WOW!!
Thank you Dream Theater. Once again, you have topped yourselves. Where you
go from here, I have no idea.
Oh, that's right...................Japan.
And then, after that, BACK TO THE U.S. THIS SUMMER!!
I know, it's old news, but it's GOOD news......hehe
I'll probably screw up the set list, so I'll let someone else handle that.
The sound at the 9:30 Club was EXCELLENT. As soon as they blasted into The
Glass Prison, DCJoe turns to me and says "Wow, nice mix!" And it stayed
that way all night. Kudos to the sound engineers(though I do still have a
SLIGHT ringing in my ears. Probably should have kept the earplugs fully
inserted, but the sound was too sweet to muffle....... :)
Anyway, I just wanted to be the first(on here, anyway) to say many thanks to
the guys for a phenomenal show.
WOW!!
Kez, suffering from Tourbelence.........................and loving it.
P.S. Special thanks to DCJoe and Iman for being cool buds. Let's do it
again soon! Oh, and Joe, nice voice.......seriously.
I hope I didn't throw you off too badly with my warbling and
cracking impersonation of singing..........It was so cool to be
next to someone else that sings with all their might during every tune.
What a great time...........

Jordan played his solo (a.k.a. "pee-break") right before LitS, but, beyond
that, the list looks about right.
A very cool show. If I had any complaints with the setlist, it'd have to
be the inclusion of the entirety of SDOIT. There's parts of that epic that
just don't hold my interest. I'd rather have seen 45 minutes of other
songs, maybe including some highlights of SDOIT rather than the whole thing
-- I assume that's what they'll do next tour. Highlights: Another Hand/The
Killing Hand, LSoaD, and Fatal Tragedy. And James was indeed "on" for the
most part.
My chief complaint lies with the venue employees. They had pairs of people
manning the doors as you entered. As I was getting padded down by one, the
other asked me for my ticket. My hands were in the friggin' air above my
head! I said as much to the girl and she responded with "well, most people
have their tickets ready when they get to the door." I didn't bother
arguing over the logic of that statement with her. Later on, during the
show, I felt a tap on my shoulder. Looked around and there was some venue
employee, who asked me, shouting over the music, to sit down so that the
people behind me could see. Now, I am a tad over 6'3", but...I was
standing in front of a pole! There was nobody directly behind me, nor
could there be. Even more ridiculous, the entire audience was standing up,
so, presumably to change this, the guy went on to speak to the people in
the aisle seats of the next several rows. None of them sat down either.

Yeah, I know he was moving it to his own server to eliminate some
of the bandwidth costs (I would hate to have to pay for hosting of
that site considering the traffic it gets). I am sure he'll have it
back up soon.

It's still there according to my browser... perhaps it was a hiccup?

Ok, I was a little premature(so what else is new??).
The forum has already been switched over to ma's server, and that's when the REAL problems began. He's wiping the entire database clean tonight, to see if he can get it running smoothly again.
I'll cross my fingers.

Anyone know where you can download the MP3's that were on Lines in the Sand (dreamtheater.mit.edu) since that site doesn't look like it'll be coming back up any time soon.

Hi Elisa,
That other drummer jamming with Mike on the double-assed monster kit was Mike Mangini. He played on Extreme's last album "Waiting for the Punchline" and has been in Steve Vai's touring band for a while. Probably has a lot of other credits that I'm not thinking of right now.
He looked like a kid in a candy store up there with Mike!
cheers, -Neil.

Umm ... I have been pretty inactive in the last few weeks. I take it this is for the band Superior.
Where's your web page, man?? Not even a week ago I went around the net looking to see how your new CD was coming along. I found a web page, but it wasn't very informative.
