    You Never Know..

    ..where Nightwish will pop up. I was selecting tracks for my set this week, and I come across this a track by Alex BassJunkie & Riche called "Hard Porn Steven Seagull". Weird name, but what's in a name these days? Giving it a listen, i find it's basically a dutch/uk hardcore remix of Wishmaster...

    Fall 2012 North American tour

    It's like I said in a previous post, I'm sure Marco was dedicating it to all Oceansouls IN America rather than the Oceansouls OF America. So saying an "obscure cult" was meant to be a joke, as everyone in the audience belonged to that "cult". Though I also said it makes no difference as the...

    Portland Nightwish show review

    I had caught After Forever in October of 2007 here in New York as well. When AF had to call it quits, I was glad I had gotten to see them once before hand (older OSAers will know what I means when I say this was at the tail end of TZT week. Zellie and I went). So yeah, Floor has played venues in...

    Fall 2012 North American tour

    Heh that makes me believe Marco was referencing all Oceansouls in America (meaning he aimed it everyone in the audience) rather than the fanclub itself. But at the end of the day, it's all the same :)

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    Hey you know, if Nightwish keeps on going this way, soon enough we might see a group formed out of all the former singers. Sort of like an ex-wives club. *tease*

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    You know that I was referring to people speaking about Tarja, right? Of course Amanda was already a well known quantity with the Epica camp. Her choice was very logical. As I said earlier, I can easily see Floor not lasting for the duration because of much of what you've said (she has a...

    Heh the internet wasn't just text in 1997. Hell, Amazon went online in 95. I've been using the net since 92 or 93 (back when it WAS text. Remember Gopher?). As for Nightwish, lets just say there were ways to get your hands on music back then which didn't involve itunes or youtube. I was...

    I'm sure Floor wasn't just a random pick. You have to figure he already considered several people. It just wasn't the open call that existed during the last vocalist search.

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    Ok it's time to settle down now and dismount the high horse. You are making broad judgements on things that you know nothing about (such as when people started listening) and talking crap about someone who has done more for the band than you ever will. Show some basic respect. Besides, you are...

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY C...............!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Happy Birthday! What a present you've been given this year :)

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    I know you aren't a troll. :) It was just a way of expressing my disbelief with your comment. As for Anette, the reason she found her groove on Imaginaerum is because the songs were not only written with her in mind, but she and the band were finally familiar with one another. Anyway, comparing...

    I'm not an Epica fan

    I actually wasn't too impressed with Requiem for the Indifferent (their 2012 album), but Design Your Universe (2009) was a stellar milestone of the genre. There are so many excellent songs on that album, but zoom in on the title track alone for one of the most amazing works you'll find...

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    If you weren't a long time poster at the OSA, I'd swear that comment was meant to troll. People in my house like Idol, so I'm unfortunately passingly familiar with the last few seasons. There were some fair voices in that lot of misguided, soon to be disillusioned fame & fortune hounds, but in...

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    The amazing part is how she doesn't miss an opportunity to make herself look like a poor victim who had to go through such horrors. It's long since over with and done, yet it seems that she is still trying to claim some sort of moral high ground. As for those who have been speaking of her...

    Portland Nightwish show review

    Lucky bastards :p They just need to give us some surprise add on dates here on the east coast with Floor. Ayup. That's what they need. New York City with Floor. (Hey, not possible, but I can dream, right?)

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    Something else that needs to be considered: Songs are written with a particular vocalist in mind. I wouldn't expect Floor to sing the Anette songs as well as we ever expected Anette to sing the Tarja songs (and in fact, many were slightly re-arranged on tour to fit Anette's voice). Whoever the...

    Anette Parting with Nightwish

    Perhaps it goes to deeper sentiments. Perhaps there is still a hidden general animosity towards Anette, although completely not her fault, for replacing Tarja. Perhaps there is a 'been there, done that' sentiment which makes this seem like old news and not worth all the hoopla yet again. Just...

    ..and medical knowledge understands that most basic illness (such as a cold or what have you), is largely mental. That is to say, something that can easily be brought on by stress or unhappiness. Anyway, this is really all guesswork at this point.

    Wedding Pictures and a Video of me singing at our Heavy Metal after party.

    A belated congrats :] Awesome about the theme. Seems like much more fun than the traditional alternative. It reminds me of something my girlfriend wants to do at some point. She wants to have a themed handfasting ceremony at a future Beltane (she loosely considers herself pagan). She was running...
