NIGHTWISH at Knotfest Finland

[@davfive]

It's makes any interview better when the interviewer is so obviously a huge fan and struggles to contain her joy at doing the interview. Great job.

[@peterbell3199]

agreed, she knew her stuff, and was clearly excited to be there.

[@paisa20]

oh, yes!

[@MetalPersonJ]

@@peterbell3199 no, she really didnt. she's kind of dumb honestly. 8:35 was especially cringe.

[@fisherkalastaja]

spot on!

[@peterbell3199]

Listening to Tuomas is always so relaxing, and it is obvious that he is such deep thinking and smart man. Meanwhile Kai .... "I'm on the internet searching stupid shit" lol

[@ValtteL]

Kai is a lot like Emppu. Very relaxed and doesn't take things too seriously. I'm sure they have a lot of fun in famous cabin lake when they relax every night. Food, beer, sauna and lake. Emppu and Troy are so hilarious that i'm sure it's wild 😄

[@scottb.4472]

Yeah something tells me that Tuomas will not be standing next to Kai enjoying Slipknot.......lol

[@kataratify]

@@scottb.4472 Why do you say that? Darkwoods My Bethroded isn't exactly symphonic metal....nor is Kotiteollisuus...and he's playing in both. I could see him enjoying it and then following it up with reading another Aku Anakka comic (Donald Duck)

[@scottb.4472]

@@kataratify oh it's simple I only said that because when Kai talked about seeing Slipknot I looked at the expression on Tuomas face and it was almost to me like oh God you can go without me LOL...... I was saying it it kind of like in a joking manner....... And you're absolutely right with what you said and what's interesting is that it wasn't any of the symphonic metal bands that really influenced him the most he always talks about Metallica and Pantera which are definitely not symphonic metal LOL

[@johannessilver8653]

Right.

[@christinaalgate4899]

I like listening to Tuomas talk 😌

[@soundocean3765]

Same. Wouldn't have minded if that interview was like 4 times its length.

[@miles_corpse]

I have unfortunately only seen nightwish once, my all time favorite band. I will see them when they come to america on the human nature tour, as my father vowed not to miss a nightwish show ever again, which i absolutely love lol. My father has met them in person after a show in denver, he and my mother are actuslly visible in the crowd on the "learn the setlist in 48 hours" on the imaginaerium tour, i was maybe 5 or 6 at the time and was unable tk go, so when my father started talking to tuomas, he told him about me, my little 5 year old ass running around the house singing nightwish songs, and tuomas loved these storys so much, my father says he looked a bit teary-eyed by the end of it, and i think thats just such a sweet moment and i would love to meet him myself some time

[@nikkinoise1]

I just LOVE Tuomas' beautiful voice and accent 🥰🥰🥰

[@yesnoyeswait4306]

First time i ever saw Nightwish live, and they didnt dissapoint. Their music can resonate feelings, that no other music can do.

[@heikkimuttonen5288]

I have seen them 22 times. First time the sound was only acceptable, after that 21 great giga!

[@maboleth]

Tuomas was always my inspiration and a muse. I can relate to many things he's done and is doing, both personally and in songs, I'm an INFP as well. What I do still admire is his calm and thoughtful nature. He seems so much in-check with himself. There's like a strong boundary around him and I think that's a good way to keep your sanity. I wish I had that for me, my temper is more reactive to stimulus, sometimes to my own detriment.

[@soundocean3765]

What a wonderful interview that is! The questions were all so interesting and felt way more varied than with many others to me personally. On a side note, omg, I could listen to Tuomas' thoughts, worldview and, well, simply his voice, for hours. Really hope in some alternative universe he's doing weekly podcasts.

[@kataratify]

Apparently sometime hopefully we'll get a book of short stories from him. I really, really would love to see that happen. Or a podcast, or anything. English or Finnish, I don't care. Heck, talk about Skyrim for hours, I wouldn't mind.

[@Vaamp92]

Why is Tuomas so hot? I love that he's gone back to the eyeliner, it looks great on him!

[@MetalSopranoQueen]

I ask myself that question everyday. Why is Tuomas so hot omg? But honestly I don’t even have answer myself lol 😂

[@Vaamp92]

[@Elvenboadicea]

He is the most beautiful man alive ❤️

[@MetalSopranoQueen]

@@Elvenboadicea I agree 👌

[@PersephoneSkye_]

Amazing interview and I love how they start talking about reading books versus reading it on a phone. I've always felt this way

[@keithteaser]

This is a great interview .Love that Kati is shy with the guys.

[@MegaDog555]

love nightwish

[@randalljones4370]

KnotWish? NightSlip? I would love to see a collab between the two.

[@brendannahor1460]

Emperor Tuomas might write some unbelievably fantastic songs; but his choice of Singers to convey his ideas, Tarja Turunen, Anette Olzon, Elize Ryd and Floor Jansen has been 2nd to none! Nightwish ROCK! 🤘🏻

[@David_randomnumber]

If you count Elize you also have to take Jonsu in as well. She is the reason I can't in good conscience enjoy "Last of the wilds"

[@brendannahor1460]

@@David_randomnumber I don't think Jonsu sang live with Nightwish; Elize did! 🤔

[@luisebritta6139]

Kati, I have been following your channel here for some time and just wanted to say that I really like the development. So cool to see it grow! Great interviews and great questions!

[@Donna-C]

10:14 - 11:17 - This sums up why Nightwish is enjoying such succeess - they are a great team or, as Tuomas said “it’s a wonderful balance of coconuts!”

[@cbzcbzx]

Well.. after Marko left, they made a new company named "A Lovely Bunch Of Coconuts "

[@simonechabauxtidu8171]

@@cbzcbzx why did they have to? Financial matters?

Nightwish at their best 🤘🖤🤘

[@mailen5187]

Great interview 🤘❣️

[@ricardofontes4203]

I wish somebody could ask them about some other songs of the Human Nature which they did not include in the setlist. That would be awsome to see them perform "Music" or "Pan" live.

[@Vaamp92]

Yeah cos they played Pan in the virtual show, didnt they?

[@scottb.4472]

Yes, they did

[@Xvic333]

I don't have a source for this but I heard the reason Pan isn't really played live is because it is incredibly difficult to play consistently on the guitar. Not sure why else they don't play it but that's what I heard.

[@liinukka3109]

What a wonderfully enthusiastic interviewer. I can imagine her's joy after getting an interview gig with Nightwish. ❤🤩 Btw, does anyone know a link where I can find the Blind Channel interview from the same festival🔥? Thanks in advance.

[@mustasilma]

I agree! I love Kati's enthusiasm. My girlfriend and I have been following her work for a long time.

[@mustasilma]

Kati did not interview Blind Channel at Knotfest, she did an interview with Blind Channel at Tuska: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYiwoZWqf66iopo

Whoa! Kai is wearing a VOLA t-shirt 🤯

Fun interview. Hopefully the tour dates in the description have a mistake and Nov 21st London is still going ahead.

[@rob3040]

Ooooo the Key Club. I went to many shows there but MISSED the secret Nightwish gig. So sad for me.

[@MusicInterviewCorner]

Maybe next time... Keep an eye out for the craziest band names 😉

[@gustavorosales8851]

A question for Emperor Tuomas: What is the reason Kai's drum kit was moved to the side of the stage? Thank you!

[@lekalla]

I think i heard it's because of the drums right behind Floor are fucking with the mic or something. Also Tuomas and Troy can now chat and drink wine together lol.

[@kathykrasz]

Floor's mic was picking up too much of Kai's drums and she said it was more difficult for her to sing. so they had two options: put a clear plastic (I may be wrong with the type of material) around Kai or move his set to the side. you can see the "cage" being put around a drummer who plays with Floor on her solo tour...

[@pryzmcat]

Hmm..capricorn fire dragon...I only recently discovered them..Im getting to like Nightwish more and more. So sad to see Marco go, just as I found them. But all good wishes for health and healing for him.

[@wayneccj0710]

It is usually Floor being interviewed, Hi Floor ❤️ if you read this, so it is very special to hear from the guys too.

[@johannessilver8653]

I enjoy them all to be interviewed. But a simple fact is that Tuomas is leading the charts with flying colors what comes to number of interviews about NW. The reason is quite obvious cause he founded the band in 1996 and been the leader since that.

[@rakewawrz5200]

I remember when the samsung s2 came out I spent four days with my face in it. Pulled up to the mall parking lot before I even got out of my vehicle I looked down at my phone and I said I had enough of this so I shut it off and when I looked up everybody else had their face and their phones.

[@gawainofalba3439]

👋🦁👌

[@oldrichvoralek7716]

Hope new Nightwish album will be again full metal, not celtic folk or movie insrumental soundrack. Nightwish should tell Troy thank you and good bye and become again metal band. Floor Jansen is best metal singer who can sing from operatic vocals to death metal growling, but she has got almost any chance in Nightwish to prove what is in her till now. Sad but true.

[@lekalla]

Both singing styles you mentioned Floor has used in Nightwish and many many more.

[@islgrl292]

Troy isn’t going anywhere, nor should he!

[@tony6896]

I think the 2 chords band Slipk...something was headliner...but yeah, Nightwish should have been that.

[@Anttik_]

Slipknot was headliner for Saturday evening. And Nightwish was headlining Friday evening.
