Aside for the ridiculous prices for a beer, I didn't want to leave my girlfriend alone in the middle of the audience. I don't want a bunch of loser Dream Theater fans hitting on her. The sound was pretty bad and I also thought there would be one or two openers but I guess Opeth didn't want their asses handed to them by a bunch of locals. <br /><br />I was actually just to the right of the soundboard (when facing the stage) if you have moved maybe ten or fifteen feet more to the right you would have seen me. Oh well. Always next time.Orionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06434070510965701360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564185814095508762.post-50511508977664627592009-05-10T10:37:00.000-07:002009-05-10T10:37:00.000-07:00It was a tough show for me....I couldn't believe t...It was a tough show for me....I couldn't believe there wasn't at least one or two local openers...I never expected to see Enslaved so early. I didn't even have time to have a couple of beers in the parking lot before hand :-( So I was way at the back by the sound guys... it was tough to even see the band. The mix was not good. I enjoyed the Amon Amarth show much more.Isiamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168453233255768449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564185814095508762.post-3193750100023023592009-05-09T21:50:00.000-07:002009-05-09T21:50:00.000-07:00Yeah, I'm basically at the same point in terms of ...Yeah, I'm basically at the same point in terms of their output as well. I love Opeth's early stuff but their last few recent albums have really rubbed me the wrong way. I will continue to go see them until I see them play Advent and April Ethereal. After that, I'll call it quits. What did you think of Enslaved? I enjoyed them though I wish their sound was just a bit better mixed.Orionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06434070510965701360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564185814095508762.post-87714530093901000342009-05-08T08:35:00.000-07:002009-05-08T08:35:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Isiamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168453233255768449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-564185814095508762.post-59918081063950664902009-05-08T08:34:00.000-07:002009-05-08T08:34:00.000-07:00Hey man,

I was shocked to find out that Enslaved went on so early...I came in during the first song only because the parking lot attendent told me the first band had started already....I only stayed for Enslaved's set then I went home, I've given up on Opeth these days....Isiamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00168453233255768449noreply@blogger.com
