[jcmistat]

Lost Not Forgotten is going to be played! I hope they surprise us with This is the Life too. Its been two weeks since I bought my tickets, time is somewhat flying. This show is going to kick some serious ass.

Was talking to one of my new co workers and I told her how excited I was to see DT again and she was like "When!??!" I told her the date and she immediately wrote it down. Now I get to ask her about DT related stuff. I brought it up because she mentioned she went to Opeth/Mastodon couple weeks ago in Oakland.

I saw the FB post about Lost Not Forgotten, should be cool, maybe replace Build me up, Break me down with it.  This is the Life would be just plain awesome.

Still trying to decide what the game-day plans will consist of.

It's in the works. We need to have a roll call here for a meet up, sound like yeshaberto and I are in, fiery winds is if he mans up and buys a ticket, the new girl says she's in.  jcmistat hasn't said anything, and bosk is trying to fit us into his insanely busy schedule.

[TAC]

Wow sounds awesome! If I wasn't married with kids and had a life here, I'd be happy to join. 

[lonestar]

They can be such an inconvenience at times, makes it easier that most of us are single and live 25 miles or less from the venue.

[TAC]

It's all good. I don't know of the San Fran guys made it into the Boston thread but Kingshmegland is 10 seats away from me in the same row, so I'll have at least one DTF buddy.

[King Postwhore]

That's right!  Nick is comming to the Rush Show in Manchester in Sept.  So we'll have a meet up for that.

[mallorier]

Yup yup I'd still love to at least swing by and meet you fine people! Still trying to work out logistics with my crew, but yeah....45 days all!!!! Anyone else freaking out already? I have the entire month of June mapped out to the day with uber nerdy fan activity goodness that me and a few friends will be partaking in

  Hey, you know what the deal is.

[jcmistat]

If I'm not at the meet up spot I hope see you in the venue!

Aaaaaaaaah!!!!!!! Guys!!!! 5 weeks until the show *commences spastic kermit-esque arm flailing*!!! Anyone else already getting amped up?

Oh hell yes I am. Thinking about doing another discography marathon like I did when I bought the tickets.

[mallorier]

Dude...seriously? Unreal! I literally have the month of June mapped out to the day for a month long discography marathon/study with my Ashland crew! Starting with WDADU June 1st and 2nd, I&W June 3rd, 4th and 5th, and so on all the way up to ADTOE June 29th, which coincides with my arrival in the Land of Ashes and subsequent reunion with my merry band of fellow DT fans. You bet your a** we'll be listening to that album on the drive from Ashland to San Fran on the morning of the 1st 

So hells yes! Marathon away! That would be a really cool feeling, knowing that more people had the same experience in their own unique way leading up to the show, and I am all about that kind of stuff 

[lonestar]

When the last SF show was here, it was like two weeks after the release of ADTOE. I spun that thing straight through in preperation for the show.

We prog geeks are all a special breed.

[yeshaberto]

love the marathon idea, mallorier...

just booked my ticket to SFO - yoohoo!

looking forward to the meetup as well

[lonestar]

Me too, get to add a few more DTFers to my list.  I think 5pm would be a good time, it takes maybe ten minutes tops to walk from Lefty's to the Warfield. Unless your in GA and want front row, getting there by seven gets good seats.  My buddy got there around that time and were center stage about twenty feet back and elevated above the first peeps.  Really not a bad seat there though as long as your not stuck deep in the wings.

[jcmistat]

3 weeks and 2 days!!! I'm debating if I should check the set list when they start the tour in a week. Knowing me I probably won't be able to resist.

[lonestar]

I'm pretty sure I won't be able to.

Best part of being first last time, no opportunity to look.

[yeshaberto]

I only plan on checking out the setlist of the opening band so I can get familiar with their stuff

[lonestar]

My will power isn't nearly that strong.

[jcmistat]

I'm pretty sure I won't be able to.

I still looked at the Europe's set list and we got similar songs.

[lonestar]

Yeah, but we knew we were getting a ton of new songs for the first time ever too.

[mallorier]

Aaaaaah 20 days!!!!!! It's friggin ON!!!!! I am currently on FII in the June DT marathon...I imagine by the time TOT rolls around I will just be useless to society until showtime lol! I've been pondering setlist spoilers as well...I would really prefer to be surprised at the show, so I'm gonna try my hardest to resist the temptation to peak

[lonestar]

Just two weeks and a day now, and nine of those I am on vacation. Should be a breeze. Can't fucking wait!!!!

[jcmistat]

So far I've resisted looking at the set list. Its only been one day

[lonestar]

Officially less than two weeks away.

[yeshaberto]

 

[lonestar]

Eight days motherfuckers!!!!!!!!!!






So who's in for the meet up? Lefty O'Douls, I'll be there around 5, it's about 4 blocks from the theater and the Powell St. BART station is in between both.

[yeshaberto]

If my flights on time I will c u there

[lonestar]

 

[lonestar]

[Fiery Winds]

Just got my ticket.
