Gutentag! My name is Timm. I've actually trolled these boards for a bit of time but never actually registered. I think it has something to do with my phobia of emoticons, or just laziness. I'm not quite sure.
Anyways, down to brass-tax. I'm 25 and live in the US. I've been a Turisas fan since 2004 when my mate John who lives in England sent me Battle Metal via the post. Ever since that fateful time Turisas has been one of my most favorite bands in the universe.
I've seen them three times now. Twice during Paegan Fest and then again just on December 11, 2008 for their headliner show here in Iowa City. Let me tell you that that show was probably the best concert experience I have ever had and is in the running for the best show that I've been to, except Warlord and Olli drank all of my "pocket vodka" as they called it(it was my flask). But, in their defense, I did offer it to them.
I've been into metal ever since I was a wee-lad. But, for the past decade or so I've stuck with the European viking/folk metal bands and scene. I just think that music is more original and has better quality than most of the cookie-monster influenced metal bands from America that play songs about worshipping their abusive step-fathers. But, I do love all kinds of metal and all kinds of music.
I'm looking forward to posting on here. You folks seem like good people. So, yeah. That's about all I have to say about that.
CHEERS!
