Dream Theater Word Association Game!

[adamack]

How it works:

This is based off of "before and after" style clues on Jeopardy. The correct answer will be a combination of two separate things which combine to form one phrase or idea. At least one of the ideas has to be DT-related.

Example: This Dream Theater front man developed his own take on this soft, cow's milk dairy product.

Answer: What is James LaBrie cheese? (The answer is a combination of James LaBrie, and Brie cheese.)

Another example: This boxer from PunchOut listened to a SDOIT song as he constructed his new jailhouse.

Answer: What is The Glass Joe Prison?


I'll start if off with these:

$200 - This former DT keyboardist teamed up with the band Extreme to make a remix to their hit ballad.

$400 - Judas Priest teamed up with DT on their latest DVD, where he was unreasonably searched by the police.

$600 - Anthony Kiedis performed a cover of DT's most popular song to a homeless man beneath an overpass.

$800 - Dream Theater created a new medley, which combines a song from ToT and a song from Octavarium.

$1000 - Current DT drummer's guilty pleasure is a pop song from singer Christina Aguilera.


Good luck, and make your own for others to answer too!

Great work!!!

However, the $600 question is a bit off. Read the question a bit more carefully, and I'm sure you'll get it.

Bingo!

Kudos. Wasn't sure anybody would get it.

Hahaha. Nerdy questions, I get.

My turn.

Emily Bronte writes about writer's block. John Petrucci approves.

What is Light Fuse and Get Away from that horrible movie The Last Action Hero?

[BlobVanDam]

Only one of the two things listed in your post is horrible, and it's not the Arnie movie.

But no. Try again.

Extremely cool idea for a thread.

Very close and while I suppose that answer fits the question, it's not entirely what I had in mind.

Bingo!

Kudos. Wasn't sure anybody would get it.

Wow, I must say that correctly answering this one was extremely impressive. I was thinking about what it could be for so long, to no avail. Great work!

[adamack]

Okay, I have to say, awesome as this idea is... It's damn hard!!!

Yes it can definitely be tough!

The fun thing about it is that it is just as fun to come up with the questions as it is to answer them.

Keep em coming everyone, I'm thinking of some more now.

[Sycsa]

I got a cryptic one: A snippet of DT lyrics, which they lifted from Rush, sung by Greg Lake.

and another: Butters Stotch's favorite DT album, alternatively, since it's basically the same idea involving a different album, but comes out nicer: Butters' favorite live album to listen to while on the road

[adamack]

Steve Vai, guitar. Mike Mangini, drums. John Myung, lyrics.

Is it Tender Surrender To Reason??

I certainly hope it is, because I've been killing myself trying to figure this out!

[Vahvahenki]

Butters Stotch's favorite DT album, alternatively, since it's basically the same idea involving a different album, but comes out nicer: Butters' favorite live album to listen to while on the road

Let's take a guess: Professor Chaos in Motion?

Here's some more:

$200 - An NFL team gets together to watch a popular movie about football, and they watch it "over and over, scene by scene".

$400 - A fan decides to watch DT's most lowly-received DVD, and the camera movement on screen causes the fan to throw up.

$600 - While listening to one of DT's most well-received albums (on DTF, at least), a fan becomes dizzy, and has discharge from a certain part of the body.

$800 - During the live set of DT's most metal album, they decide to perform an older song about schizophrenia. (Hint: One is an album, one is a lyric)

$1000 - DT performs their hardest (most metal) song from Octavarium, and the fans oddly begin dancing like John Travolta.

DAILY DOUBLE: Mike Mangini has been acting very feminine lately...
