John Myung was brilliant as well. He has a very subdued stage presence and kinda gets lost in audio mix a bit, but that could've just been the sound in the venue.
James LaBrie was great when he was on stage...heh. DT's songs tend to get a bit long, with extended instrumental sections (as you know), so James fucks off for long periods of time. His range is truly impressive.
I'm usually not a big fan of keyboards, but Jordan Rudess won me over. He's a genius. Playing note for note with Petrucci and Myung, he's without a doubt one of the modern masters of the instrument.
Take it all in...soak it up. You won't forget this show ever.

if im not mistaken Rudess started TEACHING at age 12 or something. he was a prodigy.
LaBrie is basically only there for singing, so when they have their instrumentals he just goes in the back and does nothing.
