HEVYDEVY FORUMS

Did you see the Devin Townsend Project at the Marquis in Denver?

Please post your reviews, setlists, photos and video links here!

Thanks!

This was definitely the best show I've ever been to. I had the VIP package, and Devin really did not disappoint! At any other artist's meet and greet, I feel like the band would just walk by the quiet guy looking at the ground. Devin walked up, shook my hand, and offered to sign everything I was carrying. Really nice guy, he shook everybody's hand, and made eye contact. I will definitely be splurging for the VIP package next time he comes to town. Band T-shirts were 20 bucks, hoodies 40 bucks, signed DTP albums 20 bucks, and I think the Ziltoid puppets were $25.

The opening band (Arcanium) was very talented, but also very generic. Word on the street is that they use family money to pay venues and bands to let them open for big names. The Ocean was very good, despite a few hiccups with the sound.

Here's what I remember of the setlist, though there was probably more:
By Your Command
Life
Truth
Bad Devil
Supercrush
Stand
Juular
Vampira
Hyperdrive
Deep Peace

Devin was interactive, and seemed to play all of the songs flawlessly. My neck and back have never been more sore after a concert.

bummer he didn't have the ziltoid puppets at my show

He's talked about selling them online before, so hopefully he'll do that.

The Ziltoid puppets were stuck in customs for two weeks, and the first show to get them was the Colorado Springs show (which I went VIP for). So, I was among the first group of people to get my hands on a Ziltoid puppet!

The only songs I can see missing from that setlist is "Om," which I think was played after "Truth," and "Disruptr," which he played before "Supercrush!" I think they played one of the catchy riffs from "Regulator" for a bit too (the one after the chorus), but I'm not sure.

I went to the Colorado Springs and the Denver show, but posted about my experiences in the Colorado Springs thread.

Did anyone receive their VIP Laminates? They had not arrived by 12:30 after the show so I just left. AWESOME show though! It was amazing seeing Dev in such a small venue! I am glad they changed up the setlist a bit, but kept Deep Peace! The VIP was great as well, they were all so nice and fun to talk to. I will definitely be getting the VIP package again when they come back through Denver.

This was the best DT concert I've been to (my 3rd). The band and crowd had great energy, and everybody was going crazy. Fucking awesome. And my wife bought a Ziltoid puppet, also awesome,
