Well since I couldn't make up my mind about wether buying or not Alive 2 I just decided on d/l it first and sample it...
Well, I'm officially shocked... Did Joey always sound this "deep and low" live???
Jeez, at times it sounded way too much like John... but for the high pitched screams of course...
All in all I was kind of disapointed because I expected Joey to give a much more solid vocal performance (based on the comments in this and other boards) and though he certainly can hit some higher notes than John, they nowhere as high as I'd have hoped and nowhere near as many as I was expecting... It seemed to me as he did "lost it" a bit... which is to be expected of course but hey, I have rarely heard Joey's voice live so it surprised me.
However I must say that the leads from Danny were pretty good and gave the songs a really nice vibe to them. And there were some nice different songs for a change like Medusa and In my world...
Sadly I'm still undecided wether to buy it or not because as nice as it is, I actually prefered MOMD (John works the crowd way better... or at least it sounds so) and both set-lists are incredibly similar... So I guess it'll all go down on the price...
Couple of questions though: How's the DVD packaged? Is it a regular DVD box (long box) or is it a CD case? Are both CD and DVD sold together like MOMD? I hope they are...
That's it.
