Title: Happy Dreambill Day!
Post by: Dr. DTVT on March 04, 2010, 10:09:00 AM
I was listening to that album this morning without realizing it was the 17th aniversary of that show.

Highlights of the album:
The unintentional comedy of the crowd not singing the chorus (or at least not loud enough to be picked up by the recorder) during TTT
The version of ACoS that is somewhat different than the released version we are all familiar with
Another Hand played before killing hand
...and it sounds odd now that it's been used as a closer many times, but leading off with Metropolis just doesn't seem right anymore.

It was a show once where a guy named Bill managed to get past security, jump up on the stage, play air instruments next to everybody except JP (I think he was afraid of his bear-face).  The band and audience were so taken that they sang "happy Dream Theater and Bill Day" to him.  He was a member on the forum for a while, but haven't seen him for a while.

It's the 17th anniversary of me seeing them at Avalon in Boston, and if you have the bootleg, you can hear me talking all the way through it!

I can add one:
Nice little mistake in Pull Me Under intro by JP

And is that version of ACOS something demo version?
