    Turisas covers

    I actually wrote out sheet music to this two years ago and posted it on www.tabit.net: (http://www.tabit.net/tabs/list.php?f=4088) The problem lies in the fact that it costs $20 to get this program. I do think, however, that someone has taken this and put it on Guitar Pro, so at the very...

    [TOUR] DragonForce + Turisas World Tour: US/CAN

    Heh, Grigorii - Mathias made someone in the crowd trade him a Guinness for the Abita Amber that they brought on stage during the New Orleans headline show. It was great though, because there were literally 30 people there, so you could hear everything everyone was saying. Mathias: "This beer. ...

    Poll - Best song off the Varangian Way?

    Voted Miklagard as well, but this is like asking someone to choose his favorite child. 'Portage' is a very, very close second.

    Paint

    I took this advice and went as a mix between Hanu and Olli - because I knew I was going to be standing directly in front of Hanu and Olli :) I suppose it worked well, Hanu acknowledged me a few times and I doubt Olli could've missed me yelling his name since the crowd was so small. FWIW, this...

    Paint

    I personally just use Grease Paint, which you can get anywhere for under $2. It doesn't crack or peel like water-based paint (so no need for hairspray :P) and it'll come off fairly easily compared to some of the other products mentioned here. The harder question is. . .who do I paint myself as...

    Attn: Kiuas fans...

    First post since October 2007. Hi, guys! What are your OTHER favorite bands? Sonata Arctica, Elvenking, Dragonland, Turisas, and Skyclad. I could probably think of more, but those were the first off my head. What OTHER bands got you into the metal scene and around when? The first 'metal'...

    Did Anyone Catch This? Ari Koivunen 'Warrior Soul' Cover.

    First post for me in like a year and a half. Not sure if anyone in the band saw this, or if anyone else has seen it, but Ari Koivunen did a vocal cover of 'Warrior Soul' that I just recently came across. I'm not sure if this was at Hevikaraoke, but it seems like something he would do for that...

    Kiuas pronounciation.

    Haha, thanks :) I guess some of the American fans can jump on the bandwagon with me. I basically used this site every day for hours a day for a year or so: Finnish School | Learn Finnish - The fast, fun, and free way to learn the Finnish language online.

    Kiuas pronounciation.

    How strange how much things change in a year. . .I just finished a 30 page paper on the linguistics of the Finnish language for the final part of my linguistic major and got a solid A. I went from not knowing one word of Finnish at this time last year to becoming, as far as I can tell, literally...

    "The Discipline of Steel" lyrics?

    I've been trying to figure them out for a while now; here's all I've got so far. Hopefully someone can fill me in and we can eventually get it uploaded to darklyrics.com because I'd love to be able to sing along :grin: :grin: In the ancient times The power was handed to the chosen one To...

    Ask KIUAS

    I, too, would like to know the direct translation. I get the basic gist of it, but I don't know the exact meaning of some of the words (i.e. - seuranaan and sydämensä)

    Tabulature competition questions

    Vocal melodies might be a lot easier than these damn guitar parts. Fiske and I are hard at work trying to finish some stuff. . .I really want to work on "Across the Snows" if and when we ever get "Warrior Soul" finished.

    Favourite vocalist?

    My all time favorite vocalist is still Tobias Sammet (Avantasia, Edguy, etc). Giving some props to: Jari Mäenpää (Ensiferum/Wintersun) Damnagoras (Elvenking) Roy Khan (Kamelot) I'm suprised no one's mentioned Kai Hansen yet, but Hansi Kursch has been on quite a few lists.
