Just got back from seeing Opeth live for the first time, and it was awesome. Setlist was a bit more mellow than what I was hoping for, but was still a great show. I don't think I've ever seen a band that has as much fun playing live as they do.

Also, this:


Dude was rocking that wheelchair in the pit the whole show

Why the gently caress was there a pit? Their setlist doesn't call for one?

You forgot Agalloch.

Also, use a better Opeth song. Something like The Night and the Silent Water or Demon of the Fall or something off of Still Life.

Considering they sound so similar, if he had cut down the songs from 13 to 8 or so, putting half of the riffs in with other songs and mixing it up, it would probably be a lot better.

Yeah, but you can't work the number 8 into the word 'eight' and have it be catchy

Machine Head, Lamb of God, Mastodon, Black Label Society (I guess..), Devin Townsend Project, Hatebreed, Gojira, Turisas. Not an amazing lineup by any means but I'd go see it, mainly for Lamb of God and Mastodon. Sounds like enough bands for a dedicated metal stage like last year, shame the headliners completely suck though. Turisas is good fun as well.

Meshuggah :colbert:

Gentlemen!

Allow me to direct your attention to RED FANG.
It's my humble opinion that Red Fang is taking metal in the greatest possible direction and NOW THIS



Say what you will about Mastodon, but it's easily a worthy show just for Red Fang.

Missed that show because of an anniversary date with my girlfriend. Red Fang is local, so I'll catch them soon.

Oh, so DimeFest was put on by this local radio station that, I guess, plays metal. They put together this "charity" show and slapped Dimebag on a poster and called it a tribute show. Shocking.

The Portland metal scene loving sucks. Why can't every band here be like Agalloch, Red Fang and YOB?

yes, I know YOB is from Eugene, but gently caress Eugene

It's all either metalcore or bands that try their best to be some kind of Lamb of God sounding "death" metal band.
