    Progstock Virtual Concert: Mystery

    I found this band very enjoyable at ROSFET in 2015 when they had Benoit David (former Yes vocalist). They have a different vocalist now which IMO is stronger. Anyway check them out on Sat Dec 12.

    We love Mystery, and in fact just watched this concert Sunday night(on YT), but it's on the list for Christmas.
    I really like the Benoit David era, One Among the Living, The World is a Game and Tales from the Netherlands(Live).
    It took me awhile to warm up to Jean Pageau, the new singer, but after watching this concert, I think he's great.
    One of the most underrated bands in my opinion. Michael St Pere's writing and production is up there with the best in the business. His ear for melody is superb!

    They played in Ottawa about 2 years ago. I wanted to go but skipped it. Based on this video, definitely should have gone!!
    What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it brings forth a sound (2112)

    Hey, Top Cat, do you mean the ProgStock show is on YT, or did you mean another from the same tour (ProgDreams?)? Do you have a link for whatever it is you watched, if it's a complete show? Thanks!

    Sorry, for not being specific, it was a new show for me and I didn't pay much attention. It's from the ProgDreams show available from Unicorndigital(same as the one posted here).
    It's listed as this: Mystery - Second Home (Live At ProgDreams V) Unicorn Digital
    We didn't see the whole show, but I believe Unicorndigital has the whole show posted.
    I just ordered it from Amazon yesterday(Friday), after receiving a wonderful Christmas Gift Card from our adult kids in California.

    Really enjoyed them with Benoit when we saw them at FMPM opening for Saga and actually thought Benoit was better than when I saw him with Yes here in town at the Calvin. Very disappointed not to see the new vocalist when their opening set for Neal Morse Band in Montreal was cancelled when Neal's driver was not allowed over the border and the band ran VERY late. Am enjoying the live sets with Jean. There seem to be quite a few...

    Blu-ray of the 2018 Netherlands show can be preordered now, and will be available in a couple of weeks. The capture of video and audio is phenomenal. There is a 5.1 mix and the show I watched last night in stereo 320 kbs, was great. My ears still appreciate lossless vs 320 kbs.

    I’m not familiar with all of the releases. YouTube has a number of pieces. The band website realmystery.com has many links.

    We caught the later show because we were watching the IQ Subterranea show at 3pm. Both shows were a badly needed treat.
    I too miss Benoit. I just felt his voice fit that era of the band better. But yes, the new singer is way more animated and has a great voice. It's a bit of a different band to me with him there. Nevertheless, I'm sticking with them and will order the new blu-ray.
