A special ‘Up Close and Personal’ show at the Troubadour, Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, Tuesday October 18th 2011.

DragonForce will return to the US after a two year absence to perform a special one-off intimate show.

Being the only show in western North America this year, tickets will be strictly limited to two per person and only be available through the Troubadour box office and web-site. Tickets goes on sale 5/13/2011 at 1pm PST. This is an all ages show with tickets priced at $22 advance, $25 day of the show. Doors open at 6.30pm, guest artists to be announced.

Comment by Kevin G — May 13, 2011 @ 21:34

Wow a show in La in october. Looks like that whole announcement thing only concerned people that lived in the western United States. Ill try to go there from New Jersey. But October is a long time from now.
Comment by jurij cirone — May 13, 2011 @ 21:35

I’m curious to hear DragonForce with marc!!!
Comment by Kyle D — May 13, 2011 @ 21:36

LA is far away from the east coast. Not everyone in the US is so lucky.
Comment by MOTORWARRIOR — May 13, 2011 @ 21:36

I think that a story would have been even greater release of a new disk or transmit it over the web for people who can not go like the poor of Mexico
Comment by TTFAF — May 13, 2011 @ 21:37

I agree with Nico… its a great new for North American fans, but i´m from paraguay and i´m very dissapointed to… i was waiting for a sample song ;(
Comment by Kevin G — May 13, 2011 @ 21:37

The Iron Maiden shows will be on the internet before this. Why couldnt it have been in New York City?
Comment by Magnar Skorgenes — May 13, 2011 @ 21:39

Well,now,after all this waiting,i expect you to come to Norway on your world tour. WANT TO SEE YOU LIVE!!!!
Comment by John Doe — May 13, 2011 @ 21:39

What do you mean by ‘preview’? Weren’t you going to release the album in September?
Comment by nerdzilla33 — May 13, 2011 @ 21:41

Comment by JNLP — May 13, 2011 @ 21:41

So… the great announcement was this? I tought was something concerning the new album… =/
Comment by Jesse — May 13, 2011 @ 21:42

This got my hopes up for nothing… thanks DF. I’m in America but still wont be able to go. Thought this would be new album info…………… im upset now.
Comment by TTFAF — May 13, 2011 @ 21:43

They shouldn’t make the expectatives so big for the new, because the new is just for USA, not for the entire world how we expect…
Comment by Ole Knudsen — May 13, 2011 @ 21:44

After pressing F5 this whole friday, I was hoping for some news about the album or something but its ok….. An update with some news about the album would be great. I think that was what most of the fans were expecting.
Comment by dave — May 13, 2011 @ 21:45

I am disappointed by the news
Comment by Freiteez — May 13, 2011 @ 21:46

Just bought 2 tickets. THANK YOU Dragonforce for coming to my hometown!!! Can’t wait to hear Marc and the new music.
Comment by Chris117 — May 13, 2011 @ 21:52

Why dont you hype us up for something you can share with all your entire fan base something like a song or an album. Not a show half way across the fucking globe.
Comment by John Doe — May 13, 2011 @ 21:56

I guess I’d feel more satisfied if it was a rickroll.
Comment by Joel penman — May 13, 2011 @ 21:59

Comment by DemonFlames — May 14, 2011 @ 07:34

What? I thought it would be about the new album. I’m from Sweden so I’m a bit disappointed!
Comment by wzm — May 14, 2011 @ 07:52

Wow…this is good for the american DF fans but NOT good for the european fans! I’m dissapointed to read this…
I hope you will come to Ludwigsburg or Stuttgart on your World Tour!.. \m/
Comment by valyyo26 — May 14, 2011 @ 10:25

very dissapointing i was waiting for something regarding new album
Comment by mikey jones — May 14, 2011 @ 16:40

damn :/ hurry up and just tour the uk already
Comment by Taylor — May 14, 2011 @ 17:16

Very very VERY dissapointing indeed. I mean yeah im sure the show would be great, and Im even halfway there unlike most people, im in Nebraska US but because if my financial situations I cant go. I was really hoping for You guys to at least post up a song for us to download or listen to and tell us when the new album is supposed to be out. I mean yeah, it said september but still. I’d love to go to the show but the cost of traveling and everything else I cant. I still want something like a sample or a better projected release date. If you guys are doing this show, your album must be finished, why not push the release date sooner? I bet that would make at least some of your fans you just let down happy.
Comment by Helena — May 14, 2011 @ 18:25

I agree with Magnar Skorgenes come to Norway!!!!!!! I’m also dissapointed that it wasn’t anything about the new album… Lucky USA…
Comment by Quinton — May 14, 2011 @ 18:35

haha yes! i am so going to this!!!
Comment by William — May 14, 2011 @ 19:44

Comment by JNuno — May 14, 2011 @ 19:47

Well, you can’t really please everyone all the time – and the album will still be out anyway, were just 4 months from the release, more or less. Good luck for the gig!

Comment by Paul — May 31, 2011 @ 17:21

i wish i could go, i live in oregon but my mom is bitching about me going to California for a (in quote) “A loud annoying concert”. She just has a bad taste in music and wants to punish me for loving one of the best bands of the century and seeing them at such a low price. though i can’t wait for when i can go, hope to all going that they enjoy seeing marc
