I just jizzed hopefully they do Manchester hope it does not clash with me going away.

 

[Heckelgruber]

Hope its part of a full tour!

Hope so too, a slightly more southern date would suit me although I might drive to Nottingham if it was the only one...

 

[Molon_uk]

Oh hell yes, I'll be there a good 3 hours in advance, if those crazy people I met last time post here, I shall probably see them in the line.

IM SO THERE

 

[mlefa30]

is this part of a wee UK tour, takin in glasgow too???

hope so..........................................

 

[Ken Lyall]

I'll second that ;-)

 

[affinityband]

Aww i wish they were playin somewhere closer. But Opeth is always like Christmas to me. Id hate to loose out on the oppertunity. Anyone goin to Enslaved in september?

 

[Liquid Diamonds]

I will be the third person to suggest a Glasgow date... Opeth and Paradise Lost are 2 of the best live bands I've seen... to have them on the same bill would be almost orgasmic...

And I want to go see Enslaved in Glasgow, but I haven't got a ticket yet

 

[affinityband]

Id hurry up with it because they will sell out pretty quickly i reckon.

 

[Powers]

Well if they were to go to Nottingham and Glasgow...it would be much easier if they made a stop in Newcastle half way

Hey, Ken, isn't Aberfeldy right by Cairngorm mountains??

 

[Powers]

I've worked this and and I have to say this "officially" the most retarded touring schedual I've ever seen, the dates and locations are good but the order? Who the fuck came up with the order? Seriously did you guys just let Melinda loose on a map of the UK with a crayon?

No offence, it's just really strange, what with you travelling, ultimatly, nearly 1200 miles around the UK when the longest distance between any two points on that bill is less than 400 miles....

Even with excursion to Exeter, going to Southampton, Exeter, London, Birmingham, Nottingham, Manchester, Glasgow, (or, if you wanted to start in Glasgow, doing the exact same route in reverse), would cut the journey nearly in half, 650 miles.

It is about an hours drive from here due west.
Aberfeldy is the centre of mainland Scotland, 'famous' for the 'birks of Aberfeldy' a walk full of birch tree's and is a poem by Rabbie Burns.
The nearest Mountains are Scheihallion and Lawers. It is also on the longest river in the country, River Tay, with one of the best Lochs, Loch Tay 6 miles west at Kenmore.
Anyhow, enough of the tourist stuff already.
Worth a visit I'd say

yes, I think Ive passed it while on a hicking trip in Scotland this winter. LOVELY place! Ashame, you don't get that many gigs there.
As to the tour schedule- YES, it is weird as hell.

Ayr i was lookin at some photos you took at Oxford and you got a picture of my friend jonny and the twat on drugs....Thats about as exciting as my evening got

No we don't get many gigs here
Headlining in the town hall this year is a band called 'Aberfeldy', from Edinburgh.
Perth is close and they occasionally get some decent stuff, Morrisey was there last year and van morrison last week.
Glasgow is the place to be for the best, ie opeth, PT, Anathema etc.
