Ton of DVDs in the shop here. I only have a couple dozen from some favorite prog bands (the usual suspects- Dream Theater, Spock's Beard, etc). What are your favorite concerts/releases to watch, especially if A) you're a drummer, or B) The Laser's Edge carries them, since I'm lazy & hoping not to look elsewhere? Suggestions welcome!
 
Been a while since I last watched any of my live stuff, but ones I really enjoyed include-

Queensryche - Mindcrime at the Moore
Rush - Snakes & Arrows Live
Rush - Exit... Stage Left
Porcupine Tree - Arriving Somewhere
Kamelot - One Cold Winter's Night
 
Both A,B:

The Flower Kings - Tour Kaputt Live (DVD) -- Pat Mastelotto / Drums, loops, effects
Gentle Giant - GG At The GG (DVD/CD) -- John Weathers / drums, vibraphone
King Crimson - Live In Argentina (2DVD) -- Pat Mastelotto / Bill Bruford (acoustic & electronic percussions)
Portnoy Sheehan MacAlpine Sherinian - Live In Tokyo (DVD)
Steven Wilson - Get All You Deserve (DVD) -- Marco Minnemann / drums
 
Dream Theater - live at Budokan
The Who - tommy live with special guests
Kansas - there's know place like home
Opeth - lamentations
Zappa plays Zappa
 
Fates Warning - Live in Athens
Evergrey - A Night to Remember
Peter Gabriel - Growing Up Live
King Crimson - The Power To Believe Japan
Redemption - Live Progpower (the 1st one)

Those are the ones I can think of right now.

I love the Fates and Evergrey because of the rawness, specially the Fates one...
 
Paul McCartney & Wings - RockShow
Plant & Page - No Quarter - Unledded
 
I have many good ones, but if I were to pick 5, it would be:

Evergrey - A Night To Remember
Blind Guardian - Imaginations Through the Looking Glass
Anathema - Universal
Pain of Salvation - Ending Themes
Riverside - Reality Dream
