Terrific video, filmed from a great location as others have said. The Opening is stunning, especially those new visuals. I love the "curtain drop" when the light beams cut on zero. It's a track I'll never get tired of.

Epica also has fresh visuals, another one of his best tracks. Not just best recent tracks, I'd say one of his best ever.

The lighting design is really great. This show, even more than last year, is just high impact, in yer face lights and lasers. Nothing wrong with that, but also no need to think to deeply about anything.

Especially the one on Zero Gravity is actually pretty decent! Yes he's not a really good keyboard player etc. but it's still nice 😁

I really enjoyed those little improvisations too. It’s also a huge plus that JMJ didn't overuse the same effects from Roland HandSonic over and over again like he did last year. It got a bit irritating on the previous tour so it’s refreshing to see him use it with more restraint this time around.

​On another note, I just rewatched the full Athens concert on a big TV screen and visually, the show is absolutely spectacular. Top-notch is definitely the word for it.

Epica, Brutalism, Oxymore, Sex.., MF1, Eq4, Arpegiator - just brilliant

Also, it feels like the sound design has been fine tuned. For example MF1 sounds way better to me now. It has much more depth and the individual layers are much cleaner and easier to pick out. At least, that’s how it feels to my amateur ears.

Looks like it. The bottom two items look like "Magnetic Fields 2" and "Rendez-Vous 4" - which would mean a reshuffle

That setlist seems to include Epica Oxygene, but the one on setlist.fm doesn't (BTW it also confirms the swap of RV4 and MF2 and MF1 being the first one, followed by The Opening)

Setlist web has the correct setlist in correct order.

A little different tonight I was told. So, changes will be reported.
