	The one and only "That One Guy"	Damn thats awesome about your aviation job but I really don't think there is going to be anyone able to take up your place, you have some HUGE shoes to fill! Been a fan since 2004 but will carry on thru thick and thin!!! Good luck to you Stefan and to all of Hammerfall and hope you carry on as the Gods of rock as you were ment to be.   Posted by The one and only "That One Guy" on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 8:52 AM [Reply to this]

	Mats Mats Ödman	So is this one of the famous aprilfools or? It could be and I hope so....   Posted by Mats on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:06 AM [Reply to this]

	Peter Peter Eriksson	I hoped this was a joke. But it is not. You was one of the greatest guitarist I ever heard and you got to know that it is all up to you. Hope someone is worthy enough to take your place. Thanks for those years you played in HammerFall.   Posted by Peter on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:13 AM [Reply to this]

	Lex [SD]	If this is the case, then I must thank you for all those amazing riffs and licks that ou have conjured up with HammerFall. Thanks for the entertainment mate! Hopefully we'll hear more of you in the future!! =[   Posted by Lex [SD] on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:17 AM [Reply to this]

	Alexandra	Well, you must do, what you want to do... I think. I know people who have changed the remarkable work for another things... though it does not bring them money or glory. The main thing is to do that is interesting to you. And nobody has the rights to solve for you, what to do. You are a very professional guitarist, and I wish you to reach professionalism in a new job! Success!   Posted by Alexandra on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:32 AM [Reply to this]

	Truls	Jeg tror nok Hammerfall vil få problemer med å finne en som kan ta plassen din! Men gratulerer med ny jobb og lykke til!   Posted by Truls on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:50 AM [Reply to this]

	Steve	As a fan I'm disappointed but I'm glad Stefan has decided to follow his dreams. Finding a worthy replacement to fill his shoes probably won't be easy for HF. But who knows....maybe they'll hire a guitar god like former Sonata Arctica guitarist Jani Liimatainen to replace him. That would kick ass! Anyway, best of luck to Stefan and thanks for all the metal memories he has given us over the years. SHRED ON!   Posted by Steve on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:50 AM [Reply to this]

	Carl	I wish I could be happy for Stefan but this is truly a day of sorrow for me. For me Stefan was part of the very core of Hammerfall, it won't ever be the same! :(   Posted by Carl on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 9:51 AM [Reply to this]

	Alãn the Prõfessional	This is news that catches one off guard. But nothing can be shared within in it, but respect. Hammerfall is a great band. Stefan is a great guitarist. Good look. I have been listening to Hammerfall for years and I hate to see Stefan go, but Metal Hearts do what they please don't they? Best wishes to you Stefan and to Hammerfall. Hearts on Fire! Long live the Templars of Steel!   Posted by Alãn the Prõfessional on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 - 10:22 AM [Reply to this]
