We have a Finnish mini-tour lined up for November. Here is what we know today Nov 11: Turku Nov 12: TBD Nov 13: Helsinki, Dante's at the Helvation festival Hope to see you there!
Hey all! Some more exact info of the Helsinki show... As Andreas mentioned event is called "Helvation Festival", it is held at Dante's Highlight in the very centrum of Helsinki and the billing is as follows: Friday 12.11. PORTRAIT (Swe) ENFORCER (Swe) MALICIOUS DEATH (Fin) SOLITAIRE (Fin) SPEEDTRAP (Fin) Saturday 13.11. NIGHTINGALE (Swe) SEVENTH WONDER (Swe) MERGING FLARE (Fin) BATTLE BEAST (Fin) http://www.myspace.com/portraitmetal http://www.myspace.com/enforcerswe http://www.myspace.com/maliciousdeaththrush http://www.myspace.com/finnishspeedattack http://www.myspace.com/speedtrapmetal http://www.myspace.com/nightingalesweden http://www.myspace.com/officialsw http://www.myspace.com/mergingflare http://www.myspace.com/battlebeastband Ticket prices will be advanced 25 Euros/2-days, 15 Euros/day and Door: 18 Euros/day. They are available via Tiketti (easy to purchase in pdf): http://www.tiketti.fi/event/8362 Since especially Nightingale plays live rarely I know that this may atract people to come abroad too. ...and imo the whole line up is damned great, just check the bands if you don't know them If somebody wants any hints please do ask! Either me or Andreas will surely post here more information when it is available. I don't know that much about the other Finnish shows myself, but I am sure that info of those will be available in near future too. You must be at least 18 years old to participate. Cheers and CU in Helsinki, Vesa
SW AND Nightingale!? Wow. I'm not too familiar with the rest, but those two alone would make a concert for me.
Wow, that's very tempting. I've always wanted to see Nightingale live and missed them the one time they were in Holland (and I knew about Dan). And then there's obviously Seventh Wonder as well! I think I'll be looking into ticket prices to Helsinki after I'm done with my summer stuff
Great If you (or anybody else abroad) choose to come I am more than happy to give pointers how to save with accomodation etc. Well, basically tickets are quite cheap (at least in Finnish standards) and with accommodation I can help...but the plain tickets between Holland and Finland can be quite awfully priced if not ordered way ahead. Well, if this can also be counted as a holiday then it might be ok - At least most of my holiday trips just "happen" to be timed according to gigs
One problem might be a lack of funds due to Progpower Europe being just a month before these dates, though But any money saving tips are always welcome
HAaaa.... Good to have you guys back to Finland. This time we'll go and get those steaks we talked about doing after helsinki's show last year! -Teemu
Oddly enough not yet The real winter kicks in about at December/January. November is still quite autumnal(inside joke) in Southern Finland, rain is possible. I think we did last Enforcer´s Finnish mini-tour about exactly same time last year and I remember that weather was pretty ok.
Hey Seventh Wonder! Could we hear some official live recordings from you guys? Cause you absolutely rock live, but we've got nothing official yet!
Wow! and together with the Nightingale Sounds really good! Should maybe plan a trip to Helsinki! but when it will be a tour in Sweden? I can not wait now ... The memory of "Slottsskogen ..." is about to disappear from my memory!
Nightingale is planning to do a special jump to the Dan´s "brutal past"! This will happen (if it does, hopefully!) in a form of a medley. As some might know they have prevously attended to do some clean vocal Edge of Sanity tracks such as Black Tears and Losing Myself but this has not happened before. I personally am most excited about this! We are hoping to publish the schedule soon.
Updated with location of the second gig! If I remember correctly the Jyväskylä-gig was by far the warmest place we've ever played. It is going to be interesting to see if it is the same way (assuming it's the same venue)
Preliminary schedule (I recommend to check this later on for possible minor changes, but at this point this should be it) for Helvation Festival (Seventh Wonder's Saturday show in Finland): Friday: 20.50 Speedtrap 21.40 Solitaire 22.40 Malicious Death 23.40 Enforcer 00.50 Portrait Saturday: 20.45 Battle Beast 21.45 Merging Flare 22.50 Seventh Wonder 00.15 Nightingale So on both nights the show should be over before 2am. On Saturday 150 first customers will receive for free Guardians of Mankind/Merging Flare-split single: http://www.metal-archives.com/release.php?id=186315&PHPSESSID=98e5e87874accbfe9a71401bc075e8aa
Where exactly in Turku is the gig? And what kind of age restrictions are there? I happen to be a minor, and would love to see you guys live.
Hi. I am not resposible for these two other shows in Finland but if I understood correctly the Turku gig will be in Klubi. And I am almost sure that it is on the small side so no chance at all I am afraid. Sorry.
