DT own Megadeth at everything but heaviness (and riffs before someone says anything :p )
But it's all down to preference :)

I was just thinking about how it seems like how all the huge Megadeth fans are also huge DT fans just like myself. I guess it's true.

DT & Megadeth on Gigantour would've been perfect if it had come to England :(

Yup it was pretty much perfect. Especially with Symphony X too.:)

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]I always thought you didn't like DT...[/QUOTE]
Pfft, I love DT, I love Awake, mmm riffs :)

Yeah it has some great ones on it, like Lie :dribbles:

Indeed, if you look through the DT thread, talking about favourite pieces of work by DT Members or something similar.

Everything about Lie, is my favourite work by a member of DT (Obviously Petrucci, more so because of the solo, but the whole song kicks major ***).

Petrucci + Mustaine would be the **** imo, I just wish they would release their cover of Cemetary Gates...

I'd kill to hear that.

no waay. although i love some DT, i dont like the guitar tone. and also, having listened to DT alot, i still cant quickly recall any particular riff. they arent nearly as catchy as megadeth riffs, IMO.

IMO, Megadeth are a far, far better band. lyrically, they are better too. the Glass Prison lyrics seem annoyingly easy to write, to me. and as a prog band, i dont think DT have nearly as much character and feeling as Megadeth.

wow, that would be incredible. that would be extremely incredible. *slobbers*

Don't you remember?

When Gigantour was in, wherever Dimebag's from (Sorry, I don't think too much of him, I don't know where he's from), Dream Theater covered Cemetary Gates, and Mustaine played the solo... Someone said it would be released on DVD, but I'm still waiting.

Mike Portnoy's lyrics leave a lot to be desired. He wrote TGP. His best lyrics would be A Change of Seasons but overall, Petrucci is a better lyricist.

Chu: yeah, I heard about it but I've never seen or heard the actual song

I think they were planning a Gigantour dvd, but maybe that was cancelled in favour of Aresenal Of Megadeth?

Fix'd.

Learning To Live ftw;

maybe. or just simply delayed/postponed.

Myung doesn't write enough lyrics.


I sure hope there is a Gigantour DVD. Not doing it because of Arsenal would suck.

I got Arsenal yesaterday. Not watched it yet though...

I think Megadeth needs to release a DVD of something pre 97

[QUOTE=Chu]Fix'd.

Yup Myung is easily the best lyric writer in DT, Learning to Live has the best lyrics (in a DT song)

And the Gigantour DVD is meant to come out arond the start of Gigantour 2

BTW heres the site

84mins and 3 disks? Shouldn't it be just one?

No anthrax clips? Im kind of disapointed with that... I'll still get it anyway.

84 mins? Is that it from a huge concert like that?

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]84 mins? Is that it from a huge concert like that?[/QUOTE]


It does seem a bit short.

I wish there were a few more Megadeth, DT, Symphony X and Nevermore songs.

Does anyone know when Gigantour 2's line-up is going to be announced?

No Anthrax? hmmmm...

The Megadeth setlist isnt what I expected.

[QUOTE]84mins and 3 disks? Shouldn't it be just one?[/QUOTE]
3 disks is probably so the can separate the concert footage, back stage stuff and documentarys or something.

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]Yeah it has some great ones on it, like Lie :dribbles:[/QUOTE]
SFAM has some great riffs too...Home and Beyond this life especially.

NP-Tornado of souls.

I never used to appreciate the TOS solo, until now.
It's a masterpiece.
