Lunatic Danny Elfman is awesome. I've actually liked Danny longer than Tuomas.

aholic This is great but it's easy to go copy something.

Lunatic Yes, but I'm not pretending that it's me writing something, it's me posting something. It doesn't say by Lunatic anywhere, that I know of. (It does say "Posted by Lunatic," though.) I don't pretend to have any claim on this, but I wanted it here so that people could read it without searching the Nightwish website. I may actually write something later, but right now I'm just posting a few things.

aholic you could just have posted a link then?

cowgirlfromhell I tried to post this as link about four times but it didn't work :( I'll try again soon though.

Lunatic I could have (now that you mention it)... I didn't think about it at the time.

shadowwitch full name is Tuomas Lauri Johannes Holopainen
