With all this talk about getting DTers to listen to FW, I have to add that for
me FW introduced me to DT. I saw the video for Different Eyes from the Perfect
Symmetry album on the Headbangers Ball and was blown away by the vocals and the
duel guitar work. I went out and bought the CD and listened to it over and over.
I thought these guys were great, so while reading the liner notes, I noticed
that they mentioned bands that were friends of theirs (DT being one of them). So
I went out to locate a DT album (figuring that they must be in the same league
as FW). Nobody in my area (Southern California) had heard of them. I was
bummed...I finally talked to a guy in a small import shop who knew about them
and said that they had a CD that was not released in the US (WDADU). So I
ordered it. It took quite a few months to get it, and by that time PMU began
playing on the radio (and I knew I had to get it). So I bought I&W when it came
out (and my order for WDADU cam e in shortly after that). Anyway, just wanted to
say that DT and FW are both superb bands in their own unique styles and that you
really can't compare them side by side.

A few things I want to shout about:
- Who needs a backstage pass? I met them with ease without one.
All I did was go by their bus after the show and wait around.
Eventually they came out the backstage door and stood around for
about 45 minutes talking with fans and signing stuff. If you can
find the hotel they're staying at (if they stay overnight in the
city) so much the better. I found Rush's hotel in Milwaukee by
calling and seeing if their lighting director was checked in.
The musical artists themselves usually check in under false
names. It just so happens though that Rush put themselves up in
a more luxurious hotel than where their road crew stays, so I
ended up at the wrong hotel...but I doubt DT do that. Rush were
at the road crew hotel the night before though. They drank at
the the bar all night. Sex on the Beaches are what they drank and
later on they went and bought a basketball at the local mall and
screwed around in the lobby with it.
- I work at a Media Play. If WDADU isn't in the imports section,
we can special order it for 3 dollars down towards the purchase
price. We also have or can get the UK Lie CD single and we
should be able to get the new Silent Man one as well. Special
orders take 10 to 14 days. Before any DT fan lurks about for
other prog rock, make sure WDADU is in your possession. (IMHO...
it's one of the finest prog albums of the 80's)
- To Trey: Yes, Mtv did play FW videos on the Ball. I remember
seeing "Eye to Eye" many, many times. I also remember seeing
Perfect Symmetry stuff but nothing from the latest one.
- On a Rush related note to any traders, there's a fake Caress
of Steel show floating out and about. Some guy put together all
the CoS songs off the 6/4/77 London tape and spread it around.
I have yet to see/hear a real CoS show. (Been looking for many moons
for one)
- Queensryche fans rejoice! I got the new Modern Drummer with
Rockenfield on the cover. He said the US tour will have no
opening act and will be "An Evening with Queensryche." (Similar
to what Yes and Metallica have done in recent years) They will
play all of Promisedland and I suspect a lot of older stuff as
well. I reckon it'll be about a 3 hour show.

I most certainly won't back you up. I had the extreme (sorry) pleasure of
seeing them headline the Riviera here in Chicago during the III Sides tour.
I didn't find any of the band's soloing to be self indulgent. One of the
coolest
moments of any show I've ever seen was when their horn section got in a
circle around Nuno, and traded licks with him. Extreme is one of the most
solid
live bands I've ever seen--along with DT, Queensryche, and Rush.
In addition, III Sides is by far the weakest album Extreme has done. Even
the first
album is better. Pornograffiti is their true masterpiece. I'm waiting
(with some
trepidation) for the new album 'Waiting for the Punchline', and hoping that
it will
bring them back stylistically to their heavier days.
**stepping down from my soapbox**
Well, alright then! All the talk of the new boot 'Kick Into A Dream' has really
got me salivating. Now if I can just find it!

I have been listening to Rush for a long time...and I found it interesting
what people who listen to both bands think about the two groups...
personal opinion: They are all good, and I haven't heard a rotten album
yet...
The question of the week is:
(: from the discussion (for the humor unimpaired :) on

For Rush and DT Fans:
If Rush and DT came out with a new album on the same day and you only had
enough money for one, which one would you get and why?

I had been looking for a Magellan album ever since I heard all you guys
rave about them and today I found "Impending Ascension". I would just like
to say that it totally blew me away! There have only been three other bands
that when I first heard them blew me away:
Rush, Dream Theater, and Pantera. But this stuff is great. I could not
believe they had it because I have been looking for it for some time.
This music is like a really up beat Marillion with a little Yes in it.
It is really great "happy" music. It is also very very progressive. There
songs have more changes than . . . . . . . Something that changes a
lot. I highly recommend it to anyone that can find a copy. ....... Hell I
recommend it to those of you who can't find it!
Now I have a question. Is there first album as good because if so I will
probably hunt it down!

Hello DT Sisters (oops and Brothers, I guess). I was wondering
if there are any lyricists on this krazy list? I am interested
in communicating (via private email of course) with anyone who
writes song lyrics especially if they are anything like those of
Dream Theater. I write prose-poems which become songs and I
worship Petrucci's lyrics. Voices gets to me every one of the 1000 times
that I listen to it. So any writers out there? Somewhere? Please!?

My .02:
FW:
Thanks to The Doc and others who are trying to help us out on
Fates - I also started with Parallels and am struggling to get
into it (I swear Mike was writing just what I was thinking...).
The whole episode reminds me a bit of a friend who had similar
difficulty with Savatage - but now loves them. Anyway, I'll get
Perfect Symmetry or No Exit and keep trying!
Age:
Congrats to the guys who are 42 for winning the age thing. :)
I'm 34 and I knew I wouldn't "win" - I've seen quite a diversity
of ages at DT shows (WDADU and I&W tours); much more so than
other "young" bands.
DT Nerds:
About the Ytsejammer - cerebral thinker/college student/engineer
similarities - I'm an engineer (aerospace) as well, (now in
flight operations). IMO, the connection between "educated/
college/engineer"-types and this forum is more a function of
Net/WWW access and an interest in computers and technology than
anything else. Like age, the diversity I've seen at shows has
been extensive.
[Hmm...to be fair, I should point out that I probably don't fit
the typical "NASA engineer nerd" type - I've had long hair and
played guitar in several rock bands (nothing major) since the
mid-70's.] Whatever...
Rush:
I probably tend to favor the earlier stuff more than most of you,
but I would recommend "must haves" as:
Moving Pictures
Permanent Waves
2112
A Farewell to Kings.
*Several* other albums come in a close second, including the last
album, Counterparts.

Dunno. I don't think much of their Majesty-era stuff. Most of the
album material is really very choice.
Of the three studio albums' worth of material, the worst song
imho would have to be either Afterlife or Innocence Faded. Afterlife is
excellent musically (including the vocal work) but the lyrics themselves
are painfully shallow and forced. Innocence Faded is DT's best attempt at
becoming Winger... only the AWESOME jam at the end makes it albumworthy.

It's a blessing in disguise. Now they have made Primetime longer
and put more "just videos" hours in during the day, since the
cancellation of some of their lamer "shows". I find more and more rock
within them now that HBB is gone. Besides, HBB was getting to the point
where it was just a synposis of the day's dose of Offspring and NIN.
Last night on MTV-normal (ordinary video time) they played
Queensryche (Bridge), VH (DTMWLCD), Danzig (Cantspeak), Megadeth (Train),
and, surprise surprise, Lie. All of this mixed in with the usual HEAVY
exposure to Live, Offspring, STP, Soundgarden, and then all of the shit
rap and pop groups.

The only one I don't like is Another Day, and sometimes I even like that.
When it's in it's proper place, for example, right before the Killing Hand.
Whenever I hear Another Day and it's followed by something other than
Another Hand, I get really disappointed. sigh. Other than that, Afterlife
doesn't really thrill me. Don't much care for the lyrics. The solos are
good but kind of stereotypical.
On the other hand, I *love* Innocence Faded.

Um, pardon me if I ask, but who exactly are you talking about here?
It seems unclear to me.

Well... I'm really disappointed that John didn't know
Valley Arts.
Since a year ago Valley Arts makes the best guitar on the
all world: the STEVE LUKATHER sign model.
My best friend bought this guitar and It's really the best
(and of course expansive) guitar I've used.
EMGpickups, all handwork...
BTW now Valley Arts was not the same.
Samick bought the small Valley Factory and now there isn't
anymore the Lukather model (Now Steve is endoorsed by MUSIC MAN)

Hello, Jammers, I have a question that I feel certain one or many of you
could answer. I recently traded for a live DT show that was nameless,
save the date and place: Long Island, NY 10/4/92. I don't know if it's
"Live in Long Island" or "Home Sweet Home", though I feel certain it's
one of them. Here's the set list:
1. Metropolis 6. The Ytse Jam
2. Under a Glass Moon 7. Guitar Solo
3. Only a Matter of Time 8. Another Day
4. Surrounded 9. The Killing Hand
5. Pull Me Under
The main reason I suspect that it's "Home Sweet Home" is that James says
those very words after (I think) Metropolis. Anyway, can anyone help me out?
Thanks in advance! :)

I don't know if DT really have a "worst" song, since all of their music
is incredible, but I'd have to say that "Lie" is their least incredible
song, IMHO.

If you're one of the lucky bastards going to the covers show, then skip
this message so you'll be surprised.
Or if you just don't wanna know any of the songs they are playing, then
skip it, too.

Hope that's enough.
Anyway, I have just learned from a reputable source that one of the
cover's they are doing is "Tears" from Rush. Also an Iron Maiden song
which 'might' be "Iron Maiden" an instrumental. I'm not sure on that one,
but "Tears" seems pretty definite.
I really hope they do something like this in the states.

Message-ID: <950127222936_1627478@aol.com>
I noticed a musical theme repetition that I don't think anyone here has
discussed. The vocal melody in Innocence Faded at 2:11 to 2:20 is repeated
with the keyboards in Erotomania at 2:38, which then continues with the theme
changing slightly. I am interested if many of you think this is deliberate.
On another note, has anyone listened to music by Tuck and Patti? They mostly
do covers and they don't sound anything like DT really. They are a husband
and wife acustic guitar and vocal duo. All of their soungs feature
remarkable guitar work which I think many DT fans would like. Perhaps their
best known song is a rendition of Hendrix's Little Wing and another song
which the name excapes me at the moment (the CD is in my car).
Also, I took a bunch of photographs of The Dream Theater in Monterey, however
I am waiting to finish up the roll before I send it in, so it will be a bit
longer untill I can get the images on the net.
