LOTS MORE DATES COMING SOON!!!
(US dates in July/Aug - Europe in Sept/Oct/Nov - Asia, South America and Australia(?) to follow....)

Damn, that's a lot of festivals!
 

Very cool, now I just have to patiently wait for DT to come back to California!  BTW, it's great to see DT playing with great bands like Heaven and Hell, Motorhead, Slayer, Iced Earth, Black Label Society, and of course the numerous bands present and Download.

No soup for you!

excellent..now show us the US dates.

I still hope for some German dates. I have no time for the Fields of Rock festival

By a chance of 70% I´ll get my ass off to Fields Of Rock.

Edit: At least an ass kicking tour name after all those years !

Looks like the Euro's are fixin' to get their asses kicked!

Great!!! I hope you guys don't forget do a South American Leg again  Please, come back to Colombia!!!

cant wait to hear a Mexican date  AWESOME!!!

Van Petrucci

Are there any more UK (especially Scotland) dates on this leg in the pipeline, MP? Just for booking travel, accomodation etc.

Cool!!!
 
I know I live in the states, but once the European dates start I know that NA shows are around the corner. 
 
Goes in line for tickets now...........
 
Hey Mike,
 
Congrats on the Donnington show, you sound really pumped about that.  Hope it goes well.

Oh my God, really good news, I'm so excited at the idea of seeing them again! Just hoping for a headlining show here in Rome!

Here's hoping for an Ireland date... or a UK date nearer the end of June.

 

Off to a Chaotic start.
 
 
I was really hoping I'd get to see the boys in the late summer at DTE in Detroit but it looks more and more like that
won't happen.
 
 
Congrats on all the great gigs....we expect lots of great pics!!

No Portugal :(
 

The last date on there is the first of July. That gives them almost a week to come in and do a show in KC... 

The problem is, or rather one of the problems, for there are many, a sizable number of which are continually clogging up the civil, commercial, and criminal courts in all areas of the Galaxy, and especially, where possible, the more corrupt ones, this.

(US dates in July/Aug - Europe in Sept/Oct - Asia, South America and Australia(?) to follow....)
friggin cool!

Carpe Diem !

I wonder if DT will finally make it to one of the big German festivals like Rock im Park and Rock am Ring...

Yes I'd very much like to know the answer to that question, for the same reasons

Chaos in Motion, huh? Did anyone guess that as a tour title? That's pretty !

OH-MY-GOD

See you there Mike!
Oh man, FINALLY. Last tour I only could see DT on 'Lorca Rock Festival' with a short set, and after that you didn't come to Spain for a whole 'An Evening With' set. But now I'm going to see them TWICE. Fucking YESSS!

I have a couple of questions...
First...Is there any changes on DT production for this tour? bigger screens, spinning drums, confetti, any besides the new drum kit?
Second...Is DT gonna bring the whole production mode to South America and such places that wasn't included in the last tour?

Carpe Diem !

I really hope they'll be doing a second American Leg. I won't be able to go to many concerts this summer, and I already spent an arm and a leg on Roger Waters in July, and it'll be hard to get more days off. Please, Mike, more US dates in the Fall! :)

Oh man... I nearly had a heart attack... then I saw the question mark. Reminds me of this picture:





In all seriousness, looks like it may be a pretty long tour for you guys... I hope you all don't completely burn out - you work too hard for us  

yeah! I guess we can expect Mexican dates on early or mid-2008... cool!
It'd be amazing to have a 2-night stand so we can see a classic album covered in Mexico City...
waiting patiently...

that'd would be awesome!!!! but with the only precense of DT in Mexico is fair enough to me

Van Petrucci

Does that mean the US dates in July/Aug will be the headlining shows? i.e. no US summer package tour.
 
Aussies, don't get too excited yet. MP posted pretty much the same thing 2 years ago. (Possible Australian dates).
It's up to local promoters and the band to work out a deal.
Altough I have a feeling it'll happen this time due to the recent G3 tour.

^ And the new label...

Got third row tickets for the Newcastle headlining show today
 
FUCK.
 
YES.

South America!!!  UHU!!!

SOUTH AMERICA!!!!!
 
YEAH...I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN!!!!!
 
 

DT and Iced Earth..........sick!

I love the tour title!
 
MIke, let me tell you something man...You are the fucking man!
 
I cannot wait for Chicago (hoping for a St. Louis date) date!
 
Thanks for taking the top spot on my list of all time favorite bands!

Man, some of these European festivals are unreal.  I'd love to be able to make it overseas for one of these shows one of these days.  Not quite enough $ on hand at the moment though.

Mike, can you reveal if this means that the first european leg has been announced in its entirety or if there's more shows to follow here as well?

Glad I got front row at Newcastle, and then the proper leg later in the year
 
Much easier to get an evening pass when it is arranged like that

If ever there is a tour that needs to be properly documented on the road for a dvd release then this would be it! I have great expectations for the new cd & hope the new record label promotes the hell out of it & the tour. No reason that DT can't be as big as any other mainstream bands out there... Also, after the G3 tour groundwork, Australia is 100% on the cards this time...

cool! sounds great Mike

say....would it ever be possible to get like a back stage pass to see DT at download? I would love to get picture taken with and maybe a signing of a snare skin by MP himself

Like most people on the board, I would like to see the Oz tour go ahead

I´m really hopeing on a swedish date Last time was amazing and I got to meet "the man"

Damn. If I were on the other side of the Atlantic, some of those festivals would be an absolute wet dream to attend!
 
But as far as the US leg goes, here's hoping for Anchorage! (yeah...THAT'LL happen...)

OMG i love this part of the DT touring/recording cycle... like, when your full of anticipation because of the new album, and the new tour dates, and MP's new DVD, and on, and on......

download f***king rocks... its going to be awesome

some advice guys, assuming that DT go to south america and asia and then australia, what kind of dates would they be looking at?

i'm going to be in europe from 31st of october until 11th of january, and i'm panicking about the possibility of missing DT (it would be the ultimate insult to just miss them when i go to europe, and then be away when they come to australia)

judging by the octavarium tour, they were in asia from early until late january, soooo surely they'd come to australia at the end of the asia tour... which would be late january/early february.... riiight??

gotta pay for my trip soon too, will die if i miss an aussie tour >.<

Yeah, it's not too far to go, I'm going to be in Loughborough at the time, so I'll be making pretty much the same trip, although accommodation's not really a problem for me given that I'm from Newcastle. If my car wasn't already full, I'd offer to give lifts to people looking for a way up there.

http://www.sonixonline.co.uk/

I love the title of the world tour...it sounds so........

There is no other band like Dream Theater. They are the quintessential musicians of our time, and the best band I've ever heard. The music industry wouldn't be the same without them.

Me and my mate are going Newcastle  Row M, which apparently is at the front of the 2nd section back, so the seats shouldn't be too bad.
 
Now we've just got to find a way to get up there because i'm not sitting on a trin for 4 hours. Would be better if the gig was standing tickets, but it's immense either way. YESSSS.

more europe dates in sept/oct? sweeeet. hopefully this means more UK shows. i should hopefully be going to download but itl be nice for dt to play somewhere local like London or Brighton. heheheh. newcastle is too far!!

My ticket is in the post. See you guys there.

South America! YES

 Just got my tickets for the Newcastle ,England gig!!!!!!!!!  Great to see em doing my home town!!!!........off on holiday to Greece on July 1st so theres another possibility.

ah man no Roskilde damn it maybe late then, i sure was hoping for that seeing Muse, Rchp and DT at the same event would have kicked arse.
