            Well, back when the discog was in its infancy, I had submitted to
    me a CD called "Runes" (not the disc itself, but the info thereon for
    inclusion in the bootleg listing) and it said it was recorded in Ogden,
    Utah. Not having any reason to dispute it, I listed it as such. I don't
    know what bootleg CD maker puts out Runes though.

    I don't know if this info was posted here before, but I got a letter
    from the DT fanclub which is really interesting. Word by word:

    ""
    ...As for the band, they are currently writing and rehearsing for
    the new album. They met with a few producers last week, but they
    have not yet dediced who will produce the new album. I was lucky
    enough to hear some of the new material: One new song is a
    ten-minute epic very much in the DT tradition and another is an
    acoustic piece that might be part of a trilogy of sorts... ""

    What about Terry Brown? Didn't someone write that he was going to be
    the new producer? Damn! I certainly hope he gets to do the job.

            about Petrucci's wife:
                    About two years ago I bought an effects processor from a
    woman (Marleene) in an all female band. I picked it up at one of their
    practices. Rena, I think this is how this is spelled, was also in the band.
    Marleene forgot to bring the manual for the processor so I went to one of their
    show at the bond street cafe in NYC. The band, Meanstreak, plays music that
    is really heavy. They were very good. They used to be on some record label
    I think the title of the album was "roadkill" ( I saw it a long time ago in one
    of the metal mags.) They played the city a lot, or at least used to, and they
    have opened for Dream Theater in the past. They left that label because they
    didn't get much promotion. I don't know if they are signed now or not.
            Well at the show that I went to Rena's roadie was Petrucci, her
    boyfreind at the time. It was cool me and one of my friends got a chance to
    talk to him for a bit. He is a really cool guy. Rena is a pretty good
    guitarist. From what I remeber though she didn't play the same style as
    Petrucci, she played a more of a straight ahead metal type solo (at least
    campared to Petrucci.) The band doesn't (at least didnt' then) play progressive
    metal but if you are into heavier bands you will probably like them.

    This is all I know about her and her band. I hope this answers some of your
    questions.

    P.S. This seems to be one of the first posts that I written that prob won't
    start a flame war. :)

    See ya
