Stratovarius Community

Just announced that that Stratovarius will be headlining Tuska Sunday, July 1. For some reason, I totally didn't expect that, but I'm certainly pleased! Always love to see this band, even if there won't be new material yet, and my traveling buddy has never seen them. Will be a great way to end a long vacation. Anyone else on going?

that's great! I'm sure I won't be there but I saw an old video of this festival, really cool!
Do you know if TV or radio will be present?

Totally a surpise! But really cool.

No certain idea yet if I could go there but at least I would be very interested. Will see it during this week could I go or not.

I won't... coz I can't. Perkele.

Just booked the tickets , so I am coming . It would be nice to meet you AMBR@BEC .

Sure! Would be great. I'm always up for meeting new people. Looking forward to running into you and anyone else. Maybe people want to post what bands/after shows they will see and maybe we can hook up for a beer or something. Anyway, I'll be taking photos at the start of many of the sets. I'll be easy to find. Don't be shy; say hi!

yeah,,,I be there just bec of Stratovarius

Great show!
Some usual hits like Hunting High And Low, Black Diamond, Paradise and Eagleheart, and some not so usual masterpieces like Against The Wind, Hold On To Your Dream, Visions, Will My Soul Ever Rest In Peace, A Million Lightyears Away.

Kiitos

A great setlist! I wonder if its about the same at every show?

Excellent show, cannot describe it better! The audience had lots of fun during the gig. :headbang:

In my opinion the setlist was really nice, specially Visions (fit well with Tuska 10th anniversary ), A Million Light Years Away and the special one Hold on to Your Dream. And the ballad choice Will My Soul Ever Rest in Peace was so cool. Guess even ST managed to like it.

The show was really very good .Here is the setlist :
1. Hunting High and Low
2. Speed of Light
3. Paradise
4. Against the Wind
5. A Million Light Years Away
6. Phoenix
7. Twilight Symphony
8. Will My Soul Ever Rest in Peace?
9. Visions
10. Hold on to Your Dream
11. Eagleheart
12. Black Diamond

Hey, sorry I missed meeting everyone. I got caught talking to someone with only 2 songs to go and didn't escape until about a half hour after it ended. Didn't see any of you around. Took photos of everyone on the barrier, but still don't see you guys. Ah well, next time I guess.
Did anyone go see Tarot at Tavastia afterwards?

Have a ton of photos I hope to post soon, but just got in late last night and I'm suffering major jet lag and a nasty cold, so it'll have to wait a couple days. Very nice photos already posted.

^^ I think that some of us saw you there

(I'm drunk )
