And true love, which lasts over 5 minutes, in the world of musicians is kind of rare these days.

Stratovarius have released a lot of bullshit as "official news" before.
This is what I wrote in Kotipelto forum about it :
"I don't think it's a marketing thing.
I'd rather say it's a "star" syndrome. You know, when you are used to read your name everywhere, that people says "he is a great song writer, his band is great", and suddently no one speaks about you anymore, you want to feed the machine so you can see and hear your name again and again, and not think you are a "loser". For example some actors or musicians can fall into deep depression when their music doesn't sell anyone."
I think I might be right on that part.
People might hate me here, but I am pretty sure the Stratovarius soap opera of last year was just the beginning, and that Tolkki's health is doing bad again. Hopefully I'm wrong.
My orginal post was actually not about Jari's leaving, but about Tolkki in the finnish tabloids.Black_Lion wrote: Oh how I hate when people has nothing to do and post stupid things... Jari left the band and It's a fucking sad fact. Dot. No marketing, no mental states, no star syndrom, no bullshit... he has his personal issues and that's it. It happens in 80% of the bands, someone leaves.
that means something like "Jari decided to leave, cause he wants to focuse on his family.Bändin pitkäaikainen taajuusmaisteri Jari Kainulainen on jätti hiljattain yhtyeen, koska haluaa keskittyä perhe-elämään

Ask him yourselfe! He's email adress is: jarikainulainen@kolumbus.fiIceBreaker wrote:How do you know that.Neron Ballerina wrote:Jari will continue to play metal, just not with Stratovarius.
could you post the e-mail?fifthtea_sausage wrote:I sent him an email, and he said he's already created a new band.
This means that he left for personal reasons, not because he wanted to spend more time w/ his family.
Well, not necessarily. If he wrote "I've formed a new band called the Jari Kainulainen Project, for which I have imported five genetically engineered musicians trained at Julliard", I'd be inclined to agree. But if this new band of his is him hooking up with a couple of old friends, looking to play some metal but with a less hectic touring schedule than Stratovarius, leaving to spend more time with his family sounds perfectly reasonable...fifthtea_sausage wrote:I sent him an email, and he said he's already created a new band.

Maybe all concerned are under some Legal Orders not to publicly discuss the situation.stratohawk wrote:though it seems quite obvious, that jari is not in the band anymore - I won't believe anything until they set an official statement on strato.com. and there's still no statement...
Yeah but a change is not a bad thing. Hopefully Lauri will bring some fresh blood and why not new musical ideas.NeonVomit wrote:Stratovarius will never be the same again without you
Maybe he will write some new songs in future? I mean if Tolkki wantsMaFiaBoY wrote:Yeah but a change is not a bad thing. Hopefully Lauri will bring some fresh blood and why not new musical ideas.NeonVomit wrote:Stratovarius will never be the same again without you

Fare thee well, Jari.
And fare thee well Stratovarius. The Real Stratovarius, the Titan can't exist without TT, Timo, Jörg, Jens or Jari...![]()
