Trivia

  • In 2004, Live in Tokyo was released as Disc 1 of the Images and Words: Live in Tokyo / 5 Years in a LIVEtime DVD re-release. A commentary track by the band members was included on the DVD.
  • In the middle of Mike Portnoy's drum solo, "By Demons Be Driven", by Pantera is quoted.
  • Under John Petrucci's guitar solo in "To Live Forever", he plays the main riff from The Beatles' classic Within You Without You.
  • "Puppies on Acid" was a song originally written for live performances and as seen on this video is used for an intro to "Take the Time", this intro was later made into a full song which would become "The Mirror" on Awake, released in 1994.
