I can't believe they aren't coming anywhere near the Maryland/DC area.

Very true Catcher10 ... and we can enjoy ourselves there during the wasted interlude that Trivium will be.

^ Showbox is such a loud venue.....I will have to wear earplugs during Trivium so I can try to enjoy Dream Theater....and possibly leave them half in during DT show.

iTunes free download of the week is the Trivium song Forsake Not The Dream. I'm not familiar with them at all, so now I can check them out. Expectations aren't very high as a result of reading this thread, but what the heck.

They're basically high quality metalcore without the cheesyness. Shogun is actually a really good album; it has a lot of progressive twists as well.

My buddies and I bought our tickets to the Montreal show...our billionth concert of 2011!(Aussie Floyd, Rush, Deep Purple, RTF IV, Peter Frampton all before the start of the summer...we're rounding out the year with Daltrey's Tommy show, DT and some killer center-fourth row seats for Anderson and Wakeman) I once had a very damaging experience at a death metal/thrash metal whatever the hell they want to call it show, where I was cornered against the stage by moshpitting idiots, right next to the right channel tower and right under the terrible band. We've since put into action a "no sh*tty music live clause," and our group will be arriving fashionably late to this show. No Trivium for these stuck-up kids. lol Anyway, I can't wait for the show!! They've been playing "The Count" on this tour. I hope they keep it in the setlist. I'll be leading a chant for "Octavarium" regularly, though. :p

Thanks!! My wife and I drove down in 2010 for the Rush Time Machine show at Mountainview.........maybe next time, we did like the venue.
Just received notice that the Seattle show has been moved from the Showbox to The Moore Theater due to high demand!!!!! This is awesome theater, filled with much musical history especially the grunge era. Queensryche filmed Mindcrime DVD there, so has Alice/Chains and the famous MTV video for Pearl Jam showing Vedder jumping into the crowd. And its not GA....stadium seating with 2 balconys.......Its gonna be a great show now at a better venue.

Setlist from the LA show last night. I went and a fantastic show. I noticed they're not stickign to the same setlist, necessarily, which is cool.
1. Bridges in the Sky 2. These Walls 3. Build Me Up, Break Me Down 4. Endless Sacrifice 5. Drum Solo 6. The Ytse Jam 7. Wait for Sleep (great moment in the concert, IMO; I thought they might have continued with "Learning to Live" but they didn't lol) 8. Far From Heaven 9. The Great Debate 10. On the Backs of Angels 11. Caught in a Web 12. Through My Words 13. Fatal Tragedy 14. Breaking All Illusions (Also a great moment in the concert!) Encore: 15. Pull Me Under Hope all that are going enjoy! It was awesome.

The SF show (as I am sure all will be) was AMAZING.
SO proud of the new addition to the band. Mike tore it up!
Trivium was a joke however...
