Fugazi Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 A new live performance released, this time Elvenjig/Elvenpath from October 4 2018 in Bogota! Considering this is a show where reportedly Floor was not feeling so good (flu?), it's still a fine performance and the guys look like they're having great fun on stage! 👍 Were any other venues filmed on the Decades tour, besides Bogota and Buenos Aires? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondance Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I was at the Massey Hall show in Toronto for this tour on March 20, 2018. Ended up getting floor seats for that show, and even got myself another meet-and-greet. Unfortunately, two or three days ago, I ended up getting quite ill and was fighting against my cough which was popping up a lot. I was not going to let myself miss that show, being that the band played an important part in my life. I went to the venue quite very early in the morning, and got to watch all the roadies and crew do their work - even had a great conversation with a security guard. I did wait to see if any of the band members would arrive, but I only ended up seeing Ewo Pohjola arriving. He even gave me one of Emppu's guitar picks. I still have that pick to this day. 🙂 A few fans did come, but it was only short conversations I had with them. And at the side of the venue, I thought I met Emppu, though I was certain it was one of the technicians that looked like him. I did decide to come back later as I looked around the Eaton Centre. While I was waiting to meet the band in a line-up later, my left ear was starting to ring and it became gradually louder overtime while I was waiting. Eventually, the hearing in my left ear became muffled, and I became a bit panicked at the thought that I was losing my hearing. A couple of people that were lining up to meet the band noticed me panicking even when I was telling them and were beginning to worry about me. After going downstairs where the tables were set up for the band, we are all waiting for the band to come out. I bought a shirt there with the tour dates and tipped the merch people $50. While waiting, the left side of my ear was beginning to feel hot, and I had that feeling of being light-headed. People in line were asking if I was okay and if I needed to sit down, because they thought I was going to faint. I did sit at one of the tables and a lady in line was nice to save my spot in line. Kai was the first one that I said hello to. I asked him if he remembered me and he did from the London Ontario show in 2016. He signed my copies of Wintersun's debut and "Time I". I felt really awkward saying hello to Emppu, but I guess it was nervousness. Marko signed my copies of Delain's "April Rain" and "The Human Contradiction". When I said hello to Floor, I congratulated her for the kid she and Hannes had, and she thanked me. Both Troy and Tuomas signed two copies of Tuomas' solo album as I had one for a school teacher that I introduced the music of Nightwish to. Had the picture with them afterwards. Being that I was really ill, I decided to thank them and not shake any hands in fear that I would get one of the members ill in turn. Got my pre-signed poster, signed items and went off happy and satisfied like the last time I met them. They weren't aware that I was ill and I did not want to tell them as I didn't want them to worry about me. They went on to perform a phenomenal set, even if my left ear was muffled. Even got to move to the front of the stage from my seat and watch at the edge of the stage. In the end, I managed to get Marko's setlist as I was on his side of the stage. I did get people offering me $100 for the setlist I had, but it is now at home and hanging up on the wall in my room for memories' sake. And I eventually got my hearing back and got better afterwards. 😄 The setlist from the Toronto show: Quote End of All Hope Wish I Had an Angel 10th Man Down Come Cover Me Gethsemane Elan Sacrament of Wilderness Deep Silent Complete Dead Boy's Poem Elvenpath (with Elvenjig) I Want My Tears Back The Carpenter The Kinslayer Devil & the Deep Dark Ocean Nemo Slaying the Dreamer The Greatest Show on Earth (I - III) Ghost Love Score 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted October 29, 2021 Author Share Posted October 29, 2021 Thanks for sharing! You really do make the most out of your gigs, it's awesome! And as a bonus Nightwish even healed your ear condition! 😁 I would feel nervous speaking to Emppu too, given that he hardly ever speaks in public! I never met the band, but I wouldn't know what to tell them if I had a chance to do so. I mean, I would want to convey some of sense of gratitude for the way their music has energized me for a good number of years now, but I'd feel like repeating stuff they must have heard over and over. Ah well, with Covid now I'm not sure they even offer meet-and-greets anymore. 🤔 I couldn't catch them on the 2018 tour, and had I known that it would be Marko's last I might have tried harder... But it was back when I really had too many things going on professionally and basically didn't have any time left for anything else. I'll make sure not to repeat the same mistake this time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondance Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 It did! Though it took about two or three weeks for me to get better, and a bit of medicine for my excessive coughing and ear drops for my ear! Yeah, I didn't know it would be Marko's last tour with Nightwish either - but I am very happy that I did get to see him perform with them four times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondance Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Found myself in footage from the Toronto show at Massey Hall during "Gethsemane". I'm the one on the far left in front of the stage. You can see Tuomas give me a thumbs up at the end, being that I was doing an imitation of him playing keyboards, even though I know nothing about keyboards and piano lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
