Today we celebrate the 50th show of Matias Kupianen.
Matias has truly gone a long way since the time we took him to Lappajärvi to try the new Polaris material one and a half year ago. He has shown not only to be a great guitarist, composer and a performer but also a great guy and a true member of the band. I (Lauri) cannot remember when was the last time i had such great time on tour. I really hope all of you enjoy his presence and music as much as we do.
P.S Today we had a fantastic time playing at the packed "The End" club in Buenos Aires, Argentina. We thank you all from the depths of our hearts.

Tonight we drink to Matias!
See you on tour!

Re: Matias turns 50!
First of all, Congratulations Matias!!!
I was there!!!
I have seen Stratovarius fourth times but I think this time was the best!! The venue was full! It was really hard to breathe. I was on the corner, when Lauri played almost the whole show. It was amazing. I have no words.
By the way,Lauri: I'm still laughing about the comment you made to my boyfriend about his girlfriend chasing you to the toilet!!
Thank you guys for that awesome night!
Thank you: Timo, Lauri, Jens, Jörg and Matias.

Re: Matias turns 50!
Hail Matias!!!!
Through the storms we've wandered
Many mountains we have climbed
But all the bad times are behind
The road is free - I'm coming home

Re: Matias turns 50!
Wow what a gig to celebrate feast day. The place is like Tampere Pakkahuone with four times people allowed to full Pakkahuone!
We light the 50 candles to you only in our minds - for the safety reasons!

Re: Matias turns 50!
I'm really glad to hear that and so far everything I've heard and seen from the band has been genuine and true! Out of all the things those Argentinians could have done that night, they decided to come and see YOU guys!

I was there in Bs. As. It was incredible! My first show. The set list was GREAT. Will my soul ever rest in peace, was a big surprise.

Re: Matias turns 50!
Indeed. I always thought this song will carve out a miserable existence as one of those bonus tracks on compilation that never gets played live and is mostly forgotten.joakofortress wrote: I was there in Bs.
