Your Concert List

I agree with Jolty. The concert I went to was really great and not jumping around on the stage doesn't make them arrogant.

What did turn me off is the numerous times he would stare at the crowd and just say "You love us don't you?" Even if it was meant to be a joke, I found that annoying.

Maybe it's because it was during Gigantour and they already had done too many shows and simply got bored but the problem is that they were the same way during their tour with DT in 2006.
 
Mikael Akerfeldt might as well be a stand-up comedian because I think he is one of the funniest bastards I've ever seen on stage.
There was actually a thread once on the Opeth forum about Mike talking and joking too much on stage. Mike actually posted on that one and basically told everyone that he didn't give a fuck and then made a gay joke about himself or something haha. I'll try to post a link for it later.
 
um....I am a little jealous of you guys.

here is my list:
testament
arch enemy
dark tranquillity

ok ,you can laugh at me now.=:ill:and arch enemy was deleted from my list forever.:puke:
 
Here is my list, for what I recall at the moment.

EDIT: On Opeth, I have seen them 6 or 7 times and never thought of them as full of themselves. Boring stageshow I suppose; but I don't go to concerts for their stageshows. I go for the music. Perhaps Mike's dry sense of humor was misinterpreted as arrogance...

They are on my, "bands I would love to see, but probably never will" list.
What are they like live?

I saw them during the "Invasione dell'Italia" tour, back in 2003, when they opened the shows for DT...I agree with Nt3N, lots of energy, they were good...and opinions I got from friends who were to more recent concerts confirm that. I can also guess their live expertise must have grown during these years:headbang:

I don't know about going to the shows, but typing that list cost you minutes you could have spent with your loved one watching a romantic sunset on the beach. We encourage this kind of choice because ultimately we would like to swallow your soul.
