Tuomas Holopainen’s Nightwish is the Finland’s eight best company.

And it tells that Tuomas is in studio taking promotional pictures for upcoming record.

Making music is like process where the music kind of floats from your head to keyboard, Tuomas says. You can compare making music to making movies. Like movies the music is made from parts, and most of the elements are born separately from each other.

It was meant that everyone in band is partners on Scene Nations. At year 2002 married singer Tarja Turunen didn’t come to partnership, but rather steered her incomes for his husbands Marcelo Cabuli’s company.

And later it was good thing, from other member’s point of view. Because, they would have had to bought her out. That would have been expensive and difficult as well.

Then it tells about Tarja’s firing. And that there has been over 1300 candidates already.

Strongest suspicions are that new singer is foreign. Holopainen doesn’t admit or deny. He just says that it is going to be a media spectacle, when new singer is pronounced.

Drummer deals with business

Scene Nations is owned by Tuomas, Jukka, Marco and Emppu and everyone has 25% share.
Everyone is having same shares and monthly paycheque.

Then it tells that Jukka deals with business and merchandise shop in Joensuu.
Warehouse in Joensuu is very neat.
