TRANSATLANTIC - WHIRLD TOUR 2010!!!

DT/Rush fan


I'll definitely be seeing them at The Palace of Fine Arts. Never even knew they had a venue there, should be awesome.

Yeah it's a great place,I saw Bryan Adams play an acoustic set there a year ago.You turn in right before you go toward the Golden Gate Bridge and end up right in front of it from what I remember. See you and Eric there.
 
I also was planning a flight to LA, but now a 90 minute drive...this is awesome!!!
 

I'm either going to Switzerland or London. Too bad the Switzerland and Stuttgart gigs are one week apart... distancewise they would be pretty close!
 
Q for the Londoners: Does anyone know anything about the Shepherd' s Bush empire? Is it easily reached by public transport? Standing/seated venue? Is it the kind of venue where bands will usually show up after the show? Thanks..

013 in Tilburg! Definitely going to be there!

Just waiting for tickets to go on sale...

I just booked a room in Philly - I've never seen TA before but I know it will go down as one of the best concerts I've ever attended!  I am SO excited!

I am not from London, but have been in the Shepherd's Bush Empire for concerts. It's very easily reached by public transport. A 3 minute walk. The theater itself is a beautiful place, a great place for concerts, see http://www.o2shepherdsbushempire.co.uk/Info. Standing on the floor and seats on the balconies (two levels). I am not sure if you have to book these seats or if it's general admission so you can go there and sit.

OMFG! I'm so happy right now! I will be at the Montreal gig's for s ure! I thought you were going to do the show in Europe or far away. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

PSA: Tickets for Philly go on sale 12/19 on livenation's website

I'm so there, w00t !!!

Tilburg is like a 90 minute drive for me

Man I can't wait!!

Does anyone know anything about the Montreal venue (like, seating capacity and potential ticket price and stuff)? I'm thinking I want to go to that show, but I want to know how long I have to decide before the tickets sell out. I need to know my final exam schedule first.

Tickets for NY go on sale Saturday too, why do they have to do it right before Christmas? We're all broke, but I will have to use the old credit card as I HAVE to go to this show.

Hope this helps you out. Looks like a cool venue, holds about 2000 people, all General Admission. DT has played a few shows there in the past as well as Porcupine Tree in 2007.
 
I'm still checking on any word when the tickets go on sale. Nothing yet.

I have no idea what to expect in terms of ticket prices, but I'd guess somewhere between 40 and 50 bucks?   It's really nice venue, DT played there on their "evening with" tours for TOT and 8V.  Fits about 2000 people I think and the floor has a nice big standing section.

edit: oops, icedog was quicker than me, damn you!! ;)

If tickets are less than $100, I'll probably just buy one and if I can't make it to the concert, it's no big loss. Meh.

So how popular is TA? How long would it take for them to sell out 2000 tickets? I'm terrible at judging this sort of thing.

sorry about that XeRocks81. Just hope I will be able to get a ticket. I'm thinking this will sell out quickly.
 
I believe the tickets are selling through TicketPro.com

You know, that's a really hard one to judge popularity wise.  When Marillion play mtl they draw about 2000 people and change, but Flower Kings never sell out venues there as far as I know. The BEard or Neal Morse have never played mtl so who knows.   DT is another story but this is a very different kind of gig. but just the name Portnoy on the bill means a certain number of people who wouldn'T be there otherwise.   Anyway long story short I don't expect this to sell out in one day but we shouldn't wait too long.

Looks like I'll be taking the train to NYC and Philly for those 2 shows.

YEEEEEESS!! I'll definitely be at the show in Pratteln, Switzerland. I still can't believe their coming to play so close to my home! Simply amazing... Thanks guys!!

Anyone else a little hurt that there are only 6 US dates?  Americans like good music too......sometimes...wheres the love for the homeland?

It's not a case of "where's the love for the homeland" it's more a case of "where's the homeland's love for Transatlantic". It just wouldn't make sense for Transatlantic to do more shows in the US, the base for prog music is in Europe.

Our burden as Americans is that we like better music than most of our fellow citizens, and we have to go to the music when the music can't come to us.

If anyone's is looking for a relatively inexpensive place to stay in NYC a block or 2 away from the Gramercy Theater, this place may suit your purpose.  Check out the photos inside - pretty interesting.

Yeah, there's not enough americans that like this sort of music to support a more extensive tour for a band like Transatlantic.

And, also, half the band is from Europe. So I'm not sure "homeland" is the appropriate term in this situation. They truly are Transatlantic.

I am hoping I can make a trip down to NYC for this. This has to be done!!

For the HOLLAND fans!!!

Ticketsale starts tomorrow 19 december.

Sometimes it really sucks to live in the middle of the USA.

I am so excited that they are coming to Chicago! Hope I'll get to see them!

San Fran to the motherfucking cisco?!?!?

Hell yeah.

San Francisco, here I come......

ROAD TRIP!!!!

Tilburg, Holland.. that's awesome!!
Maybe some German shows too!

Got my Tix fer the Park West just now,......cant wait!

Going to both Montreal and NYC shows.
 
Vacation + w/ Transatlantic = WIN!!    
There's no way in hell I'm gonna miss out on this Tour!

So no DT or Transatlantic to Mexico next year? Saaaaad.

Indeed, this makes me a sad panda too :-(

C'MON GUUUUYYYS !!!, MIIIIIIKE !!!, we are waiting for TA & DT in MEXICOOOOO !!!, PLEASE COME NEXT YEEEEEEAR !!!

I've got two tickets in the first row in Montreal. I didn't expect such great seats. Can't wait for the show!

See you in Montreal! Row B, seats 1,3,5,7.

Just got my tickets for the LA show! Very pumped

was hoping for budapest or prague so i guess: Poland! here we come

I just saw this morning the ticket sale for the montreal concert :(!!!!!!!!
I have my ticket in row P =( I would like to have better ticket, but it’s ok...

Got my tickets!!! (may 20th, 013 Tilburg, Holland)

Well, I hope I can finally meet Mike and shake his hand after all these years.

Steve

I am probably going to be seeing them in Montreal as seeing them at the Metropolis seems appropriate.

Doesn't matter where my seats are there, I'll be happy to be in the building.

My cousin's wedding is on the day of the Downey show (good thing I checked before buying tickets).  I am debating whether to go to San Fran the next day.
