Rudess has done wonders for this band. I hate the people who dis him and say there is no way he could possibly fill the shoes for Moore... I really think if Moore were to come back he wouldn't be able to take Rudess' spot.

some ideas of this one should have been in scenes from a memory

Wasn't Falling Into Infinity planned to be a double album, but the label guys said 'no way'? Imagine if Metropolis pt 2 ended up as an instrumental on FII instead of being expanded to the SFAM album we know and love today? Would have made DT history very different.

[EvilSkeltos]

Funny the label guys probably heard this and were like "Faawk Nooo!" Lucky for us they produced "SFaM" themselves

@AfroBenevolence "'bout time guy", lol no actually, I wouldn't even know if he knows yet, though i'm sure he does.

I wonder what Kevin said when Mike Portnoy left Dream Theater...

I imagine that it would be very difficult to use the section from that starts at about 0:20 but i would, I think it's actually the best part of this piece if music and it's shame it's never gonna any further than this.

Someone down there said Moore is a prick. He quit a band when they were at the top of their game. He gave up everything to move to some small country and play keys to movies in a coffee shop. I can totally admire that. Call him a prick but that dude is waaay cooler than anyone else in DT.

@KyleJPie10 I love DT with Moore. That is real Dream Theatre to me but you are right, if Moore came back he wouldn't be able to play Rudesses parts...

@KornSOAD There's also a bit in a guitar solo in The Odyssey that sounds like the beginning of the guitar solo from Under A Glass Moon. I'm such a geek.

@stonedparyah Too bad this was written before Symphony X started writing music together. xD

Can anyone imagine if they had to play this live? It seems like it would be impossible for even Dream Theater.
