Withdrawl is setting in.....

[MixGrafix]

I have awoken this morning with the realization that Opeth is not going to be playing any US gigs in the near future. I just wish that everyone that is reading this post has had the chance to see them live.

To everyone in Europe that is having second thoughts about seeing them because of Axe, drop that bias, and see one of the most amazing bands ever live.

what good music festivals are there in america?

 

[Larsson]

Im seeing them April 16.

Im also seeing Evergrey and Amon Amarth the same day.

Yes, it's always tough letting go of a good thing. The good news is that they will be back again & again. I think they've done 7 US tours in the last 3 years. We are very lucky to see them so often. Other parts of the world never see them.

I remember the 1st time I saw them wasn't very busy. Now it seems like they come close to selling out every venue. They are very close to becoming sellouts. Like Jason Newsted said once "yes we are sellouts, we sell out every show every night". Pretty soon Opeth will be the same way & not because they changed their music to get on the radio, but because all of us fans appreciate what an awesome band they are.

I know. I thought about that after I returned from the Orlando show. I am so close to going to a festival overseas to see them again.

I saw them in November, twice in March. I need more!

 

[JoeVice]

well, just think of it this way. a new album is in the somewhat near future, now that touring is coming to a close.

 

[batastrophe]

^ Very true.

[Led Opeth]

i want to go to europe in the summer to see em, but i dont think thats happening lol

 

[xXBraveMurderDay]

If U.S. is Lucky, maby this winter Opeth will return. Bay Area California missed them on their second Ghost Reveries tour.

 

[bloodlust rampant]

yeah, if i'm lucky they will come by texas on the next tour when i'm done with high school.

 

[Weakness]

Looks like Opeth is booked solid until Oct. 2006. Almost two years on the road.

 

[bloodlust rampant]

yeah hopefully for opeth's sake they take that rest during the winter. i'd rather see a rested 'peth than a tour exhausted one.

1 year and about a month or two.
