[theSavageHippie]

[enarchay]

Where was this video taken from? Opeth behind the scenes or what?

[vivifromchile]

[toecutterr6]

Wow! unbelievable...amazing!

[stuckondamoment]

Mikael Akerfeldt is awesome... this guys are awesome!!!

[VentriZ]

[EvilCracky]

Comus rules !!

Hope to be there one day...would be amazing

Watchingthis makes me want to drink BEEEER

[theMEGAPOPE]

[woltersg]

Mike the baby :P

This vid is magic..

Glenn (My name)

23rd september (My birthday)

Mike (Great guy)

Comus (great band ^^)

Ahh, man I should have been there

[Demian164]

SOMEONE PLEASE TAB THIS!!!

[zissuntetnah]

So if you can come in Florence, and in Sicily too. ^^

Last but not least: since I know that you love italian progressive (Balletto di Bronzo for example :) I recommend you to listen to "Concerto delle Menti" by Pholas Dactylus. I think it's the best thing ever happened to italian progressive! Better if you listen it with someone who knows italian, so that he can translate you the lyrics: they're really scary and powerful!

Best Regards (and hope to see you soon ;),

Hello Mr. Åkerfeldt!

I know that you're reading so I take advantage of it. ;)

First of all I wanted to congratulate you to have been able to make Comus reunite. When i read that new I was sure that the main reason of this reunion had been you.

Then.. I know you love to come in Italy for concerts, so please if Comus should go on tour with Opeth as support band make a large tour in my country.. I think you know that in Italy the old school of progressive rock is really loved. ;)

[amorphic101]

Feel so privileged to have been there. I've uploaded a couple of videos for you guys to check out...

[capillarian187]

Absolute magic in the air. I shall remember Melloboat for the rest of my mortal life.

[LunaticInvasion]

I was on the Melloboat... Comus show was the best I have ever seen... Just incredible!

My camera wasn't working well, but don't worry, there will be a dvd of the whole festival!!!

[93riven]

[93riven]

the most overlooked band EVER

[CulainnVannin]

Not true, but one of the best over looked bands, yes.

[93riven]

ok, whateve you call it. pure art.

[SirRoachtokeMacPuff]

What I'd give to see them...

[CulainnVannin]

If only they were not playing all the way on the other side of the pond.

[druidgnome]

Someone HAS to tape this show, esp the Comus part, for those of us who can't make it out there. This is great stuff!

[vidgamer77]

Please, PLEASE for us that can't make that show PLEASE film the band or record them!!! it would be priceless footage, and especially The Herald? My god. Thanks for this video this is enough to amaze me for now

[Benjamin666face]

Woah, this is great!

Comus and Opeth at the Melloboat...!

I can't miss that event!

[giggidygoooo]

i wish i knew mike was in london then :(

would of "accidenty" ran into him xD

[bobgreen623]

What!! Comus getting back together?? I don't believe it! I fell in love with the First Utterance LP in about 72-3, wore it out, and finally got a replacement CD about 4 years back. some music dates horribly, but this is timeless and I will always love it. Glenn, thanks for displaying one of the most beautiful parts of the whole album, and thanks mellotronen for posting this amazing clip

[Mellotronen]

Hello Bob!

I agree First Utterance are timeless.

It's a thrill just to think that within 5 months will we see this immortal band LIVE!!!

The tickets for the festival will be released the 26th of October. Can't see a reason why any fan of COMUS should miss this event!? COMUS FOREVER!

[Mellthorn]

Great talents, together in London O_O.

[caquintet]

I am have been such a major Comus fan for 20 years or more, I am amazed to hear Glen play the herald instrumental.

I have tryed very hard to play this peice on my guitar, but now with any look i will be able to watch this over and over again to see what he is playing. Wow Comus to reform and play live.

Is there any possibility that Comus will play more than the one GIG in Norway, please play some gigs in England.

The Music of Comus is unique and inspiring

I must see you guys live !!!

[jeepthing07]

Cool!!!

[killertofu101001]

Opeth Rules!

[Reinisen]

I think these people will change my life even more, once I get to meet them.

Be sure to visit their reunion-gig on the ferry arranged by Mellotronen in Stockholm on the 8/9 of March next year.

[ablackwinter]

two living legends together!

Awesome!

[woltersg]

All guys who are named Glenn ROCK! Even more when they hang out with Mike :P

Mike looks like a little girl with that smile on his face :P

[rachelseagroatt]

[mirukia]

I still can't believe my dearest best friend filmed Mikael Åkerfeldt :D

[ajthemetalgod]

[ajthemetalgod]

That young girl is quite the looker.

Yummy.

[dharmabum23114]

One of my favorite songs by any artist. Awesome.

[neuromancer123]

Finally!

[niallicius]

[PhilaTheMidget]

Wow... This is... Wow. Damn, why do we have to wait until March to see more of this?

The look on Åkerfeldt's face is priceless, BTW. Brilliant! (:-D
