It's very good ... I love the DVD with the audio commentary by the band. But Budokan is just unbelievable.

Is the CD the same as the DVD? Well, if it is, then i have heard it (i have the DVD), but it is still on my wishlist.

Live at the Marquee!  One of the best live albums ever recorded.  Has anyone noticed Portnoy's fill at the end of Metropolis (8:34)?  There's no fill there in the studio version, but this live one is just perfect.  Revved up version of Fortune in Lies was perfect way to start a live album.  Live version of Killing Hand is the greatest thing I've ever heard DT do...can't say enough about this album.

It has it's moments ... but it is also short and the sound quality is poor, I'd rather call it a bootleg.

EDIT: I listened to it again just now ... the overall sound quality is not that bad. But the keyboards and guitar sound thin and tinny, and the vocals are a bit too "off" at times.

Tossup between LAB and LSINYC, but I'll go with LSINYC because of the superior setlist.

I think the sound quality is excellent, and even if it's only 46 minutes, it's still great.

In fact its album length! A great live album IMO but I voted Live time!

Live At Budokan for me. Great sound quality etc. but the live versions of "As I Am" "Stream Of consciousnes" and "In The Name Of God" really kick ass

Without any doubt the overflyer LSFNY!

Best setlist, the full SFAM album in furious live versions, you really feel the unbelievable atmosphere during the whole concert, one of the best live albums of all time!

This album is so underrated! I personally think this is Jame's best performance... he adds a ton of emotion and hits notes he's never hit before... truly amazing!

As much as I like Kevin Moore I still vote for Live Scenes . . .
