Free Music Notes for Chaos in Motion, 2007-2008
Free Music Review: Great one! Ignore the stupid comments
Hit: 5 Stars
This Double DVD, Triple CD is Great... I have every Dream Theater CD/DVD ever released... So will you guys SHUT THE FU???!! You make this DVD sound like garbage!! I read your comments before watching it, and I really thought it was as bad as Cliff 'em All or something (Cliff 'em All was ok for it's time)... In chaos in motion, you can see & hear everything the F CLEAR AS CRYSTAL!!! So what the F are you little B*****s whining about?? Your reviews SCARED me! I thought my DVD was a total waste of money or something (of course I was gonna keep it for the record anyways:P)... Sure it's no Budokan or Score... But hell it's still F'IN' AWESOME! You can still see every solo and every good part zoomed & more!!! It's pretty AWESOME! Specially if you've been @ a show during that tour, even MORE SO...
I do agree with those who say it was more for the fans than more new listeners... But S**t son don't make it sound worse than it really is.. It's great!I would still recommend 1. Score, 2. Budokan to new listeners but fans should definitely get this one... This is what this one aims at; the fanbase.. Hell on one hand you complain that they're goin' "commercial" and now that they made a fan-special, you complain it'a only for die-hard fans, WTF is wrong with you people??? LMAO
A special note to the 60-year-old who said they shouldn't use F on stage: Kindly go to some Drag Queen Bar and ask them to be gentle with you.. WAKE UP GRAMPS, THIS IS METAL!!! You're not old school, you're old period! Um 5 words: Listen to Elton John F*g!! :D
Background: Have all Dream Theater CDs/DVDs ever realeased and can play 1/2 of all Dream Theater's songs on the guitar (all my favourite ones).
P.s. Sorry for being rude, but most of you guys shouldn't bother commenting... You don't even understand what it's all about.
Free Music Review: just received!

I just watched the first 10 minutes from the beginning and then skipped around a bit. While the video is not as crisp and smooth as Budokan, the cameras actually do a decent job of adding to the flavor of the performance. I won't spoil to much here but make sure you check out Dark Eternal Night. The break down solo in the middle is f#*king INCREDIBLE. I think John Petrucci's nightmare of "playing so fast it turns into one note" has finally come true!! And OMG!, Petrucci looks like Jesus Christ on steroids!! From what I have seen of the DVD, it is worth the clams even if you cannot get the deluxe version which I did receive today (October 4th) with a few problems. Amazon always sends a confirmation email when they ship an item. However this one time they did not. So after reading the first review here I started to become concerned. I contacted Amazon and they assured me that it had shipped on September 30th. And I did receive it today, in a cheap padded envelope. WTF ever happened to Amazon using sturdy boxes? I then noticed that I was charged for shipping cost when I always choose Free Super Saver whatever. So I then spent 20 minutes on the phone getting a refund for shipping. I'm not complaining only making a point that Amazon seems to be getting a little sketchy. Also, I ordered my copy on September 5 so I'm not sure why I would receive one when the other guy ordered his in August and did not get one. Anyway, I'll save the review on the audio quality of the concert for another time but the performance is Dream Theater worthy! ;)Free Music Review: For fans' eyes only.

First of all, this rating is from a die-hard fan, If you think DT is just ok, just another prog-metal band, it's 3 stars or even less. The production of the live part of this collection is nowhere nearly as good as their previous dvds. Imagine "once in a live time", as MP mentioned beforehand or three bonus tracks on "Score".
The behind their tour documentary on disc 2 is actually, to me the main dvd. The live is the bonus. The documentary focusing on each and every member(not just MP and JP, and JM talks more than ever!!) and particularly the crew behind their gigs is truly interesting to watch. But none of these can be interesting enough to I-think-DT-is-just-ok fans.
The CDs are great, to me the best ever since I liked the songs on "Systematic chaos" and others included here. If they'd released the CDs alone, I would've recommended them to even those softcore DT fans...
They could have put couple of bonus tracks just for the CDs though for the extra money we paid.
My only concern is that we're probably not going to see these songs here on their future live dvd with a decent production for a long time since they don't like things to be redundant.

This is yet another great collection of live songs from one of the most tallented bands around. Many who have reviewed this product have complained that it isn't one complete concert, but rather several concerts strung together. That didn't bother me any, though. This showcases many songs not seen or heard in a live recording before from the Systematic Chaos album. My only real complaint is that James LaBrie's vocals have way too much treble, and at times can hurt your ears. The supplimental material is really good, and shows how Dream Theater has the freedom to tour on their schedule and still spend pleanty of time with their families. I can't wait until their next album and tour. These guys constantly bring us something new with each album, and their live performances keep getting better and better!Free Music Review: The Pinnacle Of Prog

Dream Theater reside at the top of the heap of progressive metal bands and there is no real close second. The musicianship and virtuosity that these five performers deliver is unmatched by anyone else. Dream Theater is not everyone's cup of tea as they do not deliver the commercial schlock that one typically gets on radio ad nauseum. This latest DVD offering is a compilation of performances from their last extensive tour. I feel it very much captures a more raw version of Dream Theater in concert compared to the more polished SCORE DVD of a few years ago. It still blow the socks off nearly anything else out there and you owe it to yourself to check it out. These boys simply never disappoint.
