We got to see a glimpse of Witch Fever, Bush and Volbeat when they came to Tampere’s Nokia Arena as the stop in Finland of the ‘Greatest Of All Tours’ tour! An event by Live Nation Finland.
Happoradio are currently on a concert hall tour through Finland and we managed to see them during their sold out gig at Tampere-Talo on the 27th of September. An event by Soldout Management.
The Rasmus started their ‘Weirdo’ tour at Tavara-Asema in Tampere, Finland on the release day of their new album of the same name, with a setlist full of songs from the new album as well as many of their greatest hits.
Apulanta and Sinfonia Lahti gave us a great experience with their recent gig at the end of August at Tampere’s Ratina Stadium. A massive production by Nelonen Media Live that didn’t leave any needs unsatisfied.
TollRock 2025 Day 1 was not only blessed with wonderful weather but with an impressive line-up on the first day. Starting with Lost Sanity (TollRockerz Band Contest Winner 2024), followed by April Art, Emil Bulls, Fiddlers Green, Skindred and Rock Rising gave an impressive list of artists. The audience was thrilled by the great live performances of all bands on stage. The expectations for day 2 have been raised to an almost unbeatable level.
Day two of Tuhdimmat Tahdit brought Michael Monroe, Moon Shot, Black Devils, Hardcore Superstar, Turmion Kätilöt, Battle Beast and the legendary Blind Guardian to Tampere’s Eteläpuisto on the second day and was great yet again! We surely will be back at this festival in the future.
We, yet again, had a blast enjoying this year’s edition of Tuhdimmat Tahdit, which brought Finntroll, Kilpi, Mustasch, Timo Rautiainen & Trio Niskalaukaus, Lordi, Amaranthe and HammerFall to Tampere’s Eteläpuisto on the first day!
For their recent gig in Tampere’s Tavara-Asema, Viikate went with a different approach with what they called a “quiet concert”. While not everyone was happy with the set up of the gig we really enjoyed the calm and relaxed feeling of the show.
The Rock Orchestra travels around the country to bring their take on rock and metal classics and turn it in quite the experience both musically and visually, and brought their show to Finlandia-talo in Helsinki a couple of months ago!
Mixing classical music and metal is a well tested concept by now. The Rock Orchestra did a great job when they came to Tampere-Talo on Monday the 7th of April.
