Wow - I wanted to resurrect this thread for one sec...
I wasn't a member of this forum when Peter left Opeth - but let me just say the news of his departure floored me!
As much as Mike ably drives this bus, I always felt Peter played a very important part in the band as well...
So imagine my surprise after reading this posting - where it seems a large number of you were saying things like, 'aw, that's too bad - hey, godspeed buddy' and 'oh really? Hmmm.... " and shit like this!
Sure, a few of you seemed shocked like me - but WHAT WAS NOT SHOCKING ABOUT THIS NEWS!?!?
I'm jus sayin is all
