I think it’s illegal to have that much pure talent on stage at the same time!🤘🎸

I was at this concert. The very best concert I've ever been in my 68 years. Goosebumps and tears of joy that would not go away. I thought it could not get any better. Well, I was mistaken..... Today I received the live DVD from this concert.... It is on repeat untill the end of times... or 2085......Speakers barely coping 🫣. Arjen Anthony Lucassen: thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

The whole week/weekend was magical, the show, all the fans, the people in and around the venue, the locals, everybody was having a wonderful time and Damian hugged them all 😂😂😂

I was there and will never forget. Still tears in my eyes! Cant wait for the bluray!!

I was at this concert, and is was awesome! Very much looking forward to the blu-ray, which will be released next week!

I was there, it was just epic. When I found Ayreon 2 years ago I knew I had to go to a live show. And it happened! I am already saving up for the next one, hopefully in 2025. It was amazing to meet all those lovely people from all over the world. Music indeed unites.

I was there and it was awesome, also bought the DVD box (signed bij Arjen) and got goosebumps again watching this whole show. If there will be another Ayreon show, I will be there.

Indeed it is the truth. You walk in an Ayreon concert, you walk out the door another person.. It really works that way. It is just like a kind of religious experience. The story is full of doom, but the outcome is always bright and hopefull. Arjen tells a story of hope and optimism. And the way he does that adds years to your prospective lifespan by pumping pure musical joy into your brain. God, the guy is sooooo goooood.

I agree: goosebumps upon goosebumps upon goosebumps. I fortunately saw two of these shows, and one of each of the previous ones, and it does ruin you for all other concerts, for sure. The talent, the production, the professionalism, the vision, and the solidarity among the fans and band members is next to none. And it is always such a joyful experience. I think I was smiling in my seep the whole night. Nothing else like it on the planet, which makes sense ;-)

I was there! Awesome experience indeed! ❤

Next Ayreon weekend ..... September 2025 !!!! 😉

Thanks again for this reaction. And yes it’s quite the experience being there, fortunately I was one of the lucky ones. 🤘

Soo good. 🤘🔥

I had the pleasure to watch the dvd from the show entirely. It's a blast.

I only discovered Ayreon a couple of years ago, and when I saw that videos of the live shows I was saying to myself that it would be cool to be at such concert, but that I would probably never have the chance to attend such a concert. However since that time, I changed my attitude and I said to myself tht the only reason for not having had the chance to do a thing was not having invested myself to actually do it. So the last 2 years, I did a lot of things that before I had only been dreaimg about, and one of these things was attend the Ayreon concert last year.

What a freaking great job you've got. (-; ••• PEACES!!!

I got to go to the Saturday matinee performance of this concert, and I thought it would ruin other concerts, but the key is to remember that nothing will match it except another Ayreon show, so you just stop comparing other concerts to it.

A masterpiece
