Stratovarius Community

will be the opening band in the european leg of the tour St+HF. At least there's a banner from AFM-Records promoting this band on a spanish web. They are swiss and make some good hard rock! Try to listen to them!

Have the band any english web site??

Here is a link:

http://www.shakra.ch

But i've not seen some tour dates with Strato and Hammerfall...
The music is nice though.

why do they need a fucking openig band??!! that means, that they will play not long!

The songs of Shakra are fucking great.

I've seen live a couple of times and they kick ass....
It would be a nice experience, for those who don't know them, to see them live on stage!

Only one hour Strato is just to ridiculous :shake:

I think Shakra will play as maximum 6 songs. With 30/40 minutes is Ok for them.

"SPOILER": SETLIST, roll over with the mouse to read it!!!!!



Then, this may be the HF setlist (this is what they were playing last days of tour)

Secrets
Riders of the storm
Renegade
Let the hammer fall
Hammerfall
Drum Solo
Fury of the wild
Glory to the brave
Hammer of justice
Crimson thunder
Heeding the call
Blood Bound
--
Templars of steel
Hearts on fire

... againt this????

Its the same thing!!

Support bands play BEFORE the time that strato will play.. and if not they will kick them out or stuff like that

I saw shakra allready live. I can tell you, that they're just great!

greetings from switzerland!

Good music.
Shakra: 1hour, Hammerfall: only some stupid tunes at the nearest pub, in the same time playing that they are the strongest heroes of the world and Stratovarius after Shakra plays about 3 hours of fucking great songs!

You mean 24/7? LOL. How the band can stay on stage playing then.

They could have a toilet break every 4 hours.

I agree with you htcdude.. That setlist sounded good, there are songs I definetly want to hear but they don't play Visions (southern cross) I guess it's so old-fashioned.. But fortunately I have the "Visions of Europe" -album.

oh guys, I saw Shakra any time and they played everytime a wonderful gig!!!! highly recommended!

i've heard a few songs of them, first i thought it was gotthard.. they sound so similar!

I've seen them a couple of times now, and I'm no big fan of them. If they were not from my country, I would never have listened to them.

They played before Iron Maiden this summer, and it didn't really fit well. I think it would fit even worse with strato...

Of course
What did you think?

Looks like Shakra will really be support on the tour, the homepage of Shakra says there will be a european tour in november... they are not famous enough to do one on their own, so...

oh yes they will do! I have seen last weekend on the poster that the M-3-Tour will be supported by Shakra. I still can't wait until the gigs! It will be a wonderful evening that I promise!
