Anyone going to this? It's the end of the Grace For Drowning tour. I've not even had a proper chance to listen to Grace For Drowning yet but the gig's so near me I couldn't justify not going.

Hi all 

I'm going with four friends. Genuinely cannot wait! 

Saw the gig in October and it was a phenomenal experience. I think the use of visuals, atmosphere, quadrophonic certainly gives an extraordinary vibe about the concert! On that note, every single musician Steven has got with him on tour are all virtuosic and sound ridiculously good together.

looking forward to the new song they are going to feature as well. It will be interesting to see what that sounds like.

Do they play any material from Steven's other projects or is it strictly solo career material? It'd be neat to hear some Porcupine Tree numbers in the set.

I think we have had a setlist on another thread, and my understanding was it was all solo stuff.

Could be wrong, thoughBig smile

There is NO other projects preformed during the gig. 
Great set and the show is an elevated form of the album. Have a great time.

Saw him when he played in Bergen, Norway last Saturday. I'm not a great fan of the "metal" era PT and haven't gotten around to buying Grace For Drowning, but it was much better than what I expected, blew the one PT show I've been to out of the water. Marco Minnemann on the drums was immense and Theo Travis was his usual outstanding self.
 
As has been said already, it was solo material only, nothing PT or any other projects. The new song, Luminol, was the highlight of the concert in my opinion. Enjoy! :)
