Dream Theater news coming soon per all members on their Facebook page.

Guessing concert video from last tour.

There's videos with James and JM now too. Waiting for the one with JP in a few minutes :biggrin:

Fritzinger

What do you guys think it is? I think it will be a new Dream Theater live album.

Kotowboy

Well seeing as MM said it relates to both Distance Over Time and Scenes from a Memory - it could only be the live Blu Ray...

JP's is up, he hints that it has something to do with D/T so it seems likely to be the live album  :metal :metal

Either that or  they will do a live stream of the entire show.

Not. Interested. Why do a shitty glitchy stream when a Blu Ray is perfect quality.

I doubt they stream it.  It's a product they are going to sell, unless they will put it up digitally for sale too. And they can take my money.  Will be a day 1 blu-ray purchase for me.

They all say it's about DoT so it is certainly new live DVD.

Kotowboy

Guesses for the title ?

Will it be something related to Distance / Time / Memory ?

Distance Over A Memory ?

Or will it just be something bland like

" Distance Over Time Live in London 2019 "

Probably one I will not buy, but I guess we'll see. Yes we shall see. ((3)+4+1. Fermata.)

Meh...

I wasn't a big fan of the set list for the first set, and LSFNY exists, so they'll need to include some good bonus content to get my $$.
Feelin' kinda spooky.

more importantly (for me, being the extremely perfectionist musician I am), BT4W exists. The encore is my benchmark concerning Met2 pieces. I'm debating about buying it. (finally, ANTR has clean blastbeats and no death growls and PBD is nice too, but does that warrant me buying it? Not sure. You'll get my idea.)

I bought Live at Luna Park from iTunes and almost never watch it.

I have Breaking the 4th Wall on DVD and watch it occasionally.

I'll probably get this though.

Just watched Luna Park this past Saturday for the first time in a few years and man......I forgot how freaking good they sound on that! And, it's a really good set list. I didn't remember it being that good but I was SO happy me and the kiddos threw it in and watched it. They all were on point and sounded great. JR's mix was a tad low but I got past that given how good the overall sound and vibe was.

I'd say all of this + Mike going crazy on the FF outro + D/T songs + a killer version of ITPOE Pt. 1.
The SFAM full performance might be a bit redundant, since we already have a full album live album for that + the BTFW encore, but I'm sure it'll be great anyway.

yes, it's a right old banger this one. I love it to bits. Great setlist. The band at their best (finally!), great stage design too IMHO. One I always love watching.

LALP just *looks* like a school disco. It's shot like The X Factor or something and the crowd looks far away and empty.

since you mentioned it just now: One shot that always sticks out to me in that concert film is an overhead shot of the audience (I guess you call it that) with a blonde woman wearing a sequined jacket or something (and an evening dress as well IIRC. So weird (among all these fans in DT shirts) but so quirky in a way :D )

" BRING BACK PORTNOY "

" YES !! PORTNOY IS BACK !!!! "

" PORTNOY PORTNOY PORTNOY PORTNOY "

Jesus Christ. Not only did Petrucci have to release a STATEMENT saying he wasn't coming back - but GET A LIFE. Also how must it feel for Mangini ?

:\ :\ :\

Not bad, maybe switch it up, Memories Over Time? Either way, that would be more interesting than the basic.

Depending on pricing, I'd probably say set 1 might be worth the price alone with SFAM being the bonus content in my mind.  I totally understand people not wanting or needing another recording of those songs, but set 1 has so much goodness in it that is not yet on film.  Of course I'd love some more legit bonus content like recordings from the summer festivals where they played some different songs.

Scenes from a Recent Distant Time..

As far a purchasing the record...I will buy it. I will buy whatever expensive option they have.  Now don't be mad, but personally I think we all should purchase.
These guys cannot work, income is limited. I want to support them. Just like I am giving huge tips when I go out for food.  :heart

Good grief. I really hope those are all 12-year-olds whose brains are still developing. Anyone older than 17 who thinks Portnoy is coming back either has crazy insider knowledge that none of us could ever dream of, or is a blind stan. :lol

Also, I would buy a new live release in a heartbeat.

But 12 year olds wouldn't of ever actually experienced MP in DT other than on albums.  I think we all know these are older grumpy people, which seems to be most of DT's fan base these days.

Some fans: "Portnoy is definitely coming back"

JP already mentioned in his Terminal Velocity interview that new Live DT material is coming out soon.  That didn't really leave much room for speculation.  When I saw the FB posts from JP and JR, I wasn't surprised.

the first song of their first show will be The X Aspect (since they are all ex members) and this will be the intro tape: https://twitter.com/johncleese/status/1304458644864466945 (sorry about the predictable joke. I can do better than that.)

At least JLB was straight up about it "You guys probably already know what I'm talking about."

I'm hoping for Pre-order links along with a video. Untethered Angel, unless it'll be Paralyzed or Fall Into The Light. But then, Barstool Warrior would be a great song to showcase the live blu-ray and promote the D/T album.
