https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/floor-jansen-digital-live-release#/updates/all Hi everyone! We are making good progress on the live release! Audio has been mixed! Video is in progress and once I know more I will let you know. Once again, I want to use this opportunity to thank you all for being involved and making this possible. See you soon, hopefully on tour or online! de groeten, vänliga hälsningar, lämpimin terveisin and all the best, Floor

Yes, the Europe tour goes from 25 to only 10 shows, but I suppose it's better than postponing the whole thing for another 6 months. My understanding is that the cancelled shows will be rescheduled to a second leg of the tour.

This year for "Open Letter Day" let's remember Tarja but especially the Tarja-Crystals that were released shortly before she and the band split ways. These must be worth a fortune today! 😁 Have you got yours? Tarja-Crystals came to Tarja-Shop! Read the introduction: " If you ever heard the expression "carved in stone", imagine then an image of Tarja carved in crystal with the latest Laser technology. But not only that! The image of Tarja inside the crystal is in 3D, what means that you can turn the crystal from left to right and you'll see Tarja's face more real than ever before. You'll see from Tarja's right ear to her left ear, and the image has volume, same as a real person has. You will never have the chance to be so close to Tarja, unless you are really in front of her. All packaging of the initial units are autographed by Tarja. Have a piece of Tarja at home! " TARJA-SHOP

There are changes to the European tour schedule on the official NW website, though there's no formal announcement yet. Basically, every show in Germany, Ireland, Poland, Italy, Luxembourg, Switzerland, France and UK (except for the Wembley show) is out.

More Floor news, she is taking part in what is basically a German version of Beste Zangers, to be recorded and broadcast Spring 2022. No clue if it will be available online though, past seasons of this TV show aren't readily available anywhere.

John Henny is still reacting to NW on occasion, his latest is Storytime. Spoiler: he liked it. 😁 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bkqP9IOCWs

Yay for the weekly dose of quizzazz! 🤘

It would appear that they are confirming the European shows one by one, like they just did with Budapest. So it won't be all-or-nothing this time, they will play where they can and postpone whenever the rules make it impossible to play.

Just a heads up, tickets pre-sales for some of the North American venues have started already, and for most if not all venues public sales will start on Friday 15th. https://www.ticketmaster.ca/nightwish-tickets/artist/874704 https://www.livenation.com/artist/K8vZ917GdM0/nightwish-events For instance, Toronto tickets are already available to American Express cardholders. @Moondance

Lowell is seated, New York is standing, so there's some of both. In other news... It would appear that the Oslo show has been moved a few days to November 14th. Also:

This is your chance! Who knows when they tour North America again. Good for you to have show options so close to your place!

Details and discussion here.

It's official, more shows in North America in May 2022! *postponed shows May 4 Toronto ON May 6 Montréal QC May 7 Lowell MA* May 8 New York NY* May 10 Silver Spring MD May 12 Chicago IL May 13 St. Paul MN May 15 Denver CO May 18 San Francisco CA May 20 Los Angeles CA* May 21 Los Angeles CA*

This one premieres in a few minutes... These guys are fun, but are they going to listen through the whole song before commenting as they usually do? I know it's due to them being in separate locations and having to synchronize their video, but I find it's limiting for longer songs. Let's see how they deal with this one! Edit: Yeah as I thought they played through the whole thing before commenting. It's fine, but not my favourite way of doing reactions.

Let's see how this one goes! Thanks again for the quiz Ocean Soul! 🤘

The Skeleton Key, from the recent streaming show and now DVD.

Well well... So Floor is back singing for Arjen Anthony Lucassen's Star One, the new album will be released in December.

I don't know, it sounds like Auri to me! 😄

Joost van den Broek (producer, mixer, composer, arranger and long-time collaborator of Floor) is asked to comment on Floor's career.

A new release from the Darkwoods upcoming album. "Murktide and Midnight Sun" is more accessible than the previous single but why do I keep thinking I'm listening to Crewish? I think the vocals are the weak spot here, and they're kind of buried in the mix too.

It would appear that Marko will return to the stage this December for the Raskasta Joulua tour! https://www.lippu.fi/artist/raskasta-joulua/
