Dream Theater has the right idea on this

[squeemu]

Dang, I would not last at a concert for more than 90 minutes. It doesn't matter how much I like a band, I am always glad when they keep the show short. I thought symphony x's last concert in LA had the perfect length...and they even managed to play the Odyssey!

They should play in my backyard, I live in Jersey, I deserve it

I think they should HEADLINE venues like the Oakdale, in MY backyard (Wallingford, CT), or even like the Beacon Theater, and 3-5k seated arenas. That and a 2:15-2:30 setlist, I dont think im being unreasonable, considering DT is doing 2.5-3hour sets every night, playing completely diff material each night.

Personally I'd hate to see SymX play the beacon again. I loathe seated venues, they're horrible for metal. Theres plenty of very large GA venues for them to play should they get big enough to headline such places.

Just a thing. I'd like to hear a great piano (yes, piano) solo connecting both Accolades... like, on the First one, Russell says the final line, while MJR plays the notes on guitar, and M. Pinnella mirroring him... then, MP just goes away with his own solo, rescuing themes from both songs, mixing them with classical pieces, and then... bam! Accolade II!
