One song from each album-your dream setlist

[wasteland]

Good Job Milena Now I want to know how did you manage to find this thread 

Let's see... 8 months down the line my setlist would change just a tiny bit:

A Change Of Seasons
Don't Look Past Me
The Killing Hand
The Count Of Tuscany
Scarred
The Dark Eternal Night
Finally Free
--
Trial Of Tears
Breaking All Illusions
Stream Of Consciousness
Disappear
Octavarium
--
Encore
Eve / Learning To Live

[Dacling]

WDADU: Another Hand/The Killing Hand
I&W: Wait For Sleep/Learning to Live (They are like one song to me)
Awake: A Mind Beside Itself
ACOS: A Change of Seasons
FII: Trial of Tears
SFAM: Home
6DOIT: Six Degrees
TOT: In the Name of God
8VM: Octavarium
SC: In the Presence of Enemies
BC&SL: The Count of Tuscany
ADTOE: Breaking All Illusions

The set list may be just a little long. Slightly longer than The Letter M's because of Breaking All Illusions instead of Bridges in the Sky and the Addition of Wait for Sleep, and A Mind Beside Itself.

[The Letter M]

Ya know, guys, he didn't say the songs had to be in chronological order...

Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence
Trial Of Tears
The Killing Hand
Home
The Count Of Tuscany
(Intermission)
In The Presence Of Enemies
Bridges In The Sky
In The Name Of God (last note segues into...)
Octavarium
Learning To Live
Encore - A Change Of Seasons

Set 1 ~ 95 minutes
Set 2 ~ 85 minutes
Encore ~ 24 minutes
Total Show ~ 204 minutes

...yes, nearly three and a half hours, but they could totally do it! "Nothing but fuckin' epics!"

-Marc.

I just realized... I didn't pick a song from Awake when I did this... OOPS! 

In that case...here's the revised set list:

Six Degrees Of Inner Turbulence
Trial Of Tears
The Killing Hand
Home
The Count Of Tuscany

(Intermission)

In The Presence Of Enemies
Bridges In The Sky (segues into...)
Scarred
In The Name Of God (last note segues into...)
Octavarium
Learning To Live
Encore - A Change Of Seasons

Now it's about a 215 minute long show, not including intermission and between-song banter/intros, so it'd probably be about a 230 minute show. Yeah, nearly four hours of Dream Theater. It'd be their Masterworks Tour though

WDADU: Another Hand/The Killing Hand
I&W: Wait For Sleep/Learning to Live (They are like one song to me)
Awake: A Mind Beside Itself
ACOS: A Change of Seasons
FII: Trial of Tears
SFAM: Home
6DOIT: Six Degrees
TOT: In the Name of God
8VM: Octavarium
SC: In the Presence of Enemies
BC&SL: The Count of Tuscany
ADTOE: Breaking All Illusions

The set list may be just a little long. Slightly longer than The Letter M's because of Breaking All Illusions instead of Bridges in the Sky and the Addition of Wait for Sleep, and A Mind Beside Itself.

I thought about including AMBI but figured there'd be a lot of outcry (nuggetz) about it being 3 songs and not 1 because it's a suite, etc. etc. I also thought about including BAI, but to me, it was either BAI or LTL, and I wanted the latter instead of BAI. It just ends a show/set better, IMO.

-Marc.

[Grinch]

In the Presence of Enemies
Take the Time
A Mind Beside Itself (The Silent Man electric version)
Home
Blind Faith
Breaking All Illusions

(Intermission)

Octavarium
Another Hand/The Killing Hand
The Count of Tuscany
Trial of Tears
In the Name of God
Encore - A Change of Seasons

[MoraWintersoul]

Monster setlist.

[Lolzeez]

The Killing Hand
Metropolis Part 1
A Mind Beside Itself
A Change Of Seasons
Lines In The Sand
Beyond This Life
Blind Faith
Endless Sacrifice
Octavarium
Presence Of Enemies
The Count Of Tuscany
Bridges In The Sky

Errrm yeah I'll take LTL instead of Metropolis. And Outcry over BITS. The rest is good although using "A Mind Beside Itself" is very naughty.

[Mindflux]

If you can count Six Degrees as one track (as others have done)

I want

Skip WDADU
Another Day
Skip Awake
Skip FII
SFAM (whole thing)
The Glass Prison
Endless Sacrifice
TMOLS
Octavarium (first 14 mins or so, Parts I/II)
Skip BC&SL
Skip ADToE

[Scorpion]

Alright.

Metropolis
Blind Faith
Fatal Tragedy
The Killing Hand
Scarred
Repentance
Trial of Tears
Wither
Breaking All Illusions
In the Name of God
--- Encore ---
Eve
A Change of Seasons

That would work.

[MoraWintersoul]

Alright.

Metropolis
Blind Faith
Fatal Tragedy
The Killing Hand
Scarred
Repentance
Trial of Tears
Wither
Breaking All Illusions
In the Name of God
--- Encore ---
Eve
A Change of Seasons

That would work.

Let's attend together I want these songs. So bad.

[senecadawg2]

They don't have to be in order do they?


Set 1:
Home
The Count of Tuscany
The Killing Hand
In the Name of God
Octavarium
Disappear

Breather

Set 2:
Forsaken
Breaking All Illusions
Scarred
Learning to Live
Trial of Tears

Encore:
ACOS


What a monster of a show that would be.

[wasteland]

Ah! You gave away the last part of your Top50! 

[Lolzeez]

Alright.

Metropolis
Blind Faith
Fatal Tragedy
The Killing Hand
Scarred
Repentance
Trial of Tears
Wither
Breaking All Illusions
In the Name of God
--- Encore ---
Eve
A Change of Seasons

That would work.

Let's attend together I want these songs. So bad.

The Killing Hand would be so dang epic.

[senecadawg2]

Ah! You gave away the last part of your Top50! 

Woops, I didn't mean to do that. I did gave away one song, but the other 2 were basically inevitable at this point.

[jonnybaxy]

The killing hand
Take the time
Voices
ACOS
Trial of tears
The dance of eternity (only because not many of SFAM work very well alone)
Blind faith
As I am
Octavarium
In the presence of enemies (I and II)
A nightmare to remember
Breaking all illusions

This might have to be in an evening with form...almost 3 hours there....

[GasparXR]

I think I'll try this one again.

WDADU: The Ones Who Help To Set the Sun
IAW: Wait for Sleep/Learning to Live
Awake: Space-Dye Vest
FII Demos: Speak to Me
FII: Anna Lee
SFAM: Beyond This Life
SDOIT: The Great Debate
TOT: Endless Sacrifice
8V: Octavarium
SC: Prophets of War
BC&SL: Wither
ADTOE: This is the Life

Now to order them in a setlist:

The Ones Who Help to Set the Sun
Prophets of War
Beyond This Life
Speak to Me
Endless Sacrifice
This is the Life
Anna Lee
The Great Debate
Wither
Octavarium
---Encore---
Space-Dye Vest
Wait for Sleep
Learning to Live

[Ad134]

I'll ignore ACOS, because it's not from an album.


If it has to be in chronological order:

Ytse Jam (yeah, start with an instrumental, why not?!)
Surrounded
Voices
Lines In The Sand
Home
The Glass Prison
This Dying Soul
The Root Of All Evil
Repentance
The Shattered Fortress
Breaking All Illusions

If BAI has to be the encore, then so be it. If I can have a bonus for the encore, it'll be Learning To Live.




If it doesn't have to be in chronological order:

Bridges In The Sky
Afterlife
Scarred
Vacant
Metropolis Pt.1
The Dance Of Eternity
Disappear
Constant Motion
Peruvian Skies
The Count Of Tuscany
Octavarium

Once again, if Octavarium has to be the encore I'd be happy to have that, but if I can have a bonus for it, it's A Mind Beside Itself.

[Scorpion]

Alright.

Metropolis
Blind Faith
Fatal Tragedy
The Killing Hand
Scarred
Repentance
Trial of Tears
Wither
Breaking All Illusions
In the Name of God
--- Encore ---
Eve
A Change of Seasons

That would work.

Let's attend together I want these songs. So bad.

Anytime.

Though the rest of the setlist could actually go fuck itself, if only there were Eve.

[GasparXR]

I wonder how it would sound if their live music fucked itself o.O

And indeed, great setlist you have there. May I touch it? :3

2. The Mirror
3. A Fortune In Lies
4. Blind Faith
5. Forsaken

7. Wither (piano version)
8. Beneath the Surface
9. Lines in the Sand
10. Home
11. In the Name of God
------------------------------
12. A Change of Seasons

Afterlife
Blind Faith
Under A Glass Moon
Beyond This Life
The Root of All Evil

[philmcson]

Your majesty (for the lolz, of course  )

Clockwork angels
Lines in the sand
The dance of eternity
The day that never comes

As I am
Paranoid
These walls
Critical acclaim
In the presence of enemies
Come undone
The shattered fortress
Shoulda coulda woulda
Bridges in the sky
Immigrant song

Oh, and I was thinking no one would ever take notice.... 

[The Letter M]

Here's another one... the Rarities Playlist:

Don't Look Past Me
The Answer Lies Within
Where Are You Now?
Wither
Through Her Eyes (ext. w/Sax Solo)
Light Fuse And Get Away
Disappear
You Or Me
A Vision
Prophets Of War
Vacant/Stream Of Consciousness
Space-Dye Vest
Encore: Far From Heaven/Breaking All Illusions

I went with POW instead of "Repentance" since it would be more likely a choice. Besides, there's enough 'mellow' songs in the set.

It's about a 100 minute show, but I'm sure there could be some jams and extended solos thrown in there as well.

-Marc.

[Unlegit]

Bridges in the Sky
This Dying Soul
In the Presence of Enemies
A Fortune in Lies
These Walls
A Mind Beside Itself (if allowed, if not Scarred)
~Intermission~
Beyond This Life
Trial of Tears
Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence
The Count of Tuscany
~Encore 1~
Metropolis
~Encore 2~
A Change of Seasons (if allowed)

Now that would be a great show!

[MoraWintersoul]

Though the rest of the setlist could actually go fuck itself, if only there were Eve.

That's why I have it in mine.

[Scorpion]

Alright.

Metropolis
Blind Faith
Fatal Tragedy
The Killing Hand
Scarred
Repentance
Trial of Tears
Wither
Breaking All Illusions
In the Name of God
--- Encore ---
Eve
A Change of Seasons

That would work.

I wonder how it would sound if their live music fucked itself o.O

And indeed, great setlist you have there. May I touch it? :3

*sigh* But only one night. And don't forget that ultimately, she's mine.

[The Presence of Frenemies]

A Change of Seasons
Peruvian Skies
The Killing Hand
Home
Octavarium
(break)
In The Presence of Enemies (full)
Build Me Up, Break Me Down
Voices
The Glass Prison
The Best of Times
In The Name Of God

Encore: Learning To Live

Tough to make a longer setlist than this, really. Only thing that could lengthen it significantly would be including one of the FII or ADTOE epics.

[GasparXR]

Alright.

Metropolis
Blind Faith
Fatal Tragedy
The Killing Hand
Scarred
Repentance
Trial of Tears
Wither
Breaking All Illusions
In the Name of God
--- Encore ---
Eve

That would work.

Sounds like a deal. I hope your okay with sloppy thirteenths, because I fuck 12 times a night.
