Dreamset: Within Temptation
I *was* going to do Tarja, but frankly she does all of her songs live, and she makes better choices about Nightwish covers than I ever could. SO INSTEAD I am doing WT. I try to make interesting choices which would go well together. I am particularly interested in Ye olde material and b sides which are not frequently performed.
Support acts: Anneke Van Giersbergen, Delain.
