Opeth -- Bristol, England -- November 8th, 2011

Why do I feel that this was inevitable?

[The Ghost at Number One]

It wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that this set list is bullshit.

People bitching and moaning? Yeah I saw it coming too.

Come on guys, for those that actually went to the US tour, was it really that bad? Waaaah Mikael only growled for 2 bloodbath covers on the last show, waaaaaah. Opeth songs that are clean vocals and no distortion are just as evil as any Progressive Death metal song they have done in the past, and just as good.

If I could have afforded to go, I would have went and enjoyed every second of the show, and you fuckers got Katatonia as well.

Because trying to be cool, why do you really have to bitch about. Heritage is a great fucking album.

Are you so dense that you couldn't possibly understand why people feel jipped?

From being a fan of Opeth since Deliverance. I guess I must be dense.

The only reason, in my eyes, to feel jipped is because there is some rare songs in the set. But I know that's not why a lot of people are bitching about the set. I see nothing wrong with this set, and I see nothing wrong with the US sets. If anything, the US fans got a very special set because it's probably never going to happen again. As much as Mikael doesn't want to do Death Metal anymore, this current set shows that it's never going to fully go away. Even if it just means playing the songs from the past.

I don't feel jipped at all. I very much enjoyed their set on the last tour. It was a great experience, and I was completely happy/satisfied with what we were given. If you're going to bitch and moan about the American setlists, than you must not like Opeth as much as you think you do.

Look, the Opeth concert I saw was great, and I reviewed it and said I loved every second of it and it was amazing, but if this were the setlist instead, it probably would have been even better. End of story. If you call that bitching, than it's bitching. And no one here is a bigger Opeth fan than myself.

[Rocco44]

Damn, I would have loved that setlist... oh well

I not asking you why you think it was a good set. I'm asking you if you can understand why other people wouldn't like it. Do you think your view is the only correct one? Regardless of whether or not it would happen again, some people were going to be disappointed by the set. I'm not saying you're wrong for thinking it was a good, but your comment was immature and made you seem like a douche, hence why I responded the way I did.
