Back from Athens and PT rocked!

[godmachine12]

Holy shit! Was anyone else at this show? They were amazing. More than I even expected. They sounded so good. I'll give the setlist a shot no order though:

Blackest Eyes
Gravity Eyelids
Sound of Music
Hatesong
Fade Away
Russia On Ice
Even Less
Pure Narcotic
Wedding Nails
Heartattack In A Layby
Trains
Strip the Soul

Shit it was awesome. They played a few more, but dont' remember what. They played one from 'The Sky Moves Sideways' and one from 'Signify' I believe. All in all, awesome show, got a shitload of pics, signed stuff, and the band were super fuckin' cool after the show. If only Opeth were there it would have been 100% perfect.

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

One of the songs at the end may have been Tinto Brass, they played that over here at least

And PT was amazing when i saw them too. They are a class act!!!

 

[Demonspell]

They did Fadeaway...now there's a surprise, the first in a long series of melancholic album closers...the rest of the set of course looks awesome...four more days...

John Wesley sang it though, but he did a good job. Wesley actually "opened" the show. The original opening act didn't show, so he came out and played an acoustic set. Played some Floyd covers which ruled. Guy can sing. They played "Futile" also. It was awesome.

[Sóti]

did they sell the XM disc thier?

 

[Demonspell]

John Wesley is cool, and he adds tremendously to their touring lineup...you can hear some of his own music at mp3.com.

 

[godmachine12]

Multiple replies here. Yes, the XM disc is for sale. It was $20 I believe, but I didn't buy it. Opeth wasn't there because this was one of the shows they played by themselves. And yes Wesley does add a lot to there show. His backing vox were excellent as was his playing.

Wesley sang lead vocals on fadeaway at the show I went to, and I must say, he should really stick to backup.

 

[Demonspell]

Does anyone know exactly how limited the XM disc is?

Im still pissed Opeth didnt play with PT. Mikeal said they would be back in GA with them. Guess he spoke too soon.

If this makes you feel better, Steven said after the show they hoped to come back in the fall and hopefully hit Atlanta. I asked him if they'd come with Opeth and he just grinned and said "I dunno about that". Have hope.
