15 Aug 2003 - Roope Latvala
When Alexander left the we were left in a difficult situation. How to keep on going...
We have so many shows already booked and fans waiting to see us in new places.
Even though there are a lot of guitarists in this world, we have to make sure that the whole crew, touring party will get along with each other, otherwise touring will turn out to be really hard and uncomfortable.

We felt really relieved when Roope Latvala said:" Yes, I could help you guys out in this..."

After many problems, meetings and moments of frustration we now have a good friend and a skillful guitarist in this crew to make it til the end of this year and this tour.

Roope's debut will take place in Moscow on saturday, and everything seems to be going very well, thanks to hard work from everyone of us,but especially to the effort that Roope has put in this!!!

We are looking forward to get on the road with this new crew, see you in your town!!!

holy shit...I thought it will be Roope just for now...
I wish all the best to them on tour

COBabe · August 15th, 2003, 06:35 AM

i´m really curious to see roope and the rest of the band next week...but it´s still hard to realize that there´s no ale

but, life goes on...

bizarre · August 15th, 2003, 06:58 AM

They couldn't have had a better guy to replace ale. Regardless of the fact that no one will ever be as good as ale in this band. But I'm still sooo
glad.

This thread already EXIST !

stefan86 · August 15th, 2003, 08:16 AM

i knew roope would do eet

_Zsuzsa_ · August 15th, 2003, 08:43 AM

Nice. never imagined that it'll be Roope in the end...

gryphon · August 15th, 2003, 08:55 AM

I told you! You didn't believe me about the Nevermore/Dimmu Borgir tour, and some of you didn't believe me regarding Roope. I need some trust here

-Gavin- · August 15th, 2003, 08:59 AM

i believed you man!

I even used your name as my source when i told everyone...Dunno if that was based on trust, but rather as a fall back cause if i was wrong i wouldn't get my ass kicked for spreading rumours....but...still.... You rule

Cebbe · August 15th, 2003, 10:32 AM

Roope can't be as good as ale in COB but i think that Roope is the best person tp replase ale to play guitar in COB

-Gavin- · August 15th, 2003, 11:28 AM

Imagine this...

Allu, Roope and Janne all soloing in the same song...

Man it'd be to awesome to think about.

He cant replace ale though.

EagleFlyFree · August 15th, 2003, 03:05 PM

HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!! cob will be unfuckingbeatable now!!!!

let's cross our fingers that he stays in the band!!!!

-Gavin- · August 15th, 2003, 03:15 PM

that is true.

With Roope, Allu, Henkka, Janne and jaska...

They will be untochable...

And dont think i mean any disrespect to ale, i fucking love the guy but we've got to look forward, and if CoB is to make the most of what happened, then roope is the best person for this.

Sure, CoB need another rhythm player and not a shredder, but roope and Laiho (in Sinergy) have proved to be a fucking great guitar duo and both are capable of outstanding rhythm playing, so if allu is willing to share the spotlight, CoB will be beyond anything ever known.

Hail Aku! I hope you return!

Maili Björklund · August 15th, 2003, 03:41 PM

Allu sharing the spotlight... How could anyone ever have imagined this happening

-Gavin- · August 15th, 2003, 04:49 PM

He has to a bit with janne.

Musical ability wise... They are matched. Just different instruments.

Bullshit Roope will have Alexi's ass anyday, yes was his teacher! Can't imagine Alexi giving up too much space for Roope to kick his ass on the next coming album or stage. Just think, SINERGY - the pale voice of KIM! Ahh we are talking all stars now! My money is that Roope will not be a permenant member, he would steal the shine.................. from Alexi and after all isn't this his (and Jannes) show? No I'm thinking some long haired freak that rocks good, but soley on rythm guitar, after all what would KIM think?

Thats it, basically, roope would do nothing but good for the band.

Welly · August 15th, 2003, 10:59 PM

this could be one of the greatest move in the band.. i mean, I RESPECT ALE I FUCKING LOVE HIS PLAYING!!! roope isen't taking the ale's place, he's not Ale, it will be different... but it could be reallllly fucking cool...

i still think Henkka's bass talent should be more used... we never hear of him...

So is he the new official guitarist or just a helper on tour?

†_Aragorth_† · August 17th, 2003, 06:03 PM
