Mother nature had her fun with the festivities on this July evening. As Mike Portnoy was joining Fates Warning for a quick rendition of ‘shutDOWN' from OSI, it was decided to “shutdown” the concert due to concerns over lightning.

After an almost 90 minute delay, Queensryche took the stage to the worst weather of the evening, followed by Dream Theater.

The concert was the victim to various sound problems due to the outdoor venue and the storm.

Tapers Comments :

“Overall, it sounds pretty damn good for a tape made in an outdoor venue. There is the occasional phasing effect due to blowing wind. As far as the mix, I thought it was great. Where I was standing it was only slightly JR heavy, which I dug because the last few times I'd seen (and taped) them I was on JP' s side & could only barely hear JR.” http://www.mikeportnoy.com/forum/fb.asp?m=251011
