Opeth unplugged ever?

[lammoth]

have they ever done an unplugged concert??
i mean its an awesome song, considering they have so many mellow songs, and many of there heavier songs sound awesome when played with 2 acoustic guitars...( try out the riffs in any BWP song unplugged on your guitar, ull get what i mean)
so if it hasnt happenned yet, mikael please take note and add an unplugged gig to your next tour (also release it in DVD )

Yeah I was thinkin about that the other day, it would be very good.

Fixed.

Good idea.

Why not, but not the heavier songs, growling and acoustic guitars don't fit for some reason.

 

[FRUGiHOYi]

They've done shows where they only played songs from Damnation. I know they weren't technically unplugged, but the term tends to also be used in such situations (ex: Nirvana Unplugged). But to play their heavy songs unplugged is a terrible idea IMO and it's a cliche that Opeth must never partake in.

They should try playing Wreath unplucked.

Perhaps they could sing the growling parts clean instead; they could make up new clean-singing melodies for those parts maybe not, would probably sound funny... but still, it's an idea, isn't it?

 

[Noel]

I don't think they will do it anyway.



*hopes to be wrong*

 

[{-sapob-}]

This would be pretty great.

Id love to hear an acoustic version of one of their heavys.

Im sure they could edit some to be without screaming.
Thinking about it I reckon it would sound a bit Doomy.
Maybe "acoustic doom"

haha no...nearly impossible....as far as getting it to sound good goes....

THE MOOR UNPLUGGED

I remember reading somwhere that Mike usually writes his songs w/ an acoustic guitar so eventually the heavy songs still sound good unplugged

 

[mexicola]

They should do a DVD of that shit.

Really? I've been doing the same thing for the past two years because I don't have an electric guitar available to me

I used to, now I use acoustic, electric and bass guitar, except that I've got no distortion...

 

[DarkGift]

perhaps we at last would get to hear still day beneath the sun and patterns in the ivy II if they would do such a thing, go unplugged!

that'd be awesome, turn the growls into melodies.

 

[hexwind]

Or maybe Per can play growling on Keyboard with some nice effects instead of vocals?

 

[Hox]

They should make Mendez do the growling. On bass.

 

[Ghost Of Mother]

Growls with acoustic
