Opeth live

[Goober]

Whaddya know, another question by me. Anywho, I've been wondering, Was it just for the Lamentations DVD that they only played damnation, deliverance, and blackwater park songs? Or do they normally play some from MAYH and Still life also?

from the FAQ. you know, the thing that says READ FIRST.

Why does the Lamentations DVD only have songs from the last 3 albums?

Their label, Music For Nations would have had to pay licensing fees to whichever labels own the intellectual rights to Opeth's old catalogue. Since the DVD was mainly a promotional tool, MFN didn't see a need to exert themselves and promote a catalogue that didn't belong to them.

... knob.

my bad. I did in fact read it before, but i forgot

...and now MFN are no more. Maybe roadrunner will let them play their old stuff if they ever make another dvd.

If they already have signed with RR, I'm pretty sure they'll have another dvd coming up very soon.
