Got my e-mail today.. Saw them at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco on the Whirlwind tour.
Transatlantic live cannot be missed!!
If anyone knows of a hotel within walking distance of the venue, please let me know.
Thanks Jim!!
I'm glad it's a Friday and not in the middle of the week. My chances of attending are pretty strong!

Holy shoot! Now the question is if they will be playing any of the newly recorded material. What was the release date for that, again?

Innocence and undying love will reign." - Transatlantic
Yes, I expect they'll be playing most of the new album on this tour. Sounds like the album is nearing completion and the tour was scheduled to happen right after its release. Sounds like North America the first week of February (anyone have any word on dates after the CA opener on 1/31?), and they put aside time for South America too, though I don't know if that's happening yet. Then their ProgNation cruise in late February, and Europe in March. Might be the biggest TA outing ever!
Looking forward to new music!
Montreal - L'Olympia February 6.
The venue looks like its four blocks from Dockweiler Beach and four blocks from LAX Airport. It's at the El Segundo High School campus, so its in a residential area. But the proximity to LAX provides a number of hotel options close by, with a very short taxi drive.
PJ may know better.
Rock & Brews is nearby on Main St. They have a decent selection of craft beer.
If there's no Toronto date (and I doubt there will be), I'll probably have to hit this show. Saw them in Montreal in 2010 at The Metropolis and they were fantastic! I've been to L'Olympia several times now, so that's familiar territory for me as well (seen nine Marillion shows over three weekends there ).

The beloved Best Buy theater is probably in the cards.
Sold out TLA last time, but I can't see them doing any bigger. Could go to Troc or Keswick.
We're working on a "host" hotel with a CalProg rate. Stay tuned.
The venue is new to us, but when Jim and I checked it out, we loved it. It is a beautiful old theatre but most importantly, it has had a very big technical makeover so the lights, etc., are right up there in my book. The parking is plentiful and free in the lots and the streets. It is in a nice little neighborhood. Parts of Superbad were filmed there.
...but screw Superbad! Transatlantic is coming!!!! We get to host the rehearsals, too. Always a great time. Because my husband is doing the Making Of Documentary, I've heard the album. Holy Freakin' multi-colored Moly!!!! That is all I can say.
We will be busy as all get-out because the week before, we have Stickmen/ Aristocrats in Whittier, then rehearsals all week for TA, then the show. Viva la Prog!
Tickets go on sale this Saturday bright and early only at http://calprog.com
