Appreciation for the segue at the beginning of Score

You know, the whole In the Name of God / The Root of All Evil mix. Does anybody else find that opening absolutely chilling in every way?

ReaperKK · February 27, 2011, 02:10:50 PM

I thought it was cool when I was there. I forget what the hell was that loud buzzing though during the intro tape.

I love this. I thought it was an amazing way to start the concert.

Best opener I've ever seen live.

I definitely like it, and it also provides a bit of continuity with their previous live album ending with "In The Name Of God".

Agreed, it's an incredible way to start the concert, and obviously got the crowd pretty excited.

I was just watching Score again last night funnily enough. Love the intro. Definitely chilling in a certain way.

tri.ad · February 28, 2011, 03:22:27 AM

It really makes for a great opening.

CrimsonSunrise · March 04, 2011, 04:56:08 PM

It was awesome... when I saw the 2nd show I actually was looking forward to seeing it a 2nd time!

Chino · March 04, 2011, 04:59:07 PM

It's gets your heart pumping

cyberdrummer · March 04, 2011, 05:01:15 PM

Combined with the A Clockwork Orange intro tape, it was an incredible opening to the show.

MajorMatt · March 04, 2011, 05:04:43 PM

Yeah its an awesome opener, just been watching Score actually!

I forget what the hell was that loud buzzing though during the intro tape.

As the original intro to troae sounds very very similar to the intro to Pink Floyd's Welcome to the Machine, DT added the buzzer to the live version as an even bigger hint to the origins of this section and as a nod to this influence.

yeshaberto · March 04, 2011, 05:05:15 PM

chilling is a perfect word for it

TL · March 04, 2011, 05:06:43 PM

It's a fantastic intro. Really sets the mood.

SystematicThought · March 04, 2011, 08:36:57 PM

I guess I have no idea what you guys are talking about...

Also, what was the Clockwork Orange intro tape... any place I can watch it?

-Nevermind, I found it... Very cool!!

I see, strangely I don't remember hearing it when I was there, I only noticed it when I watched the DVD.

Great segue and way to open the concert. The ItnoG outro, the Welcome to the Machine-esque sounds, and the intro to TRoaE up until when the lights hit and the main riff kicks in. The band looks looked totally amped and ready to go (well, with the exception of JM

). It is shot really well too.

Come to think of it, the Budokan DVD has a great opening as well.
