Grammy Award-winning guitarist John Petrucci, founder of progressive metal giants Dream Theater will embark on his first-ever headlining solo tour of North America this Fall. The 28-date North American tour kicks off this October 5th in Providence, RI, and concludes in Toronto, ON, on November 17th.
John will be promoting his 2020 solo album, “Terminal Velocity,” since he was never able to tour in support of it due to the pandemic and lockdown. He will also be playing songs off his 2005 solo album “Suspended Animation.” John will be joined by bassist Dave LaRue and his former Dream Theater drummer and band-mate Mike Portnoy. It is the first time he and Mike will have played live since Mike's departed from Dream Theater in 2010.
Opening for the instrumental trio will be the all-female heavy metal band, Mean Streak, which just happens to be comprised of John's wife Rena Sands on guitar, Mike's wife, Marlene Portnoy on guitar, Dream Theater's bassist John Myung's wife Martens Myung on bass and bandmates Bettina France on vocals, and Yael on drums. The family affair concert should be an unforgettable evening for fans.
