Progressive Nation was seated. D: It was very disappointing. :/ The bands this year were (in order of appearance) Scale the Summit, Bigelf, Zappa Plays Zappa, and Dream Theater.
Scale the Summit were okay, not amazing, but not terrible. The convention center was close to empty when they played.
Bigelf were good, although they could have been better. They didn’t play Blackball or Gravest Show On Earth. :(
Zappa Plays Zappa were okay, not incredible imo, but I’m sure that other people liked them. In Karen’s words, “Dweezil didn’t do anything but stand there and look pretty.” I would’ve liked them more if I knew any of Zappa’s music.
Dream Theater were incredible. The set started off with A Nightmare to Remember, which was a great opening. Then came A Rite of Passage, Scene Four: Beyond This Life, 3 songs we didn’t recognize, Solitary Shell, and then the encore was The Count of Tuscany.
My voice has almost recovered now. If only my neck would follow its lead.
Videos to come when they’re up if I’m not too lazy.
