I KNEW ABOUT THIS SHOW FOR A WHILE. I DIDN'T BUY ANY TICKETS TILL 15 MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOW STARTED. I HAVE EVERY CD OF TODD'S EXCEPT THE LAST TWO STUDIO AND THE LIVE BOX SETS. BEFORE I START MY REVIEW I WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS SOMETHING. I SAT 8TH ROW DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE PA SYSTEM ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE THEATER LOOKING AT THE STAGE. THE STAGE PRESENTATION WAS BEAUTIFUL AND UNIQUE. BUT THAT ISN'T MY ISSUE. THE ISSUE IS IT MUST BE HARD FOR SOUND MIXERS TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE SOUND SOUNDS LIKE NOTHING BUT LOUD HARSH UNBALANCED SHIT COMING OUT OF THAT OR ANY PA SYSTEM. WHY CAN I GO TO A CONCERT WHERE I CAN SIT IN FRONT OF THE PA AND HAVE IT SOUND LIKE A HIGH END AUDIOPHILE STEREO SYSTEM EXPEREINCE. WHERE EVERYTHING IS BALANCED CORRECTLY. STARTED WITH THE DRUMS AND WORKING FROM THERE. I THINK YOU NEED TO GET A PERFECTLY LOUD BALANCED DRUMS SOUND WITH EVERYTHING ON THE KIT HEARD AND MIX UP FROM THERE.....CAREFULLY. I LIKED THE CONCERT BUT WAS NOT FAMLIAR WITH THE NEW MATERIAL WHICH WAS 75% OF THE CONCERT. BUT READING THE VIEWS ON LIARS I THINK IT'S A MUST PURCHASE. ALTHOUGH LISTENING TO IT FIRST HAND I HAD NOT IDEA WHAT I WAS HEARING. IT WAS LIKE TODD RUNDGREN IN SPACE CONCERT.
