Kind of funny if they get upstaged by Cynic, but Dragonforce fans tend to be single minded creatures.

I don't really think the bands have many fans in common, so I don't see any economical logic behind this tour... but well, I'd love to go

but they cant play it live...see Graspop 2006...

anyway - DragonForce is headlining (or "almost headlining") almost every big metal/rock festival held this summer...so we can say "Now DragonForce is the popular one!" (for thee who know Futurama)

I would think that would be a bit insulting to Cynic, but I guess not since they accepted it...

Not really... It is a North American tour. Dragonforce is more popular.

By the way, FUCK DRAGONFORCE.

Cynic are opening for DragonForce simply because Cynic were personally invited as main support by DragonForce. This is a fact, deal with it.

This does seem a bit weird but then again im a sheltered young one. I dont think i have ever heard Cynic to be honest, and Drangonforce may be put as the headline for their "unmatched" guitar skills which seems to be the only reason way they were on Guitar Hero III. But then again, what the hell do i know lol
