I'm working that night, someone please be sure to record it so I can see their reactions just in case they win.

While i don't really care for the Grammys, i hope DT will get it, and i can't wait to see MP's reaction if this actually happens. :hat


Oh, you never know.  He might take the high road and say it's just an indication they sold out after he left.

I'll be the lone guy outside Staples Center on Sunday with a Dream Theater sign.  Of course, other DTers are welcome to join in the show of support.


I had the opportunity to go to the Grammy's this year... but turned it down before I heard of the nomination.

Do you guys know if they air the Hard Rock/Metal category? Like if someone actually goes up to the podium and call out a winner?

I remember once I was watching the Grammies, I think the commentator just sort of announced the winner for the Hard Rock/Metal category in like 5-10 seconds. I could be wrong though.

I was wondering the same thing.  My assumption was the award would not air until I saw people here talking about it.

No whats going to happen is once DT wins (They will, you'll see!!1/) they will all be asked to all come up on stage. After the 10 minute standing ovation they will unveil a secret stage with all their instruments and and they will play On The Backs of Angels live for the 100+ million people watching. Afterwards, there will be another 10 minute standing ovation with a demand of an encore. This is where a full symphony will be unveiled next and they will play A Change of Seasons in its entirety.

Remember Bill and Teds excellent adventure? Remember how they were considered heros in the future? It's gonna be just like that. You'll see.

I hope the band isn't actually going, it probably won't be announced on TV. There are a lot of awards.

Why do you hope they aren't going?  It's probably a cool experience even if you don't like the awards.  Besides, this is their business.  Perhaps going isn't that beneficial to them, but not going certainly isn't.  They might get some exposure by going..

It definitely won't be presented during the show. Iron Maiden won a year or two ago, and they got a 15 second mention while coming back from a commercial.

It couldn't hurt for them to attend anyway. In any industry, mingling like that is basically never a bad thing, and can form some great connections.

Exactly what was said in the two previous posts.  They have already made arrangements in their tour schedule to be there.  Of course they will go.

obscure

oh bloody hell yes they will... they are far more excited about this than we are.. non-surprisingly....

Yeah they probably just wanna go to... well "be there" and I would do the same.

^A few months ago, I would've said this was an obvious Photoshop.

Seeing that pic, all of a sudden I want them to win really badly.
\o\ lol /o/

Also, Mangini must be on cloud 9 now. Joining the band (his first actual band), successful album and tour, and now at the Grammies? Even if they don't win, that must feel fascinating to him.

What stream could I see DT get their award on?

too bad, mastodon or foo fighter will win the award, even if JP is a member of NARAS...

I got a similar tingle.

Well, I guess that could be testicular cancer, but at 20, that's unlikely at this point in time.

Just watch the stream. It isn't so bad.

I plan on watching it on CBS until this award is presented or the winner of it is announced (since I hear it's likely not to be presented while CBS is airing the broadcast).

It's streaming live on grammy.com/live where you can see if they win or not.  Be sure to click the pre-telecast stream, which will finish just before going live on CBS.

Yea, just noticed that. At least I don't have to sit through the actual telecast now.  :)
