Nightwish

[Nudger]

I tell you who I really, really want to play at Bloodstock. Nightwish. I really do. I didn't manage to get to BS last year (this one will be my first ). But I have an awful lot of their stuff, and they have a new album coming out this year, which is going to pillage your town and rape your womenfolk.

Now I know this won't happen. Nightwish are very busy at the moment and they won't be able to make it.

But I can dream, eh?

 

[Joe5now]

Aye they won't be coming to Bloodstock, that's pretty much 100%, but because the new album is coming out they should be touring around summertime, so the chances of an English show are probably higher than they have ever been before

 

[Jonoleth]

It would never happen im afraid mate... and im pretty sure it wont happen next year cos you cant repeat headline bands, it wouldnt make for a very interesting festival, lower down the rosta its not so bad to repeat bands but headliners would be repetetive... Anyway, for me Nightwish were great but i cant say id want to see them again particularly, or at least i can think of other bands id rather see... Theyre kind of a one off band... I think a second time would loose its lustre cos it would be predictable... I could be wrong however...

 

[Catharsis]

Jonoleth says it all really. It's a nice thought, but really wouldn't be a good idea at all.

As for a UK date this year though, think September.

I'm probably in the minority but I think Nightwish are just slightly better then ok, no slightly better then that. I'll give them a good but nothing better then that.

I'd much rather see Power Symphony on the bill for a future Bloodstock.

I shall sever your wrist with my axe before you can reach for your cowardly weapon you young whippersnapper

Salutations of joy to you and yours Eagle, for being a fellow supporter of banning guns in favor of more epic methods of warfare.
Try breaking a catapult with an AK!

 

[Catharsis]

Seeing as the festival is Bloodstock, I feel it would only be right to stage a battle before the mainstage begins on the Saturday,

 

[Joe5now]

That's a point, and the Bloodstock bit suggests that the blood should be used as some kind of Oxo substitute. We will just have to see what we can do I guess. Eradicating a few of Derby's less desirable residents won't be bad I'm sure

 

[Jonoleth]

We could have a big vat of blood soup produced from the scally population of Derby...

Let Go The Dogs Of War !

 

[Joe5now]

Jono, I'm not going to stoop to the level of 'Miss K'

 

[MentaLee]

Miss K, as in this young lady??

 

[dragonmaiden]

Ergh!!! Oh p..lease! Gross!

 

[Jonoleth]

Ha.. that pictures ace...

 

[Joe5now]

Oh that's just fucking evil but funny as hell! Haha! did you make that yourself?

From my interview with Tuomas Holopainen of Nightwish, conducted on Sunday evening, 29th Feb at Phoenix Sound Studios, in Wembley.

Me: And moving on to touring this year. You mentioned in some interviews that you will be coming back here (to the UK).


Tuomas: Next fall we will. I think like September / October.



Me: After you have been to the States?



Tuomas: Yeah, yeah. That will be the first one. Definitely during this year, we are coming back, in the Astoria this time.

 

[Joe5now]

Does that mean only one gig, and in the shithole of Britian, London?
Gah!

 

[Catharsis]

and in the shithole of Britian, London?

Says the man from Wakefield.
