Pain of Salvation coming to North America this summer!

They better play a better set than the one I saw in Amsterdam.

 

[Kvlt Wench]

No fucking way!! Oh shit that's awesome.

 

[Phoenix5]

holy shit

well i guess they still hate america

so i won't hope for american dates

 

[Kvlt Wench]

Nope. From their page:

On Jan 20, 2009, after almost five years, Pain of Salvation announce that they are lifting their embargo on USA.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

lol, embargo?

 

[Kvlt Wench]

Daniel Gildenlow didn't want to come to the US because he opposed the policy of fingerprinting all foreigners. I guess he got over it.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

LOL

On one hand... there's Zappa plays Zappa... On the other hand, there's Dream Thezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzater. Fucking tickets are gonna be around 100 bucks I'm guessing considering the 2 top tier bands.

I'm also guessing, considering the average length of a DT set, Pain of Salvation might be able to get half a song in? Beardfish will get their introduction.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

wtf

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Wow, wtf is Dream Theater doing over Zappa Plays Zappa. Thats just fucking DISGUSTING.

I hope they play "He's So Gay" and dedicate it to LaBrie.

 

[Captain Beard]

Dream Theater eh? Only if I need (another) nap.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

I hope they play "He's So Gay" and dedicate it to LaBrie.

I'm honestly kind of pissed off.

 

[EricT]

It is pretty bullshit.

Hopefully Steve Vai is with ZPZ for this tour, so he can show Petrucci what the fuck is UP. And then Bozzio will be all like "Hey portnoy, wanna see a real fucking drummer at work?" and proceed to slay.

Or maybe DT are big zappa fans and they'll all work together and do some sort of ZPZ - ZPZ/DT - DT thing. I could see myself liking that.

 

[Reminiscence]

Daniel didn't "get over it". He said the election of Obama showed a better mindset in American society than the past 8 years.

pos is amazing! go and see them you won't be disapointed. i've heard a song from the new album... i think it will be a masterpiece again

 

[~Lynn~]

Oh that's a good one! ^ I'd go to see ZPZ tho.

 

[Will Bozarth]

PoS and Zappa Plays Zappa? Good stuff. If it hits Philly, I'll go. I'll leave before DT

 

[Lunar Still]

Yeah, I would say I might consider it, but they probably won't play anywhere near me.
