I should stop reading this thread, I wanted to go to the Rome gig knowing absolutely no set spoilers after having the whole set spoiled last tour

Sorry, maybe I should have added a spoiler warning, although this is just us trying to make out vague words from a blurry video, so these aren't confirmed songs.

edit: Ok, I think I've figured out the other song and I've edited it into my last post.

genome · « **Reply #2242 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:20:59 AM »

It's cool, it's not definite, and only a couple of potential songs!

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #2243 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:24:20 AM »

I don't think I'll be able to make out more than those 4 anyway, and that's only about 35 minutes of predicted music out of a whole setlist. They'd be great choices though.

genome · « **Reply #2244 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:24:57 AM »

I'd be psyched for BTV!

Kotowboy · « **Reply #2245 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:33:04 AM »

As I Am would be good. It's not been on a DVD since Budokan has it ?

cramx3 · « **Reply #2246 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:34:37 AM »

BTV would be awesome and BitS would be fine, but As I am and Panic Attack get too much play from DT live. Good songs and all, but not songs that get me excited to see.

wasteland · « **Reply #2247 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:36:48 AM »

Well, in all fairness PA has been off the stages for the past 5 years!

By the way, perhaps it's better if we put the setlist discussion under spoiler or maybe move it under a different thread? People might be spoiled coming here looking for info about the new album.

Mladen · « **Reply #2248 on:** June 18, 2015, 05:18:24 AM »

My God, those would all be a thrill to see live! As for ACOS and Octavarium... One can only hope.

This is the perfect time to start speculating about the set list, I bought the ticket for the Vienna show just yesterday.

jonnybaxy · « **Reply #2249 on:** June 18, 2015, 05:45:44 AM »

I cant wait till July 9th.. travelling from England to Germany to watch DT...

But Haken and Devin Townsend are also the supports... BEST GIG EVER.

Implode · « **Reply #2250 on:** June 18, 2015, 08:55:54 AM »

Incredibly jealous of that. Once in a lifetime show for sure...

DreamerTV · « **Reply #2251 on:** June 18, 2015, 10:48:10 AM »

While i don't see any problem in this "silence strategy" about the new album, i don't really understand why there was no promotion at all about the upcoming tour. I mean, i know it mostly consists in festivals, which have their own promotional circuit, but here and there they're headlining some of the gigs - i'm thinking about Italy where 2 out of 3 dates are not festivals, and since here they use to play almost every summer if you don't have nothing new to give to the audience, it may become hard to sell tickets in a period where the general offer is so vast (as we saw with last summer tour).

They probably just wanted to play some concerts.

Nope, "Prog in" is just a random name to indicate a gig that is not a festival one (Rome and Barletta are headlining gigs but with opening acts)

genome · « **Reply #2256 on:** June 18, 2015, 12:04:07 PM »

Still confused as to why the Rome gig says the show starts at 9pm. DT wouldn't be on until extremely late. What's the curfew?

rumborak · « **Reply #2257 on:** June 18, 2015, 12:06:51 PM »

That whole Barletta gig is really hard to find, btw. The place doesn't even seem to have a website.

In Katowice DT started 10pm +

Because it's just an open space inside a Castle.

There's one unneeded / misleading word in your post: and it's "gig". All the rest is fine

So... provided the other two bands have 30 minutes each we're looking at a 10:30 DT start? Still seems late.

Not sure I understand. Granted, not being a native speaker of English I might have an erroneous concept of the word gig. I am loosely using the term to mean "musical performance".

I use it the same way. I sometimes find it very hard to convey some ideas because I'm never sure if I'm using the "right" word, or at least the "most common" way to say something. Where are you from?

rumborak · « **Reply #2264 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:07:33 PM »

Germany. But I've been living in Boston for 13 years, so I don't think I'm too off on my concept of "gig". That's at least how we used it in my band back in the day

Guys, I don't know if this is allowed (If it's not, please delete this... Or at least ignore), but some random guy got this on the video JR uploaded yesterday.

He was making a joke about the fact that Barletta is itself a very obscure place.

Octavarious · « **Reply #2267 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:22:26 PM »

Indeed. The word "gig" is absolutely correct, but not in that sentence...

wasteland · « **Reply #2268 on:** June 18, 2015, 04:24:14 PM »

I am aware of the existence of Barletta only because it's the homeplace to a notorious Serie A referee

Behind The Veil on 99

I don't see ANTR or LITS in there, unless someone can make out the titles above the bottom 4.
