YouTube comes through again with badass music. The Tube brings you basically a whole Liquid Tension Experiments concert in a small venue. In fact, not just a small venue, but the NAMM in 1999.. the 3rd show they ever did. Mistakes are made and it still sounds awesome :)

Granted, the video and audio on these are so so, but you cant help but love it if you are into the prog rock. I have linked directly to one video and we will let you go to thoe others if you would like to.

For the unfamiliar, Liquid Tension Experiment is an offshoot from Dream Theater. Three DT band members and Tony Levin (who has played with more bands than i can possibly name here) are the core of the band.

Date of show: 1/30/1999 Los Angeles, CA
Venue: NAMM
Time: sometime after @am from what Tony’s website says.

Set List:
1. Osmosis
2. Paradigm Shift
3. Biaxident
4. Mike & Tony
5. Universal Mind
6. Acid Rain

Lineup-
Guitar: John Petrucci
Keyboards: Jordan Rudess
Bass: Tony Levin
Drums: Mike Portnoy

I have ripped the Mono Audio from these videos and converted them to dual channel MP3. On each file, the right Channel has been inverted to cancel out some of the spatial noise, nice side effect is that it does not sound as flat when listening to it. Biaxident has an annoying high tone at the beginning that i could not remove.

If the file ends up offline and you want it, let me know through a comment with your email in the field provided and i will reupload and notify you.
