Opeth in Calgary?

Yes, they are playing tonight. Well, at least, so far they are supposed to. Unless something comes up till the evening.

OPETH Cancel Edmonton Date, Reschedule For Two Days Later - Jan. 21, 2004

Sweden's OPETH were forced to cancel their date in in Edmonton (Canada) on Tuesday, January 20 due to one of their members falling ill. However, they have rescheduled a new date for Thursday, January 22 at Red's.

OPETH are in the middle of a North American tour with MOONSPELL and DEVILDRIVER. The group's next show will take place Wednesday (January 21) at Macewan Hall in Calgary.

Thankyou! I'm stuck here between classes at school. Where did you see this? I'm watching all the forums, but the last information I saw was that Mikael and Peter showed up to sign autographs, around midnight.

Today should be the single greatest night of my life.
 
I called Mac Hall a few minutes ago and as far as they know, the show is still on.

Man, if the show is cancelled, I will freak!!

I'm the tall bastard with the long-sleeve BLS shirt. Feel free to say hello!!

See ya there......
 
Good newz

I just got off the phone with the people at Mac Hall and they say the show is still ago!! *happy dance* :rock:
 
me and mofoism will be driving up to calgary in a couple of hours, if opeth isnt playing im going ot be pissed!!!


if you see us say hi, im a tall red head dude and mofo has long hair and will be sporting a pantera hoodie most likely, haha what accurate descriptions!
 
I think I'll be wearing my Slaughter of the Soul shirt, until I buy an Opeth one.

Was the opeth DVD available at the edmonton show last night? Does the band have tour t-shirt made for this Lamentations tour?

See ya there.
 
Yep, I just got off the phone with Greg (Mac Hall) and he confirmed Opeth will be doing a revised set. Apparently, their drum tech knows only a few of their songs so they will be playing some pure acoustic songs as well (no drums). They are going to do the best that they can.

They also said that if they have to cut the set short, they will be refunding a percentage of ticket costs at the door. Personally, I think they should keep the coin.

Thanks for coming to Calgary!!
 
Good to hear they are still playing, I was getting scared there for a while (I'm glad I checked this board for news).

It's still going to be a good show, but I would rather have heavy Opeth over acoustic Opeth any day.

Hope they come back to Alberta some day and make up for it (especially for Edmonton, who are getting totally screwed).

No DVD yet.. they had promo brochures for it though, the DVD's still on for February 24. They had T-Shirts... I dunno if they were official tour t shirts.. I think they were.

bad news..

hey but still it's better than cancelling the whole tour.

I wish Lopez gets well very quick and joins the band next week or something..

and if they have to cut the set short, they should keep the money. they deserve every single money they get.
