Gig in Finland (Helsinki)

Torniojaws · January 17th, 2008, 10:33 AM

They're finally coming here for a full length concert!

March 20, 2008 at Nosturi in Helsinki. It'll be a long trip for me (800 km), but it sure will be worth it

Nightingale opens for them. Apparently they'll do a full length show too. The tickets are 18 euros and they start selling them next monday (January 21) at Lippupalvelu and Tiketti.

Here's for Finns: http://www.elmu.net/index.php3?sivu=...ang=fi&uid=146

A gig in Tampere the day before Helsinki on the 19th of March has been confirmed too. It will be at the Klubi (the small part of Pakkahuone), which has a capacity of about 350 people as far as I know (should be pretty intense!). Tickets are available from Tiketti for 17e.

About freaking time the guys make it over to Finland for club gigs - hopefully the Finnish fans will appreciate it by showing up on the two gigs so we will see them here in the future too! So you all do what I am planning to do too, show up on both of the gigs

I wonder if this will be recorded. I have a few soundboard / pro shot bootlegs from other bands who played at Nosturi.

Already got tickets here for the Tampere gig. So that makes at least three people so far.

It's been 6 years since the last time I saw Evergrey live so I'm very much looking forward to the event. Too bad Kainulainen can't even head out to his former hangout, Rusty Angel, after the gig since it's closed down.

Hmm... Wonder what the support is going to be 'cos it's not Nightingale?

Im heading for the Helsinki show! Me and a friend off mine are big fans off Nightingale. Never seen Evergrey live before so I hope its gonna be great! Btw does anyone know were Nosturi is located "looking" from the city center in Helsinki? *cheers*

Yeah, i am really considering taking the trip to helsinki since the prog power uk festival was cancelled... Damn shit! couldnt get a refund of the plane ticket from ryanair, so that was 250 euro right down the drain...PEEEEEERKELE! ryanair wankers!

Well, back to the thread, i have been looking for Nosturi on several maps, but wasnt able to find it... Whats the venue called? And is it far from helsinki centre?

vespiz · March 3rd, 2008, 02:24 PM

I bought the ticket to the Helsinki show just before they announced the show right here in Tampere...

Ah, well... Might aswell buy the ticket..

Hope this helps. The address for Nosturi is Telakkakatu 8. Sorry, couldn't find an international version of the map..

The venue is easy to reach from downtown Helsinki by taking the tram number 6 which goes maybe like every 10 minutes. About 200m walk from the tram stop to the venue. After the show it'll be too late to take a tram though but Helsinki centre/downtown is walkable distance anyway, about 1.5km from Nosturi.

Here's a google maps link showing the location: Nosturi location

Also some people might be curious about the schedule for the evening, here's the info:

20:00 Doors open
21:00 NIGHTINGALE (90 min)
23:00 EVERGREY (90 min)
02:00 Doors close
