My first concert was Alice Cooper in 2007, at the end of that concert, I got a guitar pick from the bassist that a roadie threw... after that, in 2008 I watched Nightwish live, and last year was my first Stratovarius concert, in this one, the only person in front of me was Jens Johansson... This yea...

I'm in the apparent minority that likes both Tarja and Anette's singing. It sucks that Tarja's gone, but I think DPP was pretty good. More on topic, I think all of the Iron Savior albums are underrated. Also, I think (spare me the doubtless criticisms that will come from this) The Days of Grays is ...

if wasnt the for the bad refereeing, the game would be perfect...

Kaká was expelled in a foul he didn't make...Elano recieved a violent foul, and the Ivory Coast player wasn't punished...and the valid hand goal

Finland: 2
USA: 3
Austria: 1
Germany: 1

mostly from USA, but my favorite bands are from Finland

IE 8...don't know why, but I don't like Firefox at all...

I just love that part in Winter Skies, I even learned to play it by ear, but I can't pass the emoction that the original song does, I need to pratice it..

well, in Brazil in the shop didn't have these models selling..dunno if in other countries will have/had...

A bit off topic, but at their gig in Turku I was standing right in front the stage, almost leaning on to it. Jens and his keyboards were just about 4ft away so I had an ecxellent wiew to follow his fingers fly on the keys. me too, but I was in Sao Paulo, is just fantastic viewing his fingers!! I lo...

that's sad, I hope he gets better, it must be something serious, for having to cancel the european tour, but, he can't die, he is God (Dio in Italian means God)

just another question, when I see Johasson's pedal, I noticed that there are 2 of them, one sustain, and another one that looked like a wah-wah, anybody know what pedal is that? its a Expression Pedal, the Roland EV-5 if im not mistaken. I think he uses it to bring in the Delay on his lead sound. P...

wow, that gave me some ideias for creating new combis...since Korg X-50 doesn't have any aditional banks (if you create a new combi, you have to replace one original)

oh you say haha! creating sounds in a korg X-50 is really hard, and i think it has to be done via computer , but it can be achieved and well done anyhow :) i'm having a shitty time with the korg creating sounds and patchbanks, but some day i will arrive at it, some day :P Yes, I use the computer to...

No such thing as a stupid question! The Korg TR rack is a rack version of the Korg Trinity which uses ACCESS(Advanced Control Combined Synthesis System) as its tone generation system. The Triton Rack uses the HI Synthesis tone generator. This is the synth engine all of the Tritons use. Now that I t...

uh yeah, it had empty slots to store the vst's etc. it was a real good synth, i wonder why korg stopped it. and yeah, i saw a Muse Receptor in a music instrument shop and i t was 3500 € it's like...4000$? something like it? anyways, t was expensive as hell, oh talking about it jens, you should real...

"Yyy, kaa, koo, nee" - my throat suffered in this...

bugs, something that will ever exist on eletronic things...

one day my Korg X-50 bugged, it had stopped all commands...I had to shut it off, and then it back to normal

I noticed that Lauri played Bach's Toccata e Fugga during one of his solos to..

yes, must be his grandfather, realy sad, and Kotipelto was very strong to do this show, even with this burden!

I noticed that, but I don't know if he turned it off, or just changed its configuration, I was near, and it looked like he moved a knob, or somthing like that..

Thank you for the answome show last night, with no doubts, the best show in my live, standing in the front, very close to Jens was perfect..

but, did I understande correcly, Kotipelto Grandmother died last night?

if was that, my condolences, even with that, was a perfect performance...

Tuomas Holopainen already played for 70.000 (at Wacken Open Air), and he still says what Jens said...

actually, Dark Passion Tour was the biggest tour in the band history...

well...for me, the old songs are better with Anette, and IMO, her voice is special...

another opera singer would have too many comparison, and, I belive that wouldn't achive new fans, and would lost some...

that singer would certainly be a *much* suitable replacement for Tarja than Annete. No way! For me, Anette is the best thing that happen to Nightwish.. for those who compain about her voice, try watching some recent videos (like the last show of DDP Tour in Hartwall arena), she is much more in tune...

Me too!

yeah, me too...

If this band was a different style, it could be without intention, but, being a Heavy Metal band, and using this name, I have no doubts that was chosen with this intention

in Piano: - Bohemiam Rhapsody - Queen (this one will take a large time to complete, there are so many notes, it's hard to read) - Dance Of Sugar (Nutcracker Suite) - Tchaikovsky - Tales from the Vienna Woods - J. Strauss in keyboard: - Mother Gaia - Stratovarius (just the ending) - Ever Dream - Nigh...

Actualy, I don't listen to classical music, but I really like it I play piano, and sometimes, I search in Youtube some videos, and I wish to play them some day...in these days I'm learning Tchaikovsky's Dance Of Sugar from Nutcracker Suite... I wish to see The Ring of the Nibelung someday, sadly, it...
