Mastermind Mikael Åkerfeldt comments on this special occasion: "So, we're planning to celebrate a belated band-birthday, also known as BBB. How do we celebrate a thing like this, you ask? Well, we go to work. We are planning a very few select shows in 2021 where you basically have the collective choice of picking the songs for the setlist. Since we'll be celebrating 30 years we would love to play a song from each album we've done. All 13 of them. If you can help us and pick your choice of one song per album from the list, and then we'll simply play the songs with the most votes. It's been done before, but not by us. I am reluctant and nervous, but also excited to see what songs you will choose. I can't really believe we've been around for 30 years, but there you go. So please help us. And be gentle. The final setlist will have 13 songs. One from each album. Your call?."

Knowing how many people were coming here for "Black Rose Immortal," I came here to say "Nectar" just to fuck with you and to give Mendez something to do.

I picked the longest song from each album

Posts: 349 Written by Troy Killjoy on 07.09.2020 at 01:35 By my calculations this would mean something akin to the set below: In Mist She Was Standing 14:09 Black Rose Immortal 20:15 The Amen Corner 8:43 The Moor 11:26 Blackwater Park 12:08 By the Pain I See in Others 13:50 Windowpane 7:44 Reverie/Harlequin Forest 11:39 Hessian Peel 11:25 Famine 8:31 Moon Above, Sun Below 10:53 Strange Brew 8:44 All Things Will Pass 8:33 That comes to just under 2 and half hours (with no break between the songs), so it could be done....  If Opeth play in release order, we'd just see the quality of songs decrease as the set goes on

I was also very happy to hear some less played songs like Harvest and Burden, but other than that the setlist was very much a "hits" kind of thing.
