Hello People we just recently covered Constant Motion on a gig live.The crowd appreciated our performance alot so we thought it would be great to get some opinion from more devoted fans of Dream Theater and this forum seems the best place.YES! the vocals are not good and the tempo is a little too fast-Thats simply because of the cold we couldnt stand up there for too long,it was freezng,so it all happened unintentionally.The band name is Shapataz,we are from Pakistan and we are all college students.

PLEASE GIVE IN YOUR HONEST OPINION AND CHECK OUT MORE COVERS ON OUR FACEBOOK PAGE! WE SERIOUSLY NEED SOME SUPPORT FROM IINTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY. THANK YOU!

A different cover from what we're used to seeing around here. Pretty cool stuff nevertheless, I just wish the sound quality was better. Hope to see some more videos, and maybe this time around the singer will know the lyrics.  ;D  Keep up with the good work.

Shapataz

Very good stuff. Except for the singer. No offense to him, he can do better than that... maybe it was just a bad gig for him

Shapataz
