I really love Mike in those days but i think that somewhere between Octavarium and Systemetic Chaos he lost his way. I was really disapointed when i learned that he left the band but i heard the ''dramatic turn of events'', i saw them live this summer and they are still awesome even without him.
Wow. This was the first album I heard form them, and when it was new, none the less (and I was barely a knee high at the time), and watching this now feels like watching old VHS tapes of my family around Christmas or something.
Oh my, how Youtube brings out the sub-human "life"forms with sub-human intelligence... you're welcome for the compliment. BTW I'M TALKING OUT LOUD OVER THIS VIDEO!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
@crivera88 you misused quotes genius. You will shut your whore fingers while MP is talking. MP has more talent in his pinky than you have in the fingers used to type your ignorant statement.
@Marioguitar I'm not sure of them all, but the ones I noticed are Ok Computer, Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Pink Floyd's the Wall and The Final Cut, although they are pretty much the obvious ones.
interesting to see Radiohead's Ok Computer in the inspiration corner....but i did get that kind of vibe in 'beyond this life' with the acoustic guitar part
Jorden Rudess is one of the greatest musicians in the world! He is definitely right at home in this great band. In fact I feel that their music is much deeper and multifaceted since he joined them. I'm not putting down the great work they did with Kevin Moore or Derek Sherinian. They are both outstanding players. It's just that Rudess brings a bit of that old carnivalesque funhouse vibe in from time to time. He plays with a wink if you get my drift. A masterful composer and performer. A genius.
Twinke, Twinkle Little Star is such an easy song. But when Jordan plays it at 4:48, he makes it a cool song that is physically impossible except if you are him or God.
@ironwolg Come on, mate, we all know that it doesn't take a DT album to end the world. Just takes Petrucci's shredding his guitar at 10 billion notes per second! (ending the world takes a little more than just killing the whole audience) :P
And plus to actually end the world Myung would have to actually be heard and appreciated in the mix, so I think we're safe haha. I love Myung, but he needs more volume in the tracks let me tell you.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I love watching Dream Theater in the studio... but live they're just not for me. I saw them at Graspop 09 and I'm pretty sure I made John Petrucci sad when he was looking in the crowd, saw me and I was looking almost angry. I felt totally bad, I should have made the best of it, but it was awful. Was anyone else there?
When I see this again after some time, I miss portnoy in dt :(
