I would like to apologise in advance for those outside of Europe or otherwise unable to attend:
Honestly, I would have been extatic just being able to see Ulcerate, Wormed or Gigan. All three, possibly several times in the same tour, is just incomprehensible.
How's the 5.1? Nothing, I mean nothing, sounds as good as a well done 5.1 mix. I'm not a huge Opeth fan but bwp is my favorite of theirs and I'm a huge sucker for a proper multichannel

I'm not a fan of 5.1 music. No disrespect to anyone who likes it. I think Opeth vinyl sounds best. The 5.1 mix is just this extra I received with the Still Life remaster. I don't think I ever played it on the home theater. I did the mix down just to see if it worked and sounds good. I was actually wondering if it would sound weird. Amazingly it sounded good. I remember hearing new stuff in my mix down, wondering if it was better than the CD or just different.
I remember hearing a Steely Dan multichannel mix where every instrument was being played in its own area in the room. Is that how a good 5.1 always sounds?
My 5.1 setups have never been as good as my 2 channel setups.

My multichannel setup utterly destroys every 2 channel I've ever heard (at least I should say, for immersion in the sound. My speakers certainly aren't up to par with the best). Modern DSP are excellent, even 2 channel recordings expanded artificially nearly always (not always, but majority) sound incomparably better than playing them 2 channel. True recorded 5.1 blows my mind...of course it depends on how it was recorded but talk about immersion and instrument separation. A multichannel system for music is NOT plug n play like a lot of home theatre however...it's taken months to get levels and speaker EQ's matched across all channels and I'm still not entirely settled with it.
To each his own, and all respect to purists everywhere but I'll never pursue 2 channel audio again. I have headphones for that
On that note I just ordered the black water park 5.1 from Amazon and I can't wait!
