Symphony X and Dream Theater!

[Neva Kee]

Finally! :Smokin:

Symphony X and Dream Theater together on tour!

I only hope they come just a little closer to Germany

If now Symphony would not "only" be supporting, that'd be perfect - but I guess this is as close as it gets!

Just marvellous

I think John Petrucci is an overall more talented guitarist, but michael romeo's phrasing and emotion is better...

 

[progmetaldan]

+1,000,000,000

Though I'd have to argue that JP can be much more emotional, eg. solo from 'The Spirit Carries On'...

 

[Time-Machinist]

We are all Dream Theater maniacs and Symphony X bashers. We are just here to bash Symphony X.

 

[MartyF]

Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed because Symphony X is "only" the support-act, but other than that I'm looking forward to see Symphony X.

Off-topic: Where are you from Neva Kee? Near to Muenster(NRW)?

 

[Wander]

Yeah!!! They are coming to Helsinki, Finland. I can't miss this chance to see both symphony X and Dream Theater in the same gig. I agree it's a shame Symphony X is the support-act, but DT is almost as great. It will be awesome to see them play.

Any ideas how many minutes Symphony X will get?

[Phanto]

They'll play in Stockholm also. 's gonna be sweeet. I wonder what the third act will be.

I'll be at both. Already have the SX tickets.

 

[Luis]

I think im the only one who dont agree with this.

SymphonyX is a high caliber band, they dont deserve to work as a support guys.

Me too. Will be doing the dinner/reserved seat thing at Slims and I actually like two separate headlining shows vs. them playing together.

I throughfully agree. But I don't really want to whine, cause it's damn great to see Symphony X and DT in the same gig live. I wished it was Symphony X as the main act, but I'm happy to see DT too.

 

[proulxski]

STFU, symphony x is touring with DT they might play together on songs who knows, so fuck high calibur band and let them enjoy themselves, its going to be an awesome show, and if all turns out who knows they might do a bigger tour with them so STFU!

I agree with you, Luis. However, it's all based on how much money the bands bring in. Dream Theater has sold far more albums than Symphony X, and as such, are the headliners. It's just like Gigantour 2005... we all knew Symphony X should have been on the main stage, but the other bands had done better with record sales. It's that simple, and it's unfortunate.

By the way, at DoomsdayZach!

If by higher calibur you mean better players, i disagree. Better writers for their individual instruments, I agree 100%.

I don't think Luis was making an anti-Dream Theater statement; he probably just meant that Symphony X shouldn't open for any band.

Let's try to not make this into a versus thread. Hell, if I lived in Europe, I'd be out drinking already, celebrating this awesome news. It's not often that two great bands get to tour together.

 

[Horus]

I also think that Dream Theater should never have an opener, so it all really kinda works out...

Except that a band that should never be an opener is STILL opening for a band who should never have an opener.
