TIMO TOLKKI Autobiography Due October 1st
September 4, 2010, 14 years ago
TIMO TOLKKI (REVOLUTION RENAISSANCE, ex-STRATOVARIUS) will be releasing his first book on October 1st. In a recent update Tolkki commented on the contents of the autobiography:
"After a lot of thinking, feeling and getting some distance to my book, I have come to a conclusion that much of the book was written in anger and doesn't represent accurately how things are/were. I cannot release something like that.Specifically the parts of the book concerning some of the Stratovarius members were written in much anger and even vengeance. I do not want to generate negativity and hatred, after all this time I am thankful to the guys for some of the best years and moments in my life. And I believe Stratovarius deserves a really well written book, when the time is right.
I set out to write my own book with the help of a Finnish publisher Like, the same that published NIGHTWISH book. Somewhere along the way, I got lost. If my book will ever see the light of the day, it will concentrate more on my personal life and my childhood and of course, music. In these things I believe that my experiences can actually be helpful to some people. It has not been an easy ride."
