Look forward to it - and the Armored Saint even a bit more tbh.

The Armored Saint cannot come soon enough!
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Was there any mention of VIP tickets yet?  I don't recall seeing anything.  I thought the $50 value was great for what we got last tour on the meet and greets -- sound check, photos, lots of time to talk to the band, etc.  Good stuff.

When I was looking at their current tour dates, there was a banner at the bottom announcing an exclusive European show coming in 2016 with the original Awaken the Guardian lineup playing AtG *IN ITS ENTIRETY* along with other Arch-era material!!

No date or venue yet...just "coming in 2016".

Parallels is a well produced album, and one of the best albums of the 1990s. The Eleventh Hour is the jewel of this album. Monument is a piece de resistance, but overall Inside Out defers greatness to albums like Disconnected and Awaken The Guardian (and A Pleasant Shade of Gray, which gets better after each listen).  Nonetheless, the Parallels / Inside Out combo is miles above the combo that the great Iron Maiden released in the same time period.

that's cool and all, and I'll likely be picking it up as I'll admit to be a huge fanboy, but I gotta believe I'm not the only one wondering if a VINYL edition could come out for an anniversary/deluxe, etc. Maybe for the 20th anniversary in 2017?

I'm very much hoping that this reissue means a tour in 2016 in which the band plays APSOG in its entirety start to finish.  I seem to recall Jim mentioning in previous interviews that he'd like to do that at some point.  And Ray mentioned at a meet and greet in 2013 that the band had their eye on doing it.

Yes. Frank is NOT touring this time around. It's Michael Abdow taking his place.

Great news on the APSOG reissue. Can't wait to get it.

Yeah that's why I skipped last round (2014/2015).. to me without the Jim/Frank chemistry I'm just not sure I want to go.

I seen them in Cleveland on the last tour. MA did a very good job playing Frank's stuff. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised if you decided to give it a go.

I'm wondering if the autographed editions of APSOG being signed by the current lineup or the lineup that appeared on the album featuring Zonder and Moore?  I posted the question on FW's Facebook thread about the reissue, but I haven't heard back yet.

And Ray mentioned at a meet and greet in 2013 that the band had their eye on doing it.
Mike, when Ray talked about that, did he really mention inviting Kevin Moore by name or "the original album's lineup" verbatim? I'm really interested, obviously I would die to see it.

He did say that they'd invite Kevin, but he added that you never know what Kevin is up to -- so they'd have to see how it played out. :)

my roommate/best friend Tony's band Imminent Sonic Destruction is the support for the east coast portion of FW's tour. You guys should check them out, I'd assume you'll like them

https://imminentsonicdestruction.bandcamp.com/album/recurring-themes

they've got a new record coming out this year, too.

if anyone wants to meet me I'll be at the October 16th show :P

Well, I'd shoot a load if FW ever did an album with both Ray Alder and John Arch. For that matter, I'd shoot one if they just did another Arch\Matheos album. Sympathetic Resonance was so f*cken good.
