Notes interviews Arjen Lucassen from Ayreon

[@ArjenALucassen]

Great job, I enjoyed that! :-)

[@Metalton95]

Hey Arjen! In regards to the upcoming Ayreon concerts, does The Universal Migrator Pt 1 and 2 count as one cohesive album, or will it be a minimum of 2 songs from both Dream Sequencer and Flight of the Migrator? I have my fingers crossed for My House on Mars and Dawn of a Million Souls (but I know the latter will be played ;)

[@ArjenALucassen]

The Universal Migrator Pt 1 and 2 count as one album. I know... too many albums and tracks to choose from, it was agony!

[@PowerrayX]

great interview !!! tot in Breda Arjen ;-)

[@MournfulMystic]

Great interview Arjen! Hi from Australia...2 of my friends from Australia met you at the Theater Equation show :)

[@ArjenALucassen]

Thanks being-being, totally honored that you guys came over all the way from down-under!

[@zachsmith1443]

[@ThanasisTzelas]

[@francarlosnascimento8093]

Great interview! Arjen is THE MAN!!!

[@stevefaylor8899]

That’s so cool you got to interview Arjen! He seems like such a cool guy. Good work!

[@seagullseb7040]

He's so sweet, I wish more artists were like Arjen in the way he interacts with his fans 😄

[@andyparnham7542]

That was a fantastic interview, thanks for making it so entertaining, Arjen is the best! Cheers! :)

[@crabbitwife5463]

Great interview. Best I've seen with Arjen talking about the Source. Well done

[@Ludwikia]

Specifically mentioning Devin and Michael as people he'd want to work with again made my day. I was afraid he'd be on less than ideal terms with Devin. Can't wait for this album. Getting a new headphone amp for it.

[@Dahlius]

That was a great interview! You should do more of these!

[@pprovost]

Congrats on this interview. Amazing. Arjen seems such like a nice guy! Can't wait for the album.

[@fnglert]

Truly one of the most genius yet nicest people in music.

[@TheGameChasers]

I NEED so go to that show..

[@BuddTwang]

Nice interview man. Really enjoyed the short questions in the end :)

[@zoomoo318]

glad to see i wasn't the only one who was critical of the camerawork for the theater equation :)

[@JohnnyRecently]

Great interview! Can't wait till my copy of The Source arrives!

[@oldkingcole4750]

Good for you Notes this so freaking awesome! keep up the good work

[@kingmolbeck]

wooow Congratulations! Arjen is a super nice guy!

[@NotesReviews]

He seriously is! Super down to earth and personable :)

[@nickglaros5966]

Awesome!...Great interview! Big applause.

[@Roland1984]

Great interview, indeed! Can't wait to listen to the new album, it's going to be amazing! :-)

[@MinkyUrungus]

"Librayreon", ha ha!

[@RyanUsesThisChannel]

Great interview!

[@niallodonoghue7733]

Huge congrats to Notes for the interview, and to Arjen for the upcoming album!

[@penandplugs]

That was really good!

[@Immoskyl]

Keep it up man, you're doing good work!

[@wisconsincows1212]

Queen II = greatest album ever.

[@jooree7696]

There are also Dark Side Of The Moon and Sgt.Pepper in the background. Queen II is still a pretty good album

[@BriansManCave]

Great job buddy! You be pro :-)

[@lauscho]

Geddy Lee on an Ayreon record would pretty much break the universe with its awesomeness!

[@montesbackyard3124]

I was just heading to the comments to say this exactly! Beat me to it. :)

[@ibd1977]

I hope Arjen is reading this. To get around the logistics of doing a world tour with your known guests. Could you hire local talent to manage and perform your music in certain regions and perform a full stage show based on The Human Equation or The Theory of Everything? Would love too see a full stage show at the Sydney Opera House or Adelaide's Festival Theatre (my home town).

[@jvsochan5628]

And now you should get Roger Waters and David Gilmour and make a kind of drama alert show

[@jooree7696]

The problem is Roger and Gilmour hate each other Also...there's Nick Mason

[@jooree7696]

🇮🇹 ITALIAN FANS, RISE! 🇮🇹

[@Haarfagr]

Great :)

[@Kymystery]

I'm fairly positive that Casey Crescenzo would do an interview with you. I would love to see that.

[@NotesReviews]

Kymystery that would be amazing! Hopefully I can line something up :)

[@marcelo.bassalo]

Mikael, Bruce and Devin AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWW YEAH

[@antoineperrier8850]

In my point of view The Source is a good album but not the greatest Ayreon, even the first track "the day that the world breaks down" is one of the best tracks of Ayreon. I really like Tommy Karevik and Michael Eriksen singing on it. The first cd is quite impressive but i'm sceptic about the second part and the plot seems to be a little bit too simple. I still love The Theory of everything and I love the The theatre equation, the non SF stories, I must admit that I prefer Ayreon when it is about human choices. I have appreciate a lot The Gentle Storm too. By the way it remains great music and i'm happy to know that the record is charting high in several countries, Ayreon deserves it truly ! Hope that your shows in september will be released quickly ! ;)

[@DanielJolly]

I would love to know what recent/new prog or metal stuff he listens to. Maybe for the next speed round.

[@RyanUsesThisChannel]

About the 3 shows coming up - I REALLY hope they're being filmed. wink wink, nudge nudge.

[@RyanUsesThisChannel]

And you answered the question already. Ha!

[@archlich4489]

Dude!

[@wjadragon6782]

Nice :)

[@balthasarte5649]

Cool

[@failedcreation2]

What is that shirt that the interviewer is wearing?

[@Jiggerjaw]

Discipline is my favorite King Crimson album. I never understood all the attention Court of the Crimson King gets. It's a good album, but can't beat Larks', Red, Lizard...
