I am just so incredibly sad
A horrible, horrible day! I live one hour outside of Oslo and luckily I was not in Oslo that day.

I am just out of words..

YAAAAY!! Fantastic news!!!
Wish you all the best, Jörg!

Happy belated birthday Jörgi

*SCREAM* I might not be able to go the concert in Norway 8th of February :( We are having difficulties finding a babysitter.. The concert is Monday and next day is workday for most people :cry: Crossing fingers and hoping for the best! If not I'll be totally devastated! :twak: :poke: :buh:

WOW! Nice

Oooooooh! Both Strato AND Sonata Arctica at '70,000 tons of metal"?? I wanna be there! I am a huge fan of Sonata and I also like their latest album (after a few listens) and found their concert in Norway fantastic! Tony Kakko's voice is my favourite alongside Timo Kotipelto, I can never chose betwee...

Great pictures!

SHG: How old is your daughter, if I may ask?
She looked fantastic

T-shirt was available at gigs, at least here in Finland. I bought one to my daughter. Great! Thanks for answer. Do you remember what the sizes were like? Were they normal or small compared to regular sizes? The Sonata Arctica raven t-shirt I have is in size XL (!! and it just fits me) when I usuall...

Does anyone know whether these items are sold at the Stratovarius tour? Images and links taken from the official webshop.

GRATULERER MED DAGEN JENS!
Happy birthday

Awesome!
Kinda got a little seasick from the first entry there
Great sound from the audience in Sao Paulo.

Well, when I said "small venue" I meant a closed space for up to 2,000 people (or something like that). Big venues, for me, are places like sports arenas, which can easily accomodate 10,000 people or more. I guess it just depends on how you define "small" and "big"... And a Strato gig at Rockefelle...

Great pictures.
Especially that one of Jens He is so funny!

Do a DVD directed by Patrick Ullaeus, like Kamelot. Their DVD (OCWN) is the best DVD live ever! Agreed! Kamelot's "One Cold Winter's Night" DVD was recorded in a small venue, but it's technically flawless and the band gave a very emotional and energetic performance. A Strato DVD with the same level...

Wow, that was a great video. Great crowd, could hardly hear Timo in there
All my thoughts and condolances goes out to Timo and his family right now, sorry to hear about your grandfather *Hugs*

Omg, that was so cool
Awesome to see my two favorite bands (and my two fav vocalists ) together having fun!
Great video again Lauri

I voted for SA, I actually like that better than Polaris
Took me some time to get into it, but now I love it. Polaris never really hit me in that way.
Unfortunetely I didn't like Cain's Offering at all really..

Preparing for being shot

Thanks Lurdi It's nice to be back too!
Luckily earth spat me back out again

I would like to see a concert DVD.
Like Sonata Arctica's "For The Sake of Revenge".

Sounds great Lovely pictures.
Thanks for posting!

Congratulations Matias
Can't wait to see you and all the rest of the guys in Norway in February!

Big hugs!

To say it like this (to the Ragehead/Rebel discussion): If I had been a new fan registering at this forum, read the threads here and what's going on and all the "unseriousness", I would have turned on my heels and gotten the hell out of here as fast as possible - never to return again. As an officia...

I voted yes. I used to be very active in here, but honestly I have to say I don't like the way it has been "hijacked" by so called funny posters/trolls that always have to make every single thread into a unserious rant of bullshit. It was slightly funny in the beginning, but after a while it escalat...

Fantastic videos Lauri
Thanks for filming and posting!

Hi shg Nice to see that you remembered me
I did get a new DVD, thank God! Amazon had like 2 or 3 copies left of it
Now I keep it out of reach of the little one with the curious fingers

I disagree with you, after many listens. I know many think an album should be good straight away, but for me I appreciate albums more if the songs need to "grow on me". In the biginning I thought it sounded strange, weird, the lack of solos annoyed me and I wondered if Tony had lost his mind. It sou...

Ooooooooooh, I love it
The song sounds amazing and now I am really looking forward to the album!

WOW!
Fantastic!!
Looks absolutely awesome!

I'm a little envious of Pagan's Mind..
First support for Sonata Arctica last year and this year Stratovarius
My two favorite bands!

Doesn't the PM stay in the outbox until it has been read?
