Changes to the studio albums

At this live performance there are some changes to the text or the melody on the studio album:

  • Tony Kakko sings the first four lines of Black Sheep differently.
  • In Kingdom for a Heart the band plays some verses from "Letter to Dana".
  • Fullmoon ends with the theme of "White Pearl, Black Oceans".
  • The band plays the last chorus of The Cage a lot slower and longer; this then flows directly into the praise of vodka, which is traditionally sung at the end of the concert .
