Cara, William and myself went to see Opeth play at the Palace (formerly Metro) on Friday night. The performance was most triumphant. As time of posting interested parties can find a video of the performance on YouTube, although unfortunately the quality is extremely lacking and doesn’t nearly do them justice. For reference, the song in that particular recording sounds like this on the album. The support band were quite good, the venue was quite reasonable and not overly crowded, and the late night KFC after the concert was most enjoyable.
Next up for concerts is DragonForce in October.
Tropic Thunder was quite good, and we had the most unusual experience after seeing it of candle-lit dining in Nandos due to power failure. Fortunately for us they were already mostly done with preparing our food, and we’d long since escaped from the cinema (out of which many people were streaming).
That is all for now.
//ADENDUM: Some random guy taking photos at the Opeth concert got a shot of Cara and I that you can see here (full gallery). As usual I look terrible. Ah well.
