From what I understand the bands are just listed in alphabetical order. It could be a different line up order.

Face it, Dev will probably never manage to headline a proper tour with his solo/DTB/DTP music.


However, I love BTBAM and Cynic so that tour should be good. And on the wrong side of the Atlantic.

Well duh. I was thinking direct support.

This is also why I'm visiting my friend in BC whenever there's a show up there :P

Wow...well i hope all that go support him. Eitherway, Ill be there to in dallas (thats of course if there is a date here).

Although make sure i get to a show eitherway.

I dunno if its true tho. I looked at their tour schedule and it looks like it wouldnt be.

I'm wagering the tour is pretty likely. BTBAM supposedly told fans they'd be doing a headlining jaunt in January. Dev and STS both stated they've got something in the works for the time frame.
As for probable order, I'd say Dev would be up second. Honestly, BTBAM are more commercially viable and Cynic are legends in the prog-metal world.

If the resulting set time is too short for your liking, make arrangements to hit multiple gigs. My typical radius for Strapping was about 300 miles. With a gas guzzling nightmare of a car and a significant other who
a) drove all but one person off
b) refused to stay anywhere that wasn't at least three stars
the average roadtrip went me about $50.00 for gas, food, and lodging combined.
You've got time before the tour happens. Chat up people wearing Dev merchandise. Set up a social meeting with that guy on these forums who's always at the same area gigs as you. Hell, flashmob your local gamestop with a half dozen semi-local board-mates and reenact your favorite Bomberman levels.

If this is all true, as long as Devin gets 30-45 minutes, I'll be a happy guy.

The only chance I ever had of seeing the DTB was back a couple years ago when the opened for Opeth and Dark Tranquility. But apparently the were off the tour 4 days before the stop in MN. :(
