I might go, I might not. Cheapest ticket near me is $84 and that’s for literally the last row in balcony.
Waiting to see if other bands announce tours, as DT have become pretty low on my priority list.

I'm here at their first summer gig, showtime in 20 minutes. Hoping to hear some nice deep cuts since it's my 5th DT concert already.

Oh for sure, I'm going with a few friends. It's my 5th Maiden show too, the same as with DT.

It's very cool to see them trying new Mangini songs with Portnoy! Also, I'm a big supporter of more Falling Into Infinity material.

I saw DT on Friday at the Tallinn Rock Festival and it was pure awesomeness. The heaviest setlist I’ve seen them do, although shorter because of the festival format. And to think I almost didn’t go, because I had a lot of other things on my mind and was very tired. I’m glad my friend convinced me to go, that’s what good friends are for. Powerwolf were on after DT, and despite being less my cup of tea, they put on a good show and I participated in my first ever mosh pit. My friend got a black eye.

Seems like this was probably a super magical night for Portnoy. Good for him (them).DT covering Echoes by Pink Floyd...in Pompeii!

It has been a really exciting time to be a DT fan. 15-20 years ago I think you could have made the case that Portnoy was making a lot of self serving setlist decisions while sometimes missing the pulse on what the fans really want, so it was refreshing when Petrucci took over for awhile and instead of rotating constantly started to craft really solid setlists that check off a lot of boxes for fan requests (Space Dye Vest in 2014, A Change of Seasons in 2017, regularly pulling deep cuts that hadn't been played since Mangini joined, etc). But they were definitely starting to run out of steam and the setlist choices were starting to feel a bit uninspired, especially on the DreamSonic tour, so the time was right to go all out on fan service and start rotating setlists again and pulling out random surprises like The Best of Times at Radio City and Echoes in Pompeii. Mike Portnoy is clearly living out his DT fantasies, but in this instance I think it lines up with what a lot of fans want. It's actually exciting to follow what the band is up to and I am really looking forward to all the official bootlegs that are likely in the pipeline.
