magnificant and mesmerizing!!
I am in complete agreement with all of the other reviews: PT can do no wrong here. By comparison, I am a newcomer when it comes to the breadth of PT's works, having only started listening to them over the last few years. I have purchased everything from Deadwing on, including Steve Wilson projects: Blackfield and Insurgents. When I saw this DVD was available I was intruiged. The low price was a no-brainer. Very little risk taken here and the reward is immense. I put this DVD in when I was exhausted from a long day, planning only to listen to the first few songs and critique the video quality. For an hour and 1/2 I sat in awe of these highly skilled and sychronized musicians, but forced myself to stop the disc so not to deny my senses the pleasure of seeing this amazing music in action when well rested. Sleep does not come easy for me as I'm distracted by the haunting melodies and power chords created by this magnificant group of musicians (magicians?). I will no doubt be purchasing "Arriving Somewhere" in the very near future. I highly recommend this to fans of Pink Floyd, Progressive Rock, Rush and anyone who can appreciate intelligent, deep and intoxicating music.
