Dream Theater "Eve" - The Limelight, NYC, March 4, 1993

Includes live VIDEO of the one and only time "Eve" was performed live in concert with audio samples. These samples were from a reading of James Joyce's book, "Dedalus - Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man." *The first 1:30 of video is missing and includes audio/images from the Official Dream Theater Bootleg, "New York City 3/4/93", on Ytsejam Records.

"Chapter One. Once upon a time and a very good time it was there was a moo cow coming down along the road..." "So He came Himself in weakness not in power and He sent thee, a creature in His stead, with a creature's comeliness and lustre suited to our state. And now thy very face and form, dear Mother, speak to us of the Eternal; not like earthly beauty, dangerous to look upon, but like the morning star which is thy emblem, bright and musical, breathing purity, telling of heaven and infusing peace. O harbinger of day! O light of the pilgrim! Lead us still as thou hast led. In the dark night, across the bleak wilderness guide us on to our Lord Jesus, guide us home." "'Tower of Ivory', they used to say, 'House of Gold!' How could a woman be a tower of ivory or a house of gold?"

HAHA!! I thought same thing too! My aplogies about video but the 1st minute and a half were missing video so I added images from the Official Ytsejam bootleg.. Still, a gem!!

@sknowbird Wow, that's even better then !! Firstly, I thought that the first 1.5 min images were added by the guy that made the original video bootleg 18 years ago... But then alas..I realised that in VHS ( unless in a very professional level-studio) it was not possible to add images !! Neither Images nor Words..even for a bootleg for an album called Images and Words. :D hahha so thanks a lot for that images addition (J.Joyce etc.) as well ! I added this to one of my ~300 favourites as well.

Amazing performance by DT !!! I have never seen that track, except in bootlegs. Thx for sharing !! I bet this was extra rare.
