Symphony X

Suprisingly good!

Seen this band play a couple of weeks ago and man, they have a tight show! They didn't really play their more classical pieces (what I was afraid of, so that's a relief), they play hard, fast and exactly like on cd. I didn't know what to expect, it was a concert with four other bands, Symphony X sort of headlining it, but to me they were absolutely headline-worthy. It was the last show on a tour of 21 locations, so they made some jokes. The band before symphony X put condoms on their microphones and a couple of band members from that band rushed the stage in underwear while Symphony X was playing. They never even had a false note in their music with all that distraction. Absolutely a professional band with a good repetoire of hard stuff! My advice; go watch them and you will find yourself in having to have a cd of them!
