Ok let's do this!

Spoiler

1. Is there only one? I will guess Bye Bye Beautiful.

6. Easy, Showbox SODO Seattle USA on October 1st 2012.

13. Marko's alter ego in Nevski and the Prospects

14. Somewhere in the Finnish wilderness, Lapland is the only idea coming to mind (I know, it's not very specific)

15. Kinslayer (and not Kingslayer lol)

16. 9+8=17 (unless you consider All The Works... as a single song with multiple themes then 9+1=10)

17. The singer of Indica, Jonnsu (spelling?)

18. Delain (RIP, sort of)

19. Hartwall Arena Helsinki, October 21(?) 2005.

20. End Of An Era

21. Sleeping Sun

22. Pharao Sails To Orion and Devil and The Deep Dark Ocean

23. Ugh I don't remember! It was in South America but other than that I have no clue.

24. Wacken Open Air Germany, I'd say July 2013

25. Once?

Well this one was much harder! 🤘😈 Looking forward to the answers!

Oh? I wasn't aware of the connection! I suppose this happened around 2007-2008 when they toured together and collaborated?

Yeah I guess so! I think that Tuomas might have been the one who translated some of Indica's lyrics in English, too. I actually saw them on tour together, it might have been my first Nightwish show ever. 🤔
