while a part of me admires this attempt to cross pollinate art forms, another part of me thinks it is either 1) really pretentious or 2) just plain bad idea.
Seeing how Opeth's very sophisticated audience spent Tapping the Vein's entire set yelling "show us your tits", at their female vocalist, I'd say this has the potential for serious ugliness.
LOL - probably. Anyway it's only for one song and not a whole set or anything - and the NYC show was initially billed with no opening band, so who knows what kind of gimmick this is or who came up with it?

I'm gonna see Opeth w/ DT and the Devin band. I'm pissed that I missed the Nevermore and Pelican legs, but as was already pointed out, I should be glad I'm not getting Devildriver.
