So turns out the version of As I Am I have been listening to for the past year+ isn't the real version (Although seriously, the lyrics are "As I Am!"), I got Live at Budoken, and the real version of As I Am (Obviously...), I can see what you guys mean about LaBrie trying to rap now, very bad effort on his side.

But still, this version of As I Am I have is pretty good, I definately thought it was Dream Theater (And still probably do!), so if anyone knows who does it, that could be cool....

My version is 3:34, starts off with some cool ambience, then breaks into crunching riff, with a sort of 'solo' or interlude coming off through guitar, then breaks into another 'solo' before the singer starts singing.
There's lots of cool guitar effects during the verse.... The singer tbh sounds a bit lower then LaBrie in parts (I always thought it was Portnoy :/)
There's a bass solo before the end (I always thought Myung :()

I actually prefer the guitar in this song to what I have heard from the Budoken As I Am.

Im not really sure, but I can give it a listen if you want.

NP: Endless Sacrifice

My guess would be Superior - Not With Me.

I can upload it, but where should I upload it to?

It's a very good song, and if the band who does this song has any more work like this, I can definately see a new favourite band!

I can listen to it and hopefully help you.

The file has been sent :)

It's probably by the same guys who did the version of This Dying Soul that I thought was the real thing for a while. Some guy posted who it actually was a little while back.

My god, lucky bastards.

It's annoying, I was trying to find the best set they played on the 8V tour, but all of them except about 3 had Panic Attack, Sacrificed Sons and Octavarium in them...ruins it.

I'd rather have SFAM played than Panic Attack and Octavarium.

Octavarium ruins it? Are you mad?!? Although I'm sure most people would prefer the whole of SFAM as a replacement.

[QUOTE=Happy]Have you tried selling them on Ebay?[/QUOTE]
no i haven't.

[QUOTE=Petrucci]no i haven't.[/QUOTE]
It's probably your best bet. Chances are very slim that anyone here will buy them.

Probably. I know MP is a huge fan of Muse.

That was for the second night in Sao Paulo, where instead of doing a classic album like DSOTM or MiJ like they have on this tour so far, they did SFAM. They played Octavarium and such the first night. :eng101:

the official DT site has the set lists for every show they have ever played...with the exception of a few here and there.

i'm already trying to figure out what my setlist will be when they come here :]
yea i'd rather hear SFAM in its entirety than 8vm, but why not both? as of right now, i would much rather have 8vm as the final encore than PMU/metropolis pt. 1

If they did Finally Free/Learning to Live/A Change of Seasons as an encore it would be beyond awesome.

That set list makes me wonder what songs they will play for the DVD.

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]That set list makes me wonder what songs they will play for the DVD.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, you're really lucky you're going. If the setlist is anything like Live Scenes From New York you'll get the concert of a lifetime.

I hope it is.

Waiting is driving me crazy. I think about it non-stop and I am loosing sleep because of it.

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]That set list makes me wonder what songs they will play for the DVD.[/QUOTE]

My guess is a standard song from every album like they've done on all the shows this tour from Majesty Demo ----->ToT
Something like:

The Glass Prison
(ToT song)
Another Won
A Fortune in Lies
UAGM
Caught in a Web
Lines in the Sand/Hell's Kitchen (heh I wish)
The Spirit Carries On
Losing Time/Grand Finale
----------
Octavarium(album)
----------
Some special finale

I would love to go to a Dream Theater concert, trouble is I don't think they like Australia

Yeah it'll probably be like that. I reckon it'll go in chronological order though.

Question; Gonna buy DT Album...


...Which?

[QUOTE=DuncMaster V2]Question; Gonna buy DT Album...


...Which?[/QUOTE]


In order of greatness:

1. Metropolis Scenes from a Memory
1. Awake
1. Images and Words
1. 6 Degrees of Inner Turbulence
1. Train of Thought
2. Ocatavarium
3. When Dream and Day Unite
4. Falling into Infinity

All the ones with the number 1 are tied for first (i cant decide). Since you like Opeth, I would say Train of Though.

Okay Cheers mate. I'll have a think. :thumb:
