If you are interested, please follow these instructions:

- in the subject line of the email, put the name of the city you are submitting your entry for (only one city per band can be submitted)

- do not email any attachments or downloadable files!
- do not email personal letters, bios, info or notes for Dream Theater!!!
- only email from each band will be accepted, so do not send multiple emails
- email the info to: [email protected]
Failure to follow any of these instructions will result in the email being deleted and elimination from the contest.
We will only accept the first 20 entries from each city, so time is of the essence!
The chosen winners for each city must agree that by winning this contest:
- they will be given 30 minutes of stage time before Dream Theater's set
- a full soundcheck is not guaranteed (but Dream Theater will do everything in their abilities to provide it)
- they will be responsible for their own expenses incurred in playing the show
- they will be responsible for bringing their own crew (details will be sorted out in advance with Dream Theater's crew)
