I will most likely be going to this, but I need to wait until I claim back some expenses first as I'm a grand out of pocket currently!

I will be going to this. Might even fork out for a meet and greet  :o

I may cross Europe and attend  :)

Can you belive that it would be cheaper getting to London and Wembley than simply reaching one of the Italian venues?

XJDenton

For some places, I can totally believe that.

Doesn't seem to be selling too well at the moment, you can still get tickets in block A4.

DreamerTV

I think it's still too early (more then 4 months) for people to decide for a gig instead of another, as the general offer of concerts, and tickets price, it's really high.

It's Dream Theater and Periphery. lol. The show will do good.

cyberdrummer

Perhaps, still a bit sceptical myself...  :lol

Doesn't mean much, blocks A2-4 are more expensive.

I started to plan my trip for the wembley and manchester concerts, then watch the Manchester United - Liverpool game.... Oh, well.. It's SEATED! After watching the Wither video, I got so excited about going to wembley cause the crowd seemed crazy. Guess I might plan something else instead

I was under the assumption that the front block would sell out near instantly, so I brought my ticket right way :laugh:

Thanks for the info, I'm in B2 I think. Waiting a bit longer to get my tickets obviously :P

I bought two batches of tickets, one ticket for myself from See Tickets and three for my family from Ticketmaster. The Ticketmaster three have arrived but I'm still waiting on the See Tickets one for me!

Also I'm in A4, one row from the front!

Same here mate, if I had only waited a few days to post I would have seen the dispatch xD

GuitarWizard

Got my tickets yesterday so quick :) Anyone fancy a DTF meet up?

Jinx

Given that its now only 3 or so weeks away, does anyone have any clue what the attendance is looking like? We need to make it a crazy loud crowd for our Gods  :hefdaddy

cyberdrummer

Not quite sure. The last couple of times it's been around 8000 I think.

Jinx

Intrigued to see what the setlist is in Stockholm tonight, seeing as that if there is up to four different setlists, then we will definitely be getting setlist 'B' (providing its on a proper rotation).

Have to see the setlist anyway, I am going with a friend not familiar with DT and want to get a CD with a majority of the set on so he has an idea of the music!

Wembley hasn't sold out the last 2 times, and I don't think it will
in 2012.

It sold out in 2007 for Chaos in Motion.


It was curtained off two thirds of the way back,therefore not a sell out.

And there was huge capacity left even with it curtained off.

As big a fan as I am of Dream Theater, I can't really advocate their playing of Wembley Arena.

Still, perhaps the crowd size will justify the venue this time around.

cyberdrummer

Agreed, two nights at Hammersmith would be much better.

Jinx

Well I know nothing is set in stone in regarding setlists but after watching Millais's TDEN vid in the Copenhagen thread, I really hope they play it in Wembley. I know generally it gets a lot of stick but it just looks like a really fun performance to witness live.

Also here's hoping for AIA as encore. Failing that, the mighty Metropolis  :metal

I'm quite sure i remember Portnoy saying that.

I'm getting the tingles just thinking about it :')

Guys,

I've seen on some setlist sites that DT have been doing half normal and half acoustic sets?!?!?

Please tell me that they won't be playing an acoustic 2nd half at wembley!!! I wait all year to witness the full power that is DT and I'd be somewhat dissapointed to sit through acoustic versions some of my favorite songs :/

Not half and half, out of the ~15 songs that they play, ~2/3 are acoustic.
