Probably the greatest show of all time. The stench of weed hung high in the air as Opeth powerfully blasted some of their best songs to everyone in the audience. The set list was:

-Heir Apparent (I couldn't find any good versions of this from the show on Youtube, mainly because the crowd became one big mosh pit)
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VctK52V9uw&feature=channel - Ghost of Perdition
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPGTbrDlk-Q&feature=related - Godhead's Lament
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04yVUuXDSjE&feature=channel - The Lepper Affinity
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V9dLxpyfgU&feature=channel - Credence (Which faded into)
- Hessian Peel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75gfdHGcb-k&feature=channel_page - Part 1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZlLS9ueLDw&feature=channel_page - Part 2
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-EkqqMKHeA&feature=channel - Closure (With psychedelic jam)
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp6nx9X75-E&feature=channel - The Night and the Silent Water
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ygnnrlqk8kI&feature=related - The Lotus Eater

And the AMAZING encore which consisted of Axelson ripping away at his guitar for five minutes while the rest of the band talked and got ready to play DELIVERANCE.

It was an overall amazing show and I met a bass player there with whom I might start a band with.

I thought for a while that I wouldn't bother, especially since they massively downgraded drummers.

I might want to go see them now.
