well... i have to ask jens first...

[mocobhc]

Eh, he didn't get your point at that time... that the only reason you are working for is to be able to see them that often, not the other way round as he supposed :p

RazielSR,

sure, I promise to post ! I am listening their album just now,(Elysium) and it was a dream for me to see them... and Hope to have an autograph too (I know another band that play this day in this show,a french band "Sueurs Froides"),and they promise me to help me to meet stratovarius, so I take pictures, and I'll post them as soon as I come back !

I'm happy to meet other fans of this great band, and if someone come to Denain, it will be a pleasure to meet them ! (sorry for my english... that's a long time I don't pratice...).

I let you the link, if someone from france (or belgium, or from everywhere !) want to come... there stays places !

and just want to say, that this festival is an initiative from a great man, initiative of a deputy mayor of the city who died two months ago ... Patrick Roy so come everyone with ... a red jacket (understand I think for all french metal fans !)

Here from you soon !

[mocobhc]

Colmar was good, but terribly short! Less than the Helloween support slot. Damn I finally want another headlining tour At least I got to see Judas Priest for the third time, that kinda helped... Small vid tbf here: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xkfca8 ... 2011_music

Hey mocobch many thanks for the pictures and the video! The stage seems cool and big, that is good. It seems they were very relaxed and TK was singing really good, without forcing the voice, more calmed and controlling the situation.

True dat, Timo was singing very well, technically they all were on top as usual, and they seemed very pleased about the audience's reactions. I think no one, band nor fans, would have minded a longer set

RazielSR, you're welcome!

Edit: Here's a nice Speed Of Light vid, bit artsy at the end but decent audio http://youtu.be/ZnHB3faLXnc

Oh crap, I've just realised we need to start practising for the show on the 27th! I'm back in Cyprus now so at least we can do something about it

Amazing mocobhc, amazing videos. There are more in youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87VCSxcb ... re=related

That concert in Colmar was great it seems, seriously, I think is the best in the whole tour, at least the best I have seen in youtube. I wish I would have seen them like this in Madrid past January... , but well, TK was ill and all that stuff. Let's hope to see them again next year headlining a tour.

Well I'm sitting at a bar, playing Magic the Gathering with Stefan our keyboardist and listening to some metal! We hit the stage at 8 and Stratovarius a little while after. Can't wait!
