One song from each album-your dream setlist

[Ruba]

Status Seeker
Wait For Sleep
The Silent Man
You Not Me
Through My Words
War Inside My Head
Vacant
Never Enough
Prophets Of War
Wither
Far From Heaven

/tard

You cannot make a horrible setlist, because the four first albums doesn't have even good songs, because they all are better than good. The three first would be awesome.

and we have a winner! though perhaps with ITNOG instead of "Endless Sacrifice" (not opposed to it, though).

Endless Sacrifice is my 3rd fav DT song...

[John94]

The Killing Hand
Learning to Live
Voices
Trial of Tears
Home
The Glass Prison
In The Name of God
The Root of All Evil
Prophets of War
A Nightmare to Remember
Breaking All Illusions

[GasparXR]

I also ordered mine to make sense.

The Glass Prison
Just Let Me Breathe
Wither
Repentance
Metropolis Pt.1: The Miracle and the Sleeper
The Dance of Eternity (it would be epic because the last words of metropolis are 'the dance of eternity' and it ends on a D chord... which starts TDOE)
Caught in a Web (perfect segue from TDOE because you're expecting to hear the C# power chord in one last time, and CIAW is in C# minor)
The Root of All Evil (another magical segue because the rhythm at the end of CIAW is similar to the intro rhythm in TROAE)
Endless Sacrifice
A Fortune In Lies
Breaking all Illusions

A Change of Seasons

Fuck this took me a while.

[wasteland]

The song order is a major factor in making a setlist work live:


A Change Of Seasons
The Killing Hand
The Count Of Tuscany
Scarred
Stream Of Consciousness
Finally Free
--
Trial Of Tears
Repentance
Breaking All Illusions
Disappear
Octavarium
--
Encore
Learning To Live

Which is probably the best setlist I could ever come up with for a DT concert. Surprisingly, it's only 2h59m long, so it could theoretically be done in an actual concert.

[Chimpi]

The Killing Hand
Metropolis
Scarred
A Change Of Seasons
Lines In The Sand
Home
The Glass Prison
In The Name Of God
Octavarium
In The Presence Of Enemies
A Nightmare To Remember
Bridges In The Sky

Exactly this.

[tofee35]

*I've only listened to Systematic Chaos a couple times and don't remember. I need to pick it up. Let's throw a melodic Petrucci-only solo here to break up the hysteria between PA and ANTR

[7thHanyou]

A Fortune in Lies
Under a Glass Moon
The Silent Man
Trial of Tears
Finally Free
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence

[Progmetty]

The one song from each album format would not make my dream DT set list.

Under a Glass Moon

The acoustic/string set they pulled off on the DVD, this time with:
Wither
Vacant
-----------------------
The Dark Eternal Night/Drum Solo
TSCO
Breaking All Illusions
SDV
----------------------
Eve/LtL

Not too taxing on anyone in the band, and not even slightly on the audience... especially myself Only two hours, even. This could be a regular setlist for a non-Evening With tour
