This was Jordan Rudess' first gig with Dream Theater since officially becoming a member of the band. Right between the end of the recording and the release of SFaM, they decided to play at this Korean Festival. As the story goes, a Tropical Storm was raging on the
region during the festival but just when DT's time was up to go onstage, the rain let up, the skies cleared, just in time to let them play.

There is no material from SFaM on this as it was not released yet. It is still very interesting to hear Jordan experimenting with these new songs he had to learn. James' voice was not at its best unfortunately.

The sound is VERY good. This is an A recording. A word of warning, there are some clicks here and there on my copy, especially on Hollow Years for about 15 seconds. If you have a better copy, contact me.
