My copy of IAW has BAI on it. It flows right into it from PMU.

The problem is, neither the first or most recent album has a song classic enough to be the last song played at a concert yet.

The Killing Hand (extended version) and Illumination Theory would be great as closers..

They've been using IT as closer and it's the most anti-climatic thing, just like Count of Tuscany. IMO.

Anyone that's gone to one of the shows.... Is there a 30th Anniversary Poster or T-shirt? What other kind of merch do they have set up for the festivals?

I can't really see how those songs are anti-climatic at all - they all have these glorious, epic endings.

No, it's not.

As for the longer songs for certain concerts,

This won't happen, although if love it as I'll be at the Bonn gig (best prog gig ever) but they have set click tracks and light shows for all gigs, they will not change this for a few venues.

Still, the show tomorrow is gonna be really awesome and I`m glad to be there too! In addition, I think that the setlist`s pretty good, since this will be my first DT show and two of my favourites will definitely be played (Metropolis + Panic Attack)

Cool, have fun at the show!
I like the setlist, too. It will be my third DT show (in 3 weeks) and they don't repeat any song from the last tour, so I have seen none of these songs live yet.
I'm curious to see how this chronological set will flow.

JLB is sick right now apparently. My brother went to see them in Bonn, was apparently a rather rough performance.

Damn, that sucks. I remember watching a recent show where he was pretty on point except he couldn't reach his highest notes (ie. Caught in a Web verse 2 and 3). Maybe that's why.

PixelDream · « **Reply #117 on:** July 10, 2015, 03:26:34 AM »

In a totally unexpected turn of events, I'm gonna see them coming Sunday at a festival called Bospop in Holland. Steven Wilson, Anathema, Black Label Society and Europe too. Pretty cool line up!

bosk1 · « **Reply #118 on:** July 10, 2015, 08:39:01 AM »

If I were going, I would hope Wilson was on first so I could just arrive late and avoid his set altogether. But cool lineup otherwise.

Party Mike · « **Reply #119 on:** July 10, 2015, 08:54:08 AM »

Ending the show with Behind the Veil is pretty weird. The whole setlist seems off, in my opinion. "A Fortune In Lies" would work a lot better than "Afterlife" as an opener.

People keep saying that, but I'm not sure what most mean. Some have clarified that they think it is odd because it is a newer and not well-known song. I think I agree with that. But many have implied that it just seems odd as a closer musically. I don't agree with that. I think it is actually a pretty good closer from that standpoint.

I have not even the faintest idea what you look like, but see you there I suppose.

Also, I wonder what songs they will scrap from the setlist, since they only have an hour to play.

Behind the Veil would make a killer opener, especially at a festival.

Not sure I understand. The guy is going on after DT and is the last performer. So wouldn't you just leave after DT's set and avoid the rush home?

Well, since the person who posted the lineup did not state the order, I have no idea who is first, last, or in between. But thanks for the unsolicited snarky comment anyway.

PT > DT

And

SW's four solo albums > DT's last four solo albums (done over just about the same time span)

Yeah, that's right.

It will be good if you can leave before Steven Wilson's set, because it's dangerous to drive while half asleep.

Guess what? I'm going there and I will enjoy the hell out of Dream Theater, Anathema and Steven Wilson (in that order) and then drive home through the night afterwards not even close to being half asleep because I had an awesome day and I'm full of excitement.

Take that

Count me in as a massive prog fan (generally) that isn't in the Steven Wilson fan club. I liked (not loved) his work with Fish, and his Crimson remasters are out of this world, but other than that... if he's first, I'll be in the parking lot, and if he's last, I'll be beating traffic.

(That's not precisely true; I'll see anyone live once, but I'm making a point).
