Why the hell was Jonas in the back!!!!

[Illnath]

So I went to see Katatonia last night, and the concert was great, and I was jumping up and down like a crazy motherfucker...But why the hell did Jonas stand all the way in the back of the stage....The Drummer Was closer to the audience than he was

I think he explained it to the audience, maybe you didn't hear, the sound was fucked up and the only way they could solve it was by letting him stand there.

I wondered about that as well, but i thought it was quite cool actually. A bit unusual, but in a good way.
This was my 4th time seeing Katatonia and by far the best.
On the other three occasions Jonas vocals has been quite poor, but last night he (finally) proved that he could pull it off live as well.

The sound in the first couple of songs was a bit muddy, but the sound guy eventually changed it and made it sound very good.

Jonas, Anders and Daniel all rocked, but Fred and Mattias were just standing there and were IMO boring to look at.

Only one more complaint, "Murder" (which was the closer) didn't fit in at all.
It was a bit of an anticlimax to the rest of the set.

Apart from that it was still a very good concert.

If you're still waiting to see Katatonia on this tour - then be excited!

How can Murder be an anticlimax

I'm glad to hear it's in the setlist again.

"Murder" (which was the closer)

really?

 

[affinityband]

Murder is an amazing way to end a show.

 

[kim larsen]

But completely out of place.

 

[Migs]

But completely out of place.

I gotta agree with you, it's not a good closer, in particular when you have such an emotional song like "evidence" before it.
But it may be a great way for the band to re-enter the stage after the break

 

[ciccio12]

Only one more complaint...

Bloody hell! on top of the other 37? Were you there to mark the gig or something? Besides, they play it because that is the song that the REAL fans consider a climax.

 

[Discouraged+One]

i dont like murder as a closer, i prefer evidence....period

 

[jptk]

Shit! I was hoping to hear murder at the london gig but sadly it was not played.

 

[Keltoi]

"Murder" is an "anti-climax"?.........now I've heard it all

 

[kim larsen]

because that is the song that the REAL fans consider a climax.

 

[stefan86]

Heh. Those who dislike "Murder" should've switched place with me to the disappointing Stockholm gig instead.

 

[ether]

murder is one of the best closer ever.
Evidence was ok, but nothing is better than "murder"!

 

[stefan86]

Word. "Murder" simply is teh shit

 

[LifeDepraved]

They need to close with Brave...Murder...ENDTIME! Ha you guys thought I was gonna say 12...Proved you all wrong.

 

[stefan86]

Anything from BMD would do

 

[LifeDepraved]

Well I wouldn't mind if they played the whole DODS album backwards. Just put some nice oldies in the set. And come to America KPLZTHX!!!

 

[Metamyr]
