4/1 dt concert

Just got back from the sold out 20th anniversery show at Radio City Music Hall!

It was incredible!

They had an alright first set. They did Another won( their first song ever when they were Majesty) and Raise the knife( a great song that never made it onto an album becase of the nazi-like record producers) and those were really cool to see done.

They had the theme of going chronologically form the beginng to there current state of career.

So it starteted with Root of all Evil and I walk beside you because its the octavarium tour. But then they started from the begining

Another Won

Afterlife

Under a Glass Moon

Innocence faded( james hit the F# incredibly)

Raise the Knife

Spirit Carries on ( awesome solos and overall energry)

-intermission-

Then the curtains rise up to reveal a full 30 piece orchestra and they start playing the Overture to 6doit

then they continue to play all of the second disc with the orchestra! it was incredible

Then...

Vacent( still w/ orch)

The answer lies within

Sacrificed Sons

Octavarium

-encore-

Metropolis pt 1

 

 

It was an incredible concert

To have the orch for the full second set and encore was unbeliveable!

Darn... they never play what I want them to play!

Gonna buy it! Gonna buy it as soon as possible!!!

I'm crying of happiness.

...and I hear they were selling their version of DSOTM for $20 at the merch booths!!!

Wow...the whole Six Degrees is awesome. I'm glad they played Under a Glass Moon for the album too. I would be slightly disappointed with the selections from Scenes and Train of Thought, but Live Scenes and Budokan alrady have all I need from both of those, with Vacant being an exception, and they played that here. I would have liked Learning to Live too, especially with LaBrie hitting the high notes, but I can't complain; this is going to be great.

I was at the show as well, almost cried when I realized they were going to do all the 6 Degrees.  I never though I would see it done live.  But now it seems I'll probably have seen it done live for the last time, and the only time with a full orchestra.

It is so great to hear about incredble performances and concerts....


What to me is so sad is that there is so little recorded history of the best concerts of the early rock era...

I attended an amazing concert in South London in 1970 w/ Mountain/Rod Stewart and Pink Floyd at the Crystal Palace Bowl,,,, but I can find nothing about it on the net>>>>>>>>>>>
