Good chunk of them are dutch, but certainly not all... Arjen is clearly appreciated and respected throughout the industry, and not just in our little 'kikkerlandje'. But yeah, it does warm your heart...
@@AsgrodElros And the internet to widen your horizon! I hope the artists you admire will visit your country, or you see a chance to join a concert abroad!
Most important is, that everybody is having a great time. The musicians, the singers, the audience and even John De Lancie is dancing. This is what it is all about.
@@WolfhoundMercenary Can't agree more. @W Comrie: You definitely need to go to an Ayreon universe, it was so fucking amazing, the whole concert was such a blast
These shows are incredible when you are in the audience and you see your favorite prog musicians just come on stage one after another and give an incredible performance :) I've been to all of them except this one which makes me so sad.

What's incredible is how many great musicians he is able gather together for his music. What's lame is that here in the U.S., Polls still show Rock is still the number listened to genre but the age group is older. But because teens and early 20's drive the market(with awful rap topping steaming downloads) its hard for Rock bands to solidify here unless it a Tier One band. Thankfully there is still plenty of music to listen to.
This feels like when I first saw all the avengers appear in the same movie and couldn't believe my eyes. In here, I stare in awe and listen. My favourite artists in one killer song.
I had no idea this even happened till just now. I was a huge fan when I was a teenager. I’m very impressed they were able to pull this off, I remember Arjen said a long time ago he wasn’t sure it would ever be possible.
How on EARTH have this band go under my radar all these CENTURIES 😵😵😵 THIS IS AMAZING!!!! I've heard so many times of Arjen but never actually listened to his music. Thank you Floor for finally making the introduction!!! (I blame being stuck in the death black scene for ages haha).
pois é mano... não dá nem pra acreditar q esse show aconteceu... Olha quantos cantores incriveis, o nível dessa produção, esse palco... os instrumentistas... o nível da execução... é td impecavel...
Seeing an Ayreon show is now on my bucket list (55 yr old metalhead of 40 yrs). This song is an outstanding intro to this show but the whole bluray experience is mindblowing. John deLancie brings the whole thing together with Alien ( "the Forever") a lot better than what was on the original album 20+years ago.
Simplemente majestuoso...alguien dice más abajo que era mejor de lo que se imaginaba sería en vivo... No hay mejor manera de expresar tamaña versión de este monumento al rock progresivo
Same. Makes me proud to be Scottish! Can’t stop listening to it. Was always a massive Q fan when the narrator was on Star Trek! My mother in law taught Fish at school as well in Dalkeith!
@@cristhiansoria8774 with the red hair... yes she is! And with the blonde hair is Anneke van Giersbergen... you should look her up. She's the one that brought Floor Jansen to the metal side of music...
I'm sitting here watching this proudly strumming on Arjen's actual Takamine 12 string guitar that he used to record this, probably my favourite ever song. What an incredible live rendition - perfection.
I also think that the Arena would be too far away for Arjen. He said in an interview one time that he loves 013 cause its a quick drive home from there :)
In Germany the average music listener can handle 3 minute-songs LOL ... that's why everything around prog/progmetal is for the ones, who know better...
