"Hello all!I just came back home to Helsinki a couple of hours ago from the Stratovarius Japan tour 2007. That was a lot of fun to play again with the guys and of course to see so many fans enjoying our live shows. I had a great time on the stage and so did the other guys.
I thank all the people who came to see the shows from the bottom of my heart: Domo arigato!
I am looking forward to go back to Japan with the next Strato-album or with my own band."
Rock the Metal!
Timo
