I've decided I am doing the Meet and Greet. I don't want to miss this opportunity when I do have the money and regret it later in life.

Tickets just went up for viewing today. They will be on sale April 27. Meet and Greets are listed as "Coming Soon."

Post by: ResultsMayVary on April 23, 2012, 01:08:28 PM
Tickets on sale this Friday at 10am.

Has anyone been to this venue before? According to the seating chart, they have GA behind the grandstand, and if that's true, I'm putting out for grandstand tickets rather than GA. Can anyone confirms these specifics for the show?

^ I wish I could fill you in, but Ive never been to this venue before.

I finally made a decision and purchased my meet and greet. This is my going to be my third Dream Theater concert, and I'm really excited to finally be doing a M&G.

I created an account specifically for this thread.

I've seen Dream Theater three times so far and purchased a VIP ticket each time.  The June 21st show is no exception.  Unfortunately, none of my buddies had the funds to drop $275 on a Meet and Greet package so I'll probably be going solo.

For those who bought the VIP package, how do you know which section/seat/etc. you're in?  My receipt says the exact seat will be known when I arrive.

Hope to make some new friends and perhaps see some familiar faces.

Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Shadow2222 on May 10, 2012, 02:15:59 PM
I'd be up for that. I'm not yet 21, so I'd preferably like a place other than a bar (or a bar that has no policy regarding minors).

I'm gonna be going up with my friend straight from work, so I'll likely be starving if you guys would want to meet at a typical food place.

I do have the M&G, so we will have to do it early enough that it won't interfere with that.

Other than that, I'm definitely in.

Post by: Ultimetalhead on May 10, 2012, 02:24:43 PM
I'm under 21 as well. I know the area fairly well, but I'll do some research as to the best pre-concert meetup spots. What time is the meet and greet?
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Shadow2222 on May 10, 2012, 07:12:48 PM
^  :lol If I knew I'd tell you! It said I will get the itinerary emailed to me about a week before the show. Maybe we should set it up early enough that it won't interfere, and if it ends up we have extra time, so be it. Would that be ok with you? How early did you plan on getting to Cleveland?
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Ultimetalhead on May 10, 2012, 08:58:42 PM
I guess it kind of depends on when my Dad and I get off work, if we work that day at all. Once we see what would work for everyone, we could figure it out from there. I'd say 4:00 PM seems reasonable.
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Shadow2222 on May 10, 2012, 09:22:01 PM
As far as I know right now, 4:00 sounds perfect.

Seems like Powerhouse is kind of far away from the venue. Worse comes to worse, I say we meet at the venue way early (I'd assume we'll be the only ones around), and go from there.

Just upgraded my seats to the front row. Looks like I'll be right between JLB and JMX.  :metal

For anyone who feels like upgrading, there are a TON of awesome seats available (including the 2 in the second row that I just gave up to get the front).
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Shadow2222 on June 06, 2012, 12:31:32 PM
Haha, you might have better seats than me and I got a meet and greet (since it says "within first five rows"). Hopefully its not randomized so that I have a better chance of a decent seat.
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Ultimetalhead on June 06, 2012, 12:34:33 PM
I think the VIP stuff could be the reason I keep getting so lucky with upgrades. There were 6 seats wide open in the front row (4 now that I took two of them), and I think it could be because they released the seats that were a part of the VIP package, either because they aren't selling well or because the promo's over.

I hope something similar happens with the Detroit show, because I don't even have my tickets for that one yet, and the only seats left kind of suck.  :( Either way, as long as I get to see them once, I don't think I'll mind (especially with how ballin' the seats are).

It's kind of weird that they don't tell you where your seats are for the VIP package. Everyone else who has bought a ticket knows exactly where they're at because of the "pick your own" functionality (which is the bomb).
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Shadow2222 on June 06, 2012, 01:09:15 PM
I shot an email over to the contact email address asking if there was anyway to know the seats in advance, but I'm expecting "Unfortunately, that information is not available presently, but you will find out when you arrive at the venue."

Strange that they do it that way. I better have a front row seat if they are selling them outside of the VIP packages  :lol

Can't wait though, no matter where the seat is, at least I'm guaranteed to be within the first five rows.
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: RaiseTheKnife on June 06, 2012, 02:58:22 PM
My VIP purchase was completed at 10:02am, so I better damn well get front row center.  But yeah the mystery is absolutely bogus.
Title: Re: 2012-06-21 - Jacobs Pavilion - Cleveland, OH
Post by: Ultimetalhead on June 06, 2012, 03:40:10 PM
You should add RaiseTheKnife to the list of people attending, as I'm assuming he is.

Oh, and I decided the best place for a pre-show meetup would be Shooters on the Water. It's within walking distance of the venue, and it's right on the water. I'm starting to favor a 5:00 meetup time, considering I might have to work until 3 that day.  :\

Wow. That's a bummer. Everyone else is pretty much doing the meet and greet too, right?

Well, either way, we should specify a meeting place within the venue that we could just chill for a bit between Crimson Projekct and DT. Maybe we could meet at that same spot around 6:30 as well. I wouldn't think the meet and greet would take that long.

Check the post your picture thread in General Discussion, I'll likely post a photo tomorrow.

If I don't, its pretty easy to spot me. I'll have the A Dramatic Turn of Events black shirt (with the Unicyclist on the front) on, and I have three earrings on each side. Most likely won't be too many guys with six ear piercings lol.

I would seriously be 100% ok with that setlist, but I would really like Outcry instead of BAI, since Pittsburgh last year was one Of the only shows not to have both (the Great Debate was still in the set), and we got BAI.

Also, it's tomorrow!!!!!

I'm going to be crushed if they don't play BAI; such an epic song.  Does anyone know if there's anywhere to grub or maybe grab a beer?  The past few times I've seen Dream Theater they were at Tower City, but I've never been to Jacobs Pavilion.

Are you guys using smartphones? If so, periodically check in and possibly post a meeting spot lol. Not sure how else to do it. I know I have to be at the meet and greet place at 5, but Crimson doesn't go on until 730, so I'm sure we will have time.

My Dad has a smartphone. I guess whoever gets there first can pick a good spot that everyone would be able to easily access and post something here. Whoever it is, make sure to include a description of what you'll look like so we can find you. :p

For what it's worth, I'll be wearing my Majesty wristband along with my Black Clouds shirt. My Dad will most likely be wearing his DT hat.

Yea, that's a great point. Haha. We probably don't want 5 or 6 posts about the setlist in a row. :lol

Tower City shut down? I thought Jacobs Pavilion was just the new name for the old Nautica Pavilion nee Plain Dealer Pavilion?

I heard it's a relatively new venue. The last time DT played in Cleveland, the Jacobs Pavilion wasn't around, so they played in Tower City. Now that Tower City is shut down, they're playing Jacobs.
Tower City shut down? I thought Jacobs Pavilion was just the new name for the old Nautica Pavilion nee Plain Dealer Pavilion?

"The approximately 5,000-seat venue, opened in 2001, closed in March 2011 as part of a casino construction project.  The structure's future has not been determined.  As of July 2011, the structure was being used for covered parking."

From wikipedia

Well I'll be damned. I haven't been to that part of Cleveland lately. Jacobs is the old Nautica Pavilion though. Maiden played there on Bruce's first tour after he rejoined.

I know the feeling! Even if I didn't have the meet and greet at 5, I probably would have still left early. I've been trying to figure out what to say to them, and this is what I think I've decided on:

NOTE: The shirt I refer to with JP is the one I won in the setlist guessing contest last year on here.

JP: Hi John! I discovered you guys through Rock Band 2 and never looked back. I won this shirt in a setlist guessing contest on DreamTheaterForums.org last year, and apparently you gave it to the administrator, so if it would be okay, I'd really like to have you sign it.

If I have time I will also say: Any cool plans for the upcoming DVD, like a Bluray or 3D version? And you guys have to do a commentary, we love those!

JM: It's an honor to meet you John. You played some truly amazing parts on the last album, and I just wanted to thank you for the inspiring lyrics you have written throughout the years.

JR: Hey Jordan! All of the experimentation you've done with the iPad and other instruments is awesome! I really enjoyed your Stageit.com concert and hope you do more of them.

MM: Nice to meet you Mike. I think you are a perfect fit for DT, and you blew my mind last year live in Pittsburgh. I cannot wait to see you killing it out there tonight!

JLB: Hi James! You are an absolute inspiration to me, having chose singing as my particular instrument. I've never sang rock or metal, but I did a couple of plays in high school, playing Riff in West Side Story and Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof. I know you are interested in Broadway as well, and I hope you get the chance to do it someday. BTW, the forklift videos were hilarious!

Hopefully not too longwinded, and I feel somewhat stupid for having it planned out, but I don't want to waste time and/or get flustered.

I was trying to think of a place that there wouldn't be a ton of people.  As long as there isn't someone who's checking tickets to keep people from going all the way down there, we should be alright. I'll probably be hanging out there as soon as the gates open (6:30 I believe).

Damn. I've been having a really bad pre-concert day so far. I went to a gas station, and the fucking button to select the fuel type flat-out wouldn't work. So, I had to go to a different one. It was windy as hell, and my hair wouldn't get out of my damn face so I could see what I was doing. Then, I went home and found out that my earplugs have apparently been erased from existence.

This show had better brighten my day up.  :lol

I always bring them.  Occasionally, I won't use them.  But most venues nowadays (especially indoor venues) are so loud that I feel the need to protect my ears.

Honestly, I would recommend taking them. Even though it sort of "mutes" the audio slightly, you can actually hear everyone much better. Plus, the benefit of having your ears not destroyed is nice too haha.

A lot of people buy expensive earplugs for concerts, but a regular pair will do you just fine if you aren't an audiophile.

If you don't find earplugs just get some cotton wool to stuff into your ear. If you make sure that both ears have equally big self-made earplugs so that the sound isn't louder on one side. Compared to cheap, not reusable earplugs cotton wool actually takes less higher frequencies away, which results in better overall sound. (Otherwise the bass and the drums are all you hear if the mix isn't top notch).
When you've got time and money order some earplugs via the internet. Decent ones you can reuse will only cost you about 20 - 30$ and they hold for a few years if you take care of them. You can also go to a local shop that sells "high-end" earplugs, which don't take away the high frequencies at all and just make it quieter, without changing the sound (or at least not badly). However, those will cost you 200 $ if you get lucky and probably more.

Awesome pictures, Shadow. My Dad took about a hundred billion pictures, so I'll be sure to get some up here when he transfers them off his phone.

The Crimson band was Tony Levin (got a picture with him between sets), Adrian Belew, Julie Slick (from Adrian's solo band), and two drummers I didn't recognize. Tony was very animated and fun to watch.

Man, I haven't been keeping up. I didn't realize CP was a (partial) King Crimson band. I wish so much that they could have opened the European tour instead of who ever it was that we saw (can't even remember their name).

With Adrian Belew, Tony Levin, and Pat Mastelotto (on drums) it's half of the classic "double trio" line up (the other half was Robert Fripp, Bill Bruford, and Trey Gunn) which was dominant at least when I saw them last which was back in the early 90's before I moved from the States (not sure how many years they continued with that line up).

I am most definitely jealous I can't see two of my favorite bands/partial bands of all time together ;). Glad you enjoyed the show!

Tonight's Crimson setlist was....

Epic Drum Duel
Some improvy stuff
Dinosaur
Elephant Talk 
Red 
Frame By Frame
Thela Hun Ginjeet
Some song I hadn't heard before. One of the lines was "I REPEAT MYSELF WHEN I'M DISTRESSED I REPEAT MYSELF WHEN I'M DISTRESSED" or something like that. I lol'd.

The show was pretty badass. The crowd kind of sucked ass though. People in the front row sitting down. lolwut

Thanks! That's a pretty tasty setlist. That's 4 songs from "Discipline," one of my favorite KC albums. :metal

The only song that I haven't heard is "Dinosaur" but other than that, looks great!

A few thoughts about this show:

The venue was awesome. Outdoor show + canopy + breeze from the river and lake = very comfortable show.
The sound was much better than the Columbus show (mostly due to the fact the Columbus show was indoors).
I was able to appreciate the light show a lot more than the Columbus show.
And Mangini added a little drum intro to the beginning of A Fortune In Lies on top of the original DUN-DUN-DUN.

What do you think of the light show on this leg? It seems to change from show to show and leg to leg. This one seems a bit downsized compared to the first NA leg. I just wanted to hear what someone had to say before my show on Wednesday. The lights have changed on this tour compared to last leg. As shown below

I think the light show is pretty awesome. I'd say I like it as much as I did on the first leg. It's not really *that* awesome imho, but it was really cool in Cleveland the other night.

Does anyone else feel that Labrie killed it? I haven't heard Labrie sing surrounded like that in years.

^This. Discipline was my first real exposure to KC and I played that album to death! I was of course familiar with their earlier stuff (Red, ITCOTCK and so on) but the Discipline era was by far my favorite. I was fortunate enough to see them on the Discipline, Beat, and TOAPP tours... Those were really GREAT times!

I'm pretty sure he song Dinosaur was from the next incarnation in the 90's (that I mentioned earlier), either from Thrak or Vvroom... I like the song but it was more hit and miss for me with those and following albums.

Here's a video. It's cut a little short at the end though.

^ Yeah, I believe "Dinosaur" is from Thrak.

I'm more of a "classic" KC fan, from ItCotCK to Red but I really enjoy "Discipline."

Actually quite excited to see Crimson ProjeKct  :corn

Hmmm, would've never guessed  ;D. Don't get me wrong, I also like and appreciate the older (pre 80's incarnations of KC, I just have to be in the right mood or frame of mind (for lack of a better description) when I put it on.

It had actually been a while since I just sat down and listened to KC so all this talk about CP and so on got me digging up old videos and re listening to albums... I even put on Starless and Bible Black and Red ;). I do have a soft spot for ItCotCK as well. I loved the part in Children of Men when the that came on... gave me the chills big time!

I talked to Tobias and Pat for a while before the Detroit show, and he said their set depends on what Adrian feels like singing.  :lol

YES! Finally there is a boot of the current leg. I now own a bootleg of every leg of the ADTOE tour (including 2011 summer) except Asia, since it has the same setlist as 2012 Europe.

I'd still grab the Nagoya and Kanagawa shows. They sound excellent. I think better than the Euro shows.

We're getting predictable!  :lol

I gave a very basic listen to the key points of this bootleg. james sounds very, very good. He's getting confident with hard passages (read Metropolis) and he's holding notes longer and better than before :)

In a Maiden mood, for obvious reasons, today.
