Tarja Turunen @ The Fillmore, Washington, D.C., 01/23/2012

It’s official! The club's website just confirmed it—Tarja is coming to town as part of the What Lies Beneath Final tour 2012.

The show she played two years ago was absolute perfection—I am definitely making sure I'm there for this one! 😍

Here's the setlist:

😁

Any word on tickets yet? Does anyone actually know what the price point is going to be?

I suppose I’ll try my best not to miss her this time, though I can't say I'm certain I will, much unlike how I handled things back during that concert two years ago.

$63 says Ticketmaster

Oh man, I am absolutely not missing this one—not after what happened last time, haha! 🙂

Tickets are $180. I already snagged mine, mostly because I’ve been kicking myself for years after missing out on the last show. Both Tarjin American and Nightwish were on that lineup... this time, there is absolutely no way I'm missing it!

Check out our website and join Tarjin American fan club. It was started by fans from all over the US to help us eventually become the official Winter Storm Fan Club.

Yeah, please do!!

She played two new tracks... "Never Enough" and "Into the Sun"...😍
I guess they're from the upcoming album... though I suppose we don't really know when that's coming out yet, right? :O

she sang two new ones... "Never Enough" and "Into the Sun"...😍
supposedly from a future album... but what does "future" even mean at this point? :O

Anyone know which old tracks she used to sing back when she was still with Nightwish?

Here’s last night's setlist:

Phantom of the Opera 😍 Hopefully they'll sing that one for us too... 🙂
And I'd love to hear Nemo live 😁

They're swapping out some old tracks—here's the list for tonight's show: http://www.t-turunen.org/final-wlb-t...ts/01142012-2/

I can hardly wait!! 🙂

Does anyone have any idea what tonight's setlist might look like?
Also, does anyone know what time the doors actually open? 🙂
😍

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 It was honestly just beautiful... kind of like that last time we were out in Washington, D.C.... She actually caught me off guard by playing one specific song since I don't usually listen to it much, but that curtain and her mask 😁 were pretty much perfect for setting the mood...
I mean, if you didn't make it out to this one, you really missed out... though I suppose she’ll probably tour again eventually... If I had to nitpick, I guess maybe the show felt a little shorter than the previous one, but even so, getting to see her live again is more than enough for me 😁DD
And, I guess I should brag a little, but she actually grabbed my hand, gave me a setlist, and even handed me a drumstick... seriously... and normally, I never get anything at all 😍

anyone who missed out is seriously missing out... I’m sure she'll be back... the only thing is, maybe this show felt a little shorter than the last one? but whatever, we saw her again and that's enough for me 😁DD
And, just to brag a bit—she actually grabbed my hand, gave me the setlist, AND a drumstick... holy crap... I usually get absolutely nothing😍

I felt the exact same way about that first song—I kept telling myself, "please, let them play something else first," but I knew they wouldn't because it's always been the opener on every setlist, and man, I ended up loving it once I heard it live 😍
The opening was legendary—she’s basically royalty, period. She just commands the whole room, such a powerhouse woman... all I can say is I love her even more now that I've seen and heard her in person 😁 😍
It was amazing, I'm so glad I went, and I really hope she comes back to the States again 😁
I didn't get lucky enough to have her grab my hand 🤣 but I picked up a shirt with the design from the curtain, so at least I have a nice souvenir 🙂

Simply flawless.
Her, the setlist, the stage presence, the outfit... everything was just top-tier... I seriously hope she comes back to the States soon!!!!
It was such a blast—even the opening acts caught me off guard, honestly just perfect!

The intro was just legendary, she really is the queen of the stage, she just commands the whole room, she's such a powerful woman, and I guess all I can say is that my love for her has only grown after seeing her perform in person 😁 😍
It was an incredible experience, and I'm just so glad I went, I really hope they come back to visit us again 😁
I didn't get the chance to grab her hand for a quick hello 🤣 but I did pick up a shirt with the curtain design on it, so at least I have a nice memory to hold onto 🙂

I didn't end up buying a shirt because, well, I wasn't really feeling the designs 😛
My vision for a Tarja shirt would probably be a bit more understated and simple
I guess my only regret is that I didn't wait around for an autograph, but I had a big midterm exam the next day and hadn't even touched my textbook yet 😂
I'm pretty sure she'll make another appearance 😁
And I'm thinking Nightwish might swing by in 2013 if they don't show up in 2012... though, if I had to guess, 2013 feels more likely 😍

The woman herself, the setlist, the stage presence, even what she wore... everything was just top-tier. I really hope she comes back to the States soon!!!!
It was such a great night, and I have to say the opening acts actually caught me off guard—it was just perfect.

I mean, wasn't the kid from the first opening act kind of a Justin Bieber lookalike? 😂 😂 😂
They were pretty cute, I guess... XD
And the second opener was great too... I always tend to enjoy it when there's a violin involved. 😍
