I've seen all of 6 degrees, Octavarium, ITPOE and....that's it. I've been dying to see ACOS, but no luck so far.

I've only seen TCOT. I think if there is one epic they are likely to play again (in full), it would be ACOS. I think we'll still get parts of Octavarium and TCOT in medleys... and of course they still play parts of 6DOIT and ITPOEpt1 now and then.

Remember on the TOT tour ACOS was played quite often. The EW format allows them a lot more freedom with the setlists. Look back on the tourography during the TOT and 8V tours, there was some major epicry happening on many of the shows. I would count on the AA saga being played on the next tour more than once. You should also see some of the mini epics(12 to 17 min. songs) also. It's much easier to play with a 3 hour set than a 90 or 2 hour set.

I can see the 12 Step Saga being the second set the way that 6D's was the 2nd set of that tour.
Also, The Best Of Times would be a hell of a way to close the first set!

But please..no more medleys!
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

I believe it was scheduled to be played at our show and had to be cut because of the late start.  >:(  Still, it was a good show, and I hope that tape miraculously surfaces one day.

I assume you're talking about the Warfield?? I've been looking for that tape forever. I had attended many shows on that tour, somehow that master came up MIA.

That was a hell of  setlist anyway! ACOS was played in Boston that tour, though sadly I missed the show... >:(
But I did see ACOS on the brief ACOS tour in the summer of '95. :)

I hope you have good aim because I also saw it live twice. ;D

Well, that was total luck.  When the M:2000 dates came out for Feb/March of 2000, St. Louis didn't have a date, so four of us got tickets for the Orlando concert (dead center in the first row of the balcony), and then a buddy, who was going and who had tons of frequent flier miles, got us all plane tickets with those, so it was like a mini-vacation.  St. Louis was then added on as an extra date in the middle of the tour days after we got all of our tickets, so we were like, "Screw it, let's go to that one, too!" :lol  So, we did. :biggrin:

If DT goes into retirement before I hear Octavarium live, I may actually cry.  Possibly go into a depression over it for like a week.  I want to hear that song so much live.  I would kill.

I agree. I'd actually really like to see Octavarium and...not sure...maybe War Inside My Head live. But I doubt that will ever happen.  :sadpanda:
