Dream Theater concert review
Papp László Budapest Sportaréna in Budapest, Hungary
Sat, 08 Feb 2020

I was not a fan until about 4 years ago when I first knowingly heard them and I like them immediately. So my next step was obviously to go to their concert, which finally happened a couple of days ago.

The concert was divided into two parts, including a 20-minute break. The first part played 6 songs, 3 from the current album and 3 from the older ones.
The second part, which most visitors were waiting for, was to play the Metropolis Pt album entirely. 2: Scenes from a Memory, in honor of the 20th anniversary of the release of this concept album. Both acts were played without pausing between songs, which surprised me very positively, and the atmosphere was at a high level.
Among the acts was a little longer address by the singer, we also sang all the best in honor of their manager, who celebrated his birthday on this day.
Finally, there was an encore, in which they played another piece from the last album.

I was very pleased with the concert. I was most excited to see and hear this technicality of the musicians and I was not disappointed - hands down, really amazing. LaBrie is, unfortunately, having problems with some of the tones but alright, not a mode killer :) And I didn't very much like the animations.

Anyway, a great concert, I was happy to be there.
See you at the next opportunity!
