It also depends on the tuning. I'm sure he uses different gauges for his guitars tuned to Drop D and open D Minor.

Yeah I think I'll stick with 440 until somebody gives me a real reason to tune to 432.

Listening to Opeth whilst stoned = amazing.

^ James completely butchered that song, much like he does his own songs.

I prefer the original. Layne's voice is what makes the song.

Best DT album since Scenes from a Memory.

Mike Portnoy sucks.

So if Opeth using sax is a shitty idea, does that make the use of oboes and flutes in Watershed a shitty idea too? OPETH R TOO METULZ FOR USE DIFFRUNT INSTRUMENTZ If I recall, Behemoth incorporated a lot of horns into The Apostasy and it sounded just fine. Have an open mind, guys.

Mellotron Heart.

I honestly think the one thing that would make Opeth even better is more Hammond organ solos courtesy of Per. Even in Watershed, the guy just doesn't get enough time under the limelight.

I first heard of Opeth in 2004 whilst a member of taboramaforum.com. I remember somebody's signature being a photo of Mikael playing an acoustic guitar and singing, with the 'O' backdrop behind him. Both the awesomeness of the Opeth logo and the awesomeness of Mikael made me want to check them...

I think it'd be a better idea if Opeth maybe played a one-night-only show with a wind ensemble or something. An orchestra would be too overpowering for Opeth, so a wind ensemble would be more subtle but still awesome. It also makes sense since a lot of wind instrumentation was incorporated into...

Me :lol: When everyone was offering him different amounts of money for his t-shirt, I got fed up and yelled "I'LL SUCK YOUR DICK!" "...You will suck my cock"

No, but I was the one that asked him where he got his pants. The guy wears the coolest pants ever, haha. I also prompted him to flip me off by flipping him off first. Homeboy called me lazy and I wasn't having it. He's a fun dude, I wish I could hang out with him and have cheeseburgers.

Amazing performance, amazing setlist, and I was in an amazing spot directly in front of Mikael. I also got a few responses out of him during his talking moments, which was fun. Anyone catch him flipping someone off in the audience? It was me. =[
