1.Prologue
2.Face of Melinda
3.Bleak
4.Ghost of Perdition
5.To Rid The Disease
6.Blackwater Park
7.When
8.The Lotus Eater
9.Isolation Years
10.Epilogue

I would've picked some tougher tracks if it wasn't about your GF :lol:
You see, I've started with Prologue, for a nice start and a false silent atmosphere, what I see Opeth do a lot, from the time I know them.
Then I've proceed to Face of Melinda, one of Opeth's most awesome ballads, 'cause we don't want to start the album too aggressive now, do we?
I chose Bleak for the third song for it is still not a very heavy song, still more clean vocals than growling and yet it is still the beginning.
Fourth is GoP - on the fourth song you can allow yourself to put a rather stable song, and GoP is a masterpiece, as you probably know :oops:
Fifth (To Rid The Disease) - Actually I must confess that I chose this one only because it would have been pretty damn heavy to have BWP right after GoP, so I thought "why not put a really nice ballad in between?"
Sixth (Blackwater Park) - Awesome song, kicks ass, my personal favourite Opeth track.
Seventh (When) - Just a masterpiece - a bit mellower than BWP (IMO), just in the right extent to mellow the album for the ending.
Eighth (The Lotus Eater) - A little taste of their latest work, very cool song and very complex as well.
Nineth (Isolation Years) - Another beautiful clean-only ballad (My personal favourite Opeth ballad).
Last one - Epilogue. Most beautiful instrumental song I've ever heard, it gives me such goosepox! that's all I can say about it.

Hope I didn't write too much :lol:

If we're going to start making our own set lists, at least make them realistic....
 
Porcelain Heart
Beneath the Mire
Blackwater Park
Windowpane
The Lotus Eater
The Grand Conjuration
The Drapery Falls
Bleak
In my time of Need
Harlequin Forest

Not necessarily a live show, but whatever
 
Possible setlist for the next dvd:heh:

First Set: (1hour)
Coil
Heir Apparent
Lotus Eater
Burden
Porcelain Heart
Hessian Peel
Hex Omega

(intermission)

Second Set: (1 hour)
Godhead's Lament
Serenity Painted Death
Wreath
The Grand Conjuration
(Encore)
Hope Leaves
Demon Of The Fall

The song on the second set are songs they are playing right now or played recently. And mostly songs that were never played on dvd.

:headbang:
 
The perfect setlist:

First set: All of My Arms, Your Hearse in its entirety

* Intermission *

Second set: All of Still Life, in its entirety

First encore: Heir Apparent
Second encore: Deliverance

How could anybody witness that setlist and not go home happy???
