ferociousdanny Two epic 15 min songs... is that what they were playing? -.- it went right over my head. I'll take Black Rose Immortal or A Change of Seasons as epics over the former two any day.
-
bobandstuff luv u... every band was pretty boring 'cept btbm ***(no sarcasm). fuck seeing the same show as July.
-
Janketastic Most definitely to each his own. I mean, it's cool if people weren't into them, you like what you like. But if you actually listen to the music there's no way you can deny that BTBAM aren't any more progressive than Dream Theater. They just more metal and have harsh vocals. Why do you think Portnoy picked this band to be a part of a tour called Progressive Nation?
-
Janketastic
Yeah, all they did was mix hardcore and mellow parts. Nevermind the crazy time signatures or complex and dynamic song structures that bridge a shit-ton of styles in one song. Not to mention some guitar solos that might even bring Sr. Petrucci to his knees. Yeah, in the two epic 15 minute songs they played, all they did was play loud to soft.

KarenX69 Three was AMAZING! These guys completely blew my mind. I purchased 2 of their CD's after the show, and both are great from beginning to end. If you haven't already, you have to check them out: http://www.theband3.com/home.html

Are you people seriously trying to tell me BTBAM isn't progressive metal?
-
IncaWazoo I caught the last song of Three, what I heard seemed pretty interesting. Didn't care for BTBAM at all. Thoroughly enjoyed Opeth and agree, I wish they could've played longer. Dream Theater were as always, excellent. The show should have started earlier to allow the headliners more time to play...or cut one BTBAM loose since they seemed like the odd duck.
-
kungfulasers Dream Theater was fucking awesome. Opeth was great too, and I do agree they should've gotten more play time. BTBAM was... interesting, but not my cup of tea. My friend and I walked in on the last song or two Three played. Didn't really care about them.

I found BTBAM's lead singer to sound whiny. He sounded like the Tazmanian Devil. I thoroughly enjoyed all the bands but BTBAM.
-
M0RDGAARD he's referring to BTBAM but as far as hardcore goes they are pretty decent. i do agree that it would be nice if it was progressive metal only though
-
Janketastic
I was unaware that there was a shitty hardcore band playing on this tour.
-
dmulah Next time, Dream Theater: Don't hog the set. We know as well as you do that Opeth deserves more time.
-
Janketastic
It's cool M0rd, yeah that guy was definitley too low in the mix. All 4 bands ruled, it was an amazing show. Opeth was brilliant, the only band I hadn't seen live out of the bunch and now I'll make sure to see them every chance i get. DT played motherfucking BLIND FAITH. Good lord I nearly creamed my jeans.
-

Opeth should have had 1hr 30 mins like Dream Theater and given BTBAM and 3 15min each lol
-
M0RDGAARD
Janketastic, about 3... I didn't think they were that good. They were different and that in itself was good, but I did not like the random percussionist guy. I never heard anything he did except for the cowbell and the occassional cymbal crash. guess he must be doing that because of his infrequent keyboard parts, but any perc. stuff he was doing should have been handled by the drummer if he is co

I just got back. 3 was actually pretty fucking good. Opeth didn't get enough play time, their six songs were: Master's Apprentices, The Baying of the Hounds, In My Time of Need, Wreath, Heir Apparent, The Drapery Falls. One thing I've noticed is Opeth doesn't play their old stuff much and that causes me serious worry. Dream Theater absolutely rocked, the Mario Bros bit kicked ass too!
-
King of Siam First time seeing Opeth, and man, did they rock. Loved the Super Mario bit before DT's encore.
-
berg7x Opeth gave DT a run for their money and they put out a hell of a performance - I wish they were allowed more play time but they are gonna come back (200 hundered times!!) in support of the upcoming album anyhow. The new song heir apparent sounded live so fucking solid. DT showed a good stage performance too. As for the rest, I don't give a flying fuck about them.
-
airencracken 3 Live are fucking awesome.

Rejyna hmmmm... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju_lDjJjPOg and then there's ahhhhhh...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpyXl1E3ohU okay then some very soothing...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UxS6r49OlY and finally we can be sent on our way refreshed after some...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HuMiUOkqKRQ or some slight repertoire variations on the above expressions of comfort and calm 8-|

Janketastic
M0RDGAARD, have you seen 3 live? I think they;re pretty rad on CD, but they kick some fucking ass on stage.
-
berg7x
2 fucking days to the concert!!
-
M0RDGAARD
going for opeth and Dream Theater btbam is not good and neither is 3
-
joezuu 1st row. Hell yeah!
-
Brujoxcorex Damn I got 15th row. $120... Did you buy two of them?
-
LAKingsFan24 Finally got my fucking tickets 60 bucks... this has to be worth it or I'll be super pissed. Dude, I spent $120 on my tickets. 12th row seats.
-
berg7x
I had a chance to listen to two new opeth songs off the forthcoming album. To be short, in comparison with their previous work, there's a different feel to the songs. there's more heavy and mellow transitons going on across the songs.

til_evighet Coming all the way from Colorado just for Opethhh :]
-
ferociousdanny
Knowing business... Opeth will probably play a track or two off Watershed before they get to the old stuff, if they ever get to it. MAYH & BWP ftw!
-
ferociousdanny
Well, yes my charts indicate I like Opeth just a tad better than Dream Theater. It looks like this is going to be a very Opethy show then... fuck I hope their set is long.
-
morbidop
Opeth!!!! Can't wait for the show, would be best if it was just Opeth; the other bands are shit IMO. Though i do like a few DT songs.
-
zedstuff Check out my charts, I love Dream Theater. I love Opeth. I love BTBAM, and I love 3. Doesn't change the fact that Dream Theater is still the most overrated band in metal.
-
airencracken
3 and Opeth? Hell yes.
-
digitaldraco zed - if you don't like Dream Theater or Opeth, what the heck are you doing here?
-
zedstuff
while DT is without question the most overrated band in metal, LOFL @ Opeth being any better.
-
Kutryer fuck 70$ dollar tickets. this would be so much cheaper and better if it was just opeth and btbam.
-
Janketastic
Between the Buried and Me may be better than Dream Theater on record, but as a live act they are definitely no better or worse. I'm pretty stoked for this show, all bands are excellent. Only one I haven't seen live is Opeth and I'm greatly looking forward to that as I hear Mike is one funny motherfucker.
-
Cindayy DT isnt thaat bad... but opeth should definitely be the ones headlining instead
-
Coivisto Well peanutbutter and jelly suck ass. Opeth is good but Dream Theater is one of the most over rated bands in history! NO! THE most over rated band in history.
-
ferociousdanny
I hate how people hate on LaBrie. Dream Theater and Opeth, the greatest collaboration since peanutbutter and jelly!
-
Necrological Opeth and Between the Buried in me is the real reason I'm going. Dream Theater may be musically talented, but the singer is shit.
-
Brujoxcorex
Nice. 3 Hours of pure goodness
-
Lasers89 Official set lengths: 3 - 30 mins. BTBAM - 30 mins. Opeth - 60 mins. DT - 90 mins. I can't wait.
-
Brujoxcorex
I wonder how long each set will be especially for Opeth and BTBAM.
-
mmiggy This is going to be epic.
-
zedstuff
Thats the kind of shit that happens when I'm not the one creating the events.
-
pauxcide It's actually spelled amphitheatre
-
zedstuff
If there is no fucking pit section for this show, POrtnoy is going to get fucking murdered.
-
Kutryer
FUCK. YES.
