Show was pretty good. Steven's voice was great, as it mostly is. Geffen's voice positively surprised me. All in all the songs were rocking a little bit more live, I had a very good time. It has been a while since I saw Steven live on a stage. Next time I hope it will be with Porcupine Tree or with Tim Bowness

Wha? When's the last time you went to a rock concert where you didn't have to stand in order to see the stage, even with chairs in the venue?  blink.gif

Was SW trying to be cool and flashing his fingers like gang signs as usual?

Every Porcupine Tree concert I've been to there were seats.  At time people choose to stand up if they wish, but it's always been that way at venues here.  General Admission style is for crazy metal heads who want to bang their heads up and down and make sure everyone can smell their hair up close.  I'll pass.

Steven actually behaved very good. Simply doing his thing without attracting attention, his hands were mostly just on his guitar. It was Aviv Geffen who was overly emotional, expressive and all. And offcourse, he ended the concert without a shirt, as if it was an '80's rock concert:P

 

Besides Aviv doing his strange thing, I really have to say these guys did very well. Both voices were holding up very nicely and the band (Aviv's band) played very well. It was no Gavin Harrison, but the drummer was pretty rocking.

Sounds cool.  I'm pretty sure they'll come out with a Blu-Ray of the tour and maybe I'll pick it up.

Speaking of Gavin Harrison, he will be doing the tracks for the upcoming 4th OSI album, replacing Mike Portnoy.

I don't get the big deal, why don't people just sit on the floor? They did it at Woodstock too, just get a nice cushion or so to sit on.
