GALLERY: An Evening With DREAM THEATER Live at Meridian Hall, Toronto, CA

On the evening of Wednesday, March 2nd, progressive metal legends Dream Theater graced the stage at Meridian Hall for the Toronto stop of their “Top of the World Tour”.

This tour, which had been postponed from the previous fall, comes in support of the band’s fifteenth studio album, “A View From the Top of the World”, released in October of last year. Due to Ontario’s COVID-related restrictions, there was plenty of uncertainty regarding whether or not this show would be able to happen. Fortunately for a few thousand fans and ticket holders, capacity limits for concert venues were lifted on the first of the month, just in time for this show to proceed as planned.

Here are some of the craziest moments of the evening:
