For the 2014 "Along For The Ride" tour, DREAM THEATER guitarist John Petrucci scaled his Mesa Boogie touring rig down to a Triaxis Preamp, a 2:90 Power Amp and two Rectifier 1x12 cabs and two 1x12 Mini Rectifier cabs. When Petrucci visited the Mesa factory last year he brought his live rig to the Mesa Video Lounge to walk through the signal chain and to play through the rig. Check out the footage below.DREAM THEATER vocalist James LaBrie stated last month about he band's plans for the rest of 2015: "DREAM THEATER will go back into the studio in New York in February and start writing and recording. Usually, that's about a five-month period of doing that. Monday to Friday; we take our weekends off. And then, hopefully, there will be a late fall release. And we don't wanna start touring until 2016 to support that. So we'll engage and start on another world tour probably right around this time next year."DREAM THEATER's latest, self-titled sold around 34,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 7 on The Billboard 200 chart. The CD, which arrived in stores on September 24, 2013 via Roadrunner, earned DREAM THEATER its second Grammy nomination, for "Best Metal Performance" for the single "The Enemy Inside".
