Hi everyone. "Nothing is constant, except change," said Joey Tempest. This forum has been a new home to many of the members who emigrated from the official europetheband.com forum after its closure in 2012. Together with the new friends that have joined us in recent years, we have managed to create a consistent place of support for the band. Our intention is to keep this going and for that we believe that we must evolve, so there is a group of forum users who are working on a Facebook page that will represent this place: Wings of Tomorrow: The EUROPE Fan ForumThe idea is to promote this forum on Facebook and reach out to more people so that more EUROPE supporters can join us and celebrate the EUROPE fandom. Work is being done to make sure that the philosophy of this Facebook page will be the same as that of this forum: To share news, photos, information and a lot of fun in supporting EUROPE, always with passion but also with respect for the band members and their private lives and of course fellow supporters. We know that Facebook can be a difficult place but we will work hard to make this new page a reference point in the world of EUROPE fandom, like this forum, where everyone can feel comfortable. The opening of the Facebook page is scheduled for September. We will be giving more information over the coming weeks, and of course we want to see you all there. More news to come... See you soon on Facebook!

Thanks, Stein! I like the idea of a FB page representing this Forum. My thoughts, though hopeful, went in another direction... Will the FB page merely direct the fans to this place and its topic threads, or become an alternative place with the same philosophy? I like this Forum because it gives a wider view of each post and allows quotes.

Thanks Stein ! Interesting question dear Clair I'm going to be one of the administrators in the new Forum's Facebook Page, but not the only one, there are more people behind this project The goal is that the facebook page be an open door to the Forum for people who love EUROPE and need a place to develop the issues about the band in a more careful way than on facebook where everything is more superficial. The Forum will remain the same, its structure, its philosophy, its way of doing things, and that is what we are looking for on the facebook page, it will actually be a prolongation of the Forum there, not a parallel site as Clair asks. Each post will have a thread of the forum behind, we will not open new topics there that are not being treated here or that have not already been discussed in the forum, Facebook will be a space for promotion, search for new fans for the forum,. .. but this corner will remain the same taste, and that is the direction in which we are working. We all know facebook, but the Forum page will be a serious place, where we will talk about music and musicians, concerts, photos and emotions, as we do in our forum. And of course ! We'll share just OFFICIAL NEWS of the band. And in that sense we have to be rigorous, the forum has open threads where we discuss possible dates of the band, of course we can! this is a private space, but as I know how it works facebook, the idea is that there we are only going to share the dates that are already confirmed by the band. We are waiting for you all there, or not, I mean, there are people from the forum who don't like facebook and it isn't there, and they will keep coming here, it has nothing to do with it. As I said there are more people in this project (wonderful people by the way) perfect if as me say some words here as I'm doing, but on Facebook the publications will be "the forum" and not with our "profiles" there, the important thing isn't who is behind. We continue working, if anyone has any questions or input, it is welcome friends.

Hello, our facebook page has in this moment right now 113 followers Thank you very much to all. The goal isn't to fight to get more followers in a certain time, ... the idea is how this forum that the people who are there really want to do it, it doesn't matter if it is a lot people or a bit, ... and if with time our page gets more followers, it will be great ... but the main things is to do a consistent place of support.
