haha, mikael needs a new script for each concert, I think he's said the same jokes every show.

I'm hoping this isn't a sign that opeth is taking a turn for the worse, at least the album doesn't show it, thankfully!

I'm just waiting for them to be in USA Today or some drivel like that.

Eh, this is partially ruined because of forums/reviews. I mean, I think death metal and head banging lessons are funny as hell...and I would be disappointed if other fans did not get to experience that. It was a great part of the show. The Burt Reynolds thing, it fits, and fits well. I have no problem with him repeating himself during the tour because he is trying to make the show as enjoyable for everyone as possible. I would not ask for him to change a thing for I much prefer that to the "How are you fucking doing? I can't fucking here you! I need you fuckers to fucking tear this place a-fucking-part! Fuck! METAL!" (unless we are talking about Devin from Strapping Young Lad...he can say whatever the hell he wants)

Let's start again, and this time if we're ornery, let's not participate in the thread.

at least it was a positive review

Mike is a nice guy. He doesn't like to insult his fans. He's always been this way, which means that Opeth aren't changing.

I think they also should work on putting up a different set list each show. It gets boring when I keep hearing about people witnessing the same songs. I can understand that they probably don't have time to practice all of their songs, but if they ever get a chance, it would be awesome to add to their repertoire.

Well... I'm pretty sure that most of the jokes/discussions with the audience in Stockholm weren't used on any other concert, or at least not anywhere outside of Sweden.

do you want that to happen, so you can make fun of it?

I obviously DON'T want it to happen, because then I'd be disgusted.
