I get tired just watching them hammer away non stop.
Pretty darn good band.

Okay, I was responding to Dave and I hit a key on my keyboard accidentally and my post disappeared. I don't know what I hit, but if an incomplete post by me shows up somewhere, you'll know why.

Lets try this again....

Considering that I only discovered Dream Theater as a result of this board which I have only been hanging around for a year (Happy Anniversary to me!), I've put together a pretty good collection. I still have a few holes to fill, but it is definately the most purchased band for me this year.

I had the pleasure of seeing Dream Theater this past summer. They played a show with Queensryche and Fates Warning. They were amazing. I am soooooo hoping that they tour to promote the new CD and find their way back here. I will definately be there if they do.

BarryL lent me the DVD. In fact, I haven't yet returned it. I hope that he isn't looking for it. It was great. I'll have to get my own copy (gift hint here Barry). I also noticed how long they could play without taking a breather. My fingers hurt after about 45 minutes on my guitar! I liked the little video inserts. I thought that they did a good job of helping to tell the story.
