Stratovarius Community

The small UK tour just ended and it was quite successful. We would like to thank Eden's Curse and Firewind plus crew, who were all great guys! Sorry for the long-ish Stratovarius soundchecks on the first couple of days, there were a few technical gremlins to work out, these were the first gigs in a long time and TK was a little bit under the weather too.

Check out the support bands at the links above, they play some awesome stuff. And some of them are quite capable of shouldering their share of the burden, when the task at hand is to drink all of Dublin dry!

Next we invade Russia!

It was good Jens, the first shows in a long time and it was really good. Step by step will be better.

YES AND SUMMER IS HERE!!!

It was really good,even better that I thought.
Hope Koti feels better now.

Love you all!

Good work! I hope polaris will go top 10 in other countries! Good luck for coming shows!

Great news Jens!

I was watching the youtube videos and I have to say it. You did a fantastically good concert. Good luck in Russia. And have a nice day!

Good luck in Russia, you guys are kicking asses !!!!!!!

The videos on youtube look awesome, great shows !!!!

Message to Russia: HIDE ALL OF YOUR VODKA, STRATOVARIUS IS COMING

Good luck guys!

OMFG Jens is gonna drink tons of vodka I'm sure

Just to remind -
In Russia you can get vodka flavoured with whole chilies, they swim in the bottle, that gives the kick indeed

prepare Mother Russia!

Have a nice summer Jens, Jörg, Timo, Matias and Lauri
Enjoy the rest of the tour!

I wish you all the best for the rest of the tour!

(and I really hope I'll come to Hellfest to see you guys!)

I can't imagine any better surroundings than Ireland for drinking rehersals for meeting the challenge in mother Russia. Irish are tough to beat on whisky consumption (even for the steel-livered Finns!) but the Russians are pros with pouring down vodka, as we all are well aware of.

But we trust on you guys, you're gonna be the last men standing

Nice

Hope Stratovarius will come to play in South America too

Congrats! At least you're not trying to invade too late in the year. General Winter can be a real bitch, or so I've heard. At least you'll have some Finns to keep you company.

I'll drink to that! I'm 1/4 part Irish at least, (from my mother's side of the family)

Well, winter or not, I'm sure that there'll be plenty of anti-freeze for Finn, Russky, and Swede alike!

NONE FOR ME, THANKS!!
I MUST THINK OF THE BABY.

BESIDES, ALCOHOL IS WHAT GOT ME PREGNANT IN THE FIRST PLACE!

Not again!!!??? It must be physically impossible !!! Why do you never learn?? Is it Icecar again?? Why doe's he never learn?? He can't afford this. Poor altarboy. And poor you. It must be almost unbearable after all your problemdelivers. All good thoughts to you there in Venezuela if that is where you reside now??? Just saw that you now live in Indian Vonderland. God heavens Lord.

I'm 1000% it's A10. They both seem to be online at the same time.
If it's not, then it must be Jens...
