As previously reported, DREAM THEATER is planning to enter the studio in late 2023 to begin recording its sixteenth studio album.

The progressive metal giants' timetable for the follow-up to 2021's "A View From The Top Of The World" was revealed by Petrucci in an October 2022 interview with SiriusXM 's "Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk" .

Asked about DREAM THEATER 's plans for 2023 after he is done touring in support of his second solo album, "Terminal Velocity" , John said: " DREAM THEATER is gonna continue touring in 2023. Just like everybody else, we were shut down for two years and have a lot of catching up to do. We're supporting 'A View From The Top Of The World' . We've done extensive tours of U.S. and Europe, but even… We played two shows only in Asia; we played, like, four shows in South America. There's a lot more ground to cover. So 2023 is gonna be filled with DREAM THEATER touring; I'm certain of that."

Asked if he and his bandmates have thought about working on new music yet, Petrucci said: "We're still working the last record. I can't see us being back in the studio until roughly this time next year. If you kind of just look forward to next year, you see the way it's gonna lay out, and we've got festivals. Before you know it, it's August. There's not gonna be any studio work done before the fall; I highly doubt it. So a new record wouldn't be [released before] the following year."

"The Alien" , a track from "A View From The Top Of The World" , landed DREAM THEATER its first-ever Grammy in the "Best Metal Performance" category at the 64th annual Grammy Awards , which was held in April in Las Vegas. DREAM THEATER 's previous Grammy nominations were for the song "On The Backs Of Angels" , from 2011's "A Dramatic Turn Of Events" album, and the single "The Enemy Inside" from 2013's "Dream Theater" .

"A View From The Top Of The World" was described in a press released as " DREAM THEATER at its musical finest, expanding on the sound they helped create while maintaining the elements that have garnered them devoted fans around the globe." The seven-song album also marked the second studio album with InsideOut Music / Sony Music . The artwork was created by longtime cover collaborator Hugh Syme ( RUSH , IRON MAIDEN , STONE SOUR ). "A View From The Top Of The World" was produced by Petrucci , engineered and additional production by James "Jimmy T" Meslin and mixed/mastered by Andy Sneap .

Progressive Metal/Rock is what they specialize in and has seen this band grow through success. Dream theater was formed in 1985, Boston Massachusetts, United States of America.

As of 2014 the band consists of members: John Myung - Bassist, John Petrucci - guitarist and backing vocals, James LaBrie - lead singer, Jordan Rudess - keyboardist and composer and the final member Mike Mangini - drummer.

Dream Theater was founded in 1985 while students at Berklee College of Music; three friends Mike Portnoy, John Petrucci and John Myung came together and decided to make music as a collective. They were later joined by members Kevin Moore as keyboardist and Chris Collins as lead vocals as the final and most current line up.

The band were originally called Majesty. While being a part of the band, the founding members found that it was beginning to clash with their studies, thus they decided that there was nothing more they could learn at the college and then decided to dedicate all of their time to music.

In 1986 while touring New York City the band began creating a string of demos which were very popular, they were titled 'The Majesty Demos' and within six months the 1,000 copies they created were completely sold out as their strength grew in the progressive metal scene.

In November 1986 Chris Collins was fired from the band and replaced by Charlie Dominici. The band increased the numbers of shows due to the talent of Charlie and their exposure grew and grew.

Majesty was forced to change their name as a Las Vegas band threatened to take legal action as it was a name owned by them before hand, thus the band went through discussions on what to name themselves, it was only when the father of Mike Portnoy suggested the name 'Dream Theater' due to him owning a small theater, the name liked this name and it became this.

Dream theater have released 12 albums as of 2014 with many of their albums being successful such as 'Images and Words' this album went gold and 'Awake' going platinum in Japan. The band have also gained much attention and have won awards such as Guitarist of the year, this was awarded to John Petrucci in 2007 by 'Total Guitar Paul Gillard'.

The band have done 27 tours and are currently on their 28th tour entitled 'Along For The Ride'.

Live reviews

This show was initially billed as having only Dream Theater in the bill, booked for a theater, sitting down and numbered chairs. It was advertised that Scenes From a Memory would be played in its entirety, along with a regular set.

To my surprise, on the week of the show itself, two opening acts "popped up" out of nowhere, leaving DT with a reduced stage time from 9:30PM to 11PM instead of the planned 6:30PM start time. Needless to say you can only fit 10 DT songs in a 1h30m show.

I bought my tickets specifically BECAUSE they would be playing SFAM in its entirety. Their latest record Distance Over Time might be the best of the last 6 records, but rather than that meaning it's a good record, it just shows how horrible the other 5 are.

After checking setlists in other places, I came to the conclusion they would be playing the exact same set here - heavy on the new material, some deep cuts that they felt like playing and NO fan pleasers. Yes, I mean a DT show without Pull Me Under or any other iconic DT song, unless you consider Peruvian Skies iconic.

Band came on stage 5 minutes late, opening with the new album's opening track. James' vocals were getting cut off - bad wireless mic? Acoustics at the Capitol Gent were great, but it was also hard to hear Mangini, especially the kick and cymbals - I guess setting the cymbals at a 2.2m height makes you lose all the power when hitting them, and having to stretch takes away all the force in the feet for the kick.

Mangini was as bad as always, no groove at all in heavier tunes like Lie and As I Am. He can play the new material competently, but so could a drum machine.

JP, JR and JM were all at the top of their games, and James tried a few interactions with the public. This being a sit down gig, the public's reaction was always very lukewarm, and the PA was so quiet my singing along was disturbing to the people around me.

All in all the whole endeavor felt very unsatisfying, and felt like watching a live recording of the new material without any interaction with the audience.

I have started a petition to claim refunds for the tickets, seeing as it was advertised they would play SFAM in its entirety, which you can sign here: http://chng.it/NVkYfqTXFm

I attended my 7th Dream Theater show at the historic Paramount Theatre in Denver this year. As always, the show left me feeling like I had just attended a clinic for each instrument played and at the same time I wanted more. The mark of a good show is leaving your audience with these feelings and Dream Theater did not disappoint then, nor have they ever. The music, for all its over-the-top soaring symphonic bombacity, is extremely easy to listen to (provided you are smart and wear hearing protection). My girlfriend, who is not a fan of their style of music, was very impressed by the show. Positives for this show were: 1) The new record is a lot more accessible to the casual fan and they played quite a few new songs. They were well rehearsed and included many impressive visuals. 2) The band were very receptive to the crowd and recognized very early on the "aeromatic" quality of the venue. 3) It is worth sticking around for the intermision. They played a collection of hilarious fan-submitted videos, most of which only a real DT fan would understand. 4) Awake is one of my favorite DT records, and they paid tribute to it by starting the second half of the show with a string of songs from the record. They blew the roof off the joint with The Mirror/Lie. 5) The whole show showcased their awesome instrumental talents and, suprisingly, James Labrie was in very good voice. On a lot of their live recordings, his voice comes off reedy and out of tune. Well done, James. The only negative was the venue itself. I've seen DT in places that could use a good wrecking ball taken to them and their music demands good acoustics. While the Paramount Theatre may be "historic," it is a bit of a dump. I had excellent seats and thorougly enjoyed the show, but would have enjoyed it a lot more in a quality venue. Perhaps the Paramount should transpose the "re" at the end of Theatre and not fool us into thinking it is an opera house. Overall, if I were to score the show on a 1 to 10 scale, I'd give it an 8-1/2, not a 10, just because of the venue.

Dream Theater @ The Fox Theater-Oakland, CA

8:00 PM - 11-00 PM (That's right ;)

Super pumped for the show... Arrived two hours early, found indoor parking (Thank God), had a bite to eat right next door to the Fox and then got in line...

Every kind of music fan was represented at the show. Some of the t-shirts I saw standing in line:

Yanni (wtf?)~Van Halen~Rush~Haken~Judas Priest~ Opeth~Between the Buried and Me~Prince~Jimi Hendrix~The Beatles~Tom Petty~Joe Satriani~Ayreon-Eric Clapton~Fates Warning~Iron Maiden~Dio~Black Sabbath~The Eagles~~~ Just to name a few...

I saw little kids, teenagers, 20 somethings, 30 somethings, 40 somethings, 50 somethings (That's me ;), all the way up to VERY OLD grandmas... (Oddly enough, I didn't see any grandpas ???)

Got into our seats at about 7:30 PM... They were playing some good hard rock over the PA---Rush~Iron Maiden~Metallica~~~ THEN.... Wait for it... Neil Diamond :O (Holy Cow)

Then the show started... It was so freaking loud..I mean LOUD (brain piercing LOUD)..Seriously, the loudest show I've ever been to (over 100)!!! TOO LOUD..

The musicianship was unparalleled... I wish I could say the same for James' voice--- He seemed to be flat most of the night and he was not even attempting to hit the high notes. Those days are gone :(

Nevertheless, it was FANTASTIC!!!! Played a great mix of songs before their first 20 minute break.. Came back with I&W in all its glory (albeit, tempered by James' obviously deteriorated vocal range)...

The encore was "A Change Of Seasons"... So AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad I went... Big News too... James said they will be recording a new album in 2018 with a release date sometime in 2019, followed by another tour!!

If you get the opportunity to see them on the I&W and Beyond tour, DO IT! You won't be sorry... Peace~

This is the 5th time I see Dream Theater in concert. At Cirkus in Stockholm, on March 1 2016, the band performed all songs from the new double CD "The Astonishing". Very brave of a rock band to build a tour on new songs without even well known songs as encores. But this is a unique band and I really admire them for doing this. The music and the performance was just great. Listening to 34 new songs take some time to get to know. On stage the songs gave the whole picture in an easier way. The background film and stage light gave the concert another dimension. Just incredible! The guys in Dream Theater manage to perform complex songs with ease and a smile on their faces! The communication within the band and with the audience is something other rock bands could learn from. This is entertainment but everyone is treated with respect and the fun side never falls into any kind of sillyness. No matter what songs are played I know I will be satisfied because of the professionalism this band show us.

I look forward the next time in Sweden. Hey, did I mention that the Meet & Greet was the best I have experienced? The arrangement was well planned. We were given good information, the meeting with the musicians was great, no hurry, autographs, merchandise and photos that turned out marvellous. Well worth paying for.

Massachusetts progressive metal outfit Dream Theater is known for a rousing live performance and unmatched dedication to the touring schedule. The group has been known on the circuit since the late 80s and it appears they are getting better with age as everything seems to be performed with even more effort and commitment with every single show.

They recognise there are fans here who have followed their career from the very beginning and reward them with performances of older tracks such as 'Lifting Shadows Off a Dream' and 'The Mirror'. The majority do seem to know the material though and the choruses are sang back in aggressive tones whilst the audience continues to surge and move in time with the thumping drum beats. The instrumental solos demonstrated could make your head spin as these five musicians are insanely talented. They leave the crowd with a feeling of euphoria as they have only seen all their favourite tracks performed, but also a real impressive metal live show. There is a triumphant moment as the five musicians walk to the front of stage following 'Finally Free' to enjoy the final rapturous applause.

When it was announced that Dream Theater will perform in Manila, I was not able to contain my excitement. I said that I will finally see Dream Theater by flesh. Come July 12th, pre-sale of tickets began. I bought the best package money can buy (Platinum VIP M&G). After I bought the package straight from the band's website (provided by you guys), I was not able to sleep properly that day due to excitement. At the meet and greet session, I was so excited and nervous that I did not properly compose what I'm going to say to Dream Theater; I just proceeded with greetings and small talk. When the show was about to begin, I was already standing for 4 hours. I asked myself if I can endure 3 more hours standing while watching Dream Theater rock Kia Theatre. When they finally showed up, the pain in my feet and legs vanished, as if there was 'magic'. They did not disappoint. All of us were enthusiastic. We sang with Dream Theater. Though I feel the after-effects of standing for 7+ hours when the show ended, it did not matter to me. 'The best' would still be an understatement to describe my experience watching Dream Theater.

Saturday 11 January 2020 -- AFAS Live

The Distance Over Time Tour

After a while, I still pretty clearly remember what a hopeless failure was the concert.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't fault of the musicians and I was ready to bear La Brie's recent whine. I had been to them before, so I thought it was totally worth it. Alas :-(

We sat right behind FOH desk, in a mid-to-top row. I had "music" ear buds that you can by at AFAS. Long story short, with the latter or without, guitar + bass + drums ~ already beyond comprehensible mix. Add heavily processed keys or high-reverbed vocals to the mix, or worse both, it went to a loud muddy mess that had few resemblance to Dream Theater music. Very close to the sound of a crappy local high-gain metal band in a concrete basement club. Seriously, even songs that I listened to tens of times like A Nightmare to Remember, I couldn't navigate. Total waste of money and time. Would've left after first break if I was alone.

Let me start this off with I am a huge Dream Theater fan and have all their Lps and have seen them 11 times since their start, The Astonishing was anything but that, almost every song started with a slow piano intro and then lots of vocal, I missed the old DT when James would walk off stage for 20 minutes and the boys could jam, He did leave the stage but would come back after only a few minutes, there was only one real guitar solo in the whole set and even though they all play as masters they never got up to any peek. Mikes drumming was lame and unimpressive performance. My gilrfriend slept through most of the show, But I understand she is not a fan and the show was BORING ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!

PS This was my Last DT show.

Dream Theater were amazing, the entire show was a spectacle with the graphics and the nomacs in the background and of course the amazing talent of John Petrucci and the rest of the gang. Mike Mangini's drum set was an awe to look at and the complex playing of everyone in the band showed a great degree of talent and musicianship from everyone in the band. Jordan Rudness's Keyboard/Piano playing was breathtaking and beautiful. Overall a stunning performance. James LaBrie is an amazing vocalist and John Myung is a wonder when he plays the bass. Such as great experience.

HOWEVER, that is the last time I attend a show at Portland's Merrill Auditorium. I didn't like having to sit down for most of the show, not a good venue for a band like Dream Theater.

Astonishing live DT in Nuremberg Germany:

It was perfect like listening the original record.

A negative thing, it was not allowed to take pictures or videos, and of course the German security people were unpolite while controlling it.

We felt like LaBrie was not very happy with the public, but it was not possible to know all the songs because it was a 100% new disc concert.

Interaction between the band and public almost zero, except with Petrucci who always tried to connect with us.

No classics in the concert, just 100% astonishing. Too long just with new ballads and songs

A gift of music, new beginning and new world were the best songs.

In general a good concert as expected but it would be better to play old songs as well.

Hundreds wait in the cold for Nutcracker tickets at Moscow's fabled Bolshoi Theater

Charles Maynes

In Russia, ballet fans brave sub-zero temperatures for a chance to see The Nutcracker at Moscow's famed Bolshoi Theatre.

ARI SHAPIRO, HOST:

In his recent year and address to the nation, Russian President Vladimir Putin called for patience with the war in Ukraine, saying the country would meet its goals. But in Moscow, the war can often seem far away, and NPR's Charles Maynes found Russians determined to show patience of another kind.

CHARLES MAYNES, BYLINE: Ultimately, you can blame it on math. Seventeen hundred - that's how many people fit in Moscow's fabled Bolshoi Theater.

(SOUNDBITE OF BOLSHOI THEATRE ORCHESTRA PERFORMANCE OF TCHAIKOVSKY'S "THE NUTCRACKER SUITE, OP.71A: NO 2A, MARCH OF THE TOY SOLDIERS")

MAYNES: Yet there are just 22 holiday performances of "The Nutcracker," the beloved 19th-century ballet by Russian composer Pyotr Tchaikovsky, heard here in a Bolshoi performance from 2014 - so 1,700 seats, 22 performances, which leaves around 37,000 "Nutcracker" tickets for a city of some 12 million, meaning at the Bolshoi, as in life, there are winners but more often losers. Outside the theater, hundreds of Russians brave subzero temperatures deep into the night in hopes of securing their golden ticket.

ANDREI: (Speaking Russian).

MAYNES: "We've been standing here for a long time, since 9 this morning," says Andrei, a Moscow university student who, like everyone in this story, agreed to speak on the condition his last name not appear in the American media. "But we'll stay until the end," he adds, "because 'The Nutcracker' is worth it."

RAIA: (Speaking Russian).

MAYNES: "It's such a beautiful ballet. I just wanted a chance to see it in my old age," says Raia, a retired cleaner who has lived in Moscow most of her life but never been to a "Nutcracker" production. And this gets to another issue. The Bolshoi sells only 400 "Nutcracker" tickets per day. To get them, you have to stand in line. Most people I spoke with were on their second try after a melee broke out the night before.

ZHENYA: (Speaking Russian).

MAYNES: "They opened the gates, and the crowd just shoved us out of the way," says Zhenya, a mother of two who works in the aviation industry. "If people were more cultured, they would have seen that pensioners and others have been waiting all day long," she adds. "Unfortunately, that's not the society we live in." On this night, riot police were on hand, but they mostly sat warm in their bus, the engine kicking acrid fumes over the same crowd police were, in theory, there to protect. If all of this - ballet, beauty, suffering and scarcity - sound like Russian tropes, well, here's another.

MAYNES: Corruption.

MAYNES: "What - you really think someone's not making money off of all of this," says Zhenya, glancing towards the front of the line.

BEK: (Speaking Russian).

MAYNES: "I'm supposed to stand here for 10 hours," admitted Bek, one of several migrant workers from Central Asia I met at the head of the queue.

UNIDENTIFIED PERSON #1: (Speaking Russian).

MAYNES: "He's a hired gun," said one of his friends as he and Bek gave a smile. In fact, people kept telling me all the ways a small fortune can be made for those looking to sell a spot in line. Russia, of course, is at war and under heavy Western sanctions because of it. But no one seemed to want to talk about Ukraine and maybe with good reason. These days, the wrong opinion can easily land you in jail. Still, the conflict was there, lurking just off-stage.

UNIDENTIFIED PERSON #2: (Speaking Russian).

MAYNES: As I joked that an endless line felt like something out of the USSR, Raia, the retired pensioner, told me she really did have nostalgia for the Soviet days.

MAYNES: "Honestly, things were so much calmer then. Today, there's that little war."

MAYNES: Her voice trailing off.

MAYNES: Andrei, the university student, told me that during hard times, Russians gravitated towards art. "To stand in line and talk to people, to listen to music and watch ballet - it brings me joy," he said. Meanwhile, Zhenya, the aviation worker, said if there was ever a time to see "The Nutcracker," it was now, with Russia cut off from Europe and travel to other destinations astronomically expensive.

MAYNES: "You can't go anywhere these days," she says. And so with New Year's just around the corner, she returns to the line, hoping for a different kind of ticket to better times. Charles Maynes, NPR News, Moscow.

A king becomes a hero

King Henry V strives to gain respect during England’s growing unrest, and he takes his father’s advice to turn the people’s attention toward foreign conquests, resolving to make a claim to the French crown. As the king prepares to set sail for France, an assassination plot is uncovered and England’s demands are rejected by France, raising the stakes and increasing the hostility in the air. The resulting Battle of Agincourt is a bold examination of power, camaraderie and courage against all odds as Henry leads his vastly outnumbered army to unexpected victory. The conquest not only turns a divided realm into a unified nation — it secures Henry’s place as one of England’s greatest warrior kings.

Theatres in Moscow

Cultural life of Moscow city is various and rich! Operas, ballets, symphonic concerts... Russian composers have created some of the most beautiful classical music. Russian classical music is very popular in Moscow. It is performed in many beautiful historical venues. Do not forget to include a visit to a concert hall in your itinerary when you are planning your stay in Moscow! And do it in advance.

There are almost no restrictions on dress code in Russian theatres. Visitors may wear jeans and sports shoes, they may have a backpack with them. Only shorts are not allowed.

A typical feature of Russian theatre – visitors are bringing a lot of flowers which they present to their favorite performers after the show.

Here are some practical advices where to go and how to buy tickets.

The Bolshoi Theatre

The Bolshoi Theatre is the oldest, the most famous and popular opera and ballet theatre in Russia. The word “Bolshoi” means “big” in Russian. You can buy a ticket online in advance, 2-3 months before the date of performance on the official website . Prices for famous ballets are high: 6-8 thousand rubles for a seat in stalls. Tickets to operas are cheaper: you can get a good seat for 4-5 thousand rubles. Tickets are cheaper for daytime performances and performances on the New Stage. The New Stage is situated in the light-green building to the left of the Bolshoi's main building. The quality of operas and ballets shown on the New Stage is excellent too. However, you should pay attention that many seats of the Bolshoi’s Old and New Stages have limited visibility . If you want to see the Bolshoi’s Old Stage but all tickets are sold out, you can order a tour of the theatre. You can book such a tour on the official website.

If you want, following Russian tradition, to give flowers to the performers at the end of the show, in the Bolshoi flowers should be presented via special staff who collects these flowers in advance.

In August the Bolshoi is closed.

The Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theatre

This theatre is noteworthy. On one hand, it offers brilliant classical opera and ballet performances. On the other hand, it is an experimental venue for modern artists. You can check the program and buy tickets online here http://stanmus.com/ . If you are opera lover, get a ticket to see superstar Hibla Gerzmava . The theatre has a very beautiful historic building and a stage with a good view from every seat. Tickets are twice cheaper than in the Bolshoi.

The Novaya Opera

“Novaya” means “New” in Russian. This opera house was founded in 1991 by a famous conductor Eugene Kolobov. Its repertoire has several directions: Russian and Western classics, original shows and divertissements, and operas of the 20th and 21st centuries. It is very popular with Muscovites for excellent quality of performances, a comfortable hall, a beautiful Art Nouveau building and a historic park Hermitage, which is situated right next to it. You can buy tickets online here http://www.novayaopera.ru/en .

Galina Vishnevskaya Opera Center

The Opera Center has become one of the best theatrical venues in Moscow. It was founded in 2002 by great diva Galina Vishnevskaya. Nowadays its artistic director is Olga Rostropovich, daughter of Galina Vishnevskaya and her husband Mstislav Rostropovich, great cellist and conductor. Not only best young opera singers perform here, but also world music stars do; chamber and symphonic concerts, theatrical productions and musical festivals take place here. You can see what is on the program here http://opera-centre.ru/theatre . Unfortunately “booking tickets online” is available in Russian only. If you need help, you can contact us at and we can book a ticket for you. 

Tchaikovsky Concert Hall and The Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory

These are two major concert halls for symphonic music in Moscow. Both feature excellent acoustics, impressive interior, various repertoire and best performers. You can check the program here http://meloman.ru/calendar/ . You need just to switch to English. Booking tickets online is available only for owners of Russian, Ukrainian and Belorussian phone numbers. If you need help, you can contact us and we can book a ticket for you. 

Moscow International Performing Arts Center (MIPAC)

This modern and elegant concert hall houses performances of national and foreign symphony orchestras, chamber ensembles, solo instrumentalists, opera singers, ballet dancers, theatre companies, jazz bands, variety and traditional ensembles. Actually, it has three concert halls placed on three different levels and having separate entrances. The President of MIPAC is People’s Artist of the USSR Vladimir Spivakov, conductor of “Virtuosy Moskvy” orchestra. You can see pictures of the concert halls here http://www.mmdm.ru/en/content/halls .

Pontine Theatre's: Robert Frost's New Hampshire, Portsmouth, April 2024

Pontine Theatre's Co-Artistic Directors created a new work based on the early poems of Robert Frost in 2019, which, due to the COVID pandemic, has never been performed before a live audience. The 2023-24 performance series will conclude with its long-delayed premiere.

Frost, a long-time summer resident of Franconia NH, received the first of four Pulitzer Prizes in 1924 for his volume: "New Hampshire: A Poem with Notes and Grace Notes." Known for his New England settings, his down to earth, stark depictions of the difficulties of rural farm life, and his use of colloquial speech, Robert Frost is widely admired as a true American Master

Harriet Munroe, publisher and editor of "Poetry," wrote that "perhaps no other poet in our history has put the best of the Yankee spirit into a book so completely." She notes that while Frost's narrative, character-based poems are often dark and satirical, Frost always has a "sympathetic humor" towards his subject.

Seating for this event is limited, please RSVP at our website by clicking the "Get Tickets" button or by calling (603) 436-0169. Light refreshments will be provided. Parking is available in our visitor lot. We are located near COAST bus routes: 44, 41, and 13.
