Indeed. I was very impressed with Drama when I first heard it (2004-ish) and still am, but it's not as popular as some think. Is it really true that the US tour was pre-sold before it was even announced that Anderson and Wakeman had left?? The UK tour by that band was infamous- I heard Fish say on his radio show that the gig he saw on that tour was the most hostile he'd ever attended.
As for Tormato, it was by far their weakest up to that point but it sold well enough. The tour was a massive success, some fans feeling that was their all-time peak as a live act.
