    Found a source regarding the show was recorded, and is for a future live release:

    https://bravewords.com/news/nightwish-perform-the-phantom-of-the-opera-for-the-first-time-in-17-years-amsterdam-show-filmed-for-future-dvd-release-video

    Hoping that they will perform "Pan" on the second night in Amsterdam.

    Henk was "out of sync" with the band 🙄

    During the performance it caught my attention that Henk communicated with sound engineers by pointing to his in-ears. So I assume there was a hearing issue causing the "out of sync" singing of Henk.

    Due to this I think the first night recording for TPOTO can't be used for a release 🤔

    Tonight a new change 😁

    Ok major happening in Amsterdam -- I'm not saying a surprise because it was half-expected, but they could just as well not have done it. Anyway, 'The Phantom Of The Opera' was played by Nightwish for the first time since the fateful End Of An Era show in 2005... AND it would appear there was a recording crew at the gig! 😲 It doesn't mean that the whole thing will be released on DVD/BR -- I wish it will, though! -- but there's a good chance the 'new' Phantom will be a YouTube staple soon!

    Anyway, here's the setlist -- and 7 Days To The Wolves also made a return tonight! Funny my hands are shaking, going to YouTube right now to watch what's already up!

    I don't understand a word of it, but there's a Floor feature on Swedish TV:

    https://www.svtplay.se/video/Kqybzv4/sverige/floor-jansen-bor-langt-fran-skrikande-fans

    It's another visit at Floor's place, feeding horses, walking dogs, unwrapping a Human Nature sales award (Platinum something, not sure what country?), probably some discussion about ying-yang wolf-dog things, but what caught my attention is the quality of the photography.

    Nice find, Thanks. I understand a small word here and there but that's all 🤔 With this I think your assumptions on the topics are correct 😁 indeed nice footage 👍

    Floor on Dutch TV again tonight... sporting a new haircut!

    Also, she mentioned that the band on stage with her tonight will be the band she will tour with next year -- so no more Marcel Fisser band? I couldn't tell who any of the musicians are. There was no backing vocalist either.

    A new interview from Dutch media. Of note, Floor's next single is about to be released on September 9th. 👀

    Floor Jansen sings the national anthem: 'Enjoy everything!'

    Tue Aug 30
     
    Just before the start of the Dutch Grand Prix Zandvoort, the internationally acclaimed singer Floor Jansen provides a special interpretation of the Wilhelmus for the many fans. The popular singer is musically accompanied by the Royal Air Force Orchestra. Reason enough to put Floor to the test.
     
    Can you tell us what it was like to be asked to sing the National Anthem during the Dutch GP in Zandvoort?
    I can't really describe it. My management was called by the organization and then you hear that you can sing the Wilhelmus during one of the largest events in the Netherlands. What a great honor to do this. However, it only became apparent to me a few days later, when I started to delve further into Formula 1 and the previous edition, how massive and successful it is, in the Netherlands but also worldwide.
     
    Do you have a thing for the National Anthem?
    I don't think I am more or less fond of the National Anthem than any other Dutch person. You grow up with it and see it as something that brings our people together in many beautiful moments. Now to put my own spin on it is a fantastic opportunity and I hope I can convey the energy and emotion of Formula 1 in my edition.
     
    You sing it accompanied by a large orchestra, have you performed this way before?
    Yes, of course! A few years ago I sang a Final Fantasy Soundtrack, “Sound of the Wind” with the Metropole Orkest. And earlier this year I sang my own single “Storm” with the same orchestra that will play the Wilhelmus in Formula 1, the Royal Air Force Orchestra. This was during the TV show “Ode to our Veterans” for Veterans Day 2022.
     
    You've said before that you don't follow F1 closely, do you now?
    Due to my busy schedule I am unable to keep up with everything. However, I have mainly become interested in the drivers. How they train, work and do everything they can to be the best. That, together with the well-oiled machines of the teams, is extremely fascinating to keep an eye on.
     
    You don't live in the Netherlands, are you going to the Netherlands for 1 day for this event or are you staying for a while?
    I've been in the Netherlands for a few days already working on my first solo album which will be released in March 2023 and it's also nice to spend time with my family. September 9th my 3rd single will be released.
     
    The Dutch only really got to know you musically after 2019, the broadcast with Henk Poort. Since then it has gained momentum, do you notice that much?
    Yes and no. Because I've been a singer for twenty years and tour all over the world with Nightwish, which is one of the biggest metal bands in the world, I'm pretty used to attention. However, I didn't necessarily get this attention in the Netherlands until Best Singers. I like that I can now share my music with even more people and feel the support of the Dutch.
     
    Would you like to say something to the F1 fans?
    Enjoy the show! In the end, it's not about me, it's about the race. I hope it will be very exciting. And for those who also like to listen to me: My first album will be released in 2023 and April 2023 I can be found on many stages in the Netherlands.
     
    Who do you think will win the race?
    Max Verstappen. Would be a lot of fun!

    Dutch media explodes for the upcoming Dutch Anthem Floor is gonna sing at the F1 race at Zandvoort:

    As of today, Jukka Koskinen has become an official member and the permanent bassist of Nightwish. He is known for being in Wintersun, alongside Kai Hahto notably. We should expect that he will be play a huge role in the upcoming new Nightwish album's recording next year.

    Other than that, a huge welcome to Jukka Koskinen to the Nightwish family! I met him back in May this year, and I had a great feeling about him being in the band.

    Random thoughts while the band is playing:

    • Floor's German is still fresh in her mind!
    • The camera work is pretty good, and the sound is amazing for a live, raw mix.
    • I don't know if we'll get another DVD from this tour, but if not I'll be happy with this show!
    • Band seems pretty relaxed and in a good frame of mind.
