Elysium, please! :D

Giants or Kill It With Fire would be interesting, too. Not sure what they've played live before and what they haven't. Maybe they could also do a fast songs medley, combining parts of each fast song from every album. That'd be cool. :)

Future Shock
The Hands of Time
We Are the Future
Against the Wind
Speed of Light
Forever Free
Anthem of the World
Glory of the World
Learning to Fly
... (There aren't any fast songs on S/T :lol:)
Blind
Event Horizon
... (Nemesis is a hard one. Maybe include parts of Halcyon Days?)
My Eternal Dream

I'd love to hear some oldies like Wings of Tomorrow, We are the Future, We Hold the Key, Galaxies, and Hands of Time. I really like some of the songs from that era of the band (Twilight Time to Fourth Dimension).

I would also love to hear Eternal in its entirety. I think its a very strong album.

Yes. Eternal live. That'd be awesome. Like they did Polaris live.

Soul of a Vagabond or I Walk to My Own Song (sounds even better when they played it in D minor)

From the new era, Feeding the Fire is underplayed and it's a better version of Paradise. Man in the Mirror/Fire in Your Eyes haven't been at all. Both sound like they'd be fun to sing along to.

From the old era, the new lineup brought back The Hands of Time and pulled it off well, either that or Out of the Shadows would be cool.

Elysium live has been a dream ever since I heard it for the first time. And Nemesis (the song) was only played live a few times during Finnish Nemesis tour I think, I'd like to hear that one live again, too. Maybe include the rest of Nemesis album when they're at it :lol:

They played Visions in full before, right? That would be nice to hear their newer albums played in full.

Episode and Visions both.

And I agree, something like Eternal in full would be cool... I don't know how many people at the typical Strato concert only know the old songs and how many have listened to the new stuff. I know when Sonata showed up to my town almost nobody was singing along to the singles from the last two albums, a few for X Marks thr Spot, and almost everyone for the classics like Fullmoon.

But the last two Strato albums are actually good so maybe it's different.

Probably Elysium, but I highly doubt a band like Stratovarius can play something that long in a live context: Power Metal fans are usually retarded dudes unable to stand something long and complex and usually prefer the same cheesy short songs over and over again, so the setlist is based on average tastes

From the new era:

Giants
Fireborn
The Game Never Ends
Nemesis (it has been perfomed already but not enough times)

And, of course, Elysium.
Likely or not it's a dream that we keep and odds with our senses we'll climb. But if faith it's the answer then we've already reached it, and if spirit's a sign, then it's Only a Matter of Time.
