I just bought tickets to an Opeth show that the Devin Townsend Band is opening for. I hadn't previously really listened to them, but I'm listening to Terria now and it's amazing! I'm just wondering how this music would translate to a live setting, though. Has anybody seen him? How was he?

I've seen him in Strapping Young Lad. I didn't enjoy the show all that much.

I'm going to a show on that tour. I must. I've seen live videos of him though, and he seemed quite into it and it looked fun. But, they're gonna be playing Sychestra stuff, maybe only a song or two off Terria, if that. I doubt Terria would work well live, it's too sublime an album.

Yeah, there are far too many subtleties on the album for it to work really well live. Is Synchestra heavier/less complex, then?
