Proof that Opeth is continuing to develop gayer and gayer fans by the day:

Yeah! oh well.

I'd been to Recher once before years ago to see Type O Negative, the place was smaller than I remembered, but I totally enjoyed the place! the neighborhood was nice, I hung out in the AMC theater lobby across the street for a while to avoid waiting in the line in the sub-freezing temps, and the ability to leave and go to the bar next door for food during the show was quite enjoyable.

Definitely a place I wouldn't mind going back to for future shows.

Overkill is playing there like tomorrow or something. Looks like that place is starting to book more and more metal shows, always a good thing.

The sub-freezing temps did indeed suck, I was just glad they had a coat check at the door (for some reason I didn't think they would, but standing outside without a coat on was NOT an option.

 

[Dark One]

probably because they just don't get to play here all that often; their last 3 tours (incl. this one) have been very different audiences, so they're playing their more well-known stuff so they can afford to keep coming back, you know?

I would agree with this, because again, the stagnation is at least good. For the more educated fans like you and I though, it can indeed get tedious - but at least not quite yet for me.

LMAO @ Erik's rantings

 

[Dark One]

yeah but i have seen them in sweden three times too and the last time they had basically the same setlist as this... very boring. i guess they did "freecard" though...

Hmm... I can definitely see where you're coming from now having that knowledge.

Weak.

The Passion of the Fan.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

I can completely understand that.

Man, I'm glad I pointed out that thread to many readers, it's become a very entertaining read in a *shakes head* way.

Hmm... maybe Sharon was right after all.

 

[Demonspell]

So an Opeth forum newbie thought Dark Tranquillity sucked...who can blame him, with that crap setlist? Just kidding (though it could use some more Gallery and Mind's I), I would love to hear My Negation in particular live. Let the guy be a perpetual dumbfuck and be done with it.
And there is nothing more entertaining than a good old fashioned Bruce rant.

 

[cthulufhtagn]

i love how he kept saying DT have "potential"

 

[Demilich]

I love how he disenfranchisement with the "metal" style of music, then went on to criticize them for something oh-so important as LACK OF FUCKING HEADBANGING!
