Jens & Lauri & Jörg.
Lauri is a real genius, a real musician. You can check his solo stuffs to see what I'm talking about. Same thing about Jens. A couple of days ago I heard his Last Viking album, this is ...

Also, a GREAT co-writer!
ride like the wind, fantasia, find your own voice!
thats the reason johansson is my BIGGEST idol !

well!
why dont we give a tought to think nothing?
:) it's not that im calling to quit the forum, but
let's leave it a little bit to whatever it comes ahead XD!
for a new guitar player in the Stratoband, how i wish it was Stefan Forté (adagio), but.....who knows? theres too much talent
for future ...

well......let's Start
1st of all...he HAS accent ( he's from Brazil)
he singed in TAKARA (replaced jeff scott soto)
he recorded Adagio's Dominate (2004)
i really DONT LOVE his voice!, but he's really versatile and poliphonical, he can modulate very easili :)!
that's all youve gotta know to find out ...
