Don't worry. If you are lucky you will be "older" some day.stratobabius wrote:That's strange...I guess it goes with the culture of each continent...

Yeah, in USA its not that unusual to see quite a few gray-bearded&salt-and-pepper haired people at Metal concerts. Just because its snow on the roof........

Re: TONIGHT! STRATOVARIUS IN QUEBEC CITY!
Well my dear, Metal started in our generation. Black Sabbath is ours, Kiss is ours, Metallica is ours and many others.
Metal started in the US and they exported it over you guys, like you sent Nana Mouskouri to us ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
No offense.
We just can't let it go. My generation also brought Disco, imagine! We were really crazy but we had fun and we still have. Thanks to those Finnish, Sweden and German guys who come once in a while visiting our countries.
Anyway, youngsters like you or old people like me still have many things in common: we love metal, we love Stratovarius and our politicians are probably as intelligent and honest as yours.
Love you all.![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Re: TONIGHT! STRATOVARIUS IN QUEBEC CITY!
I just realized that I maybe made a big mistake when telling you guys that Metal started in the US. Did it really start in the US or in England? Feel free to spank me if I was wrong.

Not too hard though.
Love you all again.

Re: TONIGHT! STRATOVARIUS IN QUEBEC CITY!
All right, we're talking about Metal, like Heavy Metal. Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, ... But with Stratovarius, we're talking about Power Metal witch, in my sense, is very different and not well from older people. May be we're you live. But when I talking about Power Metal with people of my generation and where I live, they don't know anything about it. Of course, they Metallica, Judas Priest and the others. But don't ever talk about Stratovarius, Blind Guardian or Sonata Artica. I've already tried.
Re: TONIGHT! STRATOVARIUS IN QUEBEC CITY!
I'm not sure, but the name Heavy Metal was given by someone whose was talking about Black Sabbath's music. Am I wrong?Martine wrote:I just realized that I maybe made a big mistake when telling you guys that Metal started in the US. Did it really start in the US or in England?

Re: TONIGHT! STRATOVARIUS IN QUEBEC CITY!
Wow, this comment of mine turned into a discussion...
I didn't say they've stopped enjoying life, it just looked strange to me.
I was really happy to see people from other generations at shows and I'd be really pleased if I could attend when I got more...mature myself.![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
