« on: July 13, 2022, 10:27:59 AM »


Quote
My first headlining solo tour is set to take place this Fall! I’ll be taking my incredible band with Dave LaRue on bass and Mike Portnoy on drums, on an extensive tour of N.America! If that weren’t exciting enough, very special guests, Meanstreak will be opening all the shows!
The NYC 🗽 show on October 13th goes on sale right now with presale code “TERMINAL”. Get tickets here: https://bnds.us/srbden
Check back often - more dates to be announced soon! 🎸

I'm trying to figure out how or where to put the code in, but I can't find a spot. BTW, these tix are fucking expensive.

Oh, rereading the announcement, seems it's just NYC with the pre sale.

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 reread the announcement and it seems only 10/13 show has a presale. I was looking at the Boston show.

Cool!  Hope there are some west coast dates that work.

Are they touring with their wives? Or is it a Y&T tribute band?

No prospects for a show down South, and I'll be traveled out in October, so this is probably not happening for me.

Their wives.

Hopefully they'll make a stop in Charlotte... I'd like to see JP and MP onstage again and Terminal Velocity was a very good album for me.

I grabbed some tix for JR's solo show in Charlotte at the end of this month and I'm looking forward to it!

As far as I know, there have only ever been two Y&T tribute bands, and they both expired within about a year after I gave up vocal duties in the "main" one.

It's excellent. When I saw him the crowd was so small we were essentially just huddled up on his keyboard watching him play. His opening rampage was fantastic, and he did a solo rendition of Keys to the Imagination which was superb.

For those in the LA area, what are some venues you could expect this show to play in?  I think this would do well in the El Rey like the Neal Morse Band tour this year, or maybe a larger room like the Belasco where Transatlantic played this year?

When MP teased some more things happening this year a while back, I thought they were trying to book a short LTE tour, but never thought it would be this instead!

Nice.  Adding the NYC show to my concert list, but I'm not ready to commit to purchasing.

Had a look and the tix are indeed expensive if you want front row balcony - I think these are more expensive than what I paid for orchestra DT tickets. I guess it's the standing room!

Wasn’t Yael the drummer? Marlene is a guitar player.

Slightly related to this,

in the past few days a couple of videos with JP, both from Young Guitar, emerged on YT:

here he talks about his Majesty line, with a prototipe of the 8 strings, and other gears he's using in the studio

I just bought my ticket for New York; I guess it's all perspective, but I didn't think that was that outrageous.  I could have had second row front for $200 plus fees, but I ended up not ten rows back for under half that.  Some seats were $40.  Did I misunderstand something (I'm being sincere, not sarcastic)?

I only thought the up front $199 were a bit expensive.  And that's before they raise the prices for "official platinum" sales.  I paid much less for my front row DT ticket this year.  The rest of the prices seem fairly standard.

Got my tickets for NYC show (first row balcony). Now hoping for a Keswick Theater show too where I'll be up front! This show should be a blast and I'm really looking forward to seeing the wives perform in Meanstreak too! :metal

I was just wondering, since it's JP's first solo headliner tour, I assume they'll be doing a 2 hour-ish set, so the question is, what is the set going to look like? Will they play both of JP's solo albums in full? Will they add a few of his unreleased tracks? Some random MP-era DT instrumentals?

That would actually be awesome.  But I'd guess a lot of his original music, maybe covers, and some jamming.  Maybe they will also do an encore with the wives? I'd guess something like 30-45 minutes of the wives to open and a 90 minute JP set.

I'm debating going to charlotte show as well, the venue he is playing is really intimate. I guess I'll scoop up a ticket.

In no partical order, I think any (or all) of these piecess could be in the setlist:

Terminal Velocity
Happy Song
Gemini
Out of the Blue
Temple of Circadia
Glassy-eyed Zombie
Glassgow Kiss
Animate-Inanimate
Damage Control
Jaws of Life
Lost without you
Tunnel Vision

Plus whatever else they decide to do. And yeah I think having a few songs with the wives would be fun as well. Maybe similar to G3 style of show, have everyone come out at the end for some covers.
