Wish List Challenge

[wwallinga]

In a recent thread, I mentioned that this tour would be my 4th time seeing Opeth. However, that didn't seem right to me, so I checked and actually it was my 6th time. No two of these shows were on the same tour.

So I started thinking about which songs I had heard and which I hadn't. I did a little research, made a little Excel file, and created my all-time set list for Opeth. Deliverance appeared the most (5 times) which is no real surprise, followed by Ghost of Perdition and The Baying of the Hounds (both 3 times). Every other song that was played appeared either 2 times or only once.

Next, I looked at all of the songs that I had not heard live. In this list are a few gems that I am dying to hear. What I did for this thread was create a set list of 10 songs from those. Here is what I came up with (in reverse album order):

Burden
Harlequin Forest
Hope Leaves
A Fair Judgment
The Funeral Portrait
Moonlapse Vertigo
Serenity Painted Death
Karma
Epilogue
Advent

How awesome would that set list be? They are all realistic additions to any set list, IMO. I'm sure that it will never happen that I get to hear all 10 of these, but this is my wish list.

So, my challenge to you is to do the same. Create a 10 song set list made entirely of songs you've never heard live before.

 

[Silent Dance With Death]

Harlequin Forest
Burden
To Bid You Farewell
Ending Credits
Hessian Peel
In the Mist She Was Standing
The Moor
Karma
Atonement
Master's Apprentices

Damn, that set list would make me cry.

 

[Blackwater Demon]

Credence
April Ethernal
Forest Of October
Black Rose Immortal
Burden
Hessian Peel
The Moor
Deliverance
Baying Of The Hounds
Karma

then again Iveonlyseen them once. Im including songs Ive seen or heard on live dvds or albums to make it more interesting.

I saw that you've been to all the shows I have, and at one of them, I'm fairly certain they played SPD. It was at the Palladium, I think. The last time they were there.
