Progressive Nation UK 2009??

[ilai fields #7]

אם זה אמיתי כ"כ שווה אני חושב לעשות משלחת!!!!

Description: Dream Theater will perform a one-off version of their Progressive Nation tour in the UK, expanding it into a 2 Stage extravaganza, over one day at the 02 Arena. The running order is as such:

Main Stage (02 Arena):

Dream Theater
Tool
Opeth
Meshuggah
Porcupine Tree
Mastodon
Symphony X
Cynic

Second Stage (Indig02):

King Crimson
Zappa Plays Zappa
Spock's Beard
Van Der Graaf Generator
Pain of Salvation
The Flower Kings
Shadow Gallery
Beardfish

The show will contain several exclusive appearances from several bands. This is Tool's only other show this year apart from the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago, Illinois. It will also mark the start of a small European tour by King Crimson with dates in Berlin, Paris and Moscow. It will also mark special one-off European appearances from Van Der Graaf Generator, The Flower Kings and Shadow Gallery. It will also be the only Progressive Nation date outside of North America, with the support bands from the North American leg, Zappa Plays Zappa, Beardfish and Pain of Salvation, all appearing at this concert.

This show is an all-day show, with each band getting at least 45 minutes, and Dream Theater and King Crimson getting 2 Hour sets. Mike Portnoy had this to say on the concert:

"We wanted to extend the Progressive Nation format outside of America, in the form of something really special. Britain has always held a special place in Dream Theater's heart and it made perfect sense to hold it in London. We used the near-incestous nature of the Prog Metal scene to rally up bands such as Opeth, Tool and Meshuggah, who had performed with each other, but never at the same occasion, and put on a great bash showing what Progressive Music is, and incorporate it into a real occasion! This is going to be a throw-back to the days of Yes and Genesis, where they would have great bills over several hours showcasing some of the most amazing progressive talent around. On September 12th, the United Kingdom will definitely become a TRUE Progressive Nation!"

Dream Theater are scheduled to play the Download Festival, along with Opeth and Meshuggah, as well as headlining two warm-up dates in Leeds and Southampton on the 12th and 13th of June. Their new album "Black Clouds & Silver Linings" is due to hit the shops on June 23rd.
Cost Payment required. £25.00

אני בספק אם זה אמיתי כי המחיר ממש ממש ממש ממש זול, אבל אני חייב אישור לזה!

ההודעה על פרוגרסיב ניישן ב-UK באה *אחרי* שהשמועה לעיל חגגה ברשת. אם זה היה אמיתי, ומייק פורטנוי אכן היה אומר את מה שכתוב שמה - זה היה מופיע בפורום שלו קודם כל, ואח"כ בכל מקום אחר.
זו שמועה שנגוזה.

רק לפי הליין אפ ברור לגמרי שזה בדיחה...

חבל, ה -o2 Arena זה ליד הבית שלי.

כן כי להקות כמו קינג קרימזון ו-ואן דר גראף ג'נרייטור יופיעו על במה שנייה בעוד סיניק,משוגע ומאסטודון(Who the fuck?)יופיעו על הבמה המרכזית.
