[methos]

This is my first post ever on this forums, and i just registered so i could review the concert that took place 2 nights ago. I just hope the band read this forum.

IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!

Well, when Timo Kotipelto first talked to us he said the band was expecting little attendance, about 100 people he thought, but that definitely did not happen... we were about 7000 !!!!! and we were all ready for a Stratovarius concert!!!!!

I would really like to thank Stratovarius for droping by at a Caracas and giving us such a great concert, i just had a blast and i hope they come visit sometime soon.

I also have a request: please include Destiny in your set list next concert i just love that song

again... from Caracas, Venezuela... THANK YOU GUYS

IT WAS A HELL OF A CONCERT!!!!!!

Venezuela loves Stratovarius!!!! YEAH =D

After spending couple of nice days in Sao Paulo we headed for the last show in Venezuela.
That involved again a long travel via Panama. We landed to Caracas 15 minutes before huge thunderstorm broke out. Next day it rained like hell and we could not do any soundcheck and we were afraid that we might have to cancel the show (the venue was outside). But the rain stopped and sun started to shine and we even managed to do a soundcheck. Unfortunately we had to cancel the support bands because of the delays and a strict curfew. Sorry for that.
It is fair to say and I am sure I am speaking for everyone, that we have never seen an audience like there was in Caracas. There truly was something magical in the air. Even the place was like an amphitheater in the middle of exotic trees,a very beautiful place.
The energy was just overwhelming. You could just feel it. We could not believe it, it was so amazing. We will be back!!
