Its The Ultimate Dream Theater Nerd Test

I finished it, then I clicked next and it just froze and firefox had to shut down...

I got 51%

Whoa, I got 58% and mine was pretty much all guesses (Although some answers you could easily cross off...)

A lot of those questions were borderline-opinion questions.

I got 93%.

55%

alot of guesswork

[QUOTE=Demonhunter]I got 93%.[/QUOTE]

holy smokes, highest one I got was 70%.
what the hell is llama?

43% on that test :(. I guess i'm not cool enough to be a DT fan.

hmm, it appears im a wannabe scoring 30% lol. oh well, im just started to get into the band anyway, A "llama" is: an animal lol

The glass prison was the song that got me into the band.

I got a 52% on the quiz.

Isn't Portnoy considered a llama because he constantly spits when they play live?

oooooooooooooooh! I get it now. :D

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]oooooooooooooooh! I get it now. :D[/QUOTE]


Thats also why Petrucci built a plexi glass case around his amps. He didnt want Portnoy's spit on his amps.

I just found out that DT is originally from Huntington, NY. That is about 15 minutes from me. I dont think they still live there though. I was pretty excited when I found out.

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]What, me living close to DT hometown, or Petrucci's protective plexi glass?[/QUOTE]
Petruccis glass.

Thats cool about where you live to though.

What about JM question? Was he a highschool buddy with Portnoy or did he met him at Berklee?

I got 78%, a Majestic Nerd. Some of the questions in the quiz were a bit stupid though.

[QUOTE=IbanezSamurai]What about JM question? Was he a highschool buddy with Portnoy or did he met him at Berklee?[/QUOTE]

They grew up in the same town, so Im guessing High School.

I dont know if this has been discussed, but the G3 DVD come out on the 25th. As you may or may not know, it features Vai, Satriani, and of cousre, John Petrucci.

Here is the link if you are interested. You can order the DVD and CD from the site.

Blast it!

I want a wallpaper...:p

So did I! The few I found that were 1280 x 1024 had no sources though :(

There's a lot of great DT wallpapers around. Try [URL="http://www.trialoftears.net/main.html"]http://www.trialoftears.net/main.html[/URL]

There was another one that was awesome (dt-x.com I think) but it appears to be down now.

Yeah, that dt-x.com one is what google advertises, has HEAPS of good looking wallpapers in my opinion.

I ended up with some Train of Thought wallpaper from [url=http://www.trialoftears.net/main.html]trialoftears.net[/url]. (The only one which didn't show all the members, I just wanted a picture that said Dream Theater)

I got the surrounded one...:cool:

i had a 'this dying soul' wallpaper a few months back

Awesome! :p

Ah, As I am's main solo kicks you in the balls like a steel toecap, the filling after that is brilliant too...

Maybe I'm mistaken and all, but is Portnoy not refferred to as the Camel?

I'm positive Petrucci calls him Mike the Camel on the Budokan DVD.

/me goes to check it out.

No wonder Jones Beach got such a good setlist...DT must have paid tribute to their home state. :wave:

That's me. :D

I love the part in the As I Am solo where he starts playing the triplets (I think they're triplets) really fast, and then slowly bends up the string. Gives me the chills. And depresses me, knowing I'll never be able to do that. :upset:

So I checked it out and it is the Camel.

No wonder I got so many wrong. :p

I got 60 something percent.
