I hope so cause that would kick much ass

You're walking along, minding your own business. A crisp autumn afternoon, you hear the crunch of the golden leaves as you walk down a beautiful gravel path leading towards a tranquil lake. But as fate would have it, a burly bearded hobo with an eyepatch tackles you from behind, grabs your wallet, and takes off! Outraged at this disturbance, you follow him. Your heart is pounding, your once clean Helloween shirt is now raked with mud and sweat, but finally you reach out and grab him. He swivels around and punches you right in the nose! Not to be outdone, you kick him in the nuts and the battle carries on.
Some minutes later, as you both lie bruised and battered near the lake shore, panting, sweaty and covered in dog feces, neither of you have the energy to finish the fight. After a while, the hobo says, "you know, i'm sorry about punching you in the face. that was really stupid!". Overcome with remorse, you apologize for kicking him in the nuts. After all, losing your ability to procreate makes losing your debit card insignificant by comparison.
So after a while, you guys get up, brush the dog feces off each others pants, shake hands, have a big warm hug, then the thief walks off, still with your wallet in his pocket. You get in your car and drive off, thinking you've accomplished something.

They were friends before for a start. No one is walking away after being robbed for another point.

I just hope that this means we'll be seeing some tours with both bands.
Who knows maybe TT will come out and play some Stratovarius songs with the band similiar to how Kai hansen plays some Helloween songs with his former bandmates when they tour with Gamma Ray.

Don't go too far too fast...
It's great if they talk again to each other, but let time do its job, we'll see later if something happens...

Well I don't care what anyone says, I think it's cute that they went out on a date. And what's even more awesome is that they chose to tell about it on the internet to celebrate their relationship in public. Maybe in the future a day will come when two dudes can go have dinner, catch a movie and hold hands without other people having a discussion about it on an internet forum.

Quite an apt parable in my opinion. Nice to see old friends getting along on a social level. I think it would be wise to keep it that way. Now does the guy whose still missing his wallet at least have a piece of the cake left at home?

Has TT mentioned this "burying the hatchet/patching things up" on the RR Forum?

Both bums made a bunch of yummy cake! Who cares about the wallet, cake tastes better than wallets

I find it funny that some of us seem disappointed that TT and JJ are getting along again so they make fun of it.
if you don't like it I'm sure there's plenty of bands out there with excess drama you can cling on to.
As for me I'm glad this is happening and that we can get back to the subject that matters which is the music.
I'm shooting for a RR and Strato tour

JJ and TT are good friends, they were always good friends. They had problems like everybody has sometimes. They are good friends again and that's fantastic. And Polaris and AoA are fantastic too.
And yes, TT mentioned on RR forum all these really fantastic news, and he mentioned that Return to Dreamspace will not bear the name of Stratovarius.

So, we can toast to RR&Stratovarius and finally breathe a sigh of relief now? Thats cool. Yes, a tour of both bands together sounds interesting.

Is the verbal fighting between two friends really the same as the physical fighting between two strangers? As for the financials, Jens is likely getting more money overall this way. We can help him get the money, and cake, by buying stratovarius material and catching friends onto the band.

Friends have verbal fights as well as fist fights sometimes, what matters is if the friendship is strong enough to overcome these things.
since TT and JJ can put aside their disagreements I'm sure there is hope that we'll see a RR and Strato tour

I hope not. Let them do their own things for a while first.

Read the thread about the new RR song. JEns posted it there.
Or search for "Stratovarius" on Blabbermouth.
