==Concert==
In November 2011, after performing a series of special Devin Townsend Project shows, Devin Townsend revealed his plan to perform a one-off concert in London, England, that would cover his musical career from mid-1990s up to that point.〔 Townsend stated that he wanted to create a "more than musical" show which included a storyline, multiple performers and special effects.〔 Later he said that the concert would be recorded for future release.〔Townsend, Devin (October 9, 2012). (The Retinal Circus on DVD and Blu-ray, scheduled release Q2/2013 ). ''Facebook''.〕
The concert lasted approximately three hours, and it was divided into two parts, with an intermission in between.〔(The Retinal Circus setlist ). ''Setlist.fm''. November 1, 2012.〕 The band consisted of the same personnel as the recent years' Devin Townsend Project line-up, and the special guests were Anneke van Giersbergen and Jed Simon, with Steve Vai hosting the show via pre-recorded video projected onto screens. The setlist was focused heavily on material from ''Epicloud'' and a few other albums from Townsend's catalogue; the setlist included no songs from ''Terria'', ''Accelerated Evolution'', ''Ki'' and ''Ghost''. Townsend also performed, against his current principles,〔Hammer, Dan (May 22, 2007). (Why No More Strapping Young Lad ). ''Metal Hammer''.〕 two Strapping Young Lad songs. He later stated that this was because of the career-spanning nature of the concert, and playing those two songs was a "closure for him and Strapping Young Lad".〔(Devin Townsend's Twitter ). October 28, 2012.〕 He also wanted to "respect the legacy of the band" and to reconnect and perform again with Jed Simon.〔Bansal, Aniruddh (August 26, 2013). (Devin Townsend has no interest in Strapping Young Lad reunion ). ''Blabbermouth.net''.〕
The concert was one of the most prepared Devin Townsend shows ever, with over a year of pre-production, and it was recorded in high definition with a higher budget and a more professional approach to production than the previous live release, ''By a Thread''.〔 5000 people saw the sold out performance, and the concert was also streamed live through Livemusicstage.com.〔(Sold out Retinal Circus extravaganza live online at Livemusicstage.com ).
