did you just order it off amazon? cuz their prices are usually...iffy.

Amazon Marketplace... much cheaper.

aiite thanks. ima pick it up as well :] both CD and DVD

Is octavarium DT's last CD? im pretty sure it is, with all the references to past songs and references to circles (like how the last few seconds of Octavarium sound exactly like the beginning of The Root of All Evil, Labrie saying "Only to find I've come full circle"), and the "epic-ness" of Octavarium. Is it official? Because im pretty sure its the last.

[QUOTE=Obi One Kenodi]Yeah, and you get the video with the CD (at least I did, if you don't I'll send it to you.)[/QUOTE]
I didn't... could you send it to me please man?

what a coincidence, i just did the exact same thing last week

Nah it shouldn't be.

I hope not anyway.

the beginning of the root of all evil is also the end of in the name of god. just like the beginning of as i am is the end of six degrees of inner turbulence. and i think if i remember correctly the beginning of the glass prison is the end of finally free.

as for octavarium being epic, so was a change of seasons. and six degrees of inner turbulence. and i think the ending part of in the name of god is the most epic thing dream theater has ever written.

so no, i don't think it's their last.

plus, why would portnoy leave off after only seven steps of AA?

They're such great musicians, they'll go on like Maiden have.

So I just finnished listening to Octavarium for the first time. I must say...

WOW! That song is amazing.

I just don't completely understand what the song is about. Can anybody help.

There you go.[/QUOTE]

Never mind this explained it. Thanks.

I picked up Images and Words yesterday, it's pretty good, Petrucci is incredible. I'll post what I think of it later on, after I get a few proper listens in.

8vm is NOT their last CD. portnoy officially stated they're up for more albums.

would be sad if they closed their career with a mediocre-ish album like 8vm.

it's gross how good myung is.

and i have a question about the instrumedley multi-angle thing...i play it, but it's the exact smae camera angle as the regular concert footage. how do i change angles?

there should be an angle button on your dvd remote. i don't like the multi-angle thing. i think the budokan dvd was already edited just about perfect. the regular concert angles do it for me.

There is a button on most dvd remotes with a camera on it or something that says angle or something like that. You push it to change angles.

EDIT: Beat to it:upset:

does anyone have the guitar powertab file for "The Spirit Carries On"? i so wanna learn that song.

[QUOTE=shamed-angel]I didn't... could you send it to me please man?[/QUOTE]

Sure, whats your email?

So, will DT continue touring North America after their gig in NY?

^ that's what i REALLY wanna know...

that's the last gig for this particular tour. so...either we gotta wait for a new album or they'll be cool and do a 2nd octavarium leg...

[QUOTE=emo is so cool]does anyone have the guitar powertab file for "The Spirit Carries On"? i so wanna learn that song.[/QUOTE]

we've been asked not to distribute/share powertab files. but whatever guys :]

That would suck, I didnt go to gigantour beacause I didnt want to sit through 20 other band that I dont give a crap about while waiting for Dream Theater, plus they would probably play all the stuff off their new album instead of the classics.

But yeah, it would kick *** if they did "Evening With" tour in the US.

PS. I've read somewhere that MP was gonna post something tonight, what could it be?

Post something where?

[QUOTE=Blue Collar Man]Post something where?[/QUOTE]

On his website.

did anyone ever find what he supposedly posted on christmas morning at 6?

and ibanez, for gigantour, they actualy didnt play too much offof 8vm. but yea, setlists were really small :(
'twas still worth it. i spent $40 to see dream theater and half of megadeth. i'd spend much more than that...

I think I read somewhere that they're going to do about 10 albums.

The 3 CD Live Scenes was the first DT album I bought. :cool:

The first DT song i heard was 'In The Name Of God' and i didn't want to check any other songs out because i loved that song so much i couldn't stop listening to it, and if the other songs weren't as good i would lose my liking for them.
But after a while i checked out 'Images & Words' and my my i'm glad i did.

Pull Me Under was the song that got me into DT. That chorus and riffage is very hard to resist. :p

I heard Hell's Kitchen first and didn't like it much. A few months later I heard SOC and after that I loved them.

Liquid tension =]

Speaking of that, I got my LTE CDs yestersday :D

Ditto, looking back on it it's certainly not the greatest on I&W but one of DT's funnest songs!
