DT12 v. WDAWAIISOIT8V&CSTOE pt. XII

[Kotowboy]

I really want a making of the album DVD for once that doesn't have MP leering into the camera, interrupting people, and making awful

jokes or juvenile sounds every 5 seconds.

Something like the TSCO Documentary in feel but 90 mins of them in the studio working on DT 12.




I remember reading that the DVD for Luna Park has a Documentary on - sort of a 'sequel' to TSCO. Looking forward to that !

[MoraWintersoul]

I just wish we could see the real live compositional dynamics within the band. A sort of candid camera documentary of the shaping of one song would probably been the coolest and most interesting thing for me (besides the actual song) 

Something like the ToT docu-thing

You'll miss them, it's ok to admit it.

[Kotowboy]

Not in a 1,000,000 years

I wish we'd for once have a thread where you wouldn't bring MP up in derogatory and slandering fashion, and not just that, but when the context doesn't require bringing him up since we're talking about the future and not the past

Looks like Mike Portnoy can be added alongside Kevin Moore and The Count of Tuscany.

[Kotowboy]

It was actually Portnoy who was annoying Petrucci on a nice visit to a wine shop in Tuscany.

The title is a typo.

Some things are apparently too much to ask for.

So... this is gonna be their... 12th album, right? And Mike Mangini is gonna be involved with... the writing, right?















And Jay Beckenstein is from... Spyro Gyra, right?

You're John Petrucci, you of all people should know

(thread cross-polination ftw)

I think you mean cross-pollution. XD

[MoraWintersoul]

I think you mean cross-pollution. XD

Two things:
1) I dreamed of listening to the album (already out) and liking it quite a bit. I NEED HELP WITH MY SUBCONSCIOUSNESS. It had two twenty minute-songs, two fifteen minute songs and one five minute song. And they were walking outside my building shooting a music video or something. It was fabulous.

2) How cool would it be if they went with something less straightforward and stereotypical for the album title? Don't get me wrong, I believe them ADTOE is about what they said it was about, but naming an album like that after MP's departure and then explaining it's not about MP to a fanbase which is not at all prone to overanalyzing (and casual fans  which were not likely to read the interviews at all) could have been easily avoided with another title.
All I'm saying is, if they wanna name the album Genie In A Bottle...

[wasteland]

This is amazing! I would love DT to visit my dreams more often, It happens quite rarely nowadays

I really wish they'd gone with the original album title, since it would have been a return to the naming convention of their first 3 albums.

I once had a dream when Rudess was shooting a video outside. I said hi and I don't remember the rest. DAMNIT.

Mike Mangini: Like a lot of you who live in the U.S. NE, freezing with not heat for way too long along with the post blizzard shoveling & work totally destroyed me. Recording scratch tracks for a wicked DT song after two days of that and traveling was quite ... umm ... interesting If you've had nights where you barely had the strength to brush your teeth, then you know what I felt like. The show must go on.

[wasteland]

A wicked song.




Oh, and he's lovely, as always 

[wasteland]

[Onno]

Yeah, saw that on FB yesterday. Epic 

[wasteland]

I don't get all the hype. It's just a few simple operations

Is 192 BPM very high?

[BlobVanDam]

Is that a polyrhythm or something?

[philmcson]

Depends on what you're playing! I personally can play double bass kvadruplets at 150 for 10 seconds, then my feet start falling off.... so this would be amazing. But who knows what rhythm he is playing......

[MoraWintersoul]

I wonder is that Jordan there.

[wasteland]

Gah! They blurred it out on purpose!

And yes, it's Jordan. When I see a bald human being that close to a couple of keyboards in the DT studio there's only one possible explaination

[BlobVanDam]

BUT WHY DID THEY BLUR HIM?!

Because whoever posts the pics has a good sense of humour

Don't they realize what they're doing to us?!


Of course, they know exactly what they're doing to us. Well played, DT. Well played.

[JayOctavarium]

WHEN WILL THEY STOP TEASING US AND TELL US WHO THE NEW DRUMMER IS???

[ZirconBlue]

Gah! They blurred it out on purpose!

His face is now a registered trademark.

It might be 192 on the click but might be played at half that or at 6/8 time or something.

[BlackInk]

Yeah 192 bpm doesn't really tell us anything.

[Big Hath]

Yeah 192 bpm doesn't really tell us anything.

disagree

it tells us everything

[MoraWintersoul]

New pic!

Good job posting this 11 seconds before me
