World Tourbulence in Chicago 15⁰ 2002 (2002‐03‐15: Vic Theatre, Chicago, IL, USA)

~ Release by Dream Theater (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

About 4 minutes into Pull Me Under, Mike Portnoy (the drummer) sped the tempo up and that verse as well as the following bridge were done completely at double speed – then he sped it up even more up until the actual chorus, where they slowed it back down to normal.

  • disc 3: track 11: ‘Surrounded’ is from another date
