Dream Theater - Metropolis 2000: Scenes From New York (DVD)

Dream Theater is a band that has refused to compromise their musical vision to meet the changing tides of musical fashion, staying true to their uniqu e blend of chops-intensive metal and thoughtful progressive rock. Their 199 9 album Scenes from a Memory was one of their most ambitious efforts to dat e, a sprawling concept album about a man who is haunted by the spirit of a woman who was murdered 70 years ago. For their 2000 world tour, Dream Theat er played the Scenes from a Memory album in its entirety each night, and Me tropolis 2000: Scenes from New York blends footage of the band's August 30, 2000, concert at New York's Roseland Ballroom with montages and staged foo tage that help bring the album's story to visual life. In a move typical of the band's desire to maintain strict control over their own work, the Metr opolis 2000: Scenes from New York video was directed by the group's drummer , Mike Portnoy. 21 tracks including bonus.
