Dream Theater will bring their Distance Over Time Tour to the UK in 2020.
The prog legends will call at London's Eventim Apollo on February 21 and Glasgow's SEC Armadillo on February 23, as part of a wider European tour. Tickets go on general sale starting at 9am on September 16.
The tour supports the band's latest album, 'Distance Over Time', which arrived back in February. Each show will consist of a near three-hour set containing music from the new LP as well as a run through of 1999's 'Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory', part of the record's ongoing 20th anniversary celebrations.
Guitarist John Petrucci said:
"The response to Distance Over Time has been overwhelmingly positive and we are really looking forward to playing some of the songs from that album live for our European audiences in an Evening With setting along with our full headlining show production.
"For those of you who were there when we premiered 'Scenes From A Memory' live in Europe 20 years ago, this will not only be a trip down memory lane but also the chance to see it presented in a completely new light and the way it was always intended to be. Our updated presentation has all-new animated video content depicting the characters and storyline through the entire show as they’ve never been ‘scene’ before!
"For those of our fans who were either not born yet, too young, or had not yet been introduced to DT 20 years ago, this will be a fresh opportunity to experience Scenes live for the first time in its entirety. We can’t wait to perform for all of you!"
Dream Theater Upcoming Tour Dates are as follows
Fri February 21 2020 - LONDON Eventim Apollo
Sun February 23 2020 - GLASGOW SEC Armadillo
