I wasn't sure whether to burst out laughing or die of shock.

Super points for originality, for sure.

There has been a conversation of that happening in the Finnish side already a long time. http://www.stratovarius.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6774

Interesting choice.

Gotta say I'd like to see Tolkki trying to play that song live as fluently as this guy, even with his own ESP electric guitar. Oh yeah, I'm dreaming.

Whatta hell..? Tolkki can play it at lot more fluently than he did (some parts of it in Visions Of Europe's Holy Solos), but it must be a lot harder to play with accordion. Great performance, no doubt about it. 8)
