Opeth

I was primarily at this show to see DTP (who were amazing) and had the good fortune to get my introduction to Opeth. Holy shit. I cried. Seeing them live is an incredible experience. The quality of the music this band makes cannot be overstated.

Only found em a month or so before the gig. Couldn’t believe my luck as they were playing just up the road from where I live. Totally amazing live. Complex stuff made to look easy.

Initially a muddy sound, however it cleaned up nicely and a very special performance of Moon Above, Sun Below made the gig very memorable. Incredible musicianship.

El sonido fue excelente y la banda cumplió con todas las expectativas, un gran concierto en verdad, desafortunadamente se vio manchado por retrasos al momento de empezar el concierto aunque valió la pena la espera.

Sorceress and Wilde Flowers were the only new songs they played. Would've loved to have heard Chrysalis, Era, and Fleeting Glance. The set list was an otherwise fan favourite with a solid chunk of metal. Heir, Ghost, Demon, Deliverance, Face of Melinda, Time of Need, Cusp. Think I've missed one or two. They had a couple sneaky transitions between songs which were beautiful. Poor Michael has lost his growling vocals and I only saw the old growls come through once or twice all night. At least the prog stuff is great.

Amazing! They sound so good live! And they played a great mix of stuff from all different albums (including my favourite song, so maybe I'm biased)
