LaBrie said "When we swing around the states and Canada again" 

NC, BITCHES!!!!

So quick question; the whole tour they've been sleeping on the bus? Cause damn these bunk beds are tiny. Or I have this impression cause it's JP.

JP is a big guy, so I would assume its small for him.

I'm pretty sure that JR said he had just arrived in his hotel room in one of his previous tour videos.

[erniesballs]

I'm going to go ahead and call this the Mangini effect.

I'd have to say that this isn't just Jordan. The whole band is a lot happier and more into it since Port "it's not you it's me" Noy left the band.

JP is smiling on stage, jumping on his foot stands, getting down and playing in people's faces (to melt them of course). Myung has been moving around a lot more and interacting with the crowd, which he never used to do....

Anyways, i think the band is just happier in general and it shows in their music and the demeanour on stage. As a fan, i'm really happy to see it since i know how hard these guys have worked to get to where they are.

Is there an official answer as to why the band is not doing any MP inspired songs?  Does this mean they will never play ACOS?

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

They said the lack of songs that include MP lyrics was pure and mere coincidence.

[cyberdrummer]

Yeah, the explanation for the choice of setlist was basically that they all listed their favourite songs to play and created a set from those. Coincidence, though I'm not fully convinced myself.

2011-12-09 - Diana Theater - Guadalajara, MEX has been CANCELLED.

[Progmetty]

I really thought they'd come back from the short hiatus with Lost Not Forgotten. I guess they're saving it for Europe.

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

Seems like there's some good quality footage out there of the Monterrey show.

I would have wetted myself if they did that, and was also kinda hoping they would.  When James started the San Diego show by saying that the gig was basically a rehearsal for the band, I knew there would be no surprises.

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

DT COME TO INDONESIA....

[tumbok]

Pure excitement is exploding here in Indonesia.
but we cannot find any info about the ticket sales AT ALL.
not even we know who the promoter is... no news from the expected local promoter who got DT deal back in 2006 but cancelled due to travel warning.

anyone in DTF can help us? DT management contacts?

[ResultsMayVary]

No Tokyo? Odd.

[cyberdrummer]

Yokohama probably counts as the show in the Tokyo area.

[DreamerTV]

2012-04-19 - Hannam-dong Blue Square Hall - Seoul, KOR   1764 seats

Hannam-dong Blue Square Hall


Orix Theater - Osaka, (new structure, it will be ready sometimes in 2012)


Prefectural Art Theater - Aichi


Arena - Yokohama

[Mladen]

Wow, those are some big venues. 

How about a live DVD, guys? 

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

Is Yokohama anywhere near Tokyo?

[cyberdrummer]

https://g.co/maps/qbsxf

It's pretty much a suburb of Tokyo by the looks of it. According to Wikipedia, it's part of the Greater Tokyo Area.

[ResultsMayVary]

Good, and that Arena is MASSIVE.

[tumbok]

2012-04-21 - Mata Elang Indoor Stadium - Jakarta, IDO ??   (tumbok, can you help me?  )

we are gathering information about the promoter and the venue.
and FYI Mata Elang Indoor Stadium is under construction, it is a new building.
the building will be ready on March 2012.
so i think DT will be the first international artist to perform there.
i don't have any idea how big the venue will be, but i think it will be pretty big for about 20000 people.

edit: capacity estimation

[Resonate]

Very, very nice venues!   Any of those would be great to see an official DVD made in.  And wow at the arena!

[Perpetual Change]

No Hong Kong? Lame.

[DreamerTV]

Wow, those are some big venues. 

How about a live DVD, guys? 

Actually, it's a strange option that for Seoul. 'Cause if i'm not wrong they used to play bigger venues there, and this time it seems to be the smaller one.

[Nick]

No Hong Kong? Lame.

What you should do is go to their official site and start a thread asking why they hate your country.

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

Or start writing DT COME TO HONG KONG.... in their facebook page. Seems to have worked for Indonesian fans.

ahhaha so true! it's absolutely everywhere. happy for them that they've finally got their wishes!

[systemartic]

our dream come true..DT come to Indonesia 

[inoku]

Finally INDONESIA!!! 

The Venue is still under construction. Ive managed to get some of the plans and 3D render Images for the venue









it's huge! man.. i am so mangini'd right now..

[ResultsMayVary]

Look at that stage extension. I doubt it will be there for the DT concert, but it would be ridiculous to see JM and JP hanging out on that part of the stage.

[davzdrummer]

anybody here got an idea if they'll be adding more Asian Dates? Or is final?  I was really hoping for them too include Philippines but it seems like it's a long shot.  So hopefully Singapore will be added.

Please note that the April 19th, 2012 Seoul Korea concert has had a change of venue and will now be held at Olympic Hall.

Bigger venue than the previous one, the Olympic Hall got 2700 seats.
