Description
This release features a full 2-hour and 42-minute recording of the February 25th show at the Nippon Budokan in Tokyo, the memorable opening night of Mike Portnoy’s 2026 Japan tour, which was finally realized as part of his “40th Anniversary Tour” following his return. The concert is divided into two parts: the first part is a career-spanning set centered around representative numbers from “METROPOLIS PT. 2: SCENES FROM A MEMORY,” and the second part consists of six songs from the previous year’s release “PARASOMNIA” and the epic “Octavarium,” with the encore concluding with the catchy “The Spirit Carries On” and “Pull Me Under.” Furthermore, the official live album of the same tour released the previous year, “QUARANTIEME: LIVE A PARIS,” does not include 10 songs in total: 6 from “PARASOMNIA,” plus “Through My Words,” “Fatal Tragedy,” “The Enemy Inside,” and “Peruvian Skies.” Therefore, this limited-edition memorial item from their Japan tour is a must-have for fans, as it allows them to enjoy their latest performance style here in Japan.
