It can be said that Dream Theater and Indonesia love each other. August 2022 saw Dream Theater’s last visit to Indonesia, and now, just nine months later, they will be back for another Top Of The World concert in May 2023.
The last Dream Theater concert took place in the courtyard of the Manahan Stadium, Solo, organized by Rajawali Indonesia. It was a success, and the band enchanted around 9,000 fans packed in the venue.
Dream Theater – John Petrucci with fan, August 2022.
“We just love to play our instruments,” John Petrucci said. “That never goes away. I love to be creative, write, and exercise that part of my mind. We’ve been able to do this for a long time, and we don’t take it for granted. Whenever we get together, we know we can’t disappoint ourselves or our fans, so we manage to try even harder.”
