Anyone else going?
ドリームシアターはあまり好きではありませんが、ペンと紙を持っていたので、なんてこった。

Yes! Flying up from Melbourne, then flying back for the Melbourne Show.
Missed a ticket for the meet at Utopia Records, they went crazy fast! Looking forward to the show.... just over a week to go.  :)

Damn, that's dedication.

Definitely looking forward to it. My favourite band playing one of my all-time favourite albums & songs (ACOS). Couldn't be more excited for it. It's gonna be great. :corn

Just 9 days left  :)

First time flying interstate for a DT show, maybe a moment of madness ... too late once ticket, flights and accommodation are booked.  ::) I have done it for Steve Vai in the past.

Great photos, makes me wish I was there again.
I went to the Aussie Fan club meet up from just after 2pm, it had a small turn out but great to meet the guys.  :)
There were rumours that it would be standing room on the floor even though it was sold as seating, I was glad it was seated, but in hindsight, I wish it had been standing.
We all know the set list hasn't changed, so there were no surprises.
I was in 12th row and the first set after the sound being a little off for Dark Eternal Night and maybe the second track, it was amazing, it was very loud.
First time at Hordern and it is a very flat venue, so seated means if you have someone tall in front of you then too bad. So either side of me that are guys 6'2, the guy in front of me is 6'4,
I stand at 5'4, so when the second set came along, with Images and Words in all its glory, James encourages everyone to stand, I saw pieces of the show, mostly JP, so not all bad,
but never JR or JMX. It was a great show .. Merch was not cheap and they sold out of programmes within about an hour. That was disappointing.
I never thought I would hear Images and Words live, let alone change of seasons and my fave track of all time Hell's Kitchen, different intro but still Amazing!!!!!
2 years James said before the next round for OZ.......fingers crossed.
