The gig took place at KB in Malmoe, Sweden, Sunday 29th of May 2005. Lucky day for Anette Blyckert
!
Anette tells:
“I recorded “Everdream” as a demo for Nightwish when Tarja was fired. Recorded that one song in one day and sent it forward.
I received e-mail from Tuomas almost instantly. He had liked my singing very much and asked me to send three songs more.
Later Tuomas said he was sorry but I couldn’t become their new vocalist even though I was the best one he’d heard so far. I wondered why, because of my age perhaps?
I was of course a bit upset about the decision but I couldn’t give up.
Then last summer I received the live DVD of Alyson and I had a feeling I should ask Tuomas if he wanted to see it. He did, so I sent it to him but didn’t hear anything back from him before September when Ewo called me: “Hi, I’m the manager of Nightwish. We’d like to ask you a couple of questions.”
Of course they asked about touring because I have a family. A child. I said I wanted to go touring. I’m not a typical stay-at-home mother. Singing is my whole life.”
