LIQUID TENSION EXPERIMENT – Live box set now available for pre-order! *Updated with LA trailer!*

adminNews

From Mike Portnoy –

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…

The LTE Box Set is the ultimate souvenir of Liquid Tension Experiment’s 10th Anniversary Reunion Tour.
Included in this deluxe package is both the NYC and LA shows in their entirety (on both CD and DVD), as well as the Liquid Trio Experiment 2 CD and two items that are exclusive to this set and will not be available separately: Live In LA on Blu Ray disc and a bonus CD of all of the improv jams from the other LTE 2008 shows.

THIS DELUXE BOX SET IS LIMITED EDITION AND ONLY AVAILABLE ON A FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE BASIS!!!
THERE WILL ONLY BE ONE PRESSING DONE AND ONCE THEY ARE GONE, THEY ARE GONE FOREVER!!!
DON’T REGRET MISSING OUT ON THIS GREAT COLLECTOR’S ITEM!
