Dream Theatre

JenRN · 02-29-2004, 04:29 PM

Anyone familiar with them?

Dogstar · 02-29-2004, 04:33 PM

I've heard one album by them. They're good musicians, but I can't get into their stuff. I don't know why, it just doesn't do anything for me.

2 of their albums I have heard are tolerable, but I have heard that others aren't really that great. I have heard from numerous people that if you like Evergrey, you'll like Dream Theater, but I haven't given them a listen yet.

Dogstar · 02-29-2004, 05:04 PM

Wow, really? They seem so different from each other. I like Evergrey, but not Dream Theater.

hotforscott · 02-29-2004, 06:02 PM

I know, EVERY magazine or review I have read they compare the 2, but I don't think from what I have heard about Dream Theater that I will think they are anywhere close to the same. I guess it's all a matter of opinion and mine is usually out of the norm....LOL!

Hahah, me, too. I'll have to borrow my friend's DT CD and compare them to Evergrey. I haven't heard DT in a long time, so maybe my memory of them is fading, but to me they seem more prog rock, while Evergrey is more straight-ahead anthemic rock.

hotforscott · 02-29-2004, 06:15 PM

Yeah, I know what you mean. I will have to give them a listen as well.

JenRN · 02-29-2004, 06:16 PM

I am going to see them in New Darby Pa in April with a "guy"!

I have listened to some of thier stuff it is alright, but not my total cup of tea.

Dogstar · 02-29-2004, 06:24 PM

Well, have a nice time, my friend!

...Hey, it's live music, right? Unless it's some genre I really despise, I can make the best of it...I'm sure you will, too, Jen

Interesting. I hope you have fun, Jen. Sounds like a good time. Do you have any idea who will be with them? I may be able to give you some insight on some of the openers, if I have heard of them.

devils_here · 02-29-2004, 07:34 PM

I've heard 2 of their albums and really enjoyed them.

My favorite is Images and Words. I love it. It's kinda progressive rock. Give it a listen and tell me what you think.

I've seen them once live about 7 years ago and they put on a pretty good show. I hope you have fun at the show in April.

I've got a couple of their CD's (Scenes from a Memory and Train of Thought). If you like them, check out Liquid Tension Experiment. I'm not particuarly fond of DT's lyrics, and LTE's music is even better, but without lyrics. I've got both of LTE's CDs, if you want some o' that.

JenRN · 03-22-2004, 08:47 AM

I have incredible Orchestra seats for this show. Can't wait. I LOVE their latest CD, heavier than the others. I am craving live music!

I hope you have you have a blast Jen
