Someone from the DT camp please read the following.

Play Lost Not forgotten Live

bump

KevShmev

Cranked this up to the max on a drive earlier, and while not one of my favorites from ADTOE, it is still pretty damn great.  Definitely worthy of a bump. :tup :tup

King Postwhore

The chorus makes me step on the gas when I'm listening to it in my car. :lol

Dublagent66

I've grown to like this song a lot more than I did at first.

*appreciates*

Ryzee

Not a huge fan of this tune, sorry guys.  Probably my least favorite on the record.  The 2nd verse and guitar & key solos are pretty cool though.

Tunnel Vision

I've loved LNF from the first listen. I think MM plays really well on this song but my favorite part has to be the "riffage" section from 8:05 to 8:20.

jcmistat

Definitely needs to be played live. I haven't listened to it in a while but it hasn't lost its value.

This song is just perfect in every way. Top 3 on ADTOE.
There are no words to describe how wrong I was.

skydivingninja

There are some cool parts, but overall the song's pretty boring to me.  When I listen to ADTOE and skip this song the album immediately becomes better for me.

serrano

Not my favourite song on ADTOE but still a great one, i think it would be killer live, lots of energy, powaah...

Was that you I passed, I do the same thing. I thought for sure they would have broken this song out for the Euro portion of the tour. I can't believe they have blow it off. Maybe it's just too difficult otherwise why would they not break it out. This would be explosive on stage

DarkLord_Lalinc

Or maybe they're playing it until the next tour, just like they did with Prophets of War.

IdoSC

It's quite a great tune and it's gonna kick ass live. Can't wait.

DebraKadabra

*major appreciation* :metal

I think LNF is in my Top 3 favorites from ADToE.  It's also weird that the instrumental version kicks 10 times more ass than the original, but really cool at the same time.

This is a cool song. The unison at the beginning is amazing.  :hefdaddy

Love this song but it doesn't look like it is going to make the live setlist this tour. This and TITL should be in the setlist so that they can make it in the DVD if there is one. Hopefully it will be added on the next tour.

Hello it's an appreciation threat. Why stop to type that. Next time skip the thread as well.

This song  is awesome, it has mad riffs, nice melody, killer drumming, unique sounding solo, and solid  singing.

Why have they not played this yet!  :sad:

KevShmev

My guess is that they are probably enjoying playing the other songs from the new album so much that they simply haven't worked Lost Not Forgotten and This Is the Life into the sets yet, and they wanna leave enough room to play older stuff, so they simply haven't worked them in yet, but it is probably only a matter of time.

I see what you did there...  :tup

I would have to say that it is my favorite track off the new album. It is the quickest 10 minutes of Dream Theater I have ever listened to it and that's a good thing. I also really love the JR solo in the song.

LNF230.com

It is probably obvious that I love this song.....especially about the 2:30 mark.

The first time I heard it was driving.  I said the following outloud....to myself.
Piano into: "cool"
First sign of heaviness: "awesome"
Crazy speedy stuff: "wow"
The crunch that changed the world: "holy $#()*#"

Every album there is always one little thing that makes me a fan for life....the 2:30 mark in this song was the part on this album.

wasteland

Well, I guess that the song has somewhat climbed the mountain for me. It's still not a top 20 song, but I particularly appreciated the way it sounded live. I indeed expected it to slay on stage, and many good bootlegs from the 2nd North American Leg confirmed my theories :)

Let's say that it should not be put on the shelves forever.  :)

I don't care, I :heart Lost Not Forgotten.  It was love at first listen too. :)

I can't say the same. It was my least favourite song on the album for months, mainly because I felt too much the similarity to UAGM. I didn't really begin appreciating it until June, when I first heard a live performance.

OMG, hearing it live (three times, natch) was amazing. :hefdaddy

I am still happier I got Outcry in my one and only DT show. How was the crowd partecipation during the song? Was the audience as much into it as the band was? :)

DebraKadabra

Um... I was. :lol

Let me clarify - I'm sure you're already aware that US audiences differ VASTLY from any other audiences, so... when I'm at shows, I climb into my own little world with the music washing over me so I really don't pay a whole lot of attention to other people (besides the ones I'm with, if I'm going to a show accompanied).

Well, if it's an hommage it's cool, but if it's their attempt to secretly re-write the past, not so much.

On a serious note, I absolutely f*ing love this song (major chords, yay!). The UAGM reference is there (claiming otherwise is ridiculous) and I love that, too. I just wish they had paid hommage to Surrounded on ADTOE.  :facepalm:  :angry:

Rattlehead

I wish DT had played LNF when I saw them, it's one of the only songs on ADToE that I would still listen to at this point.

Despite the obvious Under a Glass Moon mirroring and bad lyrics, I think it's a pretty rocking song and it's one of the songs (from the new album) I'm most looking forward to on the DVD.

I'm under the impression that ALL of the ADTOE songs will make it to the DVD and/or CD in some shape or form. At least, I really truly hope so.

Well to be safe, I am just going to assume that only the songs from those 2 shows will make it on the DVD, which I hope I'm incorrect about.

Was LNF played at either of those two shows?
