Should Anathema play pre eternity stuff live?

I think it's understandable them not playing older songs live. They've done it so many times in the past maybe they've kinda bored with 'em, you know? And off course when playing in the band the most recent stuff is usually the most precious to you.

I wanna hear the demos too :)

AND Iron Maiden, Hallowed be thy name, Run to the Hills, Number of the Beast, The Trooper, am I forgetting some songs

BUT I want to see them reduced, so they perhaps play Powerslave and Clairvoyant and Infinite Dreams... (the Rime? but it's quite long, maybe that one instead of Sign of the Cross) :(
I would like to see the Number of the Beast and Iron Maiden out of their playlist... but it's fuckin don't gonna happen :mad:
Argh, Don you began with Maiden ;)

Yes but we did! Every time you watch Maiden you know what you'll get and tha pisses me off! Can't they stop playing Run to the Hills and Trooper and Wrathchild all the time? Don't get me wrong I love these songs but you got to change things every now and then... It gets boring and predictable...
 
we have to accept bands play their 'classics':
Moonspell won't forget Alma Mater and Opium
The Gathering will do Strange Machines & Nighttime Birds
Clawfinger does Do what I say and Warfair

so does other bands
and it's good to see Anathema plays a few of their classics each show, but I want to see a longer list of them, including Sleepless, Alternative 4, Kingdom (the pianoversion :eek: ) and few others
 
Excellent, glad to see im not alone in wanting some older stuff too, the first two times i saw them they played a dying wish and sleepless, back in 98, then on the last tour they still played a dying wish and played sleepless at least once, but not this year:cry:

They finished there set with some strange mellow jamming session and left... I expected them to come back and play a dying wish, or at least empty.... but no such luck......:cry:
 
to be honest, we cant be bored of playing songs from the silent enigma and stuff because we havent done it for years. i really want to try sunset of age, shroud of frost,and piano versions of songs like kingdom,we the gods and they die. anyone who's seen us this week will know we have been doing the silent enigma on piano bass and drums. and that one is a winner!! duncan has requested the songs that he has written on his own, like eternity and lost control, should be left for him to play with antimatter. although i miss these songs in anathema setlist, i can understand it. luckily for me i got to play them anyway with antimatter. which was ace. hail patto and the boy moss. the paris bootleg i got is fucking smart. the power of love..what a version that is. ship of fools and celtic stuff with sean...life is looking up!
 
Nice that you cleared the thing with Duncan's songs Danny. I thought you just wouldn't play them not that Dunc asked you to do so... Cheers. And come down here soon!!!
 
Me too. But I'm afraid I'll be a bit dissapointed cos I really like the original version... Have to wait and see....
