Re: Confirmed Stratovarius shows
I am still sad that you guys are coming all the way out here for ProgPower and not even stopping by to see me. For shame!

Re: Stratovarius headlines ProgPower 2014!
I'd love to go to ProgPower, but I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed that maybe this will result in a U.S. tour.

Re: QUEENSRYCHE Is Back!
I'll be so glad when the court rules one way or the other in November, it gets irritating hearing the band referred to as "Todd's Queensryche" or "Tate's Queensryche".

Re: Tour the USA
It must be slightly true, Jens, or American Idol wouldn't exist. :lol: And to clarify, I mean no insult by saying that Strato is not as popular here as they are in other countries. Because if you *were* as huge here, you'd be playing the big arenas, and...well, I rather like seeing you guys at the s...

Re: QUEENSRYCHE Is Back!
No offense Rebel, but the guys from Queensryche are great composers. Granted, maybe not the level of DeGarmo, the composer that gave them their signature sound; but Wilton and Rockenfield have never been slackers at songwriting either. If your comments about a "shitshow" is in reference to what they...

Sadly, if Jens hasn't acquiesced to your very polite begging by this point, I don't think he ever will.

Re: Tour the USA
Yes, they toured here in '05, '06, and '09. I wish they'd come back here again too, but Jens has explained this a couple of times here on the forum a few times: it ultimately costs them more money than they would earn to tour here. Because our country has sh*tty musical taste (for the most part), th...

Maybe he's just that way 'cause he's still "the new guy". Give him some more time, he'll probably be giving interviews on his own before long!

Re: Portnoy joins Bigelf
Sh*tty growling and douchebag behavior aside, Portnoy is an awesome f*ckin' drummer and it is an injustice to music that he's not in a prog metal band somewhere. So I'm glad to hear he's going back to his roots. F*ck that Adrenaline Mob sh*t.

The same show where the host mistakenly said you were in the band Hammerfall when your name came up (on a different episode). Some "metal trivia expert" he is!

Re: Stratovarius Nemesis World Tour Setlist
Geoff Tate's head is looking more and more like a football, only enhancing his resemblance to Stewie from Family Guy all the more.
Ahem...so, I'm sure Timo's voice, even if he had laryngitis, is a million times better than Tate's voice right now.

Re: A question about Dreamspace and Fourth Dimension
I think Dreamspace is the best of the Tolkki-fronted albums.
As for Fourth Dimension...God, that's an amazing album! The visuals that the music conveys, the whole atmosphere...my second-favorite after Visions.

Re: U.S. Tour
Strato hasn't been here since '09. I know, I've seen them every time they've come to Southern California.
They did do the 70,000 Tons of Metal Cruise last year, but that doesn't really count.
