Due to a sickness of vocalist Tobias Sammet, EDGUY have to cancel their show in Oberhausen on the 27.01.
(via nuclearblast.de)
Glad I didn't get a ticket...
Hope our favourite child prodigy will get better soon ;_;

I bet you were thinking I wasn't gonna do this one, huh?
( Click here for teh hotness ^^ )
You might think I forgot someone. And in a way I did.
Well, in the beginning, I wanted to leave him out of this completely but then decided to include him as a sort of bonzus.
For some reason, I feel like he doesn't quite fit in here, yasee?
( Finally - honorary mention (16/15)... )
There you go. That was MY weird little list.
Probably the most chaotic one yet. But who cares? ;)

Alright, in about an hour, I'll be on my way to spend a wodnerful night at the Dortmund airport (=_=).
Yesterday, I got my special edition of "Tinnitus Sanctus" in the mail. Yep, a day early ^^
I'll need to listen to it a couple more times before I'll really be able to judge it, though. Pics and review coming up next week.
Speaking of which, see you all on Monday! Gotta double- and triple-check my stuff now. Byee *waves*

Thanks, everyone, for your replies to my entry from this morning. The stomach ache eventually disappeared, only to be replaced by teh migraine of doom. But I battled that with a pill, so all's well now.
Also,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mirmingi, I think you might have a point about the excitement thingy. You're not the only person who had that sort of suspicion *lol*
Anyway. Oh, look what has leaked:
Eekness.
No, I'm NOT listening to it... Okay, I did check out "Ministy of saints" because I know it already... But that's all *buries the rest in the depth of her HDD until her real copy arrives*

WE CAN HAS IT!
"Sex fire religion" sounds like a Eurobeat song. I mean, SRSLY O_o "Thorn without a rose" just screams "I'm a tragic ballad!". And the last one? Simply hilarious ^^
Anyway. What a fun assortment of crazy titles. Can't wait to hear the actual songs!
Speaking of which... I just noticed that I probably won't get the CD before I leave for Munich.
Thing is, I want the Nuclear Blast special mailorder version (Yeah, Jessy and limited edition, it's a neverending love story *lol*) and we all know their shipping habits =_= So, I won't be able to listen to it before November 17, maybe 18, depending on how tired I'll be.
Also: Never stop visiting ICHC.com for several days and then look at all the LOLcats you missed at once. My sides are hurting from ROFLing XDDD
Ministry of saints
Sex fire religion
The pride of creation
Nine lives
Wake up dreaming black
Dragonfly
Thorn without a rose
929
Speedhoven
Dead or Rock
Aren't you a little pervert too

... I just have to mention this.
"Tinnitus Sanctus" cover.
Mmh. Interesting. To me, this looks like they've got some sort of "Back to the roots" thingy going on, especially after the "Rocket Ride" comic style. And remembering what Tobi said about the songs so far, that might not be totally wrong.

Kai just came up with the most amazing translation of "Tinnitus Sanctus":

BTW, I don't think there's ever been anything more typical than this album title. Tobi, Tobi... ;)

The pic is from the current Nuclear Blast magazine. I remember opening the page and scaring
yamnasagi to death by squeeing at the sight ^_^;;;And I still like
Anywho, as of today, our favourite child prodigy is three decades old. And hasn't changed at all. Which is damn good. Tobi, you rock. Never stop. Never, you hear me?
Finally...

A new interview with Tobi has just been added to the Avantasia web site.
I still can't quite find the right words to express how happy his words made me once again.
All that gushing and raving about how beautiful the new material is, and how he doesn't care if people think releasing two EPs is crazy as long as people get great stuff for their money... that's our Tobi alright, and I'm ready to punch anyone in the face who says he's changing just because he's wearing black eyeliner on the promo pics.
... and now over-emotional lil' me's gotta go blow her nose ^_^;;;

Just now, I was looking at his website's new starting page. Well, it took me a moment to realize it's indeed him.
And I hear a lot of people are getting really concerned about the changer of look'n'all.
My two cents:
1. People change. That's okay. You can't expect someone to keep a certain look just to avoid possible complainers. And as we know, Tobi has always been one to do controversial stuff (McDonald's chart show appearances, anyone? Hasn't hurt them yet, AFAIK...)
2. Even if Tobi changes his look, who would actually believe that his character would be affected in any way? I don't mind a darker theme/style, as long as he stays the smart and incredibly funny guy he is. Which he will. Goddammit, this is Tobias Sammet, not some casting boy band singer who twists and turns according to the general public's taste *fumes*
Oh my, this feels like "A Defense of Edguy" all over again. Maybe someone remembers that... or not. Too long ago, I s'ppose. Gotta dig it out again, 'twas one of my better pieces of non-fiction ;)
And... I can't help it... he looks damn hot in that pic on there. Want more soon, pklskthx.. My good ol' crush on him is in full blaze once again.
*points at pic and shouts* I. Want. That. Now!!!
October 19, 2007.
Also, Wacken 2008.
Seems a bunch of Rockfic-ers will drag themselves over there next year, including my sorry-ass self.
We should totally get together, what say you? =)
Finally, something I found at the Wacken site. I haven't seen it anywhere else and it wasn't on the English version of the page. Here goes:
Apparently, Tobi was supposed to give a press conference at Wacken on Saturday. However, in the morning, he had to be rushed to hospital to get his appendix removed.
Awww, poor baby. I hope he gets well soon ;_;

Did anyone notice there's a new Avantasia-related interview up on ?
I didn't.
*needs an icon of Tobi with short hair*

First of all, Happy New Year everyone!!
So, what did we do so far?
Uh... nothing of significance, I'm afraid ^_^;;;
We watched a handful of movies, went shopping a couple of times, did hours of cat cuddling (<3) and worked on our Warhammer armies we got/bought for Xmas. Pics of various things later.
Also, Kan-chan is now running on an amazing 80 GB HDD. I was completely taken aback when I noticed that the laptop is suddenly completely SILENT. Before getting the new HDD, he always made a distinct humming kind of sound. We suspected that was due to some fan but turns out, it was the old HDD *gasp* Actually, we took it apart and found a small metal part that was flying around loose INSIDE the hard disk O______O
(Pics ofd that "operation" will be presented here on a later date as well)
Anywho, Kan-chan is now blazingly fast, silent as hell and seems to use up even less eletricity than before.
Apart from that, yours truly is about to buy one of these things that have four wheels and eat petrol. Yeehaa, an ador(k)able lil' motorized cutie for moi =)
Unfortnateloy, I won't be able to say anything interesting about that until I'm home at the end of the week. Still, thought you'd like to know.
Tobi is doing anohter Avantasia? OMFGguuuhhhhhh... *brain explodes*
Right. That was my little update. See you ^_^

Your results:
You are Spider-Man
Click here to take the "Which Superhero am I?" quiz...
Okay, the thing about Tobi and his hair.
Taken from his official site:
Now I'm not translating this word by word, but he's basically saying that he was sick of carrying a ton of hair care products around and his only reward being Sascha Paeths four year old son asking him whether he'd rather be a woman.
Now... Tobi, I hope you realize you're not making sense here. My younger brother puts up with his mum teasing him and calling him a girl every day cuz he has long hair. And you, the guy wearing pink t-shirts and crazy animal prints backs away because of THIS?
Maybe this is just another cover story for the fact that he IS losing his hair or someone else was using his name. Either way, I'm a bit disappointed right now =_=

QUESTION:
Hey Tobi! Sach ma warum habt ihr euch die schönen langen Haare abschneiden lassen ???
Wo ist die Metaller-Mähne geblieben ;) LG Kate
TOBIAS:
Weil ich die Nase voll davon hatte, auf Tour - wie eine Frau - sieben Kilo Haarpflegeprodukte mitzuschleppen, in meiner Wohnung überall lange Haare zumliegen zu haben, mich jeden Tag eine halbe Stunde zu fönen und zur Belohnung am Ende von Sascha Paeths vierjährigem Sohn gefragt zu werden, ob ich nicht viel lieber eine Frau wäre!!! Außerdem: Öfter mal was neues!

... but I just had to post this!
A very short (but very interesting) excerpt from Tobi's report about the Metalway festival (Edguy and Helloween somehow went there together):
Well, what a surprise *snort*
PS He also talked about his hair, but that part is in German only. Remind me to translate it tomorrow, when I'm not dead tired, okie? ;)

Okay, final one for today, promise. But I thought this was important.
They added some pics to Tobi's newly launched site. Though if you're not watching the corresponding thread in Edguy's official forum, you will most likely not know about this.
Luckily, I happened to pass by there today and so I present to you...
( Tobi!!!! )

Yeah, well... Saying "it was worth the wait and half a decade of no update at all" would not exactly be true.
Half of the sections are still not done and the whole thing looks kinda boring.
My final hope for the site is the "Ask Tobias" section. Maybe that will be more fun than the stuff that's on there right now?
Wow, foobar seems to be able to read minds. Out of 900-something songs, it picked the one I really wanted to hear right now O_o
Tho, right now, even the worst song in the world couldn't even SCRATCH my good mood =)
