    This definitely blows the rest of the US summer tours out of the water.

    Interesting. Pretty diverse. Surprised they didn't put Opeth on there.

    I don't see what Opeth have in common with any of those bands.

    Yes because touring bands can't just have a general market now.

    from that list, that would be kind of the point.

    pretty wicked line up. fear factory, megadeth and nevermore. id love to see that. im going to the aus leg of the blackmail the universe tour. itd be wicked if one of those other two bands were support.

    I heard a rumor a while ago that Megadeth was going to be touring with Dream Theater.......so with this I found out there was actually something to it. I wouldn't have thought a lineup like this would happen. And Opeth is on the Sounds Of The Underground tour.....so they wouldn't be on this anyway because it conflicts.

    This sounds pretty great. Already beats out the other tours.

    Dillinger & their fans will be slaughtering every fan of every other band on that tour nightly. Especially the DT fanboys. It's gonna be brilliant. I'm there. :D

    I'd have thought DT fans would enjoy some avant-garde stuff like Dillinger. Glad to see a tour without Opeth, actually. After seeing them on that setlist with those annoying 'other' bands, I've lost any desire to see them this summer.


    And FEAR FACTORY, MOTHERFUCKERS!!!! YAAAAAAAASE!!!

    What a summer this will be for metal tours. What a summer.

    It's the difference between banging your own head and someone else doing it for you.
