I for one, am happy to hear they're playing Windowpane. At the same time, I'm not happy to hear that, because I don't like knowing the setlist beforehand! Damn Opeth forum...
I'm glad they are playing Windowpane on tour. This way all those mosh pit freaks with homemade Slayer tattoos might go to a Marilyn Manson concert instead. Don't get me wrong, I love straight up growling metal, but I can also hear talent when its right in front of my face. Most people that would boo or throw crap during Windowpane have never picked up an instrument or actually "listened" to music.
yeah when i saw opeth at gigantour he said that and later he said "this next song is about getting fucked up the ass!" right before playing deliverance. i asked someone and he said mike was making a reference to an old movie with jon voight called deliverance where some dude gets ass raped...yeah..mike's a funny guy...knows his movies too..
To all those who dislike Damnation ~ Try and listen to it as an album NOT by Opeth. Compare it to other similar prog stuff instead of Still Life or My Arms Your Hearse. You'll see how much it pwns after you've categorized it well in your head first.
