How come you are not sure about this Jens? Haha what's happening with the organization of my favorite band? I don't like to read those comments like "we are not sure, maybe" and on the other hand some pages already making business of it. It should be more communication between you and your manager or i don't know who manage those things i think.
I just listened to the samples, man, it's great listening to the new songs live (polaris) and "Bach: air suite" it reminds me a bit yngwie but this is way better because it's STRATOVARIUS hell yeah!!
Looking forward to buy it

Remember people let's buy it original, no free downloads as we we want STRATOVARIUS for long time
Cheers everyone from Monterrey, Mexico (i'm moving out to puerto vallarta in 1 week because i want to play my drums at the beach haha, let's see what happens, wish me well buddies, have a nice day)

I'm pretty ignorant on these matters, but can you please tell me what it means in the case of the digital version? What difference does it make when you compare the digital to a normal cd?

Sounds awesomely awesome! I don't like how you can't hear the crowd though. Too bad the Destiny sample was just the intro. I just hope I don't have to buy another Polaris for the physical album. :/

LIVING POETS SOCIETY!!!
I sold my lizard, I sold my cat,
I sold my hamster, I sold my rat,
Now I have funds to buy this CD,
I'll grab one, maybe two, or perhaps even three
But I still feel strange sensations,
Joys, confusions, and frustrations,
So- unless you're running late...
Allow me to elaborate
Confusion 
Why did they choose to contrive...
The name of this album as "Polaris Live"?
Putting themselves at considerable risk,
Since half of those songs aren't on the disc
Rage 
No one would dare disagree,
That we'd prefer a DVD,
Surely its agreed upon,
We'd prefer the concert in Milan
Satisfaction :bounce2:
The album cover is first-rate,
(Perhaps a product of too much booze),
All the songs are sounding great,
I like Matias' taste in shoes
Psychotic :crazy1:
Sorry for being the same old grump,
But i'm still hungry and need a dump.

Digital version is what you download from internet, legally or not

. Usually in mp3 format which is packed and compressed to smaller size. Every time music is packed, it loses some quality.

For some reason the thought of eating a "dump cake" sickens me. Coconut cake looks real good though...
And by the way you are one of the best poets in LPS...Not that there are so many
Where is Nea, I wonder. I haven't seen him for days. I mean nights of course.

Its very tragic, since I never even got to say "Bye Pablo". Last I heard, he was trying to auction off his mammoth. Potential buyers were disappointed to find that it was a Woolly Mammoth...they are just too damn hairy. :nervous:
I don't know anything about a dump-cake, but i'm not surprised that those shitbags have manifested themselves in this way. Perhaps there is a better use for them though? Stinky could rub them onto his skin as a moisturizer.
Thank you! But I always thought I was the third worst...

I heard samples. It sounds very interesting. The music is separated from crowd and part of vocals is corrected. I can't wait King of Nothing after 30 seconds which I heard. I've still never seen this one LIVE. I'm waiting for Polaris Live and it is one of the main reasons

The cover is cool. It seems to me in the background are fans from Buenos Aires. When will be more information from the band?

Like some have said, I don't want this to be relased at a digital pack; I too want my CD! And I don't care if I have to buy Polaris again!
BTW, ass-kicking sound and awesome samples

(Also, is Matias playing the "supposedly" keyboard solo Jens does at the beginning of "King Of Nothing"? So cool!)

If we wanted complete perfection we'd just listen to the studio version. I think it would be really lame if they edited the vocals. Most of the fans have seen Stratovarius live anyway and have reasonable expectations...

Almost always live albums are corrected and produced other ways, whether we know it or not. It has not been a big deal in years.
And yeah, who cares abot digital (like if CD wasn't digital too

). Where's the album cover? The booklet? The CD quality? I want a concrete CD, not some bits. You could as well download a digital one for free without really hurting anyone, except for the stupid, whoever it is to blame, label?, that decides not to release a CD which I would definitely buy.
I used some I passive there, since I'm really buying it even if I had to buy another Polaris. If this will be the case, I'll really give my old Polaris to a friend.

I think it's time for a live dvd,with some good material.Stratovarius never released a decent live dvd and thats a shame for such a big name band.
And for those who think what about Infinite visions,i mean decent
