in a recent video Tuomas confirmed Song Of Myself to feature about 6 1/2 minutes of his own Walt Whitman inspired poetry spoken by the band's friends and close ones.

Yoshiki's playing music?

a quick update.

Storytime will be premiering Nov. 7th (Mon) at 9:00 on finnish Radio Rock at this location.

and one more photo of album's mailorder edition

not much of an update. I'd say, a correction but still.

on the first day in NAMBA Hatch there wasn't any outro.

macabre_love @ lj.com happened to see the guys at this show and had this to say:

'During gaika Toshiya`s bass was cutting out, the tech guy tried to sort it out with no luck and he switched to a second bass as they were getting near the end of the song. Think the problem must have been with the amp instead as it still didn`t work. Toshiya threw his bass at the amp from a distance knocking all the stuff off the top, then walked off stage. Rest of the band members followed apart from Kyo who looked like he thought they would come back. Staff member ran on and told him　him to go off.

Much shouting and chanting for Toshiya followed while staff tried to fix the equipment, then they all came back and Kyo shouted to the crowd a lot go get the atmosphere going again. Rest of the encore was as energetic as you can get at seated lives.'

looks like the second day was even more intense. the guys gave absolutely no time to rest.

I only hope the halfling didn't screw up.

kyotaku @ lj.com who went to the show had this to say:

'tonight was a total win

Kyo wore a noh mask (which he used before for hydra666) during Blossoming Beelzebub

And Beelzebbub is such a display of his vocal abilities!! Love it.

Akatsuki is definitely a great show for live, has a great response from the crowd as well ^ ^

mazohyst is bit different now (since Biwako show), besides current low tuning, Kyo changed his part quite a bit, he added entry and ending which are bit like his solos, and it goes into Inward Scream naturally. Oh that creepy melody will stay with me for a while ;D'

found it on Tumboner.

Britney Spears used a Nightwish track, FantasMic, as an intro for her Circus Tour show back in 2009:

f8pS6DAXuP0

and here's Tuomas commenting on that:

FrkiBHVzCJs

thank you.

and this

'See, look, here that's song that goes "banana nana, banana nana, banana" embedded right here'

made me laugh the shit out of myself IRL. oh dear gawd.

the guys are now in Osaka for a two-day stop at one of their most favorite venues - the famous NAMBA Hatch.

kyotaku @ lj.com had this to say:

'No matter how awesome the coat Kyo was wearing was, I'm still amazed he actually wore it till the first inward scream, so hot XD

Guys are definitely in their best shapes and the sound tonight was great.

Mazohyst is obviously shorter, but with no huge changes aside keeping current tuning, which sounds totally amazing!'

no different

but of course, since DPP (double pussy penetration, kekeke) was recorded before Anette shown up.

now for Imaginaerum, it was totally written considering Anette's abilities.

I'm telling you - this is gonna be EPIC.

and I think I will be able to answer your question about release dates tomorrow.

that awkward moment when you realize you miss Tarja no more, huh?

here comes teaser for Storytime video.

I came. twice.

yep. just a somewhat mixed up version of yesterday's one. still pretty much epic to my viewing.

me gusta.

something tells me that the only kanji you know is [no]

have to say I'm pretty much surprised to see no one's expressing happiness about Ruten No Tou finally making it into the setlists

now THAT'S what I was talking about.

the guys are my favorite again.

Nucler Blast's very own Mailorder Edition includes a third CD with one track, Rest Calm in its demo version with Marco Hietala on vocals alone

.. AND a very special mirror.

70€ + shipping costs. like whoa.

it's 24th in here which means TOUR2011 AGE QUOD AGIS continues with its second domestic leg.

keep checking this thread for updates on setlists and other stuff (if there is any).

I'll keep it up and alive.
