2014-03-25 - Opera House - Boston, MA

[rumborak]

My best guess is that the first image is from another venue they used for practicing with the ensemble. Here's another image of the Opera House:

So yeah, 9th row might be still a good distance away, TAC.

[TAC]

That's not too bad. As long as my kids can see.

I see Eren in the thread. Eren, where in town did you guys rehearse?

[chrisgazpacho]

The two images don't seem to match up at all.

The first image is from House of Blues in Boston.

Venue looks nice.  I get more jelly every minute.

[Onno]

To everyone that's going: have fun! Should be great!

[EstyMaJ]

Not at all. Could the first one be a rehersal hall somewhere in town?

Pretty sure i read the orchestra area is semi under the stage

Just ran into Jordan strolling by our hotel by the opera house. ...could not have been nicer to my wife and me.  Very stoked for the show after hearing how excited he is.......

The first picture is my rehearsal with orchestra only at a Berklee facility. Second one is from yesterday, rehearsal with band at House of Blues. Tonight, opera house!!

We ran through our part yesterday so smooth it was awesome. Everybody was really happy. I have no doubt you will all love it tonight. The venue is gorgeous as well.

My setlist prediction:

Everything the same except

1-Adding Spirit Carries On After dance of eternity
2-Remove Lie from the setlist
3-Swap Along for the Ride with Space Dye Vest in the setlist order

[cramx3]

JP just posted a pic of a camera on facebook, a camera as in a film camera for recordng a DVD!

If they change the set at all, i hope they just add more from DT12.

Eren said there's no variation.

Also,

[TAC]

Place looks awesome!!

[JayOctavarium]

I thought Eren said there might be one addition to the setlist?


This was also a little bit ago though so IDK

I heard from a source they wanted to really make it a truly special dvd, so they will be playing The Spirit Carries On, and WIMH/TTTSTA. Because no Dream Theater dvd is complete without those three songs.

Haha are you serious? They played The Spirit Carries On to death (Dramatic Tour of Events, Black Clouds tour, Chaos in Motion tour and also the Octavarium tour) and also appeared on Live at Luna Park.

I wonder what they'll do with OTBOA and BIA since those songs also appeared on LALP.

omg... for a second I thought you were cereal

[Shadow2222]

  Sarcasm green would have been too easy

That's actually the best thing about this DVD (the fact that those three songs aren't on it  ).

Apparently OTBOA and BAI are the new consistent repeats.

[rumborak]

Feel free to hate us. A DT concert program

[rumborak]

Whoever designed the concert program can't spell Massachusetts

[King Postwhore]

 

Great venue

[PROGdrummer]

Is this the show that was going to be filmed for the DVD?

[Shadow2222]

I just know that some poor soul has stayed away from the setlist and YouTube videos and just had the entire setlist spoiled for him when they opened that booklet 

Also, at least people won't be clamoring for setlist updates, as we know that it is the same already.

[TAC]

They are absolutely crushing Trial Of Tears right now.
MM and JM are in the zone.

How's James doing? *crosses fingers*

[TAC]

He's been good. He was great at the end of TOT.
JP has his serious face tonight.

James has lost weight.

Jordan seems very happy tonight. Nice to see.

Did the orchestra play FAS?

[TAC]

I'm standing behind the mixing desk looking at the split screen for the video editing. This DVD will be gorgeous.
Finishing Lie now. Setlist is the same.

[goo-goo]

Will this be an official release or part of the Official Bootleg series?
Also Im assuming The orchestra only played FAS with DT correct?

[The Letter M]

Which song(s) does the ensembles perform with the band? Judging by JR's video clip I saw earlier today, at LEAST "Illumination Theory".
