Helsinki meeting!

[scorp]

I would like to see them together again

[browneyedgirl]

I received a catalog from CenturyMedia yesterday containing a full page ad from Noise/Sanctuary Records which states,"Coming in 2005---NEW Albums from Gamma Ray&STRATOVARIUS!" However, it did not say WHEN in 2005!
But, thats hopeful, isn't it?

You call that merely HOPEFUL? We're talking about a new stratovarius album here.. but anyway, I won't believe it until I see it.

I wonder how credible is this information? Maybe this news comes from period with confusion around MissK, then new album also was announced (the title that was said then is the same as here). So, if yes, it is out-of-date. Besides, it would be weird to hear such news from other source than official web page.

[browneyedgirl]

Even thoug I read catalog, I will not "celebrate" until i see something officil!

Yeah, stay sceptical. E.g. this "new album" could have been announced while the short "MissK-period". We still have NO definite statement about Stratovarius' future. But we have HOPE...

[browneyedgirl]

We will know the answer sooner, or later---meanwhile, life goes on&hope springs eternal!
The news is good that they guys are trying to get along, band or not, and we just need to savor this news&move on until the next phase. If something important happens, have faith that we will be told about it----in the meantime, lets just keep our fingers crossed for Strato, and move on to thinking about the good things happening in our own life.......the guys would want it that way!
Rock on, everyone! :headbang:

I don't see wtf the sauna had to do with anything.

What?? Sauna has everything to do with it. Being naked in a room over 80 degree Celcius with other people is the greatest thing. Throwing water over hot rocks to make it even hotter, beating each others backs with birch branches to make the blood circulate, going out for some beer and then back inside the sauna. Finnish people use sauna as a cure for anything: Cancer, bad realations, headache, bad day, lice, you name it.

Seriously, do WOMEN do all that, too, in the ladies saunas? I bet some are coed, too, aren't they?
I wasn't born yesterday--I'm neither blind, or stupid or naive! Like I say---sounds fun!

[Beast_Pete]

Unisex sauna might r0x. But hey, it isn't fun for a man, if it starts growing... :/

I can imagine that it would be embarassing, but its a natural occurance---women don't pay as much attention to those things as you think. And we have our worries too, like is our thighs too fat, etc.
Anyway, some peoples are naturally accepting of lots of things.

I hope , we'll see the guys re-united once again and recording new material.

Ofcourse women do that, They dont have any problem with the heat at all. Some have a problem with beer, but cider works fine as well.
I'm used to going to sauna with men and women at the same time, but there are separate saunas too.

I wonder how the meeting went on... It was one month ago now and still no news about this. Well we're used to waiting now :S

We waited six months for the last posting, but TT came here between a couple times. If he or other members would post sometimes that may help. Jens usually posts on off-topic. I think he's doing OK--he posted after the tsusami. I guess they are busy living their lives!

[stratowerner]

Kotipelto writes in his guestbook where he answer a question of a fan,that Timo T has to get well first.So i think Tolkki still has health problem,a depression can takes years.So lets hope he gets all the love and support he needs!
