It would be only a week later he resigns from Kamelot. In this performance im soured because I know Khan was dealing with depression and severe burnout (physically and mentally). He deserved his break from the band, im glad he’s happy now.
It nearly makes me cry to see him...I want him back for Kamelot!!! In my opinion he was and IS the only true singer for Kamelot...the band will never be the same without him...for me he was the best singer on the whole planet...and I've only seen him twice live...and I can't see him ever again...that's so sad! :'( I really hope that the albums without Roy will be good...but I'm not so sure about that... Roy I miss you so much :(
Pobre Roy fueron momentos tristes, despues supimos lo que sufrio esos años, los problemas de ansiedad son los peores para un artista del nivel de Roy y con una voz tan privilegiada, enhorabuena ya regreso con Conception y derrochando gran personalidad y con la voz recuperada
Amazing performance, I love everything this guy sings pretty much. Still, he sounded ill and nervous at Wacken '08, it's amazing that they carried through with his voice so shot. Sadly, I worry that contributed to his resignation.
ooooohh, wow, great, what a video, I am sad thinking about never see HIM again live! HE is best. Thomas has also a great charisma on stage and is wonderful, but Khan is Khan!
@kenshinjd He burnt out,i forget his actual statement but it seems to be pretty serious.The level where you just cant bring yourself to do anything anymore.He deserves a long break with his family and he'll probally come back out shining as he used to.
@I3lindGuardian I totally agree with you. I think he did take opera lessons though, and in the early years of Kamelot he seemed to have pretty good technique, but he probably just got sloppy. I'm a voice major and I'm guilt of the same thing lol, when I'm on summer break, my technique goes out the window and that's just a few months, so I can see how Khan's technique could fall so dramatically after years of no training :p
*swallows lump in throat* Their live shows are not as good or worse than the albums - they are BETTER! Fuck, I want to see these guys live soooo BAD! I hope they come to North America next year.
@Guinevere1989 I really really know how you feel, never got to see them with khan, my first show with them will be north american tour with fabio, september 23

12 years later, Roy wore these same pants at ProgPower USA.

De hecho, este fue el momento en que tomo la decision de parar. La gota que colmo el vaso. Afortunadamente lo tenemos de vuelta!
My fav band ever..
Así es perras tuve una crisis en el 2008 y ahora que me voy lo haré como nunca 😎
alguem aqui tem esse show?
Please tell me you have the whole concert did simone song with roy on this house on the hill
It breaks my heart to know that this was one of Khan's final performances with Kamelot before resigning.
Amazing song!!!
Going to see them in April !!!
OMFG!!! I'm officially in love with Roy Khan!!! His voice is just beautiful!!!
Kamelot is so fucking great!!! \m/
love karma !

Roy es mágnifico
august 14th 2010 was the last date Khan ever did
Khan got a killer voice, Karma is the awesome sause.
I laughed when Roy was singing "and here I am a small, and simple man" and he pointed to Sean... :-)
Sean new hairs are soo fucking great!
ooooohh, wow, great, what a video, I am sad thinking about never see HIM again live! HE is best. Thomas has also a great charisma on stage and is wonderful, but Khan is Khan!
@Persianroyal1 yeah :'(
Actually this was his final gig with them as far as I know
@Aniasan 0 dislikes??? I don't think any cam can make this man sound bad, thanks for the upload!
@666MetalMatt ah thanks dude, I do hope he can climb back up on his well-deserved stage again
Im gutted that hes left :( even more that I never got to see him live :'(
i just want to add that i think it sounded fantastic live! I think my camera didn't pick up his voice up so well...
@GameJourney This was also a month before his nervous breakdown.. so.. that has something to do with it, the man is just burnt out.
@kenshinjd He burnt out,i forget his actual statement but it seems to be pretty serious.The level where you just cant bring yourself to do anything anymore.He deserves a long break with his family and he'll probally come back out shining as he used to.
it was Sziget festival hungary
Yep. Roy's voice is now shot. Flat throughout. Sad. He took opera lessons too.
I'm not sure but i think roy's voice isnt the same as one cold winter's night...it isnt so good now!!!!
Roy eh o melhor....saudades

@Loki335 nervous breakdown? is that what happened to Roy? Sorry if you've got anymore elaboration as to what happened I'd love to know more thanx.
@Persianroyal1 I know, I missed them in Fresno by TWO DAYS!!!!1 I figured "oh well, I'll see them next tour....." I was heartbroken! DX
@bmzbg I saw that on wikipedia.
@666MetalMatt He already did, they reunited
*swallows lump in throat*
Their live shows are not as good or worse than the albums - they are BETTER! Fuck, I want to see these guys live soooo BAD! I hope they come to North America next year.
@Guinevere1989 We can at least hope he has a solo project eventually.
@Guinevere1989 I really really know how you feel, never got to see them with khan, my first show with them will be north american tour with fabio, september 23
@RawrItsJuul So he could join conception?i wish.
Your wish came true!
@Persianroyal1 agreed :'(
Does anybody know what Roy says before the first verse?
@666MetalMatt He quit so he could join his old band
@Persianroyal1 who is Khan?
If Roy Khan leaves Kamelot, there will be another teen suicide.
Roy apavoraaaaaaaa ,Kamelot perdeu um grande vocalista ,.Fabio lione Ñ canta porra nenhuma se ele entra pro kamelot vai afundar a banda ,.!!!
