Oh I wish! All my friends are going (almost), but this is the only negative side of having children; no festivals for me.

You are a good father. My drunkard shithead daddy wouldn't have thought twice of ditching his family for booze and partayyyh or something.
 
I seriously doubt this...and I doubt that special setlist. That was just a story to bring fans to concert. I'm pretty sure Antti just learned these songs they performed on last two concerts, so this will mainly be their setlist until the release of new album.
 
Organizers of the concert made a vote of 20 songs, 10 of which were in the end of the set list. Well, as the organizers said, the musicians still would add a number of songs. These are the 10 songs that fans have chosen. I'm not very happy with this choice, but the choice was not particularly out of nothing. Nothing, and old and rare in the list was not.

1) Are You Dead Yet?
2) Everytime I die
3) Lake Bodom
4) Dead Man's Hand on You
5) Downfall
6) In Your Face
7) Angels Don't Kill
8) Needled 24/7
9) Living Dead Beat
10) Silent Night, Bodom Night

Probably not in this given order?

Sure there are reasons why the order of songs is played in specific way (what feels natural, rarities vs 'hits', no guitar change between every song, logical continuation in the flow of energy vs contrast surprise, not too many fast songs back to back for the drummer...) but COB could spice up their show just by bravely changing the order of songs. Why not start with Angels or Halo, followed by Downfall or ETID, etc. I'm not giving this too much thought now, but I mean, start the next tour with Knuckleduster, that one would actually work as opener, I think. It creates suspense, tensity, and is satisfying in heaviness and hooks, despite not everyone knowing it.
 
Thank you! Too bad Alexi decided to play like shit, Antti played his leads 10 times cleaner :(
 
Part of it is the stream, but Alexi's live guitar tone is bad. It is so brittle and needs some gain. Specifically, a tube screamer in the signal chain would probably do wonders.
 
It's not about the tone, he just plays bad for whatever reason. Listen to this: https://youtu.be/a-oFnogjHxE?t=18m16s - his hands are desynchronized, picking the wrong strings. I would've expected Alexi to be in a better shape, having just had a lot of practice for the recording.
