Dream Theater is a band that I can't get into at all. They have very talented musicians, but they have yet to release an album since 1992 to have any effect on me. Also, I'm just not a fan of James LaBrie's voice, and would gladly stick with the Charlie Dominici era. Even Majesty was pretty good.

When it comes to progressive metal, I prefer the USPM variety, so it's those first four Fates Warning albums for me.

It's even harder to be a fan of John Arch's voice to be honest.

Ololol

Wait a minute, why haven't I heard anything about the Dream Theater tour on MS? I found out through the band's website. At lease in the US I think their at the tail end of the European tour for the Astonishing.

A great band but don't like vocals. I have seen them live and they are masters of their domain.

So it might be out late 2024 or even 2025 hmmmm well well

According to Ilta-Sanomat, DREAM THEATER's concert in Oulu, Finland on Friday (February 3) was canceled a short time before the show was supposed to start.

Ticketmaster, which was responsible for the event's ticket sales, announced the cancelation via a message sent to those who purchased the ticket just over half an hour before the first support band was supposed to take the stage at Oulun Energia Areena.

In the message, Ticketmaster said the show was called off for "security reasons".

Toni Peiju, CEO of the event production company All Things Live Finland Oy, which was responsible for organizing the concert, told Ilta-Sanomat that "the subcontractor company had made a stage that was not safe to perform on. The lighting and sound equipment are heavy, and the stage structures would not have been sufficient to support their weight. The lights would not have been allowed to hang. It was purely a security matter."

Mike Portnoy rejoined Dream Theater

I loved their early stuff but now can't listen to them. They need Kevin Moore back IMHO.
