This was the best rock/metal concert I've ever been to. It was worth traveling from Chicago to Tilburg for this, and if they do The Source album I'll definitely try to do it again! Hopefully they do a different album in between though for the sake of my wallet!

[@erwinamesz7642]

You are welcome (again) in The Netherlands!!

[@normora5857]

They did 5 shows in just one week-end! This was from the last show and still top notch quality. I was there and will certainly go to the next one. Epic experience.

[@stevenmackintosh8160]

The band practices for a year for these shows while the singers only have 10 hours! Arjen cant get them all together for longer than one long weekend. Its a miracle he can get them all at all.

[@guidobouman2819]

in that year local singers do the singing act. When the real singers arrive they are accompanied by the local singers to learn their parts in just that weekend

[@tarmotyyri6733]

Thanks for entertaining me with one of the best progressive metal composers with his band & ensamble of amazing vocalists.

This was performed in September 2023 at the 013 arena in Tilburg, Netherlands. Arjen announced one show, which sold out the 3000 tickets in no time, so they had to add 4 more shows and all sold out. They could have probably sold out more, but it was just not possible with the logistics the schedules of all the artists and the availability of the venue. Arjen is very easy to spot, he is the one taller than everyone else at 6 feet 7.

[@mandje2002]

not entirely correct, the plan started with 3 concerts (+ 1 dress rehearsal on Thursday) in one weekend (Fri-Sun) only when ticket sales started the 4 were sold out within 5 minutes! In order not to disappoint the fans, an extra was scheduled for Sunday afternoon, which was also gone within 3 minutes and a 5th show (Saturday afternoon) was added (sale of this show was 2 weeks later).

Ayreon never disappoints ❤️🤘🎸🎻🦘

[@jeffkerr4861]

Glad they are back!! I'm loving my first view of this. You are the first I've seen, good job you two. I can feel the energy in that room. So much talent. I would love to see this live. I'd be the oldest in the room. Do you think they would let me in. I would promise not to pass gas. Good show as always, thanks for all your efforts.🤪

[@BERSERKR212]

Arjen makes his music for anyone young, old and in between and they all are more than welcome!!

@@BERSERKR212 never too old! Saw some kids (with earmuffs) who were totally into it with their parents and people 60 - 70. That is what good music does

✈️ ready for take off. Tray table well none but dishes done if that counts. That was quite the flight they took us on. It’s was awesome. Nice to see another one of there videos. Nice to hear and see all you do. All the great reactions and commentary. Take care. Good night and sleep for all. 🤞. 🙏🙏🙏

[@kentk2215]

"01011001" is the binary representation of the ASCII value of the letter Y, and the name of their seventh album, released in January 2008. This five-part song was the fifth track on first disc. The Sixth Extinction was the final track on that album second disc. Floor sang on the studio version. I think it just came out less than a day ago actually. No small feat, indeed, like Sasquatch. Haircut looks great, Wolfman! (Still considering subscribing)

Was there and had a life.. changing.. experience🤩🤩

[@marlonvanwijland1428]

Probably takes up to 2 years minimum of planning, and the band an backing singers practice alot. Rest just comes the week before, and that really shows why they are the best of the best. Money wise, they get paid and expences, but most really like to work with Arjen and these shows are one of a kind, so some might even do them for free just to be part of it. There are no Ego's and that shows, that's why he has such a loyal fan base...

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

I can’t tell you how glad we are to have discovered them!

[@jws6181]

great so good, Ayreon live I am hoping they put all the songs on a Dvd/Cd/blu-ray box....thanks guys love it❤

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

That would be awesome!

[@clivematthews5296]

Love to hear Sir Joost van den Broek on keyboards. He has done so much since being in After Forever with Floor. Now they are Dutch superstars. As of course is Arjen Lucassen although sadly not in North America.

[@hermanvanwissen2660]

According to your playlist you did not yet reacted to Amazing Flight live (electric castle) with Thijs van Leer and Age of Shadows live with another surprise.

[@mportal1753]

Ayreon ( arjen lucassen) has a great network. People hardley cant say no to him.

[@evergreendorneymahoning5435]

This is pure talent way off the scale!!

[@diedzjeeoudshoorn7726]

I think 25 main singers on stage... This show was a life changer experiencing 😮life. Watching this makes me so happy. It poors tears out of my eyes out of emotion. The tall guy is Arjen. Remember him. He is The God of Prog. But he is humble and pleasant. That's why he is able to put this amazing talents together. Everyone is honoured to sing for him and thoroughly enjoys each others company and talent. This is a miniature version of the perfect world we should have. And Joost..... Yes Joost....never underestimate the importance of Joost. He is a God by himself.

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

Agreed!

Arjan Lucassen was in de long orange coat

[@mandje2002]

Red !!!!

[@GeertDeLange-k5x]

Ayeron with the red shawl is the mastermind, the composer, the genius. This is a project from him, its not a band

[@SueSueandthewolfman]

Yes I was trying to explain this to Wolfman

[@gunterreihnhol6507]

👏👏👏👏

[@tommiddlebrook6967]

Arjen is the guy in the long red coat who comes out at the very end. I can't figure out who the guy with the long curly hair and glasses is. Also who is the female vocalist who comes in and wails after Hansi at the end? She is amazing.

[@doktermobiel]

Daniel Gildenlow is the one curly guy with the glasses. And the girl is Brittany Slayes who replaced the pregnant Floor Jansen.

[@Mars-is4un]

Simone looks so tiny standing next to Arjen

[@GeertDeLange-k5x]
