HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU SEEN OPETH?

[ponie]

Totally tedious to put this list together, and no one gives a shit, but something I've been meaning to do anyway.

1. 7/28/2000 -- milwaukee metalfest
2. 4/10/2001 -- jaxx in virginia with amorphis
3. 5/6/2001 -- jaxx in virginia with nevermore
4. 1/21/2003 -- jaxx in virginia with paradise lost and tapping the vein
5. 1/27/2003 -- chicago house of blues with paradise lost and tapping the vein
6. 5/23/2003 -- newport hall, columbus, ohio, with lacuna coil and beyond the embrace
7. 7/21/2003 -- 9:30 club in d.c. with porcupine tree
8. 2/15/2004 -- 9:30 club in d.c. with moonspell and devildriver
9. 11/4/2005 -- jaxx in virginia with nevermore and into eternity
10. 2/17/2006 -- recher theatre in baltimore with devin townsend and dark tranquillity
11. 5/26/2008 -- constitution hall in d.c. with dream theater
12. 10/26/2008 -- rams head live in baltimore with high on fire and baroness

I thought there were more, but I can't find a definitive list of tour dates before 2005.

I missed #7 and #8 but I've been to #9-12 plus Sounds of the Underground in Philly, where they only played three songs You must live near me.

I'm ashamed that I didn't discover them before Blackwater Park. Still Life and MAYH are the best.

 

[Purple Haze]

Still waiting for mine

... plus Sounds of the Underground in Philly, where they only played three songs

Yeah, that's why I skipped that one. I figured it wouldn't be very satisfying.

You must live near me.

Crofton now. Cheverly until 2 years ago. You?

Still Life and MAYH are the best.

I like you already.


edit: nm, I see you're in College Park. (I went to UM!)

 

[ponie]

Yes, in CP to finish my Master's in Education. We'll probably settle in Anne Arundel Co.

Sounds of the Underground was made even more horrendous by the fact that everyone in Philly was hopped up on drugs I can't even identify - and I grew up in Detroit ffs.

To be fair, they played Demon of the Fall, Drapery Falls and Deliverance in Philly iirc.

 

[amarkonthedoor]

I've seen them just once so far, at Gigantour in 2006. They were my favorite performance of that night.

Watershed tour Oct 21 was my first.

Ghost Reveries was my step into Death Metal. I've been careful with my step, this due to Opeth has made my feelers light and very tedious to what I listen to. If i don't like it, do don't listen to it. I'm enjoying Dark Tranquility and katatonia so far though, different but I like.

Can't wait to see the US Tour listing. gonna grab my ticket the second I see the in Orlando or Tampa.
