Opeth was solid, for sure, although maybe a tad underwhelming. They definitely had a good amount of fans show up. Take my opinion with a grain of salt though, as I'm not very familiar with much of their material (I own Blackwater Park and literally haven't heard any of their other songs), and I didn't stay for the whole set (had other bands to see). Their fans seemed to enjoy it a lot though. Also to consider, I had a friend who stayed for their whole set, and had never heard ANY of their songs before (he only had heard good things about them), and he doesn't really listen to progressive metal, and he thought they were awesome. If you're a fan of the band though, I would just check them out on their upcoming tour, which seems to be hitting venues in many cities (including House of Blues Orlando, which is only about an hour and a half away for me). Check 'em out here.
As for what I thought of the other bands, I posted all my thoughts in the usic Festival thread, so go check that out.

I'm seeing him in Detroit later this year. One of the best artists of all time. I recently read his auto-biography "A Pirate Looks at Fifty," it was actually very well written. |

I saw Arcade Fire a couple weeks ago in Charlottesville, VA. They were awesome as always.

Updating my list:
AC/DC - Awesome
Airbourne - Eh
The Answer - Eh
Attika7 - Lame. Too Reptitive. Every song, specifically solo, sounded the same
Avenged Sevenfold - Greatest fucking band in the entire world. Holy Shit.
Disturbed - Boring as hell. Maybe it wasn't their fault since they had to follow up after A7X, but when 3/4 of the crowd leaves after A7X...
Hail the Villain - My second favorite band ever now. The lead singer put on a fucking show. They were so awesome. Glad I found them!
Halestorm - Didn't like them until I saw them live. Damn, they put on a hell of a show. Amazing live. Lzzy has an amazing voice!
Hell Yeah - Meh
New Medicine - Meh
Stone Sour - They sounded good live, but not a fan of them
Between the Buried and Me - One of the best bands I have seen live. So perfect live, from the start to the end, they were amazing. Blake and Tommy are out of this world.
Celphalic Carnage - I did not like them at all. Their songs were annoying, along with the singer..
Job For a Cowboy - John Rice is insane.. They were pretty good live
I'm going to Uproar this year, so I'll be seeing the following bands
Avenged Sevenfold - Seen before. Greatest band ever.
Three Days Grace - Don't care for.
Seether - Don't care for.
Bullet for my Valentine - Pretty cool band, I like a few of their songs.
Escape The Fate - I like one of their songs, but I don't really like this band...maybe they can change my mind at uproar.
Sevendust - Never heard of them.
Black Tide - I only heard of this band through Rock Band and I like shockwave and warriors of time, but the singer's voice changed since he hit puberty I think..His voice is deeper and I don't like it anymore.
Art of Dying - Don't care for.
The Black Cloud Collective - Don't care for.

just got back home from seeing Peter Frampton, he's doing a 35th anniversary tour of Frampton Comes Alive, doing the album in full and in order from first track to last, plus lots of other great stuff and amazing covers of "black hole sun" and "while my guitar gently weeps". the dude still fuckin kills it and was a 3 hour set with a 20 minute intermission, it blew my mind how great he was.
also going to be seeing bright eyes with the mountain goats opening the show at the end of the month, have 13th row tickets right in the middle I can't wait.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBfTk6Unddk You've probably heard this song before by Sevendust.
Also, I'm going to Warped Tour this year. I'm mostly excited for Less Thank Jake and The Word Alive, as well as most of the hardcore bands. I really wish they would have more deathcore than metalcore/screamo though. All metalcore bands sound nearly the same and it's nice to hear a singer who isn't some whiny 30-year old trying to sound like he's a whiny 17-year old

didnt know they were still touring. saw them like 7 times through 2000-2004. these guys are a blast to see live but since Josh left in 2007, its a bit different. i do admit its not for everybody.

Saw Sevendust at Carnival of Madness last year, they are one of the bigger reasons I want to go to Uproar this year. Damn good live show.
Going to Mayhem Fest beginning of august and seeing 10 Years for the second time at the end of the month. Also probably going to see Jason Aldean in September, musical diversity ftw.

Honestly haven't heard of that song...It doesn't sound familiar at all.

Definitely not for me. Their songs were so random... I didn't find anything about them funny. Their drummer was pretty good though...

Unfortunately, they are going to be on the side stage and I am going straight to waiting in line for the main stage so I can get front row for A7X. My brother saw them on tour before and he said they were alright, but he doesn't listen to them, so maybe they performed well but it wasn't his type of music?
