Makes me wonder what could have happened if he had decided to change his surname to Rules instead of Rudess.

So yeah, that site. Isn't kinda working.

hefdaddy42 · November 12, 2011, 05:23:12 PM

I'm on the site and see people chatting but no video or audio is being broadcast. I thought it started at 8?

Blazinarps · November 12, 2011, 05:24:38 PM

I guess he is running late

IT'll be awesome when it starts I'm sure.

Show should be starting in 10 minutes, Eren says.

hefdaddy42 · November 12, 2011, 05:26:06 PM

Cool.

Eren · November 12, 2011, 05:26:35 PM

It hasn't started yet

Blazinarps · November 12, 2011, 05:28:28 PM

Sweet!

hefdaddy42 · November 12, 2011, 05:39:22 PM

I've still got nothin' online.

Mebert78 · November 12, 2011, 05:39:53 PM

Mrjazzguitar and I are in the second and third seat. Eren and the dude from project rnl are here. Its gonna start right now.

hefdaddy42 · November 12, 2011, 05:51:26 PM

Still nothin'. Well, something came on for a second, but it wasn't Jordan.

Algo Fonix · November 12, 2011, 05:53:19 PM

He's playin' up something nice now.

blackngold29 · November 12, 2011, 05:57:34 PM

Playing a version of his track from the SW album... incredible!

hefdaddy42 · November 12, 2011, 06:04:02 PM

Got it!

Blazinarps · November 12, 2011, 06:58:17 PM

Jordan, Y U cut off The Spirit Carries On?

BRGM · November 12, 2011, 06:58:46 PM

Well that was pretty nice! I really enjoyed Through Her Eyes and the Steve Jobbs song.

Mebert78 · November 12, 2011, 10:19:07 PM

On my way home. He played quite a different set for the second show. He played goodnight kiss, losing time, and state of grace from liquid tension experiment. He also played imagine. And of course he took the time to have a chat with every fan that wanted to talk to him afterward. Great job by jordan.

Weird crowd lined up. No one looks like a dt fan. Its alot of 40 n 50 year olds that seem like they are out for a night of jazz. There one dude with a dt hoodie, but that's it.

That was me with the hoodie.

Scrub206 · November 13, 2011, 12:32:21 AM

Wow, what an amazing evening that was. I only stayed for the first show, but we had the first row on the ledge in the middle. it was an excellent veiw!

Also i FINALLY met mrjazzguitar aka Mike Rood after talking to him / talks about jamming with him about 5 years ago

Also i got to meet Mebert78

The list of DTF members just keeps on growing

all in all it was an amazing show with a lot of good improv and written pieces by Mr. Jordan Rudess

Also there was a little treat afterwards. i had no idea JR would stay and sign things. so i picked up a copy of his "Notes on a Dream" (an album i already had but i couldnt miss getting it signed xD) and had him sign it and got a picture!!

Mebert78 · November 13, 2011, 01:51:41 AM

Wow, awesome pic!!! Nice meeting you too. Kinda funny that we were wearing the same DT hoodie.

Scrub206 · November 13, 2011, 10:28:34 AM

ahaha yeah we were.

nattmorker · November 14, 2011, 11:54:12 AM

I think he also played "Hollow Years" in the first set. And he opened both shows with a piece he said was completely improvised.

Really? You're probably right. Someone else also said they didn't hear "Hollow Years," but for some reason I really thought he played it.

Scrub206 · November 14, 2011, 03:19:02 PM

he played an improv. version of State of grace tho, the first set
