Thank you for this! Do you have any information on what the difference will be in set times between Katatonia headlining or not?

I basically don't spend money unnecessarily on anything but music/music travel. I keep baseline everyday personal costs (food, transportation, etc.) minimized. Also it's very rare for me to stay in a hotel at a target destination (stay with friends mostly), and I just show up, experience the...

So Katatonia just announced a co-headlining tour with Devin (alternating headline each date), with Paradise Lost support. I will definitely make it to Minneapolis and Chicago, and likely either San Francisco+Los Angeles or Philadelphia+New York. Hopefully all 6. “Epic Kings & Idols...

Or what might be a little more likely, keep the Opeth/Katatonia tour, and add Anathema to that.

Same here. There’s also a lot of slowcore coming up that I’ll have to travel for (Low, Codeine, Mark Kozelek). Right now my calendar has those three, Swallow the Sun, Agalloch, Marduk, Milwaukee Days of the Doomed festival, and is awaiting Katatonia and some other slowcore dates...

I really hope both are happening as well, but would much rather see Katatonia headline with PL support than just watch Katatonia as a support act and then leave.

I saw them in 2008, and then just a few weeks ago in London. They definitely had a lot more 'stage energy' a few years ago, but the music quality is still good.

This seems to be Katatonia/Devin Townsend co-headlining, with support by Paradise Lost? As soon as anyone has any information on whether or not Katatonia is headlining, please let us know! This also implies a possible Katatonia headliner...

A friend who talked to the band at the Stockholm show said that they were planning on co-releasing, or nearly co-releasing the DVD along with the new album. Regardless, the DVD has been effectively done (minus the interviews and bonus material, some of which had to wait for the band to return to...

Just got back from Cleveland. - Met Lord Darksoul, and have some fun pictures to put up here once I get my mind back together. Fantastic, wonderful show. I was up front, and the vocals were as loud from the crowd behind me as they were from Jonas. One other thing- I seem to have left a couple...

I'm absurdly excited for Cleveland tonight. Darksoul, if I see you I'll say hi. I've met Anthony a few times, but not you yet.

"Last Fair Day Gone Night" should be the London Anniversary show DVD.

Yeah, just do it. Give yourself several extra hours in case anything goes wrong. I normally arrive at concerts at least an hour before doors, and then always get front row. Besides the drive from Milwaukee to Cleveland, two weeks later I have a 5 hour drive in the other direction for the...

8-ish hour drive one way to Cleveland. Driving out on Saturday, driving back on Monday.

Setlist? Anything which wasn't on Migs' list from the Montreal show? EDIT: It just made it to setlist.fm: Forsaker Liberation Soil's Song Nephilim My Twin The Longest Year Evidence Chrome For My Demons July Leaders Liberation! Really happy about this. I'm starting to count the hours to...
