Yet it still managed to win a grammy :confused:
It is quite simply awful.

isnt' this a DT thread?

well, just to conform and jump on the bandwagon..

metallica was actually one of my favorite bands. and then i found dream theater. i don't think i've listened to a full metallica album or even song all the way through in months...

if anyone's got info on this new DVD for release, holler cuz im sure all of us would like to get our filthy hands on this sure-to-be gem :]

and a question...

8vm is the only album they used an actual orchestra correct?
i swear there are some parts in songs like 6DOIT (overture especially) and vacant (the cello) where the strings sound authentic. i mean, i know technology is awesome, but no technology can truly emulate the tone and variation in vibrato speed/color.

I love early Metallica stuff, including the black album. I think their newer stuff is ok, but not great. Escpecially St. Anger.

Anyone know where I can get a non-SFAM shirt?

I'll have to Ebay it...

[QUOTE=red barchetta]the thing is, not even the biggest metallica fanboys thought that st. anger was good :p[/QUOTE]

Actually, the album was fantastic except for one GLARING thing that ruined the entire album and everything good about it: the production quality. Otherwise it was a solid release.

Ride The Lightning > No Life 'Til Leather > Kill 'em All > Master ...

But they're all equally amazing albums ...

I know a real cellist is used on Vacant. I'm not sure about when a full orchestra has been used, but I have a feeling there could also be one on Finally Free.

When I checked on Ebay, there were quite a few TOT tour shirts. And some I&W shirts...nice.

6doit uses an actual orchestra too, it was conducted by mr. Ruddes.
and the Cello on vacant is authentical too.

and of course can't forget the sax on Another Day (not an orchestra but still awesome)

I always pictured it as a woman playing the sax but it was a bloke.

[QUOTE=scenesfromatheater]Ain't it one of those Clarinet things?[/QUOTE]
clarinets have a lower sound.

It says in the booklet Saxaphone on Another Day played by some dude. Not exact wording.

Bugger, I just lent mine out to a Mate, in an attempt to get him to love DT, so I can't check.

He better like 'em ...or else...

Tell him yourself, he's [I]Shadow_Stalker[/I] on here...

I lent mine out for about 4 days. It was a sad 4 days for me.

I have it on my comp and minidisk...I'll cope, right?

got all my DT on my iPod nano :] they suck...4GB only. DT takes up a good chunk of it.

where do you get smileys? been awhile since i've been here.

I'm getting a 20GB creative Zen for Christmas, DT will be one of the first things on there :D

I need an MP3 player. The last one I got angry at and broke.

P.S. Thanks for the rep Ollie.

No they don't they are higher than saxaphones.

The guy who plays it is called Berlinger or something I think.

i swear they don't...

depends on what type of sax you're talking about though. alto saxs have a much higher sound than clarinets

Suprano, alto, tenor, baritone...who gives a jefferys anyway?

Jay Beckenstein. It says on the Live in Tokyo DVD. And in the album.
