[tommy jackson]

So all ya folks out there, where would you like Green Carnation
to play a kickass show? Anywhere!!! Give us your opinion!
Rubber duck...

[dead6skin6mask6]

Philadelphia


i answered first... therefore, it should be in Philly! :)

[MadTinus]

The Netherlands, Utrecht preferably :).

Check this venue: www.tivoli.nl

[Buman]

Oslo for faen! You DO have fans here, as well. A gig at Betong or John Dee would be super!

[DragonLady]

come to austria :)

[EonBlue]

Um...just look at every member's location.

That's where they want you to play.

Just do a US tour already.

[marduk1507]

Czech or Slovak Republic. Come to Brutal Assault next summer!

[Mumintrollet]

Come to Helsinki, Finland!

[piercepd]

OK, all you England residents out there, we need to team up here. Bloody Europeans already get the chance to see these guys but not on this island.

Can all of us make London & do we agree that it's the most logical?

[Hammasphee]

YES!!!
Mean Fiddler is (IMHO) a great venue, seen so many fantastic gigs there, and it's very easy to get to from anywhere.
Please?

[raiseyerfists]

play on a barge in the middle of the atlantic ocean so that the european and american fans meet halfway...failing that play in boston/providence Rhode Island

[ZANNA]

You HAVE to come here....in Italy. the most beautiful country in the World. A concert in my house if you want...:)

[Exactly]

Philadelphia!

[piercepd]

Right, well down here we've already booked up Behemoth & Nile, Dragonforce have played & we're trying to get My Dying Bride as well.

Play Brighton!

the most logical place would be somewhere near the middle of the country so that its as easy for southeners as it is for northeners to get to ie, wolverhampton, leicester, coventry... BIRMINGHAM :cool:


this ofcourse has nothing to do with the fact i live in birmingham and dont own a car :rolleyes:

lol

No doubt, Budapest is the right answer!

Hungarian fans are waiting for you!!!

Norfolk, Virginia. USA

As you can tell by the homepage listings and the schedule, we are dying for at least something decent. You guys would be above and beyond our expectations. Seriously. We're starving for quality here.

Play in Krakow again r somewhere in Poland PLEAS :D , it would by superb to hear you after knowing your songs now :p

VOTE KRAKOW, R POLAND...

[Kjetil N]

Hello!

We had a great time in Krakow (and in Warszaw), and would be delighted to come back some time!

Played three gigs in Poland with Trail of Tears last month, and again the crowds were big and noisy! Cool!

Kjetil

[N.F.D.M.]

Please come to Austria!!
Vienna would be the best city to play

Now we have 2 votes for austria, dragonlady and myself :)
I hope there are some other austrians on this board

[Kjetil N]

Yeah!

Planet Music in Wien was probably one of the best nights on Green Carnation's last tour (with Suidakra and Mork Gryning), so it wouldn't be against our wishes to go back!

Strasbourg in France :)

[anima_sola]

please come to austria!
the ideal place would be the Orpheum in Graz.

[Kjetil N]

Hi!

Cool to see the interest from so many different places..

As posted on the www.greencarnation.no, the first gigs for the new year will be official within not too long, and we are working extremely hard on more gigs these days!

So - hopefully we will see many of you on the road during the year..

But keep the wishes coming...

Kjetil

[MisstressOfBeer]

I hope so !!!

Couldn't make it to the gig in Holland last time as i promised my best friend to go see Dimmu Borgir with her ... and i guess that was the closest you were from Belgium...

*keeps hoping for a gig in Belgium*

[Alexandr]

Well, we have many fans from Poland here, from Austria, Slovakia and Germany. What all these countries have in common? They all lay around Czech Republic! Moreover, Czech Republic is approximately in the middle of Europe, so nobody has to travel too far (sorry my American friends). Good and cheap beer is another pro. ;)
Czech fans are eager to see you here, guys. Don't let us wait for too long!:D
Alexandr

[Kjetil N]

Hey!

Well - it would be great to go to the Czech Republic!

When I played in Prague in November with Trail of Tears, I signed my first pair of tits! I was flying for the rest of the day..

So - I wouldn't mind at all, actually..

[CraigMcD]

Ah sure come back to Dublin!

I know you loved it last time;)

[Kjetil N]

Hello, Macca!

We're actually working on a return to Ireland within not too long. You're right, we absolutely loved it...

Kjetil

[Pilgrim]

I know the tourdates are probably decided by now and the location has been mentioned already, but just to let you know:
WARSAW !!:cool:

please...:)

[refnulf]

how about playing in Islamabad, Pakistan?

Its the capital. :P

Please?

[Kjetil N]

Pakistan?

Well - why not. Haven't thought about that just yet:)

Kjetil

[Kanduth]

oy guys

come to switzerland, can hardly recommend the Z7 (www.z-7.ch) in Pratteln (very north of Switzerland)
its like THE rock/metal venue in switzerland...

cheers! would love to see you here

[Kjetil N]

Yeah!

I agree Z7 is an absolutely great place to play. Have been there two or three times previously, and it's actually one of my favourite venues in all Europe!

If invited, I say yup!

Kjetil

[Kanduth]

yeah!

i saw that you were playing there with trail of tears... but... i could not come that day :(

i was in the Z7 already as well with an austrian band i'm kind of managing... they made support for deadsoul tribe. indeed: awesome venue and awesome people behind it

so hope to see you there with GC ;)


greetings from switzerland

k.

[LILLITH]

As your gig on last year MetalCamp in Slovenia was cancelled because of the damn rain, i think you should come this year! :D

Or maybe anywhere in Italy or Croatia or Slovenia! :p

[Kanduth]

Originally posted by neon_bastard

np Dead Soul Tribe - Powertrip


Divine Temptation

ok it actually was a threshold gig and deadsoul tribe made the support, and on two gigs (Komma, Wörgl & Z7, Pratteln) Divine Temptation opened for them..

[Animal]

Australia, sure youd be playing to a phonebooth full of people, but still it'd be ideal promotion. Nightwish who are huge in Europe are playing here to 1000 people, and that with no promotion for their concert, just fans on the internet, so if they could do it youd be a shoe in

[slurpeeaholic]

Canada :rolleyes: :D

[Illnath]

Come to Denmark we understand Norwegian....I do anyway:rolleyes:

[Kjetil N]

Hello!

Well - yes - we have never played in Denmark before, but that might change soon.. We have been in contact with several promotors down there, and are desperate to pay you a visit..

Which cities would you recomend? Isn't Copenhagen and Aarhus or Aalborg the best ones for this kind of music??

Kjetil

[Illnath]

I say Copenhagen because that is the city that I am the closest too.:D

What venues have you've been offered? To tell you the truth I really don't know how many fans you guys have here (You deserve more anyway) maybe you should inquire your interest in the Copenhagen nightclub called "The Rock" they also have gigs, so far they have been able to get quite famous bands such as.


Artillery.
Sonata arctica.
Sameal.
Evergrey.
Mercenary.
Morbid Angel.
Cannibal Corpse.
Paradise Lost (Comming in May)
Allot of Norwegian black metal bands.

Hanson:eek: (The biggest surprize if you ask me)

[Oral Slang]

Definitely play Dublin again - gig was amazing last time, as was Tower records..
Would also be great to see you at Graspop in Belgium in June - there are a good few of us heading over to it & would love to see you on the bill!

[Kjetil N]

Hey!

Currently working on a return to Dublin. We absolutely loved it there the last time, and should return for what will be one of our first shows after the release of "The Quiet Offspring"...

Hopefully there will be some dates 100 percent official within not too long, but keep the wishes coming..

Kjetil

[Exactly]

I'll be coming to Graspop from the US.

Play there!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[piercepd]

Talking to people in England?!

Woohoo!!

:D

[Kjetil N]

Hey!

Yeah - but still some way to go..

K

[piercepd]

Yeah, but it's a start!!

Woohoo!

Are you saying where or not junxing anything?

[N.F.D.M.]

last week i talked to the guy from KV Kaltenbach (promotion and gig organizers in austria) and he would be proud to organize a gig for you!
just write an email to kaltenbach@chello.at

website: http://www.kv-kaltenbach.org/ (but the whole thing is in german)

I hope that gonna works :)
17 days left to see you @ inferno, olé!

[Kjetil N]

Hello!

We don' have any regular ones that work for us.. that's a bit of the problem.. But it might change soon, though, we hope.

K

[dead6skin6mask6]

USA, you FUCKS! i mean... i like... pepsi :D

[Kjetil N]

Hello!

We were actually hoping to confirm a US date this week, but sadly it fell through.. We'll keep on trying, though..

K

[dead6skin6mask6]

damn... would you be able to tell us what date it WOULD have been, just to see what you were aiming for? hehe

[Kjetil N]

Well..

I don't think that would be fair to the ones wanting to bring us over, but it was quite a big thing over there.. A festival.. But as I said, we are still working on things, both festivals and tours.. I have to admit, though, that it's really hard. It's an expensive thing for promotors to bring us over, but we are still hoping there will be some gigs over there during the year.

Kjetil

[Kjetil N]

I am quiet sure we will annnonce four or five more gigs now within a week or so..

We are very busy at the moment with planning, so keep the wishes coming!

Kjetil

[Uphobia]

Come to The Netherlands! :cool:

[Alexandra]

Toulouse - F - is a such beautiful place, for our minors friends, you can have a beer when you're 16 ; and for the others, pubs are opened til 2 a.m during the week, and some of them til 5 during the week-end.
See you soon ?

[Kjetil N]

Haha..

We'd love to come and play in Toulouse. I did a gig there not too long ago with Trail of Tears. It was the last show on the tour, and was a real blast!!

Great city! And I guess some of the guys from the U.S. would love to come as well...

K

[Kanduth]

well somewhere in switzerland would still be the roxx0r.

if you bandguys want me to get my ass into organizing smth, please let me know - i have a few things in mind that could actually really turn out great

since i really dont know if you're already checking out switzerland.

[---]

ok, so what's the chances of you guys getting to the states sooner than later? i'm seriously thinking about getting a ticket for this Toronto gig, especially cause you're headlining...but October is really far away and i don't even know what i'm doing with my life next month. 800+ miles is a bit of a drive too, but if i wait too long it's gonna be sold out. please advise!

besides that, i vote for anywhere on the US east coast, philly, or the jaxx in springfield VA. and if you come to north carolina and you'll save me lots of driving.

[piercepd]

Just spotted the london date, I'll be the big bearded dude with the septum ring & LoD, DoD t-shirt at the front!

HELL YEAH!!

Looking for support? ;0

[piercepd]

In touch with them now. Wonder if we'll get a refund on the tickets.

[Alexandra]

...south of France, of course !
You can try this links to come touring in Toulouse :

www.premiere-pression.com
www.bleucitron.net

See you soon !

[dannish]

hey everybody... just to let you know that I've got a ticket to the GC's gig in London - Underworld with number 00001. :)

I'm so lucky... how long is to 15th of June???? oh three more weeks...

[Dimas]

In the Netherlands, at my student club Catena to be precise. I think there are quite a number of people here who would like to hear you play

[tommy jackson]

Can all of us make London & do we agree that it's the most logical? [/B][/QUOTE]

HOPE TO SEE YOU IN LONDON 15 JUNE!!!

[japanfreak]

go to germany, somewehre near switzerland..i would be there and in germany i think you have few fans....
and its also near austria and france
your fans there will come too!

[Kjetil N]

Hey everybody!

After coming home from UK and Ireland yesterday, the amazing feedback on that tour has made us more eager than ever to get back on the road again.

We have something going this late autumn, but we have already started planning the winter months.

So, Dannish, do you think there will be enough interest from the people in your area for us to come and play? And are there some other places that Green Carnation should come and play, I mean where there are lots of people other than you also into Green Carnation??

Country, city/town and agent/contact person if possible would be nice..

Thanx and cheers to all of you!!

Hope to see you on the road then!

Take care!

Kjetil

[Kanduth]

hey kjetil - do you ever check out your private messages? ;-)

[Kjetil N]

Hi!

Well - not too often I'm afraid.. But I will now. Guess there's something there for me..

Thanx!

[cheechonaleash]

I just wanted to let you guys know that I am so glad to hear that you're going to be playing Toronto. I am in a town called Lindsay which is about an hour drive to Toronto. I will BE there. And I read that you wouldn't complain about having more opening acts... a friend of a friend fronts a band out of Leamington, Ontario (nearby Detroit, Michigan). The band goes by the name of Bloodshoteye and they have a definite influence from Lamb of God. If you're at all interested in finding out if they are perhaps interested in joining the bill, their website is http://www.bloodshoteye.com and the booking and contact info is under the 'shows' heading. Anyways, this might be totally ridiculous, but hey... just a thought! Cheers, you guys are wicked!

Kris

[Kjetil N]

Thanx a lot for the info.

No place is too small or too far away for us! So we'll definitely check that out!

Thanx again!

Hi there!

We'll be in Holland October 1st on the ProgPower Europe (in Baarlo). Because this is a exclusive show in the BeNeLux countries, you'll have to wait a bit for another show. But hope to see you at the ProgPower anyway.

And for all you other people, I have been speaking to people in about ten countries about gigs the last couple of days. Nothing is certain yet, but we have been following your wishes as much as possible!!

So keep them coming!!

Cheers!

Kjetil

[nordland]

Have you heard about Fryshuset?
A building in Stockholm where there are two arenas, "klubben" and "arenan".
I have seen many bands there, Dimmu Borgir + Hypocrisy, Megadeth + Diamond Head, Dissection, Mayhem, Dark Tranquillity + Kreator and more...
Their webpage is www.fryshuset.se, and I found a contact e-mail adress to them:

info@fryshuset.se

Otherwise, there are several clubs in Stockholm city, for example Mondo and Debaser.

Mondo: info@mondostockholm.com

Debaser: info@debaser.nu

I really hope you can come to Sweden, it doesn't matter if there are 2000 people or 200 people there, I will be one of them :D

[Kjetil N]

Thanx a lot! I'll check that out.. will hopefully lead to our first gig ever in Sweden!

Cheers!

No problems :)
Post here if anything happens!

[Ripper]

Come and play Chicago!!!

But I guess we will have to wait longer seeing how the Toronto show is an exclusive. :(

What about Mexico City? I'll probably be down there in December sometime.

[frostysalamander]

Now sure if it has been mentioned yet, but come to Australia!

[Kjetil N]

Australia sounds great.

But we do not have any contacts there. If you can help us with that, it's more than worth a try.. We've had quite a lot of questions from Australia about a gig or more!

Kjetil

[frostysalamander]

Unfortunetly I do not, so I'll jsut keep hoping you guys do find someone

[Rot'alithum]

Come Tuska Metal Festival next year (06)! http://www.tuska-festival.fi/

[Kjetil N]

Hehe..

Well - we're discussing three gigs in Finland these days, to be held later this year.

Hope that's OK with you.. and if everything turns out good, we'll hopefully be invited next year..

K

[anima_sola]

Do you plan some gigs in Austria??

[Kjetil N]

Hard to say. We have talked to some people, but haven't agreed anything just yet. So I guess we'll have to wait and see.

K

[DragonLady]

I hope it will work :)

[MadTinus]

You're playing at Progpower in NL, but Baarlo not exactly next door for me, please come to Utrecht, Tivoli is a great venue! www.tivoli.nl Or Amsterdam www.melkweg.nl or www.paradiso.nl.

[Kjetil N]

Hmm.. wouldn't be against me to come to Holland, but we have promised the guys at the ProgPower festival not to play nearby for a while, so the festival apperance will be as exclusive as possible.

But we're hoping to build our name further with the ProgPower gig, and hopefully come back over the new year.. Holland rules!

K

[Kanduth]

btw kjetil, check private messages again

[Kjetil N]

Everyone:

Even though things are taking time, we have been talking to people after reading your wishes, and hopefully we can do some gigs as a result of this thread within not too long..

So keep the wishes coming!!!

Cheers, and thanx a lot for the interest!

Kjetil

[ShadowDancer]

you guys should definitely come over to Scotland! Edinburgh preferably! :D

[Mariska]

Well Holland would be cool but I think you guys should go to Graspop Metal Meeting in Dessel, Belgium. It 's a festival I go to every year and it 's always worthwile!

[Damien666]

so, we are not invited to play at Baroeg or in your backyard? hrmf...

[Mariska]

Hehe my backyard would be ok with me but I think the neighbours might have a slight problem with that.
You guys know De Baroeg? That would be perfect, it 's only like half an hour from my house! I was there last Sunday hehe!

[Natascha]

hmz... Baroeg... they still need to do something about the temperature when the venue is packed...
Come to 013 in Tilburg!!!
(Yeah Mariska, you can sleep here ;))

[H-O-D]

You probably get alot of "Come to my town it rocks" comments but Im still gonna make another one. Since you did a show in Toronto I guess it might be possible for you guys to come to Montreal. I would prefer if you guys could come to Ottawa because its way closer to my place but Montreal is a bigger city, youd have more chances of doing a good show there. There are many different places for shows, from big to small ones. There is the Metropolis and the The Medley that most well known metal bands go to. You can have around 2000 people (well thats my guess) in both places. The Medley is really a nice place for shows, the atmosphere is great. Also there is The Spectrum or The Club Soda if you want to put up a bit smaller show. There is also the bar "Les foufounes Électriques" that sometimes greet bands. WASP did a show there 2 summers ago. After having seen shows in some different towns, I must say that the people attending shows in Montreal usually make the band feel like Kings. And heres a little something to prove what I support (The Quote is from Nick MCbrain, Maiden's drummer, and it is about the show they did on August 2nd 2003) : "Well I can tell you this (Québec City) show and Montreal were most definitely on the top five list of Maiden shows ever. The audience and the way we played at these two gigs were unsurpassable. ‘Kin amazing nights. The only way to explain this is you had to be there to feel it. Magic couple of nights. The third gig was in Toronto on the Sunday night. This was a great gig as well but lacked a little, I don’t know, Magic maybe. It is so hard to explain what makes something more special or different than others but it was still a fantastic evening. " Heres another one about the show they did on Jan. 20th 2004 : "We had a great gig in Montreal, nearly 10,000 fans were there, which is incredible as we only played at the same venue last August!! And they always give us a huge welcome - thanks guys or should it be merci."

Anyway, my point is that Im sure if you guys came to MTL (cause I dont think youve ever did a show there, have you?) you could do a kick ass show.

Also, Im pretty amazed that members from the band actually answer their fans and listen to them on this forum. Keep it up and most of all, keep making great music!

[+Child+]

Come back to Poland! :-)

I am same opinion ;-) COME BACK TO POLAND! :-)))

There is also info about promoters in other parts of the UK there as well. I don't know who out of that list would be best, but there should be someone on there who would be suitable for putting on either Green Carnation or Chain Collector. Hope that this is useful.

[john_mcc]

I would certainly agree with that. I look forward to seeing you there :)

[Kjetil N]

Great stuff.. and to remind all of you again - Europe is not forgotten, although we're spending a long time in the U.S. quite soon.

So - keep your wishes coming, the feedback here will mean something when we are to plan our activity in Europe within not too long!!

Kjetil

[taran]

get yer sorry asses to wales.great people,great beer,great scenery...its known as the 'land of song' for fucks sake,what more do you want?

Would Cardiff or Swansea be the best, or maybe somewhere else??

Kjetil

[taran]

it depends,swansea has a cool music scene,but the bigger audiences would be in cardiff.theres a really decent venue there called 'the barfly'.oh,theres also a good venue in bristol,the'bierkeller',been there many times!

[jimmyp]

Adelaide, Australia would be awesome!

[Rider_Ov_Theli]

I will be seeing your show in San Antonio, TX in March. Thanks for coming down here.

You guys should play in UK again!! Preferably in Birmingham :p . Can check out here for venue http://www.birmingham-academy.co.uk/. London is ok though :beerchug:

[Kjetil N]

We've been working quite hard lately to get some gigs in Europe in the late-summer. And even though we're going to the U.S. in a couple of days, I hope we can have some dates for you within a week or so. England might well be one of the countries on our mini-tour..

Holey schnikeys! I don't know about GC, but I'll be there!

[A Trace Of Blood]

Boston please.

[Natascha]

Mariska, you forgot about the beer ;)
Kjetil, wanna play at the Dynamo venue again? :p

[Mariska]

Mariska, you forgot about the beer ;)

Is the picture of Hertog Jan I put on the forum invisible?? :P

[Catatonik]

For the love of all that is metal

more Canadian dates...and not just the bloody east side.

Vancouver or Edmonton...PLEASE.

[eppie]

Even though you are big in Central Europe and even bigger in the USA, you are missed here in Finland, as well... Any news about Tuska 2006?

[zombieINC.]

DENVER!!!

[Kjetil N]

We're as sorry as you about the cancelling in Denver. Hopefully we can return within not too long!!

K

[LadyPolaris]

Long shot, but... Rio de Janeiro, Brazil? *pleading face*

...One can dream!!

[Kjetil N]

I'm glad some of you will be happy now!!! More European dates to be announced soon!!!

Another Fan from Australia. you need to come here Brisbane above all else.
you mentioned not having any connections here. so i am not sure if this will help but i noticed some bands using THE FRONTIER TOURING CO.

The Arena is a popular venue here. http://arena.oztix.com.au/

and this was from what i can see a list of many promoters in Aus.

Im not sure if this helps even in the slightest thought it was best to try.

[EricT]

A non 21+ gig in Salt Lake City for the next tour if possible... heh (not to be a begger :P).

[Kjetil N]

Hehe.. would love to return to Salt Lake City. If I remember correctly, that was where Kenneth played his first (and until now) last guitar-solo in Green Carnation. Great stuff, great memories. Kjetil

[Darth Grimby]

Play Moncton, New Brunswick Canada (The east coast). We're only an 8 hour drive from Boston.

[piercepd]

Well you know how you've played 2 utterly stunning gigs in Camden? How about a 3rd. ;¬)

[Undead]

Definetely in Serbia or Bosnia, or anywhere in former Yugoslavia... You have got a lot of fans here, although you probably don't know that, if you just look at the sales of your discs... Pirates rule this goddamn Balkans... Although I own all the originals :) (except "The burden is mine...Alone", it looks like it is impossible to find it here)...

Anyway, it would be great to see you guys here! The last time I talked to a friend of mine who works for a promotion agency in Belgrade, I asked him about their plans for the next period, and among the couple of bands he mentioned, was GC (so he is now mine best friend, hehe)... That would be mine musical dream come true... So if you guys are approached by some Belgrade promoters, don't turn it down!

[Soundjunkie]

if you guys could some how make it to Big Day Out down in Australia that would be the greatest ever. The big day out is a large music festival that happens every year. lots of international and local bands.

[Kjetil N]

Checked it out, looks great! So if you can arrange that for us, we'll be more than thankful;)

Kjetil

[Soundjunkie]

hmmmm, you no i actually might give this a try. seeing you guys would be the greatest thing ever. i guess getting in contact with one of the promoters would be a start.
the two main promoters being ... Triple J (http://www.triplej.net.au/) and Channel V (http://www.channelv.com.au) i guess i could send them an email.

You still haven't been to Sweden, have you?

[Kjetil N]

No, we haven't. Sweden seems qutie "dead" when it comes to Green Carnation. Wouldn't be against us at all to come, but we need some interested promoters to contact us, and they haven't done so yet.. :)

K

[Darth Grimby]

Kjetil, what are the chances of you touring Canada (especially east coast)?

[Dries]

The answer to: where do you want us to play a kickass gig?
Would definitely be: In my living room :emot-boun :emot-boun :emot-boun :emot-boun
(it's quite close to Baarlo so you should be able to find it.....)

But jokes aside: Please come to The Netherlands.

I don't get it, but it just seems to be that way, some bands never become established in some countries by some reason.

[Hobo]

I second that.. come to sweden, I am waiting.. :)

btw.. hi everyone.. just registered here.. know some of you from UM, been lurking here unregistered for some time.. :)

[Kjetil N]

OK.. so we've got two from Sweden, then:)

Where would it be best for us to go to, you think? Or - to rephrase the question, where is the best scene for our type of music in Sweden??

I don't have a clue about that, but Stockholm is way bigger than the other cities, although that might not matter at all.
Maybe you should try to get to Sweden Rock Festival next year?
I've already voted for you a couple of times. :p

Well... I´d say somewhere not to big, yet famous.. Klubben in Fryshuset, Stockholm. Loads of good shows there, takes about 100-200 (don't know for sure)..
It is a real good stage.

otherwise, if you want even smaller, try Cafe 44.. takes about 50 ppl, plus, it is pretty ease to get a gig there, just bribe Tompa (the owner... at least he was the owner..) :)

[MadTinus]

Hi Björn! :)
