Sea of Lies Symphony X (Santa Ana)

[@ruancarlos2965]

Romeo doesn't get the recognition he deserves

[@MrFreakybeer]

he does not

[@TheYagomestre]

The way Romeo plays it LIVE like it WAS NOTHING. Like, flawless and smooth as it was just throwin' simple notes. It's MARVELOUS. He made it look so damn effortless, most people won't even understand how amazing his skill level is.

[@AlexGuitarock]

I can see how fast he is. Like he got enlightened, ultra Lightning quick speed.

[@Sabbathman1979]

From the greatest album the band ever made.

[@Jakevoss96]

Michael Romeo is such an absolute beast he makes it seem effortless as he's flying all over the fretboard.

[@marcarmengol8585]

Llevo más de 40 años viendo guitarristas y más de 30 tocando. Romeo es el mejor guitarrista de eléctrica con distorsión que he visto en mi vida.

[@juancamilomoralesmoreno2744]

Concuerdo totalmente, no hay otro igual, y lo mejor, es un gran compositor, lo que hace es de alguien que sabe mucho

[@King-Gilamashur2758]

Over twenty years ago I went to see them in new jersey and I arrived to the venue early and got lost. I ended up stumbling with Romeo and Allen and they helped me find my way. Such awesome guys and to me one of the best prog metal band in history.

[@michaelabbott9254]

This makes me wish I could blow my ears out, glad you got to meet them, rock on brother would love to meet my idols

[@jdhill9730]

The finest American Neo-Classical guitarist IMO.

[@marcotoscano4692]

Russel Allen always killing it! Awesome!!!

[@AntMute2077]

Man, Russell's voice is as intense as ever Honestly, this still sounds like their studio album back in '96

[@papapapagie]

I love Romeo more than Malmsteen!!

Jaw Dropping live solo ! wow wow wow Mr Michael Romeo is a fking BEAST

[@alexraos3]

Impresionante como Romeo toca tan perfectamente cada cancion, que calidad de guitarrista, fuera de este mundo, uno de los guitarristas mas infravalorados, para mi de los mejores 5 de neoclásico y prog.

[@nicocortes5145]

3:10 the bass player is literally casting spells hell yeah 💀💀💀

[@graphicalsolutions1899]

They play the hits. I love the Iconoclast album. They have a reputation of not bringing out new music for year and years. I think they should create a new album and bring it out. Symphony X fans will go nuts

[@AlexGuitarock]

What a ROCK! He's flying on that fretboard.

[@SkylineBilip]

Lepond has such a back posture.. i love him tho, had a chat with him many years ago, lovely man

[@ritzsoloz6110]

Amazing!!!

[@Noynaccc]

He did the solo sooo much better than what i saw on a video from like 7 years ago. I heard guitar also messed up or smth. But this redeemed that for sure

[@Imadoyourmom]

Was that this one?: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpnHeYyKq6xmpqssi=3T8JWhsKWkOQu1Z_ I think he said in an interview that he was kinda plastered that day

[@NunoRomeo]

My idol right there.

[@samuelbustamante2046]

I didn't know that the undertaker had a band

[@somebodyMx]

Damn, what a perfect performance. It's like to listen to studio recording. Awesome! (Despite the poor video quality of course, it's not a professional filming after all)

[@AnnWahlquist]

Russel Allen's a freekin beast.....

[@Anomander1]

Even though the sound is not that great on this video, you can still hear how awesome Russel Allen is live as is the rest of the band. Compare that to Dream Theater, where the instrumental part is still good, but James Labrie pales in comparison to Russel!!

[@databloom70]

Russel is more of a soul-singer, and sings in a lower register which is easier to maintain as you age. Even though Labrie isn't near his peak anymore, I admire that he's still getting up there and giving what he has left to the fans.

[@Anomander1]

@@databloom70 I am no expert, but i am not sure if that is the way it works. If a person doesn't need to strain too much to sing, he/she will have it easier in the long run. Independent of how high a singing voice is. It seems to me that Russel Allen is less stressed when singing and therefore sound better still. Just my 2 cents.

[@databloom70]

@@Anomander1 Stress is a factor but it's known that the higher registers become less available as the person ages. Plenty of examples of thar that out there.

[@petew-berg7791]

Yeah, but Labrie is just painful to listen to live…. Has been for more than a decade…

[@johnpilkenton2247]

Romeo is the best guitar player on the planet.

[@Yiannis2112]

They were never in the same league to begin with

[@MAGAMAN]

@@zedddddful Labrie is the anchor that has sunk Dream Theater. He wither should have quit or been fired when he lost his ability to sing.

[@KillswitchEngage2010]

~First Was The Sound,. And Then Came The Look, So Now He Don't Just Sound Like Malmsteen, He Got The Lk

[@kevin1244]

while I cannot find whether Michael had formal training in guitar playing and techniques, his fret board hand position and technique is "proper" in the sense of classical guitar techniques. Not that matters, as long as one plays beautiful music, just an observation. (Django Reinhardt played with two fingers on the fret board and played beautifully)

[@ronaldscartozzi3360]

Ps You peal the skin off of what metal is about

Believe me romeo much better than yngwie, you can see yngwie on live play like sh*t even he forgot how to play his own solo😂
