LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT – LIVE BOX SET NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER

Originally, my intention was to record several shows and combine them to make one compilation CD/DVD release….but in reviewing the tapes, it became very obvious that the NYC and LA footage each offered very different perspectives of the shows we did…each with their own distinct personalities and both having their own charms (and flaws….)
 
The NYC show was very much a loud, sweaty, small club show (with alot of energy from the crowd) and the LA show was very much a more polished, breathing, theater experience (which offered a more relaxed «presentation»).
 
So in the end, I decided to simply offer both shows in their entirety…
It’s not often people will get to experience LTE Live, so why not offer you guys the chance to see and hear us in both settings….?
And even though the setlists are the same, you can hear some very subtle (and also some very obvious) differences from one performance to the next…

Liquid Trio Experiment 2 – When The Keyboard Breaks: Live In Chicago

2009 will see Ytsejam Records branch out with releases by select Dream Theater side projects on their new «Lazy Tomato Entertainment» label.
 
Coming this Spring will be the long awaited live CD and DVD releases by Liquid Tension Experiment.
 
But to whet your appetite until those titles are ready to go, we will launch Ytsejam’s side-project offspring with the release of the LIQUID TRIO EXPERIMENT 2 – «When The Keyboard Breaks: Live In Chicago» CD.
 
This is the infamous «jamarathon» which took place at LTE’s June 25th 2008 show in Chicago when Jordan Rudess’ keyboard broke down. Mike Portnoy, John Petrucci and Tony Levin proceeded to play and improvise almost 1 hour of insane musical madness to a stunned audience.
 
This was an unbelievably unique evening that can now be shared for those not fortunate enough to have been in attendance that very special night.

DTNorway Podcast

Hei!

Vi vet det er lenge siden vi har gitt dere noe nytt nå, og vi beklager det sterkt. Vi lover å komme sterkere tilbake nå, og kommer til å ha en ny fanzine, en ny kalender og mer smågodt fremover. Nå kommer vi også med en ny «feature» som vi skal forsøke å utvikle, og det er en DTNorway Podcast.

Den kan man finne på http://dtnorway.com/podcast.xml – Legg til i iTunes eller ditt favorittprogram. Her vil det følge intervju, musikkbiter og mer. Dette er vår første podcast, tatt litt på sparket, så kvaliteten er vel deretter. Men jeg er fornøyd, så jeg håper dere også blir fornøyde. Tar imot kritikk og forslag med takk. Om noen har lyst til å bidra med seksjoner i podcasten, så gjerne det! Om folk som er med i band på forumet har lyst til å delta, så kan vi arrangere en liten intervjuseksjon og noen smakebiter. Dette uansett størrelse på bandet (om dere er veletablert eller nystartede, om dere har publisert mange album eller fortsatt kun lager hjemmeopptak).

I allefall.
