Nightwish's Tuomas Holopainen Would Surprise Fans With Magazine

.
(Classic Rock) Nightwish mainman Tuomas Holopainen has revealed his passion for blues rock icon Gary Moore. In the exclusive video he explains why Moore would be among the musicians featured if he was made guest editor of Classic Rock for one issue.

And despite an obsession with fellow Finns Battle Beast, he says that his edition might surprise those who only know him for his symphonic rock output.

Nightwish � who recently confirmed temporary frontwoman Floor Jansen as a permanent addition � today released live DVD Showtime, Storytime. Meanwhile, Holopainen is completing work on his concept album The LIfe And Times Of Scrooge, based on cartoon character Scrooge McDuck. It's due out in April. Watch the interview here.
