Ok, I sneaked backstage after the show and met Akerfeldt and other guys. I had given the posters to mike right before the soundcheck, when they walked out of a pub and into the venue.

So, when I came in the dressing room, and found the posters lying on the floor, I asked them if they liked those. They said did:

Frederik, who is by far the nicest guy on earth, told me that he especially liked the one with gay bar and Mike & Mendez. I can't argue with that!

I asked Mendez if he had seen that one before and he said he did.. I also asked frederik which one he was in the glam rock band, and he told me he was the second dude from the right. I thanked him, and got this signed for myself. I've got everybody's signature on it.

I also asked Mendez and Fred why they didn't ever post on the forums and Martin went "What forum? Oh, that one in the picture? I go there sometimes, but I don't post. I just read." and Fred said "I read there often, but I don't post either. Maybe I should.."

I said: "You definetely should, everyone just loves it when Mikael posts. We'd like to see you there."

Anyway, that's about it.

Cheers.

I also got my guitar signed by the Akerfeldt himself, but the dude who told me to get it signed with a permanent marker forgot to tell me that I had to roughen the surface beforehand, it seems that's the only way the clear coat sticks to the surface. So it might come off soon, but I'm going to see if I can get a 'golpeador' on there to make it last forever..


EDIT: I have a scanner that's for A4 paper, I had to attach the two images.

Here's the full story.

By the way, left to right: Per, Frederik, Mikael, Mendez, Axenrot
 
Damn great story dude !! thank you for sharing, I actually shivered and get some kinda tears when you were describing those moments coz i had the same when I met Anathema (but they didn't play for some reasons) and it's a fucking great moment !!!!! Lucky you dude :D
 
Great story! I didn't know the rest of the band visits the forum too.
To keep the signature on your guitar, you should buy some clear coat and shoot a coat over it, then buff it to a shine. Some coats dissolve marker ink though, I'd try it out on another surface first to make sure that doesn't happen.

Some clearcoat sprays also dissolve the original paint of the guitar. It all comes down to compatibility...
 
So, I can just apply a clear coat over a shiny guitar body and it will stick?
The signature is written with a White Sharpie. It's the exact same as the white one there.

I'm sorry, I posted it on my account page, and tried to see if I could get that page without logging in. It worked when I tried it, and I think a bunch of guys from here read it too.. I could send it to you in a PM.

Or maybe I should just start another thread... Yeah, I'm starting another thread.

I'm IP banned :mad: Any forum where you get banned for saying "fag" isn't a worthy forum anyway.
 
^ I did that once. I was criticising the "The Day That Never Comes" music video which is stupid, meaningless and cheesy. I somehow finished with "If you disagree, you are gay.". I got banned for a month I think.. Still, the people there are nice enough, if you don't count the moderators.
 
I called Scary Guy a fag and got IP banned :( I got there a few months ago and all the people I liked were gone :mad: That forum made me appreciate Samsara a lot :lol:
