I’m excited!  This isn’t breaking news but I’m only just getting around to post this information.  PT have announced that they will be going on a short European tour to film material for a new live DVD.  This will be the last time that the FoaBP tour setlist will be performed, and thankfully, it will be preserved in a live DVD for us fans to cherish forever.  PT’s first DVD, Arriving Somewhere… was an excellent DVD.  The sound was top-notch and the band did a great job of recreating their songs live.

Ever since FoaBP came out and PT went on tour, I’ve been wishing for a good, live recording of Anesthetize.  The band plays it well live and I wanted an official live version.  Now, I’ll get my wish.  I’m guessing that the DVD will come out in early 2009 which is still a long time away.  Who knows, PT might go on tour to support the DVD and they might even start previewing new songs, like they did with Arriving Somewhere…

The songs I’m most excited for are:  Anesthetize, Dark Matter, Way Out of Here, Sleep Together, A Smart Kid, and Fear of a Blank Planet.  I’m not sure if all of these will make the cut - A Smart Kid might get replaced by something else.  It would be great if they’d pick out songs from the first leg of the FoaBP tour like Sever, Drown With Me, Lightbulb Sun, and Gravity Eyelids.  This wait is going to kill me.

Also, I apologize if my writing has been piss-poor today.  I’m tired and sleepy after all the work I had to do this past week.
