The guy with the funny hat is Michael Mills. The same guy who does the binary 0101001 part of the "The day that wolrd breaks down" song! He is awesome!! Arjen is awesome!! and you guys are awesome too!
Yeah, he's a legend.
Arjen is very much a studio guy…he has stage fright, though he does perform in these live Ayreon shows here and there. The live shows are mostly organized and produced by Joost Van Den Broek, the keyboard player. He is pretty brilliant himself, having formerly played keyboards in a band called After Forever that featured a young vocalist named Floor Jansen. He has also produced albums by Epica, Blind Guardian, and a host of others, and worked with Floor on her latest solo material. Oh, and he was knighted by the Dutch royals, so I guess he’s SIR Joost.
Even if you only got a short time of Floor here you got her sister the whole song doing backup vocals 😊
Irene!!! It still blows my mind there's TWO kick-ass singing Jansens.
Floor is luxury premium! ❤️ Ten seconds is all you get! Be happy the queen has graced us with her presence. 👸
Those Ayreon live shows are mostly managed by Joost, the keyboard player. He's also a knighted by the Dutch Royals.
Joost, as in After Forever and still works with Floor on things?
Never mind, I see it IS that Joost from.other comments. Sir Joost now? Way cool.
@@jeffk1482 Yes and also producer for other bands such as Epica.
Yes, they are all brilliant!!!! And this is all composed by our nutty brilliant professor Arjen Lucassen. You definitely should try to witness a live concert from him. It is a life changer. After witnessing one concert I made the solemn promise to never miss another one.
Maybe Intergalactic Space Crusaders next?
The guy with lasers on his head is the same guy who sang the computer binary code in The Day That The World Breaks Down - Michael Mills. ;)
To fully enjoy this song you have to listen to it like 20 times to really get all the transitions, because everything happens so fast and unexpectedly. It has become one of my most favorite songs EVER. As you said - it´s so fun even though it is about huge catastrophe, and the level of musicianship is unbelievable. They had to practice their asses off to play this live like it´s nothing. And they are all basically like the all stars at the NHL annual event - the best of the best. And according to their statements in the DVD, they were so much looking forward to this event, and they loved every second they were there - like a family. What an experience this show must have been for everybody - audience and musicians! You still haven´t seen the final piece from this concert - I won´t say anything about it, so you have some surprise, but it´s so goosebumps evoking! ua-cam.com/video/odcO0SciTUY/v-deo.html
If you read Timo Arula's list you'll note that Floor's sister Irene is a backing singer. There is an early live concert of Star One 2003(live) where Floor and Irene are only females. Arjen actually plays and sings !! ua-cam.com/video/SuRJP_qmGy0/v-deo.html
This concert was the only concert i went to that i rate a 11 this was the BEST.
“Who writes stuff like this”?
Arjen Anthony Lucassen 🤘🎶
Masterclass how to make music !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TWO Jansens for the price of one - Floor's sister Irene is in the three women chorus, nearest to the drummer.
You could say, The tallest of the three! It's a Jansen thing.😄😄
The guy with the light in the beginning... Michael Mills aka TH-1
Some more Maggie Luyten and a fabulous guitar solo? Check out Ayreon 'Star of Sirrah'
Thanks! You can check out our reaction to Star of Sirrah on our channel 🤘🏻
@@SongsandThongs Hah, you already did that one (and I saw that one too) but just forgot about it... Keep going!
I do believe that Floors sister is the taller of the 3 back up singers...
This album should be a movie/musical
Who is she? She is the sister of the tall girl on the left in the backing vocal group, Irene Jansen. Her name is Floor Jansen. 😂
😂😂😂Oh thought she looked familiar 😉😂
Next year ayreon will have a few life shows in the netherlands so start saving some money and come to Tilburg in the netherlands
Yeah, sold out like in 15 minutes. :)
"Who writes stuff like this?"
LOL
Actually, when it comes to the arrangement, give some credit to the keyboardist here : Joost van den Broek ... SIR Joost van den Broelk.
Arjen credits him with much of the translation to the live performance, and there is much afoot here.
I love how the instruments will drop back when key vocals are present (e.g. Floor's bit).. That's all Joost.
And one more shot out. The guiy on the 7-string/baritone guitar : Ferry Duijsens
It's his playing that sets up that wonderful, almost swing-beat between himself and the drummer. I woud get so lost in that rhythm that I would surely muck it up. Both Ferry and the bassist (Johan Von Stratum) just swing right through like "Oh. This awesomeness?? Yes, we do this every day!"
If you wanted to explore something that is not getting much YT attention, I woul seek out one of HIS projects... I haven't looked into it yet, but it's running up higher on my to-be-investigated list.
You two have fun.. it's off to work for me.
I want the helmet with the two lasers on it.

There's so much more for you to explore in Arjen's Universe. One recommendation from the same concert, that you guys really need to see is one with a heavy Nightwish presence.. "Ayreon Universe - Age of Shadows Live at Tilburg 2017"
Love Sharlene's mention of Floor's little sister Irene (who is even slightly taller). Another stellar singer in that backing vocal trio is Marcela Bovio. I highly recommend checking out her band (with two former ReVamp members, Floor's band before NW), and this song here "Dark Horse White Horse - Black Hole keyboard play-through"🤘 Cheers from Amsterdam!
I would've sworn you already did this one...
Am I the only one with a Deja Vu?
#confused
Marcel Coenen is the main guitarist and he is fantastic!!!
The whole live ‘Universe’ concert is epic, definitely all worth checking out!
There is a lot more of Floor!
The guy in the beginning is the same guy (Michael Mills) that does the Queen like things and the 10010101 lyrics in "The day that the world brakes down"
Super reaction as always!
This was fun hey!!!, but my question is have you guys allready reacted to epica "design your universe"
That one is a rollercoaster and i promise you're gonna love it!!!
Floor and her sister sing together in one song in this concert
It's another one of Arjens "Floor bombs". He just throw in Floor at the end for fun. 😁
And Maggi is a pint sized Belgian tornado.
Listen to the "Two gates" where Irene Jansen introduce the band mid song.
Indeed, good job by Irene Jansen of introducing the bandmembers
Looks like Charlene has been catching some sun down there in the Cape. Great reaction guys. So many great artists in this performance.
Haha yes indeed. We are actually in Natal, not Cape Town 😊
@@SongsandThongs oh, ok. For some reason I thought you were in CT. I'm up in Joburg
This is a brilliant song. One of the best made ever.
I am most impressed with the drummer though.
I have seen him here and in other parts of the show, and the teaser "The day when the world breaks down".
He is just so "natural". He blends in like some kind of ninja, or something.
The playing is so dynamic and fits totally perfect. After a while you even forget he is there.
Its magic.
Love to see you both in hot stuff you guys are a blast
Arjen likes to drop in Floor as the big finish to his extravaganzas. Rightly. 🤘😎👍
😁🇫🇮❤️🎶🎹🎸🥁✨🤘💙
Symphonic Metal, answer to ewerything ✨🎶🤘
the one with the helmet is lead singer for a band called toehinder
yes guys the guy at the begining is Michael Mills a multi talented Aussie
Lovely reaction. I agree. Just brilliant.
Every singer on stage is a character in Arjen's story.
Findely ive have been waiting for this one,but there is more Ayreon who will going thru your speakers. But Arjen him self have been buzzy in those days,you guys have to sheck out Stream of passions with Marcela Bovio and her sister in the vocals,and if you search up Stream of passions live in the real world day eleven love its some of those few melodys who Arjen are singing,you have to sheck this up.....
Im sure the OF is great, but I want to see more of Harry!! lol
If you like Ayreon try Twisted Coil (live). Its from an earlier live show and has only one singer.. Not Foor! Its sung by Damian Wilson, who has a powerful voice as well. At the end he reaches Floor like levels of belting, its Amazing, honestly one of the best live performances from any of Arjens projects.
😂 You will see him on the S&T OF edition 😉😊
MORE AYREON!!!!
You can watch the live show on UA-cam.
It’s basically a rock/metal/prog opera based on a sci-fi story that Arjen came up with. It’s a good time. Some songs are short. Some longer. They all tell a piece of the story.
Again late, but...
So yes, yes and yes! Arjen is the genius author and ringleader of this spectacular circus. And you know how difficult is the translation between studio and live performance.
EVERY number in this live performance is brilliant and worthy of your/our attention.
A side note - Arjen is, I believe, the originator and master purveyor of the (should be patented) precision application of the Floor Bomb near the end of otherwise spectacular compositions. Judge for yourselves!

🤘👹🤘
Hey H&C
I just got home from work and did a little digging.
If you like this line-up, there is are a couple 'rpoject' groups from the mid/late 2010's that you should check out.
(big chunks of this lineup are in it)
Take a look at THE GENTLE STORM - Brightest Light (Live @ Zoetermeer)
YT = vDtBD4ylFQU
You'll recognize some of these faces plus at least one more that you should know.
Nice
They give me nightwish vibes. Just imagine a concert with them and Nightwish performing. I wrote this before I saw FLOOR!!!!!
I think it is time that you interviewed Arjen on your channel
Think so too. We need to find out from him when he is available 😃
@@SongsandThongs Arjen is a great guy, years ago when my brother died I wrote to him a lot and his wisdom helped me through a tough time. I met with him in London at a show and gave him a silver ring and told him I had adopted him as a brother.
Oh, something most countries would not have, a keyboard player who is actually knighted by a real King, small country after all.
one is a singer from kamelot and the otherone is singer from blindguardian
I am one of the dissenters - I do apologise if I caused any offence - I joined UA-cam during the lockdown during a very difficult time for my Family and having found you both amongst others enjoy and continue to enjoy your reactions - but do please try to keep most reactions on UA-cam - money is a problem in this particular moment for many people. Having said that, a wonderful reaction once again. You might want to do something new and arrange an interview with Arjen - he's a very easy going and amiable guy - I'm sure he'd love to talk to you both! He has done this with at least 4 or 5 reactors I subscribe to. Take good care of yourselves. David
Not a problem, you didn't offend us at all, just thought we would explain the reason behind the OF reaction channel. The majority of our reactions will remain on UA-cam. Some are blocked and then we add them to OF. We also get special requests specifically for OF. We understand that not everyone is in the position to subscribe and that is fine, we will always be here on YT. Glad that our reactions helped a little while you were going through a difficult time, that is super special to hear.
Yes, we will reach out to Arjen and find out when he is available for an interview
You reacted to Ayreon a year ago with TDTTWBD, the singers all acted there (except Maggie), and how is it possible you do not recognize Michael “4 octave” Mills who played the android TH1😬? And one of the background singers is Floor’s sister Irene
If you contact Arjen he will find time for a live online interview, he loves his fans
They couldn't pay Floor enough, so they only got 10 seconds.😁
Maybe marlies dekker will support you a little bit 😁😁😁
BTW - the “backup” singers are all lead singers in their own rights….. and the third to the left, she is related to someone who you know…..
and she is also a bit taller than you know who.
@@argantyr5154 Now, now, now we all know we never ask how tall or mention height to you know who....
That was brilliant…. Leave it at that
How have you guys still not done Eye of Ra from this concert?
Also Floors sister is one of them three girls singing. Just if no one commented yet.
Actually Sharlene mentioned it while reacting 😉😊
Ya ever thought that your beginning riff sounds bit like Sabaton? Or is it from them?
Nightwish army Finland 🤘 𝓜𝓾𝓼𝓽𝓪 𝓛𝓪𝓪𝓽𝓽𝓪...
Don't know how to make reaction requests so I'll post here. Your reactions are always fun to watch! Can you react to Korean Rock girl band called "Rolling Quartz"? It would be interesting to see your take on them. Here's their most recent MV "Azalea" ua-cam.com/video/EVbR7F2YgNQ/v-deo.html This or any of their other songs would be great!

you are right Sharlene... Floor's sister Irene is in the backing vocals ... most left one of the three ladies :-)
Yay, I got it right haha 😉😊
@@SongsandThongs 🤣
The swim suits and thongs I am into, but I think I will pass on the speedos! Thanks for sharing. It is kind of like watching a prog metal Broadway allstar show. Michael Mills is the guy with the crazy outfit. He is all in playing the role of TH-1, the computer. Wait until you check out "Star of Sirrah" from this same show. You will hear the amazing solo ability of Marcel Coen. Among other surprises. They are so much fun. Loved it! Peace out! Cheers! 🙏🙏
😂 Thanks. We actually reacted to Star of Sirrah already, you can check the reaction out on our channel 🤘🏻
When even the background singers are front women of great bands.... Darn!
What is the intro song to this reaction? It sounds fuckin fire!
Did you check out valley of the Queens of the same show already?
Not yet unfortunately
BABYMETAL - THE ONE (OFFICIAL) ua-cam.com/video/TZRvO0S-TLU/v-deo.html
You realise it's brilliance but haven't reacted to every song from the show?
Incase you are not aware, Marco also features on this amazing masterpiece.
Why that silly voice? What for?
