This is an amazing, 2 DVD + 3 CD package! Dream Theater began their mammoth A Dramatic Tour Of Events world trek in July 2011 with the final leg in South America taking place in August 2012. It was here at the Luna Park arena in Buenos Aires, Argentina that they decided to film the two nights that go to make up this DVD release. It was Dream Theater s first tour with new drummer Mike Mangini and all the tracks from their first album together A Dramatic Turn Of Events are included in either the main show or the bonus performances. Dream Theater are rock's supreme virtuosos with many awards to their name and here in concert they bring all the power and drama of their music to life with breathtaking performances of classic tracks from across their career.

First of all, if you are a DT fan, you already own this or have ordered it… enough said. If you're new to DT or thinking about checking them out, this is by far in my opinion, the best place to start watching them on video. The setlist for this Blu Ray is 26 songs, including every single song from Dramatic Turn. It includes a very nice assortment of classics, spanning most of their albums and touching on both their harder and softer stuff alike. My wife and I saw them on the Dramtic Tour of Events tour for four different shows in 2011-12, and loved every one of them. Ok, on to more specifics for this show…

The band's performances are absolutely top-notch, in my opinion they do not look or sound better in any of their other recorded shows, including Budokan. Major props to all DT members for being the amazing musicians that they are, their talent and performances are very moving and inspiring. While my favorite all-time band is admittedly Rush, I will say that you cannot find better musicianship outside of Dream Theater ANYWHERE! John Myung is his typical amazing self on bass… very quiet and unassuming, shying from the spotlight in spite of his ridiculous chops. As always, he sees his part as supporting the rest of the band most of the time, and he does it flawlessly. Jordan Rudess never fails to amaze on the keys, and his stand-alone "piano" solo will astound you with it's breathtaking beauty. John Petrucci is an absolute BEAST on guitar as always, and shines especially bright in what has become my favorite guitar solo of his at the end of Breaking All Illusions. If you haven't seen Mike Mangini on drums for DT yet, you're seriously missing out! While I was a huge Mike Portnoy fan, I have become an even huger Mike Mangini fan. His raw talent is unexplainably ridiculous (he is faster with a single hand than plenty of drummers are with both), but his love of his bandmates and sheer joy of playing with them is always apparent and an obvious blessing to the rest of the band after Portnoy's noisy departure 3 years ago. It is apparent that while they lost a brother in Portnoy, they found a musical soulmate in Mangini and the chemistry is just amazing. Finally last and NOT least, I must proclaim James LaBrie's vocals to be stronger and more powerful than ever. His voice has gotten so much stronger over the years, he actually seems to have found the fountain of youth!

The sound quality of this Blu Ray recording is also top-notch. It has crystal clear sound, with excellent high, mid and bass tones. The microphones seem to have been placed and set near perfectly for all band members, as I feel that both vocals and instrumentation were covered flawlessly. This seems to be a very hard thing to do, because so many rock (and especially metal) concerts have at least some instrumental distortion; and the vocalist often gets drowned out. Not here though, James' singing is as I mentioned earlier, very strong, and the mic volume for him is higher than most vocalist's volumes would be which results in actually being able to hear him and understand many of his lyrics… GAH, who'da thunk???

Now for my single gripe on this presentation, and I admit that it is a matter of personal choice/opinion. I feel that the director chose to move around too much for most of this concert, with too much camera switching. Considering that the main setlist at Luna Park is two hours and forty minutes, I feel like more patience should have been exercised in choosing when to switch cameras, allowing the viewer to absorb a little more from a given camera angle before switching to another. When cameras are switching as quickly as they were in much of this show, I feel a bit unrelaxed and nervous at times. For reference, Rush's Time Machine 2011 tour on Blu Ray shows much better direction in this area as I felt the camerawork and editing for that show were top-notch. However in the end, this shortcoming at Luna Park can be overlooked in light of how good all the other aspects are, and is not enough of a gripe to lower the overall 5* rating.

In closing, I am thrilled to finally own a copy of such an epic concert performance from a tour that my wife and I so thoroughly enjoyed in person. DT does not disappoint here in the least, this should be owned by all fans of anything progressive or metal!
