watching the "harvest" video (Opeth)

[ether]

Yesterday I bought the re-release of Black Water Park, the one featuring bonus tracks and a video.
I really enjoyed this "documentary" video showing the Opeth guys in the studio not only during the recording sessions, but also during breaks (Mike playing play station or table tennis...).
I realized after all that these talented musicians are just people like us, I mean, I already knew that, but it was nice to see them outside the strictly musical context, joking, laughing and so on.
After all I think that band members, after spending so much time together, are "forced" to become good friends.
It would be nice to see a "behind the courtains" documentary about Katatonia as well. What do you think?

No they aren't. They're Gods, regardless of how much table tennis they play.

Yeah, that would be cool. Especially if they had some home video footage from the early days...Anders and Jonas in corpsepaint, with chainsaws and axes. Or maybe some footage from gigs, studio recordings etc. I wonder if they actually taped anything themselves or had people film them.
