Strato

Leper Messiah · Post by **Leper Messiah** » Sat May 03, 2008 5:25 pm

If do you think, Stratovarius was a inspiration for too many people, almost a reason for life. The music that composed TT is beautiful, the combination of metal and classic music, is really perfetct. For others, is only good music, but behind of Stratovarius there are persons, and they have felings. If they can't still together, it is not a matter of "ok, play together and bye bye", TT is the heart of Strato and he will record New Era in RR and that will the end of Strato, no the actual split.

I hope the music of Strato will stay in our heads. I will make a band in tribute of Strato, and i will start to compose music. Maybe we will meet in a stage in the future.

(Sorry for the errors, im chilean, i speak spanish

welcome to the forums!

I was thinking of making a band in tribute of Stratovarius but here in california that would be extremely hard. No one likes to play this kind of music =/ Black and Death Metal are the popular ones here other then just normal heavy metal, cuz Metallica does live here lol.

Leper Messiah is a song by Metallica if that's what you mean.

There are some questions left about ex-Stratos...

I know that Kotipelto still have his solo carreer (which in my opinion is not very good, and he surely never will get great success with it), but what about Jens Johansson???
He spent so much time helping Timo during all these hard years that I find it quite unfair to let him without a band just like that... And he's quite a great keyboard player! I hope he'll soon find a band up to his talent.
What about Lauri?
Because as i've seen, he's also a very talented bass player and he deserves a great band too...

It's not "just like that". These things are complicated. Not black and white.
If your parents divorce, what can you do?

Do you have a day job? i have and if the boss stops with his business then it's over for me to,so you have to find an other way to make money.
It's the same with the ex-strato-boys.The big Boss made de decision to stop the band!

You forgot to mention that the boss then makes a new business

(though this is different, I do wonder why they aren't together if they did so good

Jens Johansson is participating in some projects, like band "Art Metal". Lauri Porra is very busy... He just released a solo album, and he plays also with Kotipelto, in addition to many various projects. Jörg Michael is also at least in Headhunter. So they have other projects besides Strato. And now it even seems like they are continuing together, so don't worry.

I've been told an xbox 360 is a better overall investment.

I'll just wait till the PS4 comes out and then get a ps3

I like my 360, especially all the good games it has, so I have no reason to buy a ps3.

I've heard that Jörg just made only drums to album of Headhunter

He is not in the band more than that...
