OK.  Here's an easy one:

From 1997 to 1998, Nightwish performed only seven times because three of the band were preoccupied by something else.  What were the band members doing?

Those three members had some important things they had to get done. They chose their actions well. Two of them, Nevalainen and Vuorinen, had an obligation to the military. The other, Turunen, decided to finish up her schooling. Fighting for what you believe in and bettering one's knowledge are more than valid excuses to take a leave of absense.
