Absolutely! The thing with Tarja-era Nightwish, is that the U.S. was probably the only country on earth who had no bias for/against her since they were practically unknown here, but for the fans here who did know of them, it left a lot of bad feelings; especially when 2 tours were cancelled and then finding out the reason for that was because Tarja thought that playing the smaller clubs here was beneath her. So there are fans who, to this day, still hold a grudge against her for that. Personally, I have gotten over it in many respects, but my boycott still stands; she hasn't gotten a dime out of me since '05!
Anyway, to keep back to topic...we here at the OSA have been saying for quite some time that we have a special announcement for everyone, and due to having to work with other people on this particular project, we have had to keep tight-lipped on everything and not say too much. So we have been just as anxious to share the news with you as you have been to hear it! The good news is that next week we will finally be able to announce our big news! Trust us, it will have been worth the wait, and it is the biggest news that has ever happened here at OSA. The final details will be worked out sometime this week, so we are looking at getting the green light to release this news early next week. So hang in there!
On a personal note, this is probably a good thing that we have had to push the announcement to next week, considering that this week will be the Imaginaerum premiere on Radiorock, and the release of the album in Finland, so there will be a lot of activity in the Nightwish community and our news might get lost in the shuffle. We have waited a long time and worked very hard to bring this to you, so we want to make everyone take notice!
