[QUOTE="the_reverend:14944"]The venue: The sound at this venue was pristine. I swear, it could have been recorded the whole show for a live CD it sounded so good. This is not that surprising as the place is an orchestra performance center. You could hear everything that the audience and the band was saying. Thankfully, the audience was transfixed and did not talk while the bands were playing. Opeth: Wow, what a show. The whole 1:20 minute set was over so quickly. Opeth at a sit-down event on their concept tour for their new “quiet” CD [I]Damnation[/I]. They started off playing the new CD cover to cover: 1. Windowpane 2. In my time of need 3. Death whispered a lullaby 4. Closure 5. Hope leaves (mikael admitted his favorite) 6. To rid the disease 7. Ending credits 8. Weakness The crowd yelled out things in between songs like “Slayer” and different Opeth request. At one point, Mikael (singer) jokingly threaten to play “More than words” by Extreme if the crowd didn’t stop yelling out requests. The Martin Lopez (Drums) would egg the crowd on by playing bits of the Leper Affinity and Deliverance between songs. Starting with Ending Credits, the band left the stage and Mikael Åkerfeldt sat on a stool with just an acoustic guitar, playing the last two tracks. After which, the rest of the band came out for the rest of their tracks: 9. benighted (still life) 10. to bid you farewell (morningrise) 11. soldier of fortune (deep purple cover) 12. face of melinda (still life) The set was amazing because it was unlike any other tour of any other set list that Opeth has ever done. They were switching guitars all the time and even though they said “it was to look cool”, they needed to switch for the amazing range of songs that they performed. Porcupine Tree: weird that they set was “harder” than Opeth, but it was. Their set was pretty awesome and was mesmerizing if not only for the fact that there was a GIGANTIC screen in the back with little movie clips playing on them. The clips were both disturbing and beautiful all at once. The cinematography on them was great. They played: 1. Blackest Eyes (in Absentia) *my fav* 2. The Sound of Muzak (in Absentia) 3. Gravity Eyelids (in Absentia) 4. Futile (new radio ep that I got) 5. Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled (light bulb sun) 6. Hate song (light bulb sun) 7. Wedding Nails (in Absentia) 8. Russia On Ice (light bulb sun) 9. Moon Touches your Shoulders (The Sky Moves Sideways) 10. Strip the Soul (in Absentia) 11. encore: trains (in Absentia) These were most of the songs that they played at the acoustic set that I saw the earlier in the week. This set was so much better. It seemed like the acoustic set was way to comercial sounding. Anyhow, I'm not that familiar with their older stuff. I will have to get it a copy of some older stuff. It sounds a lot more jammie wit less vocals. the encore track they did "trains" starts off with chords that sould just like that oasis song wonderwall which made me giggle.[/QUOTE]
