I used to be like that, then they kinda grew on me and now I'm obsessed.

i cant NOT pay attention when listening...it hooks me immediately.

i listen to chidlren of bodom and i gotta let it drone and just play through. i love CoB, but i just can't focus on it like i can w/ DT

I can focus with Dream Theater, since the first time I heard them, I loved the band.

Yeah, same here, I bought I&W without listening to them beforehand, first chords of PMU and my jaw dropped.

Hey PMU was their first song I listened, it was because of my cousin, he also love DT.

The Glass Prison was the first DT song I listened to :cool:

The first i listened to was Home i think.

mine was Overture 1928. it was my first taste of virtuoso keyboard.

i thought it was space music or something, considering i was half-asleep at the time

The first song I heard was PMU, but it didn't make me look further into the band. It wasn't until The JoZ shared The Glass Prison with all the members of the Tool thread a long time ago that I really looked into them. Now I have the whole discography.

PMU was the first for me too, what movie whas that from? (if it was from one)

Erotomania was my first, but I once heard the intro to Metropolis Part 1 played at an NBA game back in the day.

Thats because that intro is awesome.

PMU was my first, after that I went into a big phase of not liking DT, but then I got smart and came around.

DT= awesome.
Alot of people hate the singing, he's my favorite singer hah.
I guess it kinda has to grow on you.

the first song i heard of dream theater was.....the dance of eternity. i have reason to believe that's their best instrumental, although they're all good.

what's everyones fav. dt album? i'd have to say mine's either scenes from a memory, 6 degrees of inner turbulence, or train of thought.

My top 3 would be

1. Images and Words
2. Awake
3. Scenes From A Memory

[QUOTE=eug008]My top 3 would be

1. Images and Words
2. Awake
3. Scenes From A Memory[/QUOTE]

Mine too, but switch 2 and 3.:thumb:

My first song was Regression/Overture 1928, seeing as my first album was Scenes From A Memory I believe. Awesome stuff. Hooked straight away.

Hey Chad.

Don't take the other day as an offensive attack at you, I was just trying to work out why?

Can you tell me why?

Do you just like the negative reaction it causes, or what?

Top 3=

1.Images and Words
2. Scenes from a memory
3. It's a tie between Falling into infinity and 6 Degrees of inner Turbulence.

Nah, I was asking why you keep coming back?

I don't get the big deal with I&W. I'd take 6DOIT, SFAM, and even 8v over it any day.

My top 3, as of now are:

1. I&W
2. 8v
3. Scenes from a Memory

My top 3 of all time:

1. Scenes from a Memory
2. I&W
3. Train of Thought

The first time i ever heard DT was when someone had it on their mp3 player years back and i took a quick listen, it just so happened to be on the kickass solo near the middle of erotomania. I forgot about the band for a long time then decided to listen to them one day and downloaded [I]Dont look past me[/I] and i absolutely loved it, but for a long time i was convinced it was the glass prison because thats what the file was labeled as.

The new DVD is almost here. I can't wait for it much longer.

I wish it'd come earlier so i can actually buy it the same day it comes out.

My top 3:

1. ToT
2. I&W
3. Awake

Ah so thats the song that I had been listening to a while ago :lol: (Same thing happened to me). Am I the only one who likes Awake here?

Awake > * imo.

Such a good album, from everyone involved. (Specially Petrucci :p)

Nah man I love Awake. Infact I've been giving it a few fun throughs lately. Absolutely love it. Voices is becoming a quick favourite.

Top 3:
1. Images and Words
2. Octavarium
3. SDoIT

You tap it? I find that doing hammer ons is faster. Maybe its just me....

Yeah i tend to do hammer ons instead, tapping seems like a cooler way to do it but unnecissarily harder maybe.

I'm talking bout bass.

Maybe, I always found tapping faster and easier.
