Could have been worse KW, I've actually suffered Dream Theater / Queensryche / Fates Warning at the Garden State Arts Center in '03.

My ears were bleeding by the end of Fates Warning and I had yet to suffer Queensryche and Dream Theater. Queensryche but at least DT actually played one or two songs below stone crushing volume. It was OK to watch DT play but the openers were just not my cup-o-tea (or pint-o-Guinness which would be more appropriate for me). How do you spell UNDERWHELMED? I did give it a go though a few times. Saw them first open for ELP and Deep Purple Again, with the aforementioned tour-de-ear-bleed-times-three, once for the 6ºs tour (unfortunately, they played little of the 6ºs) and then again as an opener for YES on the 2nd leg of the US 35th tour. They did an excellent rendition of Machine Messiah. Can't say there was much more that impressed me though.

Thanks VAX......I don't know what it is about DT that rattles my cage so much.

Actually I do.....it's that bloody singer!!!!!!

Now....back to nursing my hangover!!!!

When he's not trying to do the "heavy metal" thing, he's tolerable. He was the best of the vocalists at the ear-bleedX3 gig. The shaved head singer from Queensryche made LaFrenceCheese sound fantastic.
