porcupine tree rocks
The Blu Ray version of this DVD set is superb. PT once again proves they are the best band the mainstream ignores. So far I have 5 converts after watching this concert. The "Fear Of a Blank Planet" tour was one of the best shows going and they have captured the essence of the concert experience on this DVD. The video is second to none as Lasse Hoile outdoes himself once again.His placement of cameras overhead on the drums is pure genius. I sat in awe wathcing the master drummer at work. Gavin Harrison ranks as one of the top 5 drummers around. Colin Edward's bass prvoides the bottom and lays the foundation for Wilson's superb solos. John Wesley's guitar work is more than adequate as he is a great player in his own right.likes: the video is supurb, the playing is technically perfect from all 5 members, they do rock!Could have been better: John's backup vocals were too loud sometimes drowning out Steve's excelent voice. The set list not as strong as "Arriving Somewhere" tour, but better than the "Incident" tour although we still look forward to the concert release.Stev'e vocal is a little weak on the first couple of numbers, but there is a point in the third song that they just seem to crank it up and it all comes together.Great Performance! Keep it up!
