This is because another boot, "Dimension Shift" is nearly identical to this one, and this one is next to impossible to find. ::11,6,3,8,1,14,12,9 Classic Live (1993 REBORN CLASSICS: RC1045) Recorded at Plus 5, Ft.

Has cover art by Harald Heinrichs. ::13,1,14,12,3,10,39,4,9,11 ::15,16,13,6,17,8,49 Skyway of Nightmares (UK) 1993, CD Recorded at Augsbug Rockfabrik, 7 April 1993, Germany ::13,1,14,12,3,10,9,11,15,16 Moon Bubbles 2 dics, manufacturer not listed Club Citty, Kawasaki (near Tokyo) Nov 16, 1993 ::13,14,8,12,9,3,20 ::10,39,4,11,15,16 Dream Out Loud, Italy (1993 KISS THE STONE: KTS243) Soundboard recording, radio broadcast, Buffalo, NY May 18, 1993 It has very good packaging, with a cool picture disc, and a nice band history. ::13,14,2,15,12,21,11,17,50,46,10,9,16 Lords Of Sound, Italy (1993 KISS THE STONE: KTS282/283) Soundboard recording, radio broadcast, Milwaukee, WI June 29, 1993 ::13,14,1,15,12,21,11 ::17,50,2,10,9,18,16 Puppies On Acid, 1994, CD (???) 1 CD Bondage Music 009 Same show as Lords Of Sound, single CD Audience recording, Milwaukee, June 29,1993 Great cover, with shots from the members of the band. ::13,14,1,15,12,21,11,17,46,2,10 Dance of Eternity, 1994, CD (Luxumburgh) Rocks 92111 1 CD recorded in Buffalo, May 18, 1993. This is a radio broadcast. It is a little different of "Dream out loud" because it features the full version of "Learning to live" (cut off on DOL) and "Eve"! ::13,14,2,15,17,50,46,10,9,18,16. Excellent (Nova/ GEMA NV-09) audience recording, New York, 7/22/93 Cheap packaging, portrait band photo on front cover. Sounds like it was recorded by a distant stereo microphone at the back of the hall. Slight stereo image, even quality, massive drum sound, possible DAT recording. Deep bass notes (bass pedals?) get distorted. Concert is not same as DoL but Galactic Cowboys are credited too. Date is possibly supported by JL "on road for 10 months","N.Y". No close audience sound. ::14,12,21,11,17,49?,46,2,10,9,16 Mission: Impossible (2CD) (Wyvern EC.BV. DT104WV 1/2) August 28, 1993; Osaka Festival Hall, Japan (NOTE: I am not certain where the 1st disc ends and 2nd begins) The sound is very good!

Records # BKCD089) October 27th, 1993; Stockholm, Sweden FM broadcast for live, soundboard for demos vocals: Labrie for Live, Collins for Majesty Demos Edits between several songs, possibly where station played its call letters. No static on the recording. No deeps bass (nothing above 12 kHz). The demos sound better than the "Official 1986 Demos" CD. The packaging is ok, with a chrome font for the dream theater, and all 5 guys' heads floating over a live stage shot, with the stage mostly dark. The CD is a picture disc, with the flaming heart from LatM on the cover (looks like a 2 or 3 color scan) ::13,33,6,14,15,12,11,9,27,23,24,25 Lost In The Sky, Italy (1994 Why Not? and Metal Crash: MECD2158/59) November 15, 1994; Palasesto, Milan, Italy Soundboard, pre FM broadcast DAT, mixed with aud DAT for Under Glass Moon & March Of The Tyrant. Packaging is roughly half of the size of an album sleeve, sort of like old CD longboxes. CDs fit in middle of tri-fold case. Individual pictures of band, although Myung's picture is there for himself and Petrucci. ::13,33,6,14,15,12,3,21,11 ::17,53,10,8,9,18,16 "Milan 93", 1994, 2CD (Italy) 2CD Live Storm 52593 Radio recording, Milan, Italy, November 15, 1993. This is the same as "Lost in the sky" (most Live Storm are boots of boots) A Kick Into A Dream (2CD) (1994 Metal Crash/Why Not?: MECD2186/7 Interesting packaging with many pictures of the band w/o Moore (or Sherenian). The packagine mentions that Moore left and Sherenian is touring with them. ::9,54,11,55,62,7 ::60,61,10,57,58,59,13 Audience and Soundboard tapes: ------------------------------ The Majesty demos, 1986-89 (Not produced.)
