No shows, no joy. It´s a great opportunity to be back to their old status. To play with Weiki and co. will force Strato to play and perform to the limit. Good tour! :)

I don't know where you guys put pics or something like that around here and I'm too lazy to search :D But since all this seems to be just a few days old, I post it here, pics with Alex Landenburg in a practice space in Germany:

http://www.the-pit.de/fotos/article/fot ... mber-2010/

There's also some kind of article about their time there (German only):

http://www.the-pit.de/special/article/s ... proberaum/

They have been practising songs from Elysium there, so... can't wait to hear them live next Wednesday :jump2:

And I awfully want to see the setlist, too!!!

Edit: Helloween didn't play Wake Up The Mountain :cry:

Moco, eh? :(
Oh well, on the other hand, when I think about the translation of Lauri's last name, it could still be worse ;)

Die Setlist der kommenden Tour mit den deutschen Power Metallern von Helloween lässt bereits im Proberaum so manches Auge aufblitzen. Der Inhalt bleibt hier natürlich geheim und wird erst auf den Shows von Stratovarius preisgegeben.

secret setlist?!? thank god, stratofans aren´t curious...

What a boring setlist it is. Again more of the same old songs.

I miss at least one more song off Polaris - I mean hey, it's still the latest album by now :? If I would want to convince people that I'm still able to write great new songs and that it's worth it buying my new records, I'd play some more of the newer stuff...
But maybe it's a setlist meant for Helloween fans also, who may probably know most of the older songs as well?

That's probably true.
I hope that when they do their next own tour they get rid of Hunting High and Low, Black Diamond, Speed of Light, The Kiss of Judas and Father Time.

I'm sad they took of Forever. Hey, it's a classic!!! One of the best ballads of all times! They should always play it! Cant get tired of it!
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

* Phoenix
* Legions
* Darkest Hour
* Kiss of Judas
* Deep Unknown
* Eagleheart
* Father Time
* Paradise
* Speed of Light
* Hunting High and Low
* Black Diamond
Same old setlist, nothing special. Only thing I can state, I'm surprised they already included "Darkest Hours" in the setlist, and "Phoenix" as an opener - epicness :D! Otherwise, normal setlist

Yes, get rid of the most popular in demand songs, that will help them gain fans and please the majority of concert goers. Make a set list that only 10% of the concert goers will appreciate and throw in lots of obscure songs that no one listens to from the cds. After all, it will only be another year or more before their next concert in an area, and we all know how people cause riots if they hear a song 2 times in 2-5 years, some even cause a riot just by looking at a setlist of a concert they did not even attend.

It was freaking great post nonetheless! :) Thanks icecab, for now. :d

Still, I thought they were including a long epic, and not Visions or Destiny this time. Oh well. :(
