Pretty amazing, eh?

Very much so...I just have to get to like scarred and then I love every song on Awake.

I can't understand your dislike for Scarred. Its always been one of my all time favorite DT songs. Petrucci's solos are some of my favorites. Oh well, I'm going back to listening to Live After Death.

I just honestly haven't listened to it all that much.
can't say I dislike it, it's just never clicked with me.

Petrucci's first solo in Scarred :o

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion]Vote Portnoy...right now![/QUOTE]
Yep. I'm cheering for either Powell, Paice, Portnoy or Peart to win these thing. (What's with drummer's last names that start with P? Weird.)

You are right, scarred is great.

It was the first song I really liked off Awake. Still probably my favourite on the album.

[B]F[/B]UCK YEAH!

Watching that trailer really makes me want to get that DVD.

My DT CDs still haven't arrived :(

[QUOTE=Lord Abortion]Yeah, it's not bad, but it just hasn't got that...James :p

Hahaha, JP is starting to look like James Hetfield[/QUOTE]
Haha, I was thinking that yesterday.
He needs to ditch the slicked hair.

I just discovered that the problem with the missing drum fill yesterday was not a problem with the dvd, but with my software, it turned out the software was just skipping. I feel like a fool now :(

at least i can lay my mind to rest now.
and i would be really interested to hear the pink floyd covers, although it seems an odd choice to do considering that the style of playing is the polar opposite of what DT normally do. It will be very interesting to see how well they can tone down their playing.

Anyone else think that 6DoIT sounds as if its recorded live?

Well, there are a few of the songs on LATB, and they really helped me get into the studio ones; 6DOIT is now one of my favourite albums because of that.

Nice. That DVD looks unbelievable! Can anyone on here tell me the merits of the demo's sold on Ytsejam?

I just got Octavarium, SFAM, and I&W today! Just looking at them gives me a raging boner :p

Make sure you have a towel when you listen to them then.

Too late :( Boy, did I make a mess.

Oh god there's more coming.

Argh it's all going up the walls. Oh god this music is too awesome

NP: These 'Walls'

NP: The Answer Lies Within


:squirt:

From about 6:28 onwards in These Walls, I start to melt.

The end is just soooo good, the orchestral bits with riffage and stuff and ,fmaeokfjoauifhniufafhawey8rg8395t3875yhu8qfhrquiwhoir.

Oh man, I know the feeling! I feel just like this near the end of Learning To Live, when James sings the line, "It's what decides if you'll endure the pain that we all feel." God, I just wanna "fmaeokfjoauifhniufafhawey8rg8395t3875yhu8qfhrquiwhoir" every time I hear that!

Interesting.
Dream Theater are one of those bands who can make my hair stand on my back every time. Even if I know what's going to happen.

Happens for me too with DT, Radiohead and Muse.

The Tourist by Radiohead gets me everytime.

I feel the same; There are few bands that can do that, and DT are certainly one of them for me.

When James hits those high notes in Innocence Faded, it gets me everytime.

It's James' vocals that do that...ah man, I wish I could sing like him.
