We missed both supports because some stupid people died on the motorway... idiots!
Yup, that was pretty damn good. Shame they had to cut Bleak but apart from that, top stuff.
Mikael played a little guitar bit, and then sang a bit and then asked us what it was. The reply was mainly 'erm?' and his response was 'It was Judas Priest, you cunts'. That was quite a good moment.
What the fuck is wrong with you ?

I hate to complain but I thought the sound mixing for Opeth was pretty awful - really messy, snare sounded horrible, vocals didn't sound right either. Probably just shitty Carling Academy acoustics...
other than that it was king.
Being English maybe? You tell me!![]()
Oh, and the idiots in question may not have died, they may have just been injured, (maybe they can get lobotomies or something whilst they're in hospital) so all is rosy and wonderful in the South West this morning! Maybe.
Yeah, Hope Leaves sounded pretty bizarre for some reason... sounded like there was a lot of improvisation at the end too!
^^^^
Agreed. I thought his solo at the end of Hope Leaves was extremely tasty..the complete opposite of shred in fact...
it wasn't shred in it's literal sense. it was just a generic sounding metal solo. IMO it just didn't suit the song particularly.

I guess that's the beauty of music or any type of art...we all hear or see things differently..to me, that solo had more in common with Dave Gilmour with the type of bends Fred played. Anyways, still a killer gig!
