Dream Theater missed an opportunity....
« on: August 08, 2015, 05:14:29 AM »
Had SFAM been set just one year earlier, it would have taken place in the same year that the film Metropolis was released. But no, they had to choose 1928 instead. If we had Overture 1927, this all could have been fixed. Missed nugget.

Victoria watches Metropolis and thoughtfully smiles? Nope.

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

It should have been set in 1916, to reflect the time signature in the last section of Home.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Damn!
I hope that the new album brings back the "nugget factor" to DT's music.
I think the last nugget they showed was the end of AA Saga.

Theres a reprise of FFH in BAI if that counts. I wish they'd do that stuff more too, one of the coolest things about DT IMO.
