Devin Townsend. Saw him live, warming up for Dream Theater, in 2022. In addition to providing a kickass set, it was hilarious.

Fun fact: My employer paid for my plane ticket and hotel stay that evening. It "just so happened" that I had something to do at the head office at the same time my two favorite artists were performing nearby.. sure, I had something work-related to do, but my timing was no accident.

UPDATE: Looks like Dream Theater will be in the area again in November. Sounds like it's time for a department-wide meeting, don't you think?
