Anyone going to Progressive Nation tonight?

I know I will be, and I'm rather excited to see an Opeth set of decent length.

Nah...I figured I'd pass this time around.
I've seen them both so many times.

Great bands, but I'm saving to buy the Underpants Gnomes that shiny new fortress in the Carribean that they've been asking for.
The Secret Lair is just getting too small for my beloved Gnomes.
And with the market the way it is, I figure now is the time to buy.
You're all invited to the House-breaking party, but no naked-ness in the dungeon hot-tub, please.

I refuse to see Opeth open for anyone anymore and I don't need to see Dream Theater again.

Have a great time at the show!

Yes Amber, your refusal is an act that qualifies you for "wussiness".

Thanks! I can understand that, I really regret not seeing them on their own tours around damnation/ghost reveries release. So for now, festivals will have to due.

How dare you disrespect my honor?!
Alas, Jose.....you have left me no choice but to unleash the fury and wrath of thy four-headed Demon Gnome.
He is armed with craptastic Metal and the 'Mexican kryptonite'....LETTUCE!
Prepare to die!

I'm going, can't wait. I'm a big DT and Opeth fan but I've seen them both more times than I can count. I'm pretty excited to see 3 and btbam

Not. This argument seems reminiscent of the Tarja vs. Annette.

At least some of us gave Annette a chance.
