LIVE AT BUDOKAN

An average DVD highlighting what Dream Theater does best, run away with the notes. The "instrumedley" is proof of this more or less. The DVD is recorded very well, and the concert is well organized, with a good mixture of songs from their albums.

However, this almost serves better as an instructional DVD than a concert DVD, with the camera works constantly zoomed in on the fretboards. I would have hoped we had more in the "Behind the Scenes" footage, which really isn't behind much. Score would be the DVD to get by casual listeners and fans of the band alike.
