01.A Nightmare to Remember
02.A Rite of Passage
03.Hollow Years
04.Keyboard Solo
05.Erotomania
06.Voices
07.The Count of Tuscany
Encore:
08.Metropolis Pt. 1

Not really sure what to think about this. Seven songs seems like a total joke, but if you do the math it works out to be about 80-90 minutes, so I guess it's not terrible. The first 3 songs are no surprise, I would've bet on them. Happy about the fact that they're doing The Count of Tuscany, and Metropolis Pt. 1 is probably my favorite DT song, so no complaints. It just seems like there should be more to this.
I can only assume Solitary Shell, Caught in a Web, possibly As I Am, and a few other random things will be popping up in the set lists to come.

This was the tour kick-off wasn't it?

Interesting set. But yeah with the song lengths, 8 songs is just about right. My show is still far away though. Last show of the US tour. August 29th

kinda glad this isnt coming to Phoenix, im waiting for a straight up headlining tour, hoping to get a better set.

Hey Nick, they're not gonna play Voices right?

If anyone gets a Bigelf set, that would be awesome.

I find nothing wrong with only 8 songs. Its Dream Theater so 8 songs can make a 90 minute set.Its cool to see a nightmare to remember and the count of tuscany in the set. The two best songs on the new album and 2 of their best songs.

I felt this way after Pain of Salvation dropped off the tour.

It's a good set for the length. I'm a bit surprised that they only did 7 songs though. When DT headlines on their own they usually do around 12 songs. I checked their web page and going by the set times for the shows it doesn't look like they're getting much time so that will explain the short length. A lot of venues have their set starting at 9:20 which doesn't leave a lot of time since a lot of places in the US have an 11 pm curfew. I wonder if DT is upset to be getting that short of time on their own tour?

The show I went to didn't end til like 12.
