I decided to make a thread for people to talk about such great prog rock bands such as Dream theater, Yes, Genesis? no maybe not genesis... Discuss tour dates and concert experiences.
Dream Theater is the most talented band in the world next to the late great Led Zeppelin I have all there albums even the official bootleg series albums,you have to pick them up. Scenes From A Memory is my favorite and there best album and i have a rare copy(sealed) with the twin towers on fire that was pulled quickly when the twin towers got hit in New York city. its the greatest concept album on the planet next to The Wall Pink Floyd Dream Theater "Live Scenes From New York" Release # 62661-2 Elektra Records Release Date:9/11/2001. This CD features the originally intended artwork with the BURNING NEW YORK SKYLINE. This cover, which was released on 9/11/01, was quickly pulled and new cover art was issued.
I have all thier albums, all John Petruccis solo albums all Jordan Rudess' solo albums (secrets of the muse is awesome) Liquid trio and Liquid tension albums.
I also enjoyed the G3 stuff that Petrucci did with Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. Good stuff there, great show. I'd place Savatage in the Prog Rock catergory, along with Queensryche.
i will list all the progressive bands/albums i have and compare soon King Crimson was probably the first progressive rock band along with Yes
