As Katatonia's first-ever American tour looms over us, thoughts of what to expect have begun to creep into this fan's mind. With the release of TGCD, Katatonia's sound has of course continued in its steady evolution and this has me wondering. The band has traditionally encored with Murder in the past, but has now replaced even that with a new-era song, thus depleting the setlist of any pre-DO material. The trouble is this: Katatonia has played all of two American dates so far and as such, do you think they'll be inclined to let us hear some older material (if only for the fact that most of the people attending the shows will be seeing Katatonia for the first time ever)? I am overjoyed and indescribably excited to see these guys play, regardless of what material they decide to unleash upon us. However, hearing anything pre-DO would be an extra-succulent treat and I drool even at the possibility thereof. What are your thoughts?
