Is this acceptable ???

Is it acceptable in 2014 to publish an article in a European newspaper praising DT, but displaying a photo for Adrenaline Mob ???:facepalm: :huh:

Ans not only you put a photo for band that does not exist anymore under the displayed line-up, you also add in BOLD under it: "STARTING OVER: Each album is a new opportunity for Dream Theater"  :lol :lol :lol !!!

And you publish your article on February 5, 2014 (10 days after the grammy) while mentioning that "Dream Theater is nominated for the Grammy Award for the second time already. This time, the Dream Theater is competing with such bands as Anthrax, Black Sabbath, Killswitch Engage, and Volbeat" !!!!

Ok, enough, I need to relax  :biggrin:

I seriously hope that it's the Lithuanians and not my fellow countrymen who have come up with such a high-quality article :facepalm:

I work for a newspaper on Long Island, NY.  A couple years ago they posted something online about the top 100 songs every Long Islander should know and they included "Pull Me Under," but they included a G3 photo.  They changed it when i told them, but I guess it happens once in a while -- people getting side-project photos confused with DT.  It must be sent to them with a confusing caption.
