[QUOTE=suspended_animation]Man DREAM THEATER RULEZ! I've heard about them 2 or 3 years ago but couldn't get anything to them, but 2 months ago (On 10/8/05) I got their COMPLETE ALBUMS on a MP3 CD !-hey I got their albums as mp3 coz I live in Iraq :upset: , and here everything is pirated :D !- man they rulez, they became my 2nd favorite band after (Metallica), also John Petrucci's (Suspended Animation) Rocks. my favorite songs to DT are: Pull Me Under, Another Day, Wait For Sleep, Home, Fatal Tragedy and ALL (TOT) songs. :thumb:[/QUOTE]


excellent, suspended animation ****ing rocks but, please, dont say, rulez, rules!!

Just wondering, has anyone here heard any Circus Maximus, and if so, what did they think?

I think they sound heaps like Dream Theater (Especially their drummer!), and they have a decent singer. They're also more Metal based from what I picked up too (Which isn't always a good thing, but meh).

[QUOTE=Chu]You haven't heard The Glass Prison, or A Change of Seasons, have you?

Some could say a few songs on Octavarium are a bit heavier too.[/QUOTE]
I reallyt should listen to the non- ballads on that album eh? :p

[QUOTE=Med57]I got the impression that they meant something like their [i]Master Of Puppets[/i] album cover, although if I was seeing them live, I'd be more pleased with seeing them do [i]Scenes From A Memory[/i] in its entirety than anything else. I saw rumors that the classic album might be a Rush album, which would be pretty cool as well. I wouldn't want to see them cover DSOTM though. I don't think it would work that well. :-\[/QUOTE]

Seeing them doing Rush would be great. The really fit their style. I'm pretty sure Rush was one of the biggest influences on Dream Theater (Neil Peart definitly inspired Mike Portney.)

I've only heard YYZ(and it is awsome) by rush so I wouldn't really want to see that myself, but I would prefer it to Floyd

Download 2112 ASAP, or I can upload it. I prefer Floyd to Rush, but they just don't fit each other. Petrucci and Gilmour are about as oppisite on the spectrum of guitar gods as any two men can be...

I got my SFAM shirt through in the mail today :cool:.

hmmm... is that a long sleeved shirt by any chance?

No. But I did buy it for $12 : Double cool:.

I've got 5 Rush albums on my computer but I've never had the time to listen to them :naughty:

listen to them NOW.

Will do

[QUOTE=Med57]
I imagine so...didn't they play [i]Master Of Puppets[/i] 3 times on the same tour, and not cover any other classic album on tour?[/QUOTE]


Didnt they do The Number of the Beast also.

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]Didnt they do The Number of the Beast also.[/QUOTE]

Yes I think they did do them both on the 6DOIT tour. And on the ToT tour they did both Number of the Beast and Fragile by Yes. But I reckon it is more than likely we'll be seeing Floyd in London, they might do something different if there is chance while they're in South America on the next leg of the tour.

I got that Budokan DVD today, pretty good show. In The Name Of God was played so awesome... that little improvising Petrucci does at the end was wicked.

That is an amazing DVD. The production is amazing...I wish they played Metropolis or the glass prison though.

Yeah.. I really wanted to see The Glass Prison... oh well.

what was John thinking? Was this outfit supposed to make him look more heavy metal?

He's gone metal. :D

If he really wanted to be metal he'd have gotten a sig guitar that didn't look gay.

I think its a pretty decent looking guitar.

The headstock looks terrible.

Yeah, I'll give you that.

And he wouldn't hold it so high :lol:

I think he's watched Edward Scissorhands too many times :o

He looks pretty cool, IMO

I'm wearing my SFAM shirt right now :cool:.

[QUOTE=Creeping_Deth]I'm wearing my SFAM shirt right now :cool:.[/QUOTE]

Hehe, I have my ToT shirt on, such a cool shirt :cool:

Yeah, we're both pretty cool :cool:.

[QUOTE=pizzapie88]And he wouldn't hold it so high :lol:[/QUOTE]
What the hell's wrong with playing a guitar high up, I'd rather him have it high and play well than have it low and look metal and mess up.
