Today I bought two tickets to see Nightwish in Sao Paulo at the end of the year. Now, the torture has started again!
If it wouldn't bother you, I wanna share my past experiences...
I've seen Nightwish twice with the previous singer... the first one was truly wild! She was ill and the concert was cancelled and postponed to the following night. I don't live near to Sao Paulo (approx. 600km from here), so I had to sleep in the street along a bunch of fans! After a bloody summer rain on Sunday, the show began and rocked! The best moment of my life until that time. During 90 minutes singing all songs fully, I even forgot my own name (you can "hear" the first song here [link] while it's almost impossible due to screaming =P). It rewarded the three nights (including my whole tour) with no good sleeping, no bathing (and actually, no decent bathroom as well!), no food, no free water and the killer WAITING.
The second time was ten months later, at a festival, in Sao Paulo again. That night, they would open to Scorpions. I think, technically the concert was ok, but for me, it was weird. Maybe you would think I just realized that after the letter, but no. I went with my sweet sister (who is a great fan of the band as well) and at the end of the show, we both said "it was a crap..." Of course, it wasn't, but maybe "crappy"... anyway... I don't have really good memories of it, even though, to hear a thousands and thousands of people singing Kuolema Tekee Taiteilijan, which made Tarja almost shed tears, was nice. :)
Although, both experiences were distinct, I had the same gloomy feeling after each one of them. Maybe because I'd waited so much, and a long waiting usually creates a huge expectation.
I know that I will feel it again in November. Actually, 17th November is my birthday! (23 years old!!!) Just hope to come here and say that was a good trip after all.
I really wanna sing Wishmaster live! It's not my favorite song, and I know how it must bother the members nowadays, but... nah, it's so playful. =P The most important thing is: I am not such a God believer but I'm gonna pray to heaven that Anette will be healthy here! While the weather is not so delightful in the Spring.

At the university, the period is coming to the end, so I got a hundred exams next weeks. Because of that, I decided not to think in drawings for some days. I really need to concentrate more. I'll try to keep an eye here, though.
I wanna apologize everyone if I didn't answer all comments, favs and the watchers, I just don't have such a time anymore. Let me tell you that all words are really important for me! Please, if you wanna criticize something, give a hint, tell a story, go ahead! :) Maybe you see something that I am not.

I just wanna improve myself without changing my mind. I mean, I love doing very detailed portraits. That's all I long for. It's not a shame. There is a place for all kind of art these days. Otherwise, I've been somewhat lost in this path. I try not to think so much about it, as that advice days ago, but it blows my head sometimes. I think this temporary (and necessary) break could help me a bit. :)

Thank you everyone for being so kind with me!!!

awesome~! November is so far away, but, I'm sure it'll be worth the wait for you.

I've seen Nightwish with Anette twice, and they were absolutely amazing both times. Wishmaster was always a fun one because everyone goes nuts and sings along. I hope you have fun when November comes. ^-^

wow, it's so weird to see "spring in november" :slow:
as for the concerts, i was there the second time they came to Bucharest.. it was so awesome, since it was (if i recall well) the 5th concert before EOAE.. if only they came again to my country, i would love to see them with anette too :) From what i've seen on YouTube i dont like the way she is singing some of the old songs, but i prefer to be open-minded until i see her live...
oh and speaking of Nightwish ( :love: ) : last night i have made a nightwish journal CSS! :dance:

hey, i saw nightwish in march and apparently anette had the flu a few weeks earlier, so they didn't play ever dream =(

but they played wishmaster and everything else and they were awesome! she sounded great. here's a vid of wishmaster and the siren from the gig i was at:

have a good time!
Awww, you're so lucky! *_* Nightwish have a lot gigs already planned for Brazil, so you can see them twice or three times if you want!
I am Italian and I'm not as lucky as you are: Nightwish NEVER come here! (Last time it was March, 2nd 2008 and I had an amazing time then, but their previous italian gig was back in 2004 and I wasn't a Nightwishian yet, so I missed them ç_ç").
Well... may the countdown begin! I know how it feels =)

Nice that you wrote this, I realized I am taking a lot for granted these days. And I really miss that feeling of anticipation, the waiting, the expectations... hope you have a great time at the gig.
November is far, indeed, but I've known about this shows for a long, long time. Now it seems closer than never.

Wishmaster is overrated, but still it's like a hymn live. I'm looking for some songs from DPP as well, like "7 days to the wolves". Hoping they will play it here.

I study Philosophy at university. It's nice, while I realized I had a romantic view before to enter there.

You don't know how weird is to see Santa Claus wearing winter clothing when it's over 35ºC. =P I absolutely HATE hotness.
I like the most of the old songs sung by her lately. She has a style. On the other hand, illness seems to be disturbing her all the time... :O_o:

I liked your journal CSS. :) While I don't like to watch that concert... :hmm:
