I will see them soon in Switzerland but they are also announced back in April next year. No idea if they plan to play full Winter's Gate though. Cannot wait to see them live !

Well worth seeing them play Winter's Gate live in full!
I had the immense opportunity to travel to Finland this summer and catch them live in their hometown Joensuu playing with the city's symphonic orchestra. Incredibly powerful! Just that hour and a half was well worth travelling there from Canada.

Ehh......

Gotta be honest, while its a good album, Winters Gate is not a great Live Album. Saw them pretty recently with Epica and the Winters Gate songs don't get the crowd going. The Crowd didn't start to come alive until they played more recognizable tracks like Mortal Share and Ephemeral. Winters Gate songs are just too long and lack catchy choruses.

I'm pretty excited to see the 40 minute song. Thought it was a great piece of work! Hopefully they bring Tribulation with them to the states!

Who's to say that if the crowd doesn't move they aren't feeling it?

Also, fudge you Insomnium for not playing the whole album in Europe as well.
