yeah, if you catch DF RIGHT after a studio release, they're going to play sloppy because they're still learning the song. I've seen DF twice and the second time they nailed each song note for note (it was in february of last year on the No Fear tour or something). The first time I saw them was on the off day from Ozzfest 2 years ago. They flubbed it a little, but not near as bad as the videos. I'm sure lots of skilled guitarists have made mistakes on video before. Petrucci is clearly better than Sam or Herman. Petrucci is without question the greatest rock guitarist ever and always will be. That said DF isn't bad. Their stage presence IMHO is better than DT's. They're really high energy and lots of fun.

Just kidding. Definately though, if I wasn't so astounded in awe and addicted to Dream Theater I would definately find Dragonforce much funner due to the atmosphere. Dream Theater shows are pretty much 100% music, which is how they want it to be, and how it should be, nothing wrong with that. However I can definately see why one would want to go see DF, having never heard of them, just because it is always fun to go to a rock concert.
