The world needs more musicians, with overt talent and chops to prove it. I would much rather listen to greats like this, than a hired boy band, pass the audition, and you've got a built-in 12 year old girl audience. Jordan Rudess is a passionate master. John Petrucci is wonderful writer, as well as an extremely accomplished guitar. Rhythm section of Portnoy and Levin are world class. This music is a great performance, and you need to be a great performer, to be on that stage. Real people, doing something special that is real. How refreshing is that? Thanks for sharing.

[@tykiedog]

Well said guys! True musicians like this are an antidote to the Simon Cowell influenced SHIT that infests mainstream "music". It's great to hear from likeminded people like you.

Great to see the respect Tony gets, compared to the utter contempt Robert Fripp was shown in the G3 concerts. King Crimson was the true paragon of the heart of Prog Rock.

I was at the final show of this tour at a club in SF. Best show I’ve ever seen. They blew the roof off the place. Ten years later I met Tony Levin after he played a jazz show. I said: “Tony, I saw you in Liquid Tension Experiment in 2008. You guys were amazing.” Tony replied: “That was a lot of notes.”

[@adude394]

These guys are quantizing at a higher level than most of us could ever imagine. Biaxident is one of my favorite songs of all time.

[@danteyoutu]

these days you read everywhere about people disliking Portnoy because he is not "good enough", Petrucci because he has no "feeling", and now also Rudess because he is apparently "annoying". People tend to miss the whole picture here. There are definitely more skillful players than these guys in the world, but not many have been able to write music and put together so many good songs (DT and liquid tension) for so many years. What you get from these guys is not only just difficult-to-play music but also you get their personality in every note and beat. That's something that 99% of "skillful" players can't do, being the reason for them not to become popular in the music industry. Think about it.. DT and Liquid tension play non-commercial music and have achieved an immense popularity for their type of music. That's real musical quality, people that can play whatever they want (20 minute songs) and still be that popular and even successfully tour the world..

[@marshallhuntenburg6556]

Who is more skilled?

[@jamesderekeikeland9048]

Agree, i don't get the sour comments about either of them but in my eyes they are some of the most skilled players in the world with a "nose" for great music and songs. John P just got the award for best prog guitarist 2020 with Steve Rothery second, both great players but very different, Rothery reminds me of D. Gilmour with a "feel" for playing that is on another level but he isnt as fast and technical skilled as John P but his solos hit you right in the tummy(John has great solos as well he he). I guess thats why bands like Marillion, Dream Theater, Haken, Maiden etc have such a big fanbase, their music hits the fans hearts and soul on a level todays popular radio hit music can't, how often do you hear their songs played on mainstream media? But they sell records and collect more fans at live concerts than many of those at the top of hitlists today. I love these bands staying true to their goal of making great music and please their fans rather than please the record companies view of whats quality music. They get to do what they love and you can hear it in the great songs and records

[@iamgreen2964]

99,9% of the people who make these comments haven't achieved 0.01% in their lives and are so frustrated, that their only skill is to make empty criticism based on their own failures

[@DanielVerberne]

I just decided I LOVE Jordan Rudess in my musical life. I'm so happy he joined LTE and then DT. Yes, he's not as rockin' as Derek Sherinian can be and maybe some fans will never get over Kevin Moore's contributions, but to me Jordan really raised the bar musically and when he gets to shine in any group he's in, he's utterly spellbinding. I've been dipping into his solo records which are amazing - "This is Now" is currently my favourite, but so many beautiful moments.

The world needs and hungers for much more of this type of music (call it progressive or whatever!), as the success of King Crimson's latest touring proves. Too much music is standardized today, too much power is given to fucking producers who are not musicians and/or composers themselves, and there is way too much looking at the charts ("what is hip today?" "What sells today?"). I guess this was always true, but perhaps more so today, and listening to this kind of stuff, one longs for a scene where much more artistic license and daring and experimentation is taken.

The way Portnoy "talks" with his drums and orchestrates the Improv Jam #1 is mind blowing!! especially obvious at 40:00 where he controls the soloing frenzy of Petrucci turning the lead over to Rudess!! Amazing stuff!!
