why do you people care soooo much about mike growling, its not like it ruined the song. Why cant you people just shut up and listen to the song its still awesome...
@DamnationDamien Hum.... I think people who say that must hear him live... I've done.... His growl ability was perfect... Dream Theater shuld have done.. but now Mike leaved the band...
@Asc3ndans3y Omfg yeahhh!! I fucking love this man. I'm looping the video from where he goes into stage and he leaves. It's wonderful to discover how this man can go over his style.
You must have pretty amazing parents... although they're not as amazing for not taking you, unless you're not into this sort of thing or you're too young...
Was that Mikael Akerfeldt? He just showed up outta nowhere at a Dream Theater concert? If I was there, I'd be goin nuts just for Dream Theater, but if Mike walked out on stage... I think I'd have a heart attack, especially if I was that close. I've seen Opeth (the greatest band in the WORLD) twice already and cant wait to see them in new york in april. great video, and yeah, you got REALY lucky to catch this on film! lml
I was so mad prog nation in North America this year didn't have opeth. VIP tix? lucky you, that's awesome. that's more than awesome. there's not even a word good enough to describe that VIP package. if only it wasn't $150........ I'm just glad to be seeing them at all on that tour. I'm so psyched for that show! BLACKWATER PARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Opeth only toured with DT on the European leg. Only people who check the DT website too much would know who were playing in a leg not native to them... actually, I think you'd have to just be a casual fan to not know that Opeth played on the European leg, I know which bands played the American and Australasian legs :P
I do know. I'm more an Opeth fan than Dream Theater fan. I didn't know when the vid was from since I didn't look at the date before I commented. Cool vid anyway. It's a shame there's dicks like olliemedsy out there though to ruin everyone's fun.
What's ur problem dude? PMS? All I thought about when I saw this vid was that it looked like Mikael on stage at a Dream Theater Concert. I didnt look at the date. I DO know they just went on another Prog Nat tour. DREAM THEATER headlines that. Opeth plays w/ them. So did Bigelf, Unexpect, and some other bands I don't remember. I live in NORTH AMERICA NOT EUROPE! I didn't go on the first prog nation tour. I'm not gonna fly to europe for a concert, so why would I care? and whats the dif if I dont?
yo yo i was like JUST to the left of u!! the loud guy haha :P
anyways like i love this song and every single fuckin time i hear this section of the song i just wish it was like that!! when mikael came out....WOW pure adrinaline rush!!!! sounds AMAZING!!!!!! n fuckin great concert!!!
i remember i was waiting for Portnoy to sing this verse is well...surprise xD Mikael has shown on the stage and i had this feeling that i will just fucking explode xD
James never sounded better... oh, wait!? LOL! Awesome. This is what they needed on the album, cause the studio version is a total joke. A true LOL moment... followed by a sigh of disappointment.
it would because opeths set was amazing except there wasnt enough energy filled songs ...but defo awesome to hear some old stuff being played...but seriously no grand conjuration :( !!
That part sounds SICK with MA's vocals!! That part sounds so much more BRUTAL with Mikael!! I hereby mark this as the most metal moment in all of DT history. This better have been recorded for a bootleg SOMEWHERE by SOMEBODY!!
LOL well technically this is a bootleg, but I know what you mean. I doubt it's been recorded as an official bootleg or anything because it's Prog Nation, not a solely Dream Theater concert. Oh well, fingers crossed!
EPIC!

When they were in Oslo i liked opeth's setlist ALOT more than DT's, but that's because im not all that into the cheesyness of DT's new album.
Parts of the songs sound like Eurovision song contest bands from poland or something.
Opeth never fails though.
