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.

Petrucci is absolutely great, but comments like this depict deep ignorance, when there are people like Dann Huff, Michael Landau, Paul Gilbert, Guthrie Govan, and many more...

to the people that were lucky enough to be at this show. bless. you. you have something to remember and something to tell your kids.

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..

@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

The world needs more musicians, with overt talent and chops to prove it.

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.

Great music of the great musicians. Awesome !.

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.

Amazing musicianship!
