Considering a trip to Toronto around the time of the tour...obsession?

Not really.....If I had the readies then I would.

Congrats Ryan, awesome news! God I wish I could see these shows...

I think Dark Tranquility might be a bit out of place between DTB and Opeth.

Is DTB definitely on first?

Oh I don't know. It's just the way to say it in Dutch and translated that literally.

Dev is going to blow the other bands away by the incredible wall of sound! And we all know it right?
All he has to do is go - Oi that stupid piece of shit aAAAAAAh!



Dragonforce - Extreme power metal rules!

More dates, NOW!!

I really hope they add a Philly date, that will be great!

I am making sacrifices to the concert gods in hopes that they'll add a Denver date...

Alright, it's finally announced.....thank god !

We are opening up for Opeth for part of the tour not all of it, cuz Dev has to record the new SYL.

Damn, no Denver...I would kill to see DTB this year.

Being from Northern CO I second your "Damn, no Denver sentiment!

But from what I understand, Dev didn't have a very positive experience in Colorado Springs a few years ago...

SYL didn't get the best response last time they were here either (w/Fear Factory). Everyone just stood there in a catatonic like state!?!?!
Anyway what happened in the Springs? I didn't hear about that - do tell!!!


Oh and to all the angry Europeans - not all of us blasted Americans are privey to the tour...looks like a select, and I mean VERY select few of us will have the honor of experiencing this one

Well, about the Springs, I heard that a lot of people were just unresponsive to his show, and that there was some boo-ing or something of that sort. Don't know too much about the details though. Twits!

SYL came here earlier, in September, on the SOTU tour...I don't know how well they were receieved (I had to come from out of town, and didn't get there until after they played).

To all who are wondering about Colorado Springs and what happened, well I do remember playing there but dont really remember anything really bad happening. I think it was more just the fact that pretty much for the most part of that tour the fans were there to see Symphony X and they just couldnt have cared less about DTB. Not to say we didnt have good shows as well but I think that was just one of the more non DTB audiences. Also to add I do believe we had a massive hole in the roof of our RV at that point(Dave thought it best to destroy the air conditioner) and it was starting to snow so I am sure that might have added to the bad experience. You will see the aftermath of the air conditioner on the dvd if you get it! Pretty funny shit!

Thanks Beavis!!! Good to know my neck of the woods wasn't unkind or disrespectful! I was worried about that.

Hopefully you guys will come back around soon cuz I have yet to catch a show - though not for lack of effort!

Agreed! I would really love to see DTB in Denver...

Hey Beav... do you realize that your band contains Dave, Dev, Ryan, Brian?
