Guitarist John Petrucci of Dream Theater chats it up with Brazil’s “Madhouse” and talks The Astonishing Live Show. “This is about three years in the making — beginning with creating the story that I wrote, and then presenting this to the band and Jordan [Rudess, keyboards] and I getting in, writing the music, recording everybody. And it took a really long time. We have a full orchestra, a full choir, it’s a huge project. And during that period, we actually also started to work on the live show. So that took about a year. So when you see it tonight, you’ll see all the content and everything that we took all that time to create. It’s a very, very big project.”
