I consider this video to be an overlooked gem from "the Moore era" of the band. LaBrie is in top form at this show and really goes to town on To Live Forever. The support band, Galactic Cowboys, come to the stage to do backing vocals for Take The Time. The audio and video quality are both good, and the cameraman does a good job of focusing in on all the different band members (many videos I've watched focus disproportionately on LaBrie or Petrucci). Watching footage from this era of the band always makes me smile, because everything is in its right place. These poor guys probably did not know at the time that this was the peak of Dream Theater, and that the spokes were going to start coming off the wagon only a year later when Moore quit, to the point of the band becoming nigh unlistenable in my opinion (both studio and live) in the mid twenty-teens. Now you know why I'm not sharing anything on this blog after 2012.

Dream Theater - The Complete Forbidden Dreams Boxset In FLAC

Image
This was released on the Japanese Bondage Music label in 2002, and features three superb soundboard recordings which I consider to be essential for any DT bootleg collector. The first one is from IMP AKA Imperial Hall in Osaka 1992/11/19. This one also goes under the names Images and Tour '92 (vol. 1 of the "Soundboard Masters" series) and Osaka Samurai, and there is an audience recording of this same show which gets erroneously billed under the name Moon Bubbles as the Shibuya Kokaido in Tokyo 1992/11/18. The second recording is from Festival Hall in Osaka 1993/08/28, which also goes under the names Music In Progress Tour '93 (vol. 2 of the "Soundboard Masters" series) and Mission: Impossible. The third recording is from Koseinenkin Hall, Tokyo 1995/01/23, and also goes under the names Waking Up The World Tour '95 (vol. 3 of the "Soundboard Masters" series), and Tokyo Dragons. There's also considerable overlap between these reco

Date: July 4th Location: Palaghiaccio Some DVD specs: PAL Setlist: 01. Under A Glass Moon 02. The Mirror 03. Lie 04. Lifting Shadows Off A Dream 05. A Change Of Seasons 06. Surrounded 07. Erotomania 08. Voices 09. The Silent Man 10. Pull Me Under 11. Wait For Sleep (acoustic) 12. Learning To Live While Americans were stuffing their faces with burgers and hot dogs and watching fireworks, the Italian who filmed this probably did not know at the time that they were recording one of only two videotaped performances of Under A Glass Moon from 1995 (the other is the Canoe Place Inn show), and the only 1995 video of A Change Of Seasons, the acoustic version of Wait For Sleep, and Learning To Live. The second European leg of the Waking Up The World Tour is notoriously under-recorded, which is unfortunate since LaBrie's voice was starting to recover, and there were some curiosities in the setlist at this time (such as the aforementioned acoustic version of Wait For Sle

Dream Theater - The Change Of A Change Of Seasons

This is one of the rarest DT bootlegs I have, as it was limited to just 50 physical copies. On it, you get: 1. The Chris Cintron audition of A Change Of Seasons. The back cover art says “A Change Of Seasons ’89” which is partially true. The instrumental parts were laid down in 1989, but Cintron would have performed vocals in 1990. 2. The 1993 Limelight performance of A Change Of Seasons. One of only two times ACOS got played live with “the two Kevins” Moore & LaBrie (other was Bonn, Germany 1993). 3. The “Mercy Fuck” performance of A Change Of Seasons from Old Bridge, NJ June 1995. This one sounds nice in contrast to the very noisy version of this show in circulation. 4. The sample from Dead Poet’s Society about Carpe Diem meaning “seize the day.” 5. “A Change Of Simpsons.” This is a Scenes era performance of this song which has a piece of The Simpson’s Theme included. Did they do this on Live Scenes From New York? I can't remember, and have not the energy
