Veckans Citat: Mikael Åkerfeldt

Idag är Veckans Citat hämtat direkt från en livetagning.
En av världens bästa skitsnackare på scen står för guldkornen, och vill du lyssna på det här själv så finns det i Opeths senaste livedokumentation "In Live Concert At The Royal Albert Hall", mellan låtarna "The Moor" och "Wreath". (Spotify här)
Hela given är uppbuggd som en resa genom bandets diskografi, och mellan låtarna berättar Mikael Åkerfeldt om bandets resa. Just här pratar han lite om en viss Steven Wilson från Porcupine Tree, som ju varit en viktig del i Opeths skivproduktioner genom åren...
Citatet är på engelska denna gång, så att inget ska gå förlorat i översättningen. kan du inte engelska så ligger du alltså brunt till, och får lösa det på något sätt!
okej, det här citatet är långt, i stort sett mer en berättelse. Häng med..

"Ehh... what happened next. Well, eh, In my little crummy flat, where I was eating canned beans and smoking all the time, I actually got... somebody gave me a computer I think, I got set up with the emails...internets...shit like that. And... I got an email one day from Steven Wilson.. who said that... you guys are the greatest band of all time, and you are the most genius songwriter, and Porcupine Tree wouldn't be around if it wasn't for Opeth.
I was like... hey, Steve - shut the fuck up.
No, we, I was a massive Porcupine Treefan at the time, and... we hooked up, had dinner, and... kissed..and I asked him to produce the next record, wich was gonna be Blackwater Park.
But we already played that album, didn't we?
Don't waanna play that again.
We're gonna jump to the Deliverance record, cause Steve was involved in that one too, making it even more sick and evil and twisted.Now, we might have been.. we should maybe have been smoother and played a nice song, because we're in such a nice environment.
But we wanna be bad.
Just like Michael Jackson!
So we're gonna playa track from the Deliverance record, and this is a fast one. It's just because we are in here.. okay? It's kind of shit, but whatever.
It's called Wreath."
