Utah Has Dream Theater Day

08/01/07
. (Blabbermouth) Somebody better check Gov. Huntsman's iPod. When New York quintet DREAM THEATER took the stage at the Ford Theater Monday night in the E Center, it did so on its very own day, as designated by the governor.

Playing inside the Beehive State for the first time since 2000, the group invaded the stage after a video montage that introduced more than 20 years of the band's history with both images and music.

Vocalist James LaBrie announced to the crowd that the band's meeting with Huntsman led to the designation of "DREAM THEATER day in Utah." He credited the governor with a fair knowledge of the type of music the band plays and assured the crowd that there wouldn't be such a long pause between visits to Utah. - more on this story
