dude take the time is ROUGH.
good luck, i haven't had much luck w/ it and it's my favorite DT song right now besides blind faith.

then again, i never realyls it down and just...practice practice practice. i'm completely self-taught and i haven't ever done actual scale work, finger-strength training, picking exercises etc. i just...jumped into it

prolly not the best approach

I tried learning Take The Time but after i saw the 4.34 solo I gave up. The rest I could probably play but that is just whoa

yea the middle solo w/ the guitar/keyboard dual lead is a beast. a lot fo finger stretching, weird intervals and some string skipping...

the ending solo is MUCH more manageable.

I was put down by take the time. I even found the start hard when the guitar kicks in.

I'll try it again though.

i like the funky riff half way through on TTT, especially on the Live In Tokyo DVD when they pause halfway through and MP just nods and they all come back in.

those riffs aren't bad the rhythm might be tricky for the riff in the middle.
the dual guitar/key lead is still the worst...

keep at it flower dance/happy it ain't too bad.

I want to play Metropolis, but now I am dealing up with Black Diamond-Stratovarius (Ihave to play all the keyboard lines on the guitar), when I finish with the solos which is what I miss i'll start for DT. Element of LED 435, good luck man!!!

metropolis...im not even gonna attempt it yet.
my ultimate goal is to be able to play glasgow kiss :]

That's a great song from the master Petrucci.

I have to make a homeword about Progressive metal, I already know many things about it, but if you can give me some links for getting deeper into it, I'll be very thankfull.:)

Glasgow kiss is REALLY tough for me, i'm not even talking about the solos and stuff just the main rhythm part (alt picking).
It's really hard to do clean.

Glasglow Kiss is one awsome song tho

I had huge timing issues with the start of the song, i felt like such a muppet because on paper it seems so much easier.

haha a muppet? petrucci tooling you?

it's in a fast 4 right? 12/8 if i remember correcgtly, with the occasional switch into 6/4 and a 7/8.

Live in Tokyo DVD?

Is this a one that isn't widely available?

Oh, and anyone who got World Tourbulence from the Daily upload last week and wants to send me it, they can get some e-sex from me for it:)
The links expired. Megaupload if you can, but not Rapidshare, my computer hates it.

I'm uploading Acoustic dreams, so put your emails down for it, kids.

I got World Turbulence. Would YSI be ok? That's easiest for me.


EDIT: Or if you have AIM that'd be great.

Yeah, either or.
My AIM is Lordollie6

Is wrold Turbulance a Fan Club CD? Is Acoustic Dreams?

[email]egg_knight@hotmail.com[/email]

I'll wait until everyone gets them down, then I'll send it out.
Acoustic dreams is just a load of random acoustic bootleg tracks, and WT is a bootleg from the 6DOIT tour.

Has anyone else noticed that part in "This Dying Soul" around 7:10 that sounds very similar to "Blackened" by Metallica? I thought it was a pretty neat little reference to their influences.

Yeah, you also note that they talk about it alot in DVD commentaries...JP will say "This is the Floyd like section", which is cool, really.

Could someone who gets the Daily Upload and has some of the older emails with some DT in them send me some links to the albums?

I accidently deleted some emails with some DT I had meant to download. All I have is today's issue with [I]Six Degrees[/I] in it. It would be very much appreciated :)
