I definitely agree with the smoke and mirrors stuff, the stage shold be really foggy, and the bandmenbers will only be seen in the morrors.
During "Try to turn back the years", all the band members should travel back in time in a large time machine, and while they go "Walking dead we are" in the beginning,the apes (not the transformed band members), should wear corpsepaint and just walk around the stage...
During "Sea of Lies" Symphony X will be walking ontop of a large pool filling the entire stage and when Pinella and Romeo does the tapping unison, they will be elevated high up in the air on the steam of an underwater volcano.
That`s it for the details
