Apocalyptica recently came to Tampere’s Tuomiokirkko for their ‘Matka Mieleen – Kaamoksen Sellot’ tour. It was an amazing experience and a visual delight.
Tenacious D was in town with their “Spicy Meatball tour”, and of course we had to go and see what Jack Black and Kyle Gass had in store for us on this tour when they played at Vorst Nationaal in Belgium. Support came for the one man musical centipede Steel Beans.
Tuska 2023 promises to be quite the exciting edition again with a great line-up with something for everyone, the biggest ever “Tuska Expo” in its history and plenty of other stuff to discover! If you’re planning to go, we listed some info in a nice little preview…

Sonata Arctica gave us a blast of a show on their gig in Hämeenlinna and Verkatehdas made it perfect by delivering excellent sound. The show was presented by TuskaLive.
After Volume 1 of ‘Acoustic Adventures’ came out in January via Atomic Fire Records, its follow up wasn’t far behind. Volume 2 focuses more on the faster tunes in Sonata Arctica’s catalogue, but is just as filled with tender emotions.

Fans of the Finnish band Sturm und Drang were in for a treat at Tampereen Ylioppilasteatteri, when Jeppe Welroos and André Linman played some of their best known songs in an intimate acoustic set. We really enjoyed finally being able to listen to these songs live again.
