Manage to fight my way through slow websites and throngs of prog loving bogans to get some tickets, stoked!

Love Sydney Opera House, last time I was there I watched Madam Butterfly, pure magic :)
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Would surely be an amazing experience, wish I'd seen them when they were touring Blackwater Park, still one of my all time favourite records :)

I saw them in auckland in 2006 I think it was. Unreal how they pull off all the tempo changes and switching from clean to dirt guitar tones. I was really impressed

Caligula's Horse just announced as support for all the figs apart from the opera house one, pretty tempted by the Auckland date now.

Bummer, still, Opeth in the opera house will be amazing, and it gives you an excuse to go see one of the other gigs as well.
I'm actually not sure I'm going to make it. I might have some work on that week which would be too good to pass up.

Yeah its "Evening With..." - so no opening act at all - so I'm hoping it'll be longer than usual
