LIVE SCENES FROM NEW YORK

"Metropolis part II, Scenes from a Memory" is a masterpiece itself. But when Petrucci and Co. take the instruments and start to play live, the perfection becames magic. I really don't know a group so prepared from tecnical point of view. But is not the same thing. The site puts Dream Theatre in prog metal style, but I think that this album demonstrate that DT can play every kind of prog. The album plays tracks from the first album to the last ("Metropolis part II, Scenes from a Memory" is a concept album, so they played all the tracks) with changes of style from really prog metal to prog most inspired by Genesis. Is a 360° prog band. Then they had the courage to play for the first time all "Change of Season" live (in other lives they played only one part or two. Really recommended, even in DVD. But in DVD there are only the songs from "Metropolis part II, Scenes from a Memory" and the songs of the third CD of the album.
