lol why do you think per and axe are gonna be at the lego store?
 
hahahah I saw Peter twice walking through downtown disney and the members of dark tranquillity.. I was like WOO!

DAMN GOOD SHOW. we got demon of the fall instead of deliverance. :)
I actually stood in the very front for the first time..
AND I POSESS THE GUITAR PICK PETER USED FOR DEMON OF THE FALL :D
 
Just got home.

Sound was pretty bad at the start, fixed to about average by the third song.

Axe was solid. Under the Weeping Moon was a great highlight.

Same ol' setlist with Demon at the end. Pretty good setlist.

*edit for the setlist sticklers*

Ghost of Perdition
White Cluster
The Amen Corner
Baying of the Hounds
Closure
Under the Weeping Moon
The Grand Conjuration
The Drapery Falls
--
Demon of the Fall

I had fun.

gz i totally got a stomach sickness these couple of days. i hope i can still make it out tonight.

Ouch, that sounds awful... :erk:

So, did you make it?
I do hope you did!!
 
yeah thanks Riffboy, i got better for the show thanks to God, and i totally enjoyed it. what a great night. i was disappointed they didnt play "When" and they totally could've substituted "the Drapery Falls" with "the Leper Affinity" but other than that it was really good. I was impressed with Axenrot as well. After all the crap he's been getting from the board members, i expected him to be a lot worse than he was. Yeah, hes no Lopez, but he sure as hell tore up the drumkit very nicely last night. Very impressive.:rock:

btw, eating Buffalo wings and watching Opeth has to be the koolest thing EVER:kickass:
 
I see... Well great that you made it!
But no "Deliverance"?
(I would have wanted to hear that song if I was there too! ...but at least I got that cd in the mail this Monday!)
 
White Cluster, Closure, and Under the Weeping Moon were the shit! I really liked Axe's changes to Closure too; he is the man! It was a great concert. I wish they would have played something else besides Demon for the encore though. That's getting old. I thought it would be either that or Deliverance, Blackwater Park, or the Leper Affinity. I think any of those would have been way better. There was a really annoying kid with a mohawk and I wanted to slit his throat. I was hanging around to talk to Opeth after the show, but I ended up having to take my friend home (he had to get up at 5am today). When I got back, only Peter and Mendez were still hanging around and they were about to leave. Still, I got my Lamentations signed by both of them and I got a picture with Peter which this lady will hopefully email to me!

Under the Weeping Moon was AMAZING! Agreed, I was actually hoping for Deliverance as the encore instead of Demon, but regardless it's still a badass song. Yes, I wanted to kill that kid, I think I got a few good elbow shots on him a few times. I was up front probably 5-6 people back more towards the Mendez side of the stage.

I didn't hang around long enough, cause I had a 2 hour drive ahead of me and I didn't want to fall asleep on the way home, but I did see the bassist from DT as I was leaving.
 
This was a great show. I was at the front of the balcony upstairs & the sound was perfect. People of Orlando are lucky to have a venue like this. When Opeth visits my area they usually play at the terrible Palladium. The HoB was modern & had lots of great viewing spots. They also had lots of bars & bathrooms with a guy who gives you soap & towels to dry up. Yes it was very fancy. I almost forgot this was a metal show. I still can't believe how nice this place was. We also showed up a few hours before the show & ate at the restaurant. We were given a skip the line pass & we ended up being about 15th in line to get in. Another great thing was the bar right next to the line.

Under The Weeping Moon was the musical highlight of the night. It was so nice to hear an Orchid track !

They also threw in a little Zeppelin "No Quarter" which was cool.

After the show we waited for an hour or two to meet the band. 1st I met and got some auto's from a couple of the Dark Tranquility dudes. They were pretty cool.

A little later I finally got my chance to meet Martin, then Mike & finally Peter. They were all really cool & signed my ticket stub. I also got a bunch of pics with them all which hopefully the very nice lady frugihoyi mentioned will send me. My women & I must have gotten 10 pictures with them. They were as advertised very friendly & talked with us for a while. This topped off what was an awesome night for me.

I can't wait to see them again. If they visit the HoB next time, I'll probably make the trip again.

I'm so pissed I didn't go. even moreso now. they played No Quarter during UTWM? I hope someone recorded that show.

yeah, we did that too. except we had to spend 20 dollars each at the HOB store. we were about 5th in line. i've seen 4 shows there and i never knew about that =/
 
psshh forget about having to get stuff to get in the front of the line, just push yourself to the front of the stage once the show starts...cmon be metal lol
