"Well, finally finished the European tour. I have to say this is the most successful Euro tour we've ever done in terms of attendance. Almost every gig we did was completely sold out, most of them in advance which is amazing! Thank you so much for coming out to see us again. I mean, if you want us, we'll be there. Like a hot blanket in the cold, or a chilled Corona on a hot beach...whatever!
"I'm feeling a lot better now [after a bout with laryngitis earlier in the week]. I've stopped taking my steroids and will finish the antibiotics thingie on Sunday, I believe. Trying to cut down on the nasal spray. Fucking addictive that shit!
"The last two shows in Stockholm went alright. My voice obviously not in top form but I managed to pull through. Lots of people coming, both sold out and GREAT response! Tack mina vänner! Melinda [one of Mikael's daughters] and my wife went to the second show and Melinda fell asleep during the second song. Bound to be a rough critic when she grows up, I suppose.
"We'll rest for a while; well deserved I think. Then on the 16th me and Fred [OPETH guitarist Fredrik Åkesson] are flying over for the USA NAMM fair in Anaheim, CA to sign some autographs at the PRS stand. Obviously, then in late January we have the India gig which will be fun.
"A new setlist has been discussed and it omits every song we played on the last tour apart from one, so it'll be pretty cool I think. Some of me personal favourite songs will be dusted off. Hard shit to play though...I gotta practise!
"As for now, I just want to thank you (on behalf of the band) again for your support. We love ya! I love ya! Hope you'll cum out and see us again soon!
"I celebrate X-mas for all the wrong reasons. I just want to eat good, buy shitloads of gifts for my kids and my wife and get maybe a little buzzed on some Aalborg snaps or something. There are no religious motives for us celebrating that day here, but we all kinda dig it for the complete consummation orgy that it is. Once a year it's fine...
"So, I also wanna say Merry X-mas to you all as well and a Happy new year! Don't make no new years resolutions...WASTE of TIME! Promise yourselves to take care of your vices, get fit or whatever when you're not fucked up. Just a little piece of advice for ya!"
