Was it Canned Heat that did Goin' Up the Country? Well they were not really the first. Nope -- Henry Thomas a.k.a. "Ragtime Texas" from Big Sandy, Texas.

Speaking of great vocalists, this woman is incredible. Another from the greatest open air music festival on earth. Wacken...

I've seen Nightwish and I don't know how tall Floor Jansan is but I'm 6'5 and we seemed to be eye to eye.

Another highlighting her abilities.

Floor is 6’ and all awesome!

Been trying to see them live for quite a few years, its not easy to coordinate

Tarja was no slouch either.

yeah, Floor likes to wear heels so that's probably why we were close to eye to eye.

Seeing Nightwish live was a bucket list event for me.

Tarja was great, I like Floor better

The last show with Tarja.. I have the dvd.. The entire band knew they were firing her after this show... She had no idea it was coming. The music business is a shitty business..

My parents had front row seats for "Phantom" with original cast including Michael Crawford in London secured by my British citizen sister who lives W of there in High Wycombe. They said that when they were waiting for it to get started the stage looked so shabby they wondered what they had gotten into. But then when the chandelier lit up and rose from the floor right up over their heads and it transformed the stage, they were mesmerized from that point on.
