    Orlkin the Fool, jester to the Hanoverian court of the Elector Falbius, played two metal chords on the mandolin at court in Heisburg on 23 December 1523. Unfortunately, he was subsequently burned at the stake as a witch, so full records are understandably lacking. It is said that he went out with two fingers upraised.

      This is from Wiki:-
      The Irish bouzouki, with four courses, a flatter back, and differently tuned from the Greek bouzouki, is a more recent development, stemming from the introduction of the Greek instrument into Irish music by Johnny Moynihan around 1965. It was subsequently adopted by Andy Irvine, Dónal Lunny, and many others,[12] although some Irish musicians, such as the late Alec Finn, continued to use the Greek-style instruments.
      The bouzouki is originally a Greek instrument ( which you may have seen Alex 😉)

    Emppu is very underrated and a lot of that is because in a metal band you usually would have a rhythm guitar and a lead whereas for all Nightwish's layers and wall of sound there is essentially only 1 guitarist who is playing both lead and rhythm hence he can't mess around as much :D

      Emppu often seems like he's willing to just play for the song, a role player if you will, which causes him to get overlooked easily. In truth, he's got loads of skill and plays a large part in the wall of sound. All members are insanely talented but he just doesn't get the opportunities to shine on a casual viewing.

    Shudder Before The Beautiful - Wembley (show opener)
    Dark Chest of Wonders - Wacken (show opener)
    Sahara - Tampa (different to anything else)
    Greatest Show on Earth - Tampere (avoid the 17 minute video which omits the ending, let it run to the end of the credits)
    Some prefer the Wembley version of GSOE. There is no right or wrong, they are just different.

    This song has a special place in my heart !!! Not just because wolf is Estonian national animal but the windmill battle between Tuomas and Floor ....holy mother of Odin !!!
    The title is taken from a King's novel called “Wolves of the Calla”. But the conception of the book has nothing to do with the text behind the song, it is far more inspired by the film "Dead Poets' Society". The main idea is - one must live his life the best he can, to strive for his aims, because the wolves are always 7 days behind you and they will catch you if your life is not of full value... and then you will be only dead meat.
    That's what Tuomas said in one interview.

      is basicaly adapted from the Greek Bouzouki though because Greek one is used mostly for lead melody and is mostly played ina siting position and takes some geting used to for being played while standing because of the pear shaped soundbox so the Irish version which is mostly used for arpegio style acompaniaments and played mostly standing was adapted by shaping the soundbox more flat on the back therefore had to enlarge it to maintain the air bulk equivalense

In a way they inspired me to revive my interest in all kinds of rock/popmusic again. And.........honestly...... I'am just a 'jealous guy'.........cause you still have to do at least 10 or more songs with the same and even more surprising energie and musicality. The greatest show on earth, Tampere....I say it is nuts. Because even if you don't like it, you'll have to admire it.

    When you do The Greatest Show On Earth and The Poet and the Pendulum both songs (epics) require some research first as to what they are about as they are each in five parts. I would definitely advise the lyrics on screen. And Greatest Show from Tampere and The Poet from Wembley. Both have the lyrics. Many get utterly lost without knowing the background stories. Oh, and many stop The Greatest Show thinking it’s finished but there is still about five minutes left. My other suggestions both from the Wembley concert are Shudder Before the Beautiful and While Your Lips are Still Red (Marko with Floor backing). Also from Tampere, Marko’s The Islander. Oh, and if you ever decide to do all of one of their many concerts, I’M IN! Great channel guys. You two are my favourites. From Canada.

    At that moment she had a fat Dog and an skinny Wolf happy to go on the road again.
