Dream Theater Announce Second Leg of Scenes From a Memory 20th Anniversary Tour

This past spring I witnessed Dream Theater perform their iconic 1999 album Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes From a Memory in full at New York City’s Beacon Theater, and it was hot damn magical. For a whole lot of Dream Theater fans Scenes is THE album, and frontman James LaBrie seemed to acknowledge as much from the stage, telling the crowd between songs, “it seems this one resonated with folks.” I completely lost my shit during “Dance of Eternity” and absolutely welled up during “The Spirit Carries On.” Like I said, magical.

Those who didn’t have a chance to see that special tour — an “evening with” show that featured a “greatest hits” set (loaded up with a few tracks from the band’s latest album, Distance Over Time) followed by the Metropolis performance after an intermission — will now have that chance, as Dream Theater have announced a second leg for this coming fall that’ll hit some smaller North American markets.
