They ended it like the album, or more like the live album really. Russel sang some notes on the outro an octave lower though, I'm sure his voice has changed on him a bit in the last 15 years. By the way thanks a bunch for posting the link!

I didn't see anyone with a nice video camera, just phones. None of the SX songs were filmed by the 2 HD cams they were using for some other bands for the ProgPower DVD, unfortunately. It's quite possible someone in the grandstand seats filmed it, but I didn't see anyone up front.

Big time thanks to the band for coming to ProgPower again. I'm just getting back to the hotel, I'm so glad that I came. A huge thanks for opening the set with Divine Wings! When I heard the opening notes, I thought it was Iconoclast to open, then I heard the chorus opening for DWOT and the...

I'll be there. :kickass: I'll be fighting my way up front for Amaranthe, Epica, and especially Symphony X. There's an interview linked on the PP2012 webpage where Romeo says they are planning something special for that show. One can only hope for something fun like DWOT, Communion, Egypt, or...

I really have to say that the V album is my favorite album of all time of any genre. It's just a special piece of art, start to finish. As I'm sure you guys know, they used to have the story of the album posted on the old website, but I can't find it on the new one for some reason. There are...

Fantastic album, part of the best 4 album stretch in all of metal. Romeo's tone changes a bit here, it is a bit less compressed. The change in tone gives the album a different feel for me. A few of his solos on this album are just brutal.

Yea, he is an absolute beast. His cover of Divine Wings is fantastic. Best SX covers on Youtube. Check these guys out, they did a full band cover of Evolution > Death of Balance.

New site looks great. Couple links to pics aren't coming up for me but that's just a minor detail. Layout looks great. Looking forward to some US tour info.

I like it. Even though V will always be my favorite, I like the new heavy direction. There is not really a song I consider bad. I didn't like Prometheus or Lords of Chaos at first, but they grew on me. Prometheus may even be my favorite now behind the title track. It's still my favorite album...

I looked at buying that shirt a few weeks back actually. The link is broken so I wasn't able to.

Chess for sure. My fellow musicians should check out IV-V-I. Yes, it's a little out there, but can be fun with the right people. Basic theory and harmony knowledge required. http://iv-v-i.com/

I am really, really hoping for Children, Iconoclast, and Prometheus this coming tour. Even though we've already heard End of Innocence I think it's a great live song and I hope we see it again. I'm pumped for the US tour and they haven't even announced a single date. I'll probably blow vacation...

I don't think I will understand why SX fans don't like LUTN. Sometimes it is the first song I listen to when I want to listen to something from IC. The riffs and drumming are some of my favorite on the album, they fit together so well. Yes, the bridge is a bit weak, and the vocals in general are...

It's 26, I really couldn't find an album I could take off the list. SX – V Stands alone, everything else is secondary. Steely Dan – The Royal Scam SX – Divine Wings Jason Becker – Perpetual Burn Outworld - Outworld Shadow Gallery – Room V SX – The Odyssey The Beatles – Rubber...

I've been on a Stella and Spaten obsession for awhile now. Usually Stella (no goblet please.....) I have to be in the mood for Spaten. Also some varieties of Fat Tire sometimes.
