This band from Finland kicks A$$ majorly and I have to admit, Floor does a damn good job. I was in love with their first singer Tarja but I have room in my heart for two loves.

Emppu Vuorinen

Tuomas, the keyboardist, is the Maestro.

Marco, the bassist, has lasted through three female leads and sings damn good himself.

Here's him and Tarja doing The Siren.

I had to go find the lyrics of the Greatest Show... and wow, just wow. Definitely not for everybody, but... You've sent me on yet another quest for great music, and I thank you, my friend!

I don't believe in evolution but the music is good, it's a reflection of Tuomas, who is a very complicated person, and it gives me insight into where our European friends are in their heads.

Also, good as it is it isn't typical of Nightwish, NOTHING is typical of Nightwish.

Yep. Robert Fripp is my hero!

Not really but I like King Crimson...and he's been part of Satriani's G3 a time or two.

That says something.

Love Bridge of Sighs! Pat Travers was another jammer about that time.

Robert Fripp is one of my heroes. Metalhead/classic listener here. There's some good stuff outside of the mainstream...
