I pre-ordered Watershed,today's the official release date and I still haven't got it.I will be very sombre if it isn't delivered by tommorow!
Because this city sucks, it took me about 45 minutes to wade through the traffic to get to the mall, while it should only have taken about 15 or 20. Cars were basically stopped on the interstate for no apparent reason - ostensibly because of 'road work', but no one was working on the road. Anyway, arrive I finally did...
... And now the (special edition) album is mine! m/ And I can see that I'm going to be listening to this over and over until it sinks in. What a strange album.
Hail to everyone who waited! m/
Traffic was so bad because everyone was out buying Watershed.

Incidentally, I played some for my 60 year old dad, and he liked a lot of it, actually. He said at one point, "That reminds me of Jethro Tull!"
im not sure if someboday posted this. but i though this was funny...
KNAC.COM: Now that you're seen as a "respected musician" are there any other collaborations or projects in the works?
Åkerfeldt: (Laughs) I don't really need collaborations, but I get asked constantly to be part of this project or that. I get asked by people and I'm like "what the fuck, how do you know about us? And why do you like it?" We've been in the business for such a long time that you end up meeting some people you wouldn't normally meet. I got an e-mail from Rick Rubin the other day, just to say hello. I'm hoping it wasn't like a scam, these days you never know (laughs). But it's weird, more people seem to know us than I ever would have imagined. And I guess there are worse problems to have.
