Live Scenes From New York is a 3CD live album by progressive metal band Dream Theater, recorded on August 30, 2000, at the Roseland Ballroom in New York City. It was originally released on September 11, 2001, but when it was noticed that the cover artwork depicted the twin towers of the World Trade Center in flames, it was recalled and re-released a short time later. Some copies with the original artwork still exist, and are now a rare collectors item.
Live Scenes From New York is the audio counterpart to the Metropolis 2000: Scenes From New York DVD, released in early 2001.
The album contains, to date, the only complete live performance of Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory on general release. It also marks the first live Dream Theater release to feature Jordan Rudess on keyboards. The version of "A Change Of Seasons" on this album contains a baseball theme (played by John Myung), the theme tune to TV series The Simpsons (played by John Petrucci) and a piano solo, the ending to "When the Water Breaks" from the album Liquid Tension Experiment 2 (played by Jordan Rudess) that were not included in the original EP release.
