Sonata Arctica
concert reviews and tour history

<3 <3 <3

I really liked the concert, all of the three Bands just rocked the hell out of this Place ^_^

But I had some difficulties understanding, what the vocal artists were singing :(
Unfortunately this place (Matrix in Bochum) was not 100% perfect from the acoustical experience - sometimes the sound was just a mess.

Furthermore this place was quite cramped - maybe the LJ was not best positioned in the middle of the room ;)

All in all I think what really matters was: The Bands just rocked like hell and I had really much fun, so here you go: 4/5 * :)

Twilight Force get better and better everytime I see them, Freedom Call were solid as always, eventhough I think they played a very wrong setlist. Sonata Arctica...well, I like them on CD but I was not able to enjoy them live. The singer was too....well sometimes I thought he had some cocaine in his Coke. Too fast, no time for storytelling. And the crowd was just....too many people. Couldn't raise my arm sometimes without hurting me or the people around me. From 1 to 10 I would say....average. 5/10.

The scheme above...when I use this, it would be "nothing special".

The best Sonata Arctica show I've ever been to! The crowd went completely nuts (which they did a lot less in Eindhoven)! The energy was great, the music was and the setlist was great!

An amazing experience!!! Sonata must comeback to Bolivia!!!

Perfeito!! Sonata é massa mas roubaram meu guarda chuva!

It was not played any music album Winterheart's Guild (I wanted to Victoria secrects), and no album The Days Of Grays (I wanted to Juliet)
The albums Reckoning Night and Unia were represented by only one each track, Do not Say a Word and Paid in Full.
The Stones Grow Her Name and Silence appeared in only two tracks each, the I Have A Right and Losing My Insanity (which, NO it is not a cover, for the Kakko composed this song along with Ari and wrote the letter and let him use it in the album.)
and the Black Sheep and San Sebastian.

So what prevailed in the show was really the music of the New Album and the Ecliptica, after all this was the proposal of the Tour, Advertise Pariah's and the "revisited" ecliptic,

Songs by Album:

Ecliptic = 6
Silence = 2
Winterheart's Guild = 0
Reckoning Night = 1
Unia = 1
The Days Of Grays = 0
Stones Grow Her Name = 2
Pariah's Child = 5

remarkable!
