If I were to go to one of the shows, the Chicago shows are probably my best bet since they are on the weekend. They need to stop in Detroit on June 21st on their way from Toronto to Chicago. Or I could fly out to LA to see them play on my birthday. -------------

Aww yee. I don't really know where I'll be around that time, but I'd be willing to drive quite a long way to see them. I spose Philly isn't out of the question, either, but I don't see the point when Chicago's right there. Don't remember if I've ever been to Park West...

Is Park West in the city or is it in one of the suburbs? -------------

I found it on the map. That might be doable. I have a friend that only lives a couple of blocks from there. If I stay at his condo it would eliminate the costs of having to rent a hotel room. -------------

Amazing! Finally I can see them in Toronto! I loved seeing them in Montreal, but this will be much easier on my bank account  ------------- A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!! |

I might try to go to the Boston show. By the 16th I'll be out of school so it's much more doable. I could stay in my sister's apartment if needed as well, so this might work out quite nicely. ------------- http://ow.ly/8ymqg" rel="nofollow">

I'll be seeing Marillion at the same venue I saw Fish just a few years ago. Fish was the best concert I've ever seen, so I have very high expectations for this one. So pumped. Probably going to show up in a Clutching at Straws shirt and Fish makeup and glare at Hoagie from the front row. -------------

| No Seattle ... oh well, I'll pass. The trip to LA and SF to see Transatlantic was enough of that sort of jaunt. |

They can only do so much. They aren't Rush, in terms of popularity here in the States. I'll be seeing them June 27th in Hollywood. Should be exciting. There's a 2 day pass for the LA shows and I thought about it but too much money, IMO.  -------------

| Of course, no Detroit date. Maybe if they wanted to be bigger in the US they should tour more around here. Open for other bands if they have to. This really isn't a tour, maybe a promotional jaunt. |

I shot them an email suggesting that they stop in Detroit on their way from Toronto to Chicago. They have to drive through Detroit anyways. No response, of course. -------------

No band I like has ever once come to Thunder Bay, aside from Alice Cooper and Flogging Molly. So lame. |
