See you soon at a european metal festival near you.

Lauri.

"OH MEIN GOTT!"
Those videos are just awesome! Please keep them coming!

Hahahahahahaha You guys are sick.. Just sick
How much has Jörgi been drinking in that clip, Lauri? Sounds a bit "in a good mood" (to say the least) as we say here in Norway

Thanks so much for the video, really made my night!

Might as well ask here-
How do you rip DVDs into your computer? Lauri? Do you plug the camera into your computer or do you use a driver to rip the DVD?

I think there are programs with which you can rip DVDs onto your computer.

I'm still waiting for the 40 DVD Tour In Progress box set with deleted scenes and director's commentary track.

Hahahahahahaha this is awesome !!! You guys are so funny, hahaha I think Jens made the most annoying sound ever (even better than the sound of the guys from the movie "dumb and dumber") hahaha.

Stratovarius #2 on Finnish charts, that's great !! Cheers to that! Guinness, yeah !

Dammit I wish I was there cheering with you guys hahaha, it seems like a funny time (and tasty drinks hahaha)!!

And the song goes like this... "La cucaracha, la cucaracha, ya no puede caminar, porque no tiene, porque le falta, marihuana que fumar" And It means... The cockroach, the cockroach, already cannot walk, because it does not have, because it does not have, marijuana to smoke.

Hahahaha, keep those coming, regards! :):):):):)

Stratovarius higher you go !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hyvä munkki!
Jens did sound rather annoying

And I tought that Jens was the Sane one.


Hyvä Munkki

and Jörg has to practise his Finnish.
it's not Minä rakastan sinua suomi but Minä rakastan teitä suomi.

The next 29 hours were equally exciting, you should try it sometime. Lock yourself in a bathroom for 40 hours with 15 people and see what happens.

Actually if I turn off my auto-pilot travel complaint module, the trip (as long as it was) was pretty relaxing and fun in many ways too. Boredom is the mother of much invention. And since everyone had a horrible hangover somehow the threshholds of amusement become rearranged in some sort of weird lazy happy maze. Especially Lauri said many things that day made me laugh for minutes. I have a clip somewhere from that same day of him rapping in German...

I think my novel "variable length mangled end phrase" version of "la cucaracha" deserves more credit for being highly fucking annoying.

The correct version is like this:

La cucaracha, la cucaracha,
ya no puede caminar
porque no tiene, porque le falta
las dos patitas de atrás.

My improved version goes like this (complete with the wrong article el):

El cucaracha! El cucaracha! Lalalalalalalalala!
El cucaracha! El cucaracha! Lalala!
El cucaracha! El cucaracha! Lalalalalalala lalalalalalalalalalalala!
El cucaracha! El cucaracha! La!
El cucaracha! El cucaracha! Lalalala!

etc.

The point is to make the lalalas as annoying as humanly possible. Repeat like that at the top of your lungs until someone strangles you.

Hope this helps,

Hahaha I'd really like to hear/see that
And yes, Jens, that noise was horrible

Hahahahaha, i dreamed some years ago that i met Jens and he was talking in Spanish o.o.

Great video!!

mwhaha One of the funniest Stratovarius videos ever!

Hahaha, Jens you are absolutely right! I agree with your philosophy, and I really like to see the bandmates laughing, I see you guys like never before, you all seem to be happy and the relationship within looks awesome I'm really happy to see my favorite band like this. Excellent vibe around.

And about "La cucaracha" well that's the "spanish (spain)" version.

The "mexican version" is the other one (about the marijuana) and it's true (no kidding), the mexican version was very popular during the "mexican revolution". So we have those two different versions of the song. (The spanish one (spain) which talks about "the feet of the cockroach is damaged so it can't walk" and the mexican one which talks about "the cockroach needs more marijuana to smoke to be able to walk" hahaha sounds like a joke but it's true, believe me, I'm mexican) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mu_L4nTqIxA

Anyway, I rather the stratovarius version than the other ones for much more hahahahahahaa (lalalalala)

Regards everyone!!

P.S. Info. about "la cucaracha" here... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Cucaracha

Both lyrics are: *500.000.000.000.000.000.000

Please Ragehead, make a wikipedia entry for "El cucaracha laaaa laaaaa laaaaaaaaaaaaa" Jen's remix 09 version. el cucaracha could be our terrible president Zapatero for example.

Mwahahaha what a video!

Guinness is great, isn't it!

Simply hilarious
Thank you guys, Hyvä Munkki

Nice video! Listening to music and then singing is always a good way to learn a foreign language! Jens, second lesson should be La Macarena!!! (oh God, how I hate that song)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN62PAKo ... L&index=24

And then a third lesson for advanced level. If you understand anything it's because you have a very advanced level! Here we go with Aserejé!

How about we compose a song called "hyvä Munkki" to help people learn Finnish

After almost 40 hours of travelling, I would also laugh about anything. Thanks Lauri; and Jens: simply hilarious !

For some reason, Lauri really reminds me of "J Peterman" from Seinfeld

"Dansa med oss
Klappa era händer
Gör som vi gör
Ta några steg åt vänster
Lyssna och lär
Missa inte chansen
Nu är vi här med
Caramelldansen
O-o-oa-oa..."

Actually no, Jens should sing Levan Polkka, by Loituma.
