Awful lot of time (and possible venues) between these two dates:
Oct. 12 - New York, NY - Beacon Theatre (With Trivium)
Oct. 22 - Cleawater, FL - Ruth Eckerd Hall
Hoping the Carolinas aren't skipped over, but wouldn't be surprised in the least. When Asheville happened, I had an out of body experience.
-
Showbox SODO? Any PNW locals ever been there? I didn't think that place is very big.
-
Wow, Nokia Theater in LA. Didn't expect that. That's a pretty sizeable venue for DT to play.
-
No CT = sad panda
-
I'm guessing somewhere between New York and Florida they will hit DC/Baltimore
This tour might be hard for me to attend with those dates though :(
-
Fuck! Why are all the dates near me week nights? The closest venue to me is NYC and that's a four or five hour drive when I can't leave work till 4pm...they better stop by DC/BALT or I wont be seeing them this tour :/
-
So Guys, when do You think 2leg european dates will shown off? ;D ;D :metal :metal

Have a feeling there's a bit of a break between those two dates. We'll see.

No Ohio = fuck. I really don't want to have to skip classes on a tuesday to go from Columbus, OH to Pittsburgh for the show. >:(

What is flat?

Can't be any smaller than the Fenix Underground, which is where I saw them for the FII tour in Seattle. I prefer the smaller venues.

DREAM THEATER Y U NO PHILADELPHIA?

Oct. 25 - Houston, TX - Verizon Wireless Theater (With Trivium)
Oct. 26 - Austin, TX - Paramount Theatre Austin (With Trivium)
A little bit of Monica in my life,
A little bit of Erica by my side.
A little bit of Rita's what I need,
A little bit of Tina's what I see.
A little bit of Sandra in the sun,
A little bit of Mary all night long.
A little bit of Jessica here I am,
A little bit of you makes me your man!
-
DREAM THEATER Y U NO PHILADELPHIA?
I have a feeling they'll anounce a date there soon.
-
Looking like la for me unless they add a san Diego. Cannot wait
-
No Chicago?! :omg:
-
Feels like theirs gonna be a lot more still to be announced.

DREAM THEATER Y U NO PHILADELPHIA?
I'm feeling your pain buddy. I was shocked to see no Philly date, especially since they have played Philly on pretty much every tour over the past 10 years and I was hoping they would play the Tower just as they did on the BC&SL tour. I'm just crossing my fingers that not all the dates have been revealed yet. Otherwise I'm gonna be pretty upset.
-
No Chicago?! :omg:
There is 4 days between Vancouver and Michigan....just sayin'...I sure hope there is a chicago
-
Hey all. I'm new around these parts. Think I found a part time home. Vancouver and a 4 hour drive to Seattle for me. SuperStoked!!!! :metal
-
If I had to guess- it would go Minnesota to Chicago to Michigan
-

This. I really hope they come to SD. They only come every few years though. But last time they were here was in '07 so maybe.

I'm holding out for a Philly date as well. However, I really wish that they'd play the Keswick Theater instead of the Tower. Saw them for the first time on the PN '09 tour there, and I wasn't impressed with the venue at all. The Keswick has a much more intimate atmosphere, and Glenside is just a nicer area than Upper Darby overall.
-
I'm waiting for a DC/Baltimore show too, I'd be pleased if there was no Trivium though.
-
I'm crossing my fingers for a stop in STL. ::)
-
Austin....
Didnt see that comin!!!!!
Fn great!

The Keswick is for Jazz concerts and fail comedy shows (I've seen some acts there which I liked). It's not really the right kind of setting for a metal show, which is what DT is. I love going to the Tower to see them and I hope they come back again.

Hey Nick where did u get the list from?
It seems to have changed.
I didnt see clearwater fl.... There's pompano beach.
The austin show says @ bass hall not paramount.
?????
-
Sept 24, first night of the US leg, yeahhh! I wonder if we'll get new songs?
-
Places des Arts is a really nice venue. I'm glad the Montréal show is there.
-
I'm crossing my fingers for a stop in STL. ::)
That would make me incredibly happy. As of now, the closest place to me, I believe, is the Austin, Texas date
-

No. U come here.
I actually had already thought about it

Hmmmm, that's interesting considering that Queensryche plays there all the time (they're actually gonna be there on the 11th of this month). I've also seen G3 with Malmsteen there back in '03, as well as Joe Satriani in '04. Wasn't really all that impressed with the Tower when I saw DT there in '09. I think that the Keswick has better acoustics, as well as an all around better atmosphere. I'm still gonna go see them this year no matter what venue they play, I'm just stating my preference.
-
Love that they're playing at Massey Hall in TO! They've been playing the Molson Amphitheatre since SC, cannot wait for them to be back at the beautiful theatre that is Massey Hall.
-
Anaheim would be great on a Monday night, but I'd still drive to San Diego for a second showing. Has DT ever opened a leg in San Francisco before? Sounds like it could be a blast for those guys.
Also, if you like to see DT up close and sweaty on stage, don't buy the VIP at the Warfield, they stick you in the seated area upstairs. Get the GA ticket and arrive early like any good DTFer would do.
-
Wow, just noticed that I Love All Access is handling the VIP - went to their Megadeth VIP event and was enormously impressed with the level customer service and package amenities (including an open bar and catering!!)
Anyone have any insight when L.A. tix go on sale?
-
No CT = sad panda
I just checked the Oakdale's schedule. Nothing is scheduled for October yet until the 15th. A CT date is still plausible.

Press release says that "a brand new tour production unlike any other that we've done before."
Any speculation?
I interpret it to mean "since we're not having rotating setlists, we're doubling our efforts to kick ass in other ways." Wonder what they're planning, and I hope it makes me want to see multiple shows on this leg.
-
No Az, or Co makes me a sad panda.
I wouldn't mind traveling to see them if they came there, but we have to wait and see. If they come to New Mexico and not pass through, I'll be a happy happy man.

And evening and a half with Dream Theater? 4.5 hour sets?
-

Im with you there! So much better than the big Molson. Although I do love having a waterpark right beside the venue.. :D
-
There's a day between LA and Seattle. I sure hope they add Portland because I won't be able to travel this year.
-
If they don't come withing 4 hours on Raleigh, NC I will be quite disappointed. I've gotta think that between NYC and Clearwater, FL they will stop in VA or NC. I NEED TO SEE THEM!
-

I live just north of Charlotte and I wish they would come to the Charlotte or Raleigh area. I saw them in Asheville in 2009 so there's a chance they'll come back to NC.

I'm guessing brand new video presentations (ans screens), kick-ass lightning and hopefully, some real stage decorations (not like the ants).

Hope so. I live in Wilmington and it would be nice not to have to drive 400 miles to see them.

Hmmm Can I haz Bmore/DC tour date?? Somewhere in that gap after the 12th? Can I haz??

No. U come here.

Being a college student around Philly, I myself am nearly praying for their arrival here!
-
Places des Arts is a really nice venue. I'm glad the Montréal show is there.
Really? I saw PT there in 2010 and I was disappointed...I mean, sure, it's really nice, but I don't want to be rocking out while I'm stuck sitting in theatre seats with very little leg room. I'd much rather stand.
-

I have sadly left and went to San Diego for a while and am now in LA....
miss TX on many levels
-
So should I wait to see if a San Diego show will be announced or should I deal with the L.A show? Tickets go on sale a 5.
-
Does anyone have any idea if there are more VIP package location to be announced? On the Facebook account it says:
Limited Dream Theater Meet & Greet and Tour packages for all North American dates available at https://bit.ly/DreamVIP!
And the Toronto date isn't listed with a meet-and-greet. Any idea if I should wait for one to be announced, or get my ticket as soon as they go on sale?

I have the same problem man. I am stuck here.
but dream theaters website says "meet and greets will be avaliable for ALL shows"
Im thinking they announce it tomorrow and meet and greets go on sale friday at 5pm
-
I'd like to hold out for a Philly show, too, but I guess there's no guarantee that there will be one. The last time I gave up on it, I bought tickets for Pittsburgh or NJ (can't remember which), and they announced a Philly show right after I paid for tickets.
-
I was just wondering why Meet & Greet packages weren't available during european part of this tour this summer? :(
-
I really don't see a time where Arizona fits into this schedule. My guess is it will be pushed back and happen after this leg :(
-
Alright, it's seriously time for them to announce a Philly date now....

Hopefully. Tix to the public go for sale Friday at 12pm. I'm hoping a TO meet-and-greet is announced before then. If not, I'm gonna have to get my ticket. I better not get screwed and have the meet-and-greet (if it happens) announced after I buy my ticket.
-
Dear Dream Theater,
Rest of the dates please. Unless there aren't any in NC or SC or Atlanta, in which case James LaBrie you broke your promise to come back and I will hate you forever.
(loljk but srsly come back to Asheville)

I hope they return to NC also. If they do, I hope they play more in the center of the state. Asheville is about 350 miles from me. Charlotte or Raleigh would be much better. That gap between Oct 12 and Oct 22 is where I'm expecting to see them. Hopefully in NC. If not, it will be Baltimore, Virginia or Georgia.
-
I'm ready for them to release more dates. I need Atlanta. :metal

Alright, it's seriously time for them to announce a Philly date now....

Raleigh would be perfect for me. I live in Durham and I would definitely be willing to make the drive to Asheville/Charlotte or even VA/SC, but Raleigh would be wonderful. I know that on JLB's solo tour he had Raleigh scheduled as one of his first stops. Unfortunately that tour never happened, I'm sure they can make it up to me somehow... ;D
-
As I've never been to a Dream Theater concert before... I am dying to go as soon as possible. I was hoping that I would get a chance this fall, but none of the current concerts are close enough for me. I know they plan on releasing more dates. What is the likelihood that they will have another North American leg next summer? or sooner? with Prog Nation or whatever? I'm starting to get anxious. :-\

Hey, How about at DPAC? That is a great venue for a show. That is the Durham Performing Arts Center for those who do not live in NC. Has DT ever played in SC? Up until 2 years ago, they had never played in NC. I made the trip to Asheville to see them, but really hope I don't have to drive that far again. There is a very nice House of Blues in North Myrtle Beach. Would be awesome if they made a stop there as that is only 1 hours drive from my home. Don't think that will happen as I don't see them coming east of I-95 in NC.

Portnoy promised they would come back for a headliner for BC&SL here in AZ, never happened.

I go to school in Greenville, SC, so Asheville is a manageable drive for me. I'm from Raleigh, and driving 4 hours for a concert in October is a bit much. Charlotte I could probably do though. But I did make the trip from Raleigh to Asheville for PN09 and it was so so worth it. :metal

Just announced....10/17 @ Warner Theatre in Washington....on sale 8/12
Wow! Warner Theater is a beautiful facility. I could see myself doing a show there. Will have to if they don't come any closer to NC. Where did you see the announcement? I didn't see it on the Warner website or at DT.net.
-
Hmmm, one thing that I will say about all of this is that if Portnoy was still in the band, I'd be able to go ask on his forum about a Philly date, and he'd most likely respond with an answer. I sent a tweet to both James and John asking about the big gap that's in the tour calendar and got nothing. I think that they could be a little more professional with announcing all of these dates. A lot of them aren't even being announced on the official DT website, and it seems like you really have to scour the internetz to find them as they're being leaked. Just saying...
-
Portnoy promised they would come back for a headliner for BC&SL here in AZ, never happened.
Join the club. I actually passed on seeing them in Cali specifically because of that promise. As I've said in the past, for every example of his contact with the fans being a good thing, there's one where it bites me in the ass.
Personally, every date on this tour is a mess for me. I was really wanting to travel and see a couple of these, but I'll probably have to do that with a different band over the winter.
Also, all of the announcements and onsale dates being scattered really sucks ass. I bought Houston tickets this morning, largely because I have no idea on Earth whether or not there'll be a Dallas date. They'll probably announce that one today.

Would be nice if they would announce all the dates at once. Would make it easy for the people that are trying to string together multiple shows. I would like to see a couple of shows on this tour, so it would help with planning travel to the cities I want and in booking hotel rooms. Not to mention letting my boss know when I want off for vacation time. I was just at the Trans Siberian Orchestra forum and they have their winter tour schedule lined up. They make it easy for the fans that want to see more than one show.

:facepalm:
The dates that have been announced are the only ones confirmed. It's not up to Dream Theater, it's up to the label, the promoters and the management. I can assure you more dates will come in that big gap.
Also, it's not like a lot of people check dt.net. I have seen that facebook has become much more populated and it has become a quick source of information.
I don't know if you know, but dt.net is run by Itchy, a webmaster that's really not one of the best webmasters out there. If the dates aren't on that site, is because of Itchy and not because of anybody else.

Yes, I'm well aware of that. All I'm saying is this: If this were 2 years ago, and there was a big gap like this in the touring schedule, there's no doubt in my mind that Portnoy would be posting on his forum saying, "Hey guys, these aren't confirmed yet, but we're trying to get *insert various cities/venues here* worked out, so hang tight!" I'm not very impressed with the "fan interaction" right now when it comes to this.
-
Really hoping D.C. isn't the closest date to me. 5 hours away on a Monday night in October is impossible for me to make.
-
Alright, it's seriously time for them to announce a Connecticut date now....
-
Well, they are in DC on Oct 17 and Pompano Beach, Fla on Oct 21. So, unless the hit Va, NC or SC in between, it's gonna be only one show and a 800 mile (400 each way) road trip to see them. Really wish they played shows closer together. Maybe they will be within distance on the second leg? Shit!
-
All you Philly peeps will be happy! October 16 is your show.
-
They are in Orlando on Oct. 23. I don't know why Florida gets three dates. Hopefully, they will hit the Carolinas or at least Atlanta in between the 17th and 21st
-
Chicago on October 2nd and Salt Lake City, UT on September 30th.
I will going to Chicago instead of Pittsburgh.
-
All you Philly peeps will be happy! October 16 is your show.
where?

Merriam Theater.

I guess they finally outgrew the Tower. Merriam looks gorgeous. Is it a better neighborhood?
-
isn't the Tower big than the Merriam?
-
Tower 3,119
Merriam is about 1700 i believe.

Tower 3,119
Merriam is about 1700 i believe.
Wow! Since their fanbase has grown every time I've seen them, I wonder why they went for smaller venues this time.
-
There has to be a CT date between the 12th and the 16h
-
Portnoy promised they would come back for a headliner for BC&SL here in AZ, never happened.
Also, all of the announcements and onsale dates being scattered really sucks ass. I bought Houston tickets this morning, largely because I have no idea on Earth whether or not there'll be a Dallas date. They'll probably announce that one today.
Ha, ha!!!!
They just did!!!!!
And maybe salt lake is closer to u too......

Have you been to any of the last 4 times they've played the Tower??? The attendance has gotten smaller and smaller each time. I doubt they had even 1,800 people there on the BC&SL tour. No choice but to downsize!

I personally don't think their fanbase has grown in North America at all. If anything, it's decreased.
-

That would make sense, unless they are taking a few days off.
-
I've been to every Philly show since 97. I thought I remembered it being really packed, but my wife says otherwise. I guess it was just me. ???

Yep, it's the truth. I was there for the PN '09 tour (BC&SL), and they definitely didn't pack it. Why play a venue as big as the Tower when you're struggling to fill it each time? I'm not a big fan of the Tower anyway, nor the neighborhood of Upper Darby for that matter. I'd much rather see them play in a more intimate venue in an artsy community.
-
The last time they packed the Tower was in '02 on the 6DOIT tour. It has been steadily decreasing on each stop there since. Don't know why, but that's just the way it's been. :tdwn
-
It is strange, because I remember the 6DOIT tour, and one of the security guys was saying that if the crowd gets much bigger they were going to have to find somewhere bigger to play.
So is the neighborhood much better wherever Merriam is? Also, can anyone recommend a good place to eat close to there?
-
Man, between this and Opeth I'm really drawing the short end of the stick on concert dates. I need to get out of SW Virginia NAO.
-
I keep hoping for an Atlanta date, I hope they haven't finished announcing.
-
New dates have been added: https://www.dreamtheater.net/tourdates.php#natourdates
-
Chances of an AZ date if they spend some time in Texas... maybe... hopefully...
-
chances of a milwaukee date seem non-existent now
-
Still holding out for a Minnesota show on October 1st...
-
No St.Louis? :( :sadpanda:
-
Still holding out for a Minnesota show on October 1st...
Me too! Come on DT, MN missed the Iron Maiden tour...
-
Dear Dream Theater,
Rest of the dates please. Unless there aren't any in NC or SC or Atlanta, in which case James LaBrie you broke your promise to come back and I will hate you forever.
(loljk but srsly come back to Asheville)
-SDN
I hope they return to NC also. If they do, I hope they play more in the center of the state. Asheville is about 350 miles from me. Charlotte or Raleigh would be much better. That gap between Oct 12 and Oct 22 is where I'm expecting to see them. Hopefully in NC. If not, it will be Baltimore, Virginia or Georgia.
Raleigh would be perfect for me. I live in Durham and I would definitely be willing to make the drive to Asheville/Charlotte or even VA/SC, but Raleigh would be wonderful. I know that on JLB's solo tour he had Raleigh scheduled as one of his first stops. Unfortunately that tour never happened, I'm sure they can make it up to me somehow... ;D
Hey, How about at DPAC? That is a great venue for a show. That is the Durham Performing Arts Center for those who do not live in NC. Has DT ever played in SC? Up until 2 years ago, they had never played in NC. I made the trip to Asheville to see them, but really hope I don't have to drive that far again. There is a very nice House of Blues in North Myrtle Beach. Would be awesome if they made a stop there as that is only 1 hours drive from my home. Don't think that will happen as I don't see them coming east of I-95 in NC.
DPAC would be awesome. I recently went to a concert there (about 1 month ago) and I couldn't stop thinking how awesome it would be to have DT play there. Of course DPAC is also about 5 minutes from my house :biggrin:
-
Still holding out for a Minnesota show on October 1st...
Highly doubtful that they'll do 4 shows in a row. Sorry. :tdwn
-
I thought there was a CO date...Fucking insane if they only come as close as Texas.
-
I'm losing hope for a CT date. Idk why they wouldnt, they've played Wallingford the last five tours.
-

Me too. It sucks because that venue is awesome! and only a half hour drive for me.
-
Still waiting on any info about when tickets go on sale for the Chicago date.
-
Since it would appear that all major markets (except a few) are covered on this leg in North America, does that mean no second leg?
-
Ugh! Still really hoping for a Phoenix date between Utah and Illinois...looks like the whole southwest is missing so far. :angry:
-
I would almost certainly expect a Denver show, and that's when they'd hit Arizona. My guess would be a few nights off after three straight nights in Tejas, followed by the SW stretch.
One thing that might screw that theory up is that they seem to avoiding GA venues. The place they've booked here is 3x bigger than what they can sell, but fully seated, and they passed over a couple of appropriately sized GA venues that they would have packed. Seems like where they usually played in Den was a club.
-

There has to be a second leg, they are missing some crucial areas that draw very well for DT. Ohio always has a FANTASTIC draw whenever DT comes through.
-
Thanks RMV for the response.
I just can't wait to see them. I'm guessing the 2nd leg would be between March-May or so
-

You're welcome.
I also believe JP said that they would be coming around next year with a second European and American leg starting somewhere in the spring. I forget exactly where he said that, but it was some user-filed video of after a show.
-
Yeah, that was outside the Rome show when he was talking to fans

Yeah a second leg seems likely. I'm hoping that they will be able to get the Carolinas/VA, since they don't seem to have them scheduled for this leg.

Ugh! Still really hoping for a Phoenix date between Utah and Illinois...looks like the whole southwest is missing so far. :angry:
If they skip Phoenix/Arizona in general I will not be a happy fan. It will be the third straight tour that they have skipped the state.

This looks more likely every day unless they decide to add a few days onto the tour following the Texas, which is a better chance than what other areas have since you don't have to worry the difference between two dates.

Yeah I was looking at it again, and thats the only way they hit AZ or Colorado for that matter. I would consider going to Denver since I have extensive family there.
-
I really want to know why they are not playing there standard Connecticut Oakdale show? It really sucks big time!
-
Well, I know They won,t be coming to NM. As all bands just pass on through. I"d laugh hard if we got a date and CO. And AZ didn't.
-
I really want to know why they are not playing there standard Connecticut Oakdale show? It really sucks big time!
because they knew you were hoping for one ?
-
Sept 24, first night of the US leg, yeahhh! I wonder if we'll get new songs?
We most definitely will.
-

Im bummed man. Its such and awesome venue.

Indeed it is. I still cling to faint hope it will happen. Why wouldn't they play a successful regular stop on there tour?

I'm still hoping too man. If memory serves me right, they have announced the Wallingford day way later than the initial dates the last two tours. It just seems like there has to be with a four day break in the schedule when they are in this part of the country.

I had such a vivid dream last night that I was looking at a date announced for CT. I woke up this morning believing it. I checked the internets and got really sad.

ohshitohshitohshit
that would rule. would consider going to a second show if confirmed
-
Well Periphery is definitely confirmed for October 16 at the Kimmel Center (https://www.kimmelcenter.org/events/?venue=235).
-
Ugh :censored There are NY shows on the 12th and 15th. Why can't there be a CT date in bewteen!? :'(
-
Unfortunately it's almost certain they won't add an extra date in that gap because it would mean the band playing 4 dates in a row, which is almost unheard of.
-
Assuming they do a second NA leg (most likely after the January February European dates), I hope they come to the Carolinas/VA as it seems impossible that they will stop there for this leg.
-

I here ya Chino. This really bums me out. Wallingford is such an easy trip for me and I love the venue. Going to NYC becomes a very pricey evening. I'll probably drop about 200 bucks between the ticket, train, food, and drink. I'm not sure I want to do that.
-
DT is pissing me off! Why the hell would they skip the Oakdale? There's no way in hell I'm going to NYC. :tdwn

I know man. I'm really bummed. I have seen them there every tour since 2004, and it's such an awesome venue. Its a real shame. I have several friends seeing them in either NY or Boston, but I can't swing that during school.

I'm caving and going to The Beacon. It pisses me off I can't see them at Oakdale! I don't get it.
-
I guess I'm lucky to have the means to do so, but i'm making the trip to Chicago from Columbus, OH, a 7 hour drive to see them. They need to add Ohio to their 2nd leg schedule, because I'm not making this trip a second time. $200 for one show is hurting.
-
I wonder when a 2nd leg will happen. With them taking a 1-2 months off between legs, I don't see it happening until the summer
-

My guess would be starting June as well.
-
I think a summer tour would be more convenient for legions of fans and it would also be prime time for them to hit Australia, Indonesia, the Phillippines, etc. I want them to spread their music as far as they can and then come back with the 12th album and be absolute kings, as they already are in many eyes. :metal
