Dream Theater 2007/2008 World Tour Dates!! (updated 2/23/08)

wow venezuela 14.03.2008  mike please play learning to live in caracas....
 
 
 

So will they be covering an album on the second night in Beunos aires?

yeah, Mike you always mention that it is harder to come up with new set lists... so i have some suggestions for Argentinian dates

In the presence of enemies
The ministry
Hells kitchen (you ever play this live?)
Lines in the sand (you didnt play this one last time)
Prophets of war (we love the chants in Sounth America)
This Dying Soul
A Change of Seasons (this one would be a killer for me)

LaBrie said "we'll be back very soon" haha .. but...

Well unfortunatly that they way things go..obivously there wasn't a promoter in Mexico willing to pay up the money for DT to play there...I mean JB said the same thing over 5 years ago when they played Ireland and they've never been back but we all know why that is...shitty venues and crap promoters not willing to take a gamble on a band...

The thing is, the promoters wouldn't even be taking a gamble at least on a Mexico City show. Last time they were here, they sold out a venue with 10,000 seats... This sucks.

Don't know what to tell yah then man...but there's lots of fan's who don't get to see DT...that's just an unfortunate part of life....all you can do is hope for next time like everyone does...

i'll never get to see pain of salvation... they are a must

PLEASE,
come to LIMA
a lot of DT crazy fans are waiting for YOU!

that's where i gave Mike a T-shirt... I cant think of a better place than Luna Park for the date... too bad i have to travel 12 hours on a bus! i'll be there no matter what.

Edit: woah, resized

South America´s shows will be "an evening with DT"?

big mistery... in fact i'd love if it was like that. i dont want to see crappy bands like in Symphony X... hmm maybe if Presto Vivace plays, it would be ok. but no other band...

I LOVE YOU MIKE!!!! 2 DATES IN ARGENTINA! I´LL SEE YOU AGAIN! ME SO HAPPY!

FUCK YEAH!! :D
 
Please Mike...KEEP BLIND FAITH AND SCARRED ON THE SETLIST HERE IN SAO PAULO!

Mike are you guys coming with the whole stage antics?? (ants, lampposts, siamese monster, mesaboogies up to the hilt!!!! etc..) or are you going to have to scale it down!!!!, hope not

I want my tickets now! 3 and 4 Dream Fucking Theater, 7th Iron Maiden. I can´t believe its happening in Argentina. I´ll have a heart attack (me and my wallet :P)

Yeah, I know. On the bright side, I did get to watch Porcupine Tree last year, which was a total dream come true. I really hope there's some kind of a chance to get DT before the North American tour

i'm praying for the mexican fans. you MUST get those dates!

Well, Chile won't let DT down on the first concert in south america. There has been some media coverage already. Can we surpass 25k???

 
We need at least one mexican date. PLEASE!!!!!!!! 
Lasts shows in Mexico where sold out, I don't know what happened.
 
Mike is there any chance you can give us some updates about what's up with MEXICO??? 

The shows won't be an Evening With unless Mike makes a new announcement about it. The only reason the current shows are Evening With is because they're a warm up for Australia, and we're getting it because they've never been here before.

Thanks, bam. I really hope you enjoy those Argentinian shows. Go to both of them!

Question:
Will Dream Theater be coming to Australia/Mexico/Argentina any time soon?

Answer:
MP:   Yes, Yes and Yes

 
I still have faith.

i will dude thanks...

I'd be desappointed, but Mike said DT was going to come to Mexico on this tour, so ill keep my faith with me, besides that, i hope DT to play in here during summer vacations, so i can go to see'em easily 

I read in the DTPeru Forum that someone sent an email to a promoter here in Lima-Peru for info about getting a chance to see DT live in my town and they told him that the Dream Theater's managers didn't have interest of coming here... I obviously think this is a lie, I hope it is. Maybe here the promoters are not willing to take a gamble on Dream Theater but that's too bad because DT have a looooot of fans here. I hope Mike reads this...just one day in PERU please
 

COOL
 
and i will have to travel 1800 km again to go to Rio de janeiro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your peruvian fans are very sad because you didn't include our country(Peru) in your southamerican tour, we hope that someday you will include us in any tour you make, seems like this time it was just a false ilusion. I hope Mike reads this!

LUNA PARK is our Budokan
No better place than that for the show

Hi Zyry! Do you know what's best of being in Luna Park stadium?

It's that's only 25 blocks from my job... I'll be there as soon as I get out of work

My god... had Sonata and Dream decided together to visit our country in the same month? I'm broken! I'll have $100 for each ticket to Sonata's show and I think about $150 for each Dream's show... multiplying this per two: my boyfriend and me.

I'll have to get another job...

YOU have to buy HIS tickets?

We live together... and it's very different when you live with your couple. You don't have control over whose money is expended.

Anyways... it's his birthday on 9th March, and I'm planning to buy him his ticket for Sonata. What a gift, hum?!

The real fan of Dream Theater in our relationship is me; but he wouldn't let me go by myself to the show, even though he knows that I went alone on 2005. He doesn't like the idea of me going to a metal band recital alone. I'm his 'little girl'. Yeah, I'm a girl... So what?!?!? I like metal and I love headbanging!!!

So. I wan't to go to both shows. And he'll probably come with me. And who will buy the tickets? Me ¬_¬.

So, Dream Theater is playing two nights in a row at Luna Park in Brazil. Usually when they do that they cover a classic-album..will this happen now? or something cool?

^^^^
It's in Argentina, actually!

Totally sweet. March 7, Sao Paulo.

Greatest '08 news ever.

(Will the South America leg be 'An Evening With...'?)
