Stratovarius Community

Yeah, Jörg is back...
Yesterday in Paris, we were all excited to see Strato live... the scene was settled, everything was ready...
Unfortunately, at the last moment, the band showed up and told us that Timo caught a bad bacteria that has taken his throat and despite all the efforts of doctors, they were unable to heal him in time for the gig...
Helloween could have played extra songs that night, but no, they sadly didnt and started their show really late in order to start at the normal time... so we had a huge wait between ToT and Helloween...

Anyway, the most important thing is for Timo to recover quickly!!!

I'm sorry for you Arkash, and for Timo and Strato. The show was sold out I think and it's a shit to see this happening. Let's hope he recovers soon. Thanks for the info.

That's bad, poor you.

Fast recovery Timo!

Gargle with salt water. Sleep next to a vaporizer. Watch porno on your laptop. Get well soon.

:S

I think it would have been cool if they had played the entire Elysium album to fill the void

Too bad for TK, let's wish for him a quick recovery

Yeah let's visualize and send good energy for TK

Well, the funny thing (for other than me) is that it was a shitty trip...
I came from the south of France, 80 euros of train, I was to see some friends in Paris: I saw none... I spend the night in the streets of Paris... not in a good neighboorhood but in a dead one, I spend 5 hours waiting for the first metro in a completely desert zone of the city.
I was planning to spend my Wendesday visiting Paris and seing my friends, but too tired, my feet burning me, my back fucked up, I change my train ticket and get back home the first time I could.

Man, that's a shit. You story was a completely disaster. I hope you can get this show in another time and have a lot of fun. Let's hope to see Strato in Madrid...

Well, within some time I will reconsider my trip there and like every time this kind of shit happens, when I'll get rest, instead of complaining about it, I will feel some kind of self pride, thiking it's this kind of shit that streghten you... but yet, I'm still in a tired and angry mood!
And I sure hope I will see'em again as soon as possible!!!

That's what we call "Un dia de mierda"

You should get free VIP-tickets to next possible strato gig in there!

Let's put one oclock back a year...
The 13 of January in Toulouse...

Stratovarius again that night... and again, this day had been cursed: been stoled my Ipod and 800 euros that day.

Seems like any time I'll try to see Strato, I'll be cursed! ^^

Dia de mierda, verdadero!!!!

Maybe Strato is giving you this curse? Maybe it's a message that you should stop listening to them; if that's so, somebody must hate you up there

Haha, I wish it's not true... the Strato guys are too awesome to do that!!!

Last year, Timo accepted to play "Paradise" after I've asked him the afternoon.
Jens is Jens... just look at the Stratoforum.
Matias is maybe a bit shy, but golden hearted!!!!
Lauri is the hell of a funny and pleasant guy!!!
And Jörg is a fucking warrior!!!

I dont think they're the ones who cursed me! ^^
Cause despite all those events, this Strato gig of last year was one of the best concerts I've ever been to!!!

You'd never have to take my words seriously; Strato is that much of an awesome band to be considered as a "curse"

I am very sorry about disappoinment! You can only imagine how I felt when Jörg is back and I couldn't sing. When we come back next time send me and email and you get to meet us after show ?

I actually met two fans after Helloween show in Lyon. They came all the way from Marseilles to see us play. Promoter asked me if I wanted to see a couple of fans and I said sure. I was very tired and disappointed not to perform but it cheered me up to meet that couple. I promised to put them on the guestlist next time we play in Lyon.

I hope (and I am quite sure of it) that Helloween played a good show and people enjoyed the evening.
I am trying my utmost to get back on the stage asap!

Thanks for understanding!

Rock the Metal!

I totally understand Timo and I acknowledge that in the story, you are the one who has the most reasons to be angry and sad!

But my trip wouldnt have been that fucked up, since I was able to take pics with Matias and Lauri, but I sure would have loved to catch you too!

Anyways, thanks again a billion times for Paradise last year in Toulouse and I'll sure send you a mail next time!!! You'll probably wont remember but I'll do it anyways!

And Elysium is awesome!
And again: I totally fucking understand!!!


Mayhem: Well, that can be true too!!! Haha!!!!

How nice to see you around here Timo! I'm travelling today to Madrid. I hope you can play in Madrid. I suppose you can't say a word about it at the moment. Bilbao is today...man, how I whish that you can return this weekend.

Thanks for your kind words and let's hope to see you on the stage!!

I'm just amanzed with Elysium and I need to see you all live again!

I feel so happy to see you here TK, please get well soon dude. We are all praying for your quick recovery, and remember everybody here only want to see you hitting the stage again like you always do. We're all with you

Hi, everyone.

So I swam all the way across the English channel, from Leeds, to see the concert. It took me three days, and I survived on nothing but seaweed and algae. I even had to rob a few pedestrians and beat a lady half to death to get the money for the show. Can you believe it? If that wasn't enough- I didn't know how to read the signs so I went into the Womens Restroom six times. (Although I admit it was only an accident the first time.)

I arrived at the show with one of those giant-gloves the fans wear at baseball games, emblazoned with the Stratovarius logo. I also prepared a gift basket of mackerel and shellfish for the band, that I managed to accrue during the voyage. I even threw in a few of my front teeth, that he can cash in with the tooth fairy at his discretion. Anyway, the concert began and I started jumping up and down with tears streaming down my face, chanting "Stratovarius!! Stratovarius!!". Then, a snarky Timo Kotipelto said he would not sing because he didn't feel like it. The crowd rioted. The venue was smashed to bits. Then, looters found their way in. Someone started a fire. First, my wallet was missing. Then, I had no pants. I'm not entirely sure, but I suspect I may be missing a testicle. My eyebrows got burned to cinders and I had to crawl out on my hands and knees while a bunch of fat Blind Guardian fans crushed my spine, severing my central nervous system. I'm writing right now in a wheelchair at the hospital, dictating this post by wiggling my finger around like Steven Hawking. Only I don't know a fucking thing about physics ,and the only book I've written is a tragedy.

I demand retribution. I am victim. I am a sufferer. I am....

After that........ you morphed into a flaming homosexual.
