Quote from: Caleb on July 16, 2024, 02:12:16 AMOne final request is for JR to ditch his Geoshred app and go back to the full size continuum, probably not going to happen though

I think he should have both!!! ✨ Come on, it's the 40th anniversary, why not drag out ALL the toys! 😁

True I guess, bearing that thought in mind, they should play Solitary Shell so JP can get his old double-neck out again :metal

I recall JP using his doubleneck on Octavarium on score, so maybe fingers crossed........

MP:  I can tell you one billion percent we will not be playing "You Not Me."
Me:  So you're saying there's a chance?  :lol

Anyway, maybe one day . . .

You Not Me, never. But I could still see him bringing back You *or* Me. IIRC, even in the FII demos liner notes, he hinted at the idea. Granted, that was before the split, but I can still see that being something he might resurrect, especially for an anniversary tour.
Quote from: BlobVanDam on November 13, 2015, 07:37:14 PMAs a basic rule, if you hate it, you must solely blame Portnoy. If it's good, then you must downplay MP's contribution to the band as not being important anyway, or claim he's just lying. It's the DTF way.

It would be great if they did play You Not Me, but also adding in things that were cut from You Or Me, like the keyboard section. I enjoy the chorus of You Not Me better than You or Me though.

A good blend of both would be a neat thing for them to do. Sort of like what they did with Take Away My Pain on Once In A Livetime.

In the past 2 days Jordan posted a clip of him practicing Octavarium on his Instagram. It's happening.

You Not Me with the extended guitar solo and the keyboard middle section of You Or Me would be a really cool song! I've always thought that. Of course, probably this will never happen, but still. :tup

This is incredible news. But spoilers... ugh. Wish the band wouldn't do that.

To be fair, this doesn't mean anything for the setlists for the upcoming tour. I would never take this as any indication of what's to come.

That said, I would obviously love to see it again, it's such a great live song

Octavarium returning to live sets is incredible. Now imagine if A Change of Seasons is added in
Half of my posts are satire; the other half are serious. If you can't tell which half you're looking at, it's probably the former. I enjoy busting chops amongst likeminded fellows. Where better to feel at home than among the fans of the world's most fun band? :)

It is not a confirmation at all but he is practicing Octavarium, a song that fans have repeatedly asked to be back in the setlist. MP is back handling the setlists and he is in touch with what the fans want. It just makes sense that this is going to happen.

Now, I have noted in my disclaimer that I cannot predict the future. I still can't but I would bet money on this happening either on the 40th Anniversary or the new album tour.

I'll make a bold prediction here. Since MP is back they will not have ANY supporting acts on the tour and play for over 3 hours.

Quote from: wkiml on June 08, 2012, 09:06:35 AMwould have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Quote from: Stadler on February 08, 2025, 12:49:43 PMI wouldn't argue this.

My wishlist of songs for the upcoming MP reunion tour:

- The Glass Prison (perhaps even as part of the entire AA suite)
- Hell's Kitchen + Lines in the Sand or Trial of Tears
- In the Presence of Enemies (pt. 1 + 2) or The Ministry of Lost Souls
- Octavarium
- Surrender to Reason or The Bigger Picture
- Space Dye Vest (probably a long shot with MP back in the group)
- Status Seeker or Light Fuse and Get Away (also very unlikely)

- You Not Me  ;D


- I'm also cool with Pull Me Under and The Spirit Carries On being retired (for now)

I doubt it, but I wouldn't mind it either. If anything I hope they mix it up and open shows with PMU, get it out of the way!

Video already posted in another thread. Anyway, it seems like TBOT will be played "soon" and YNM... maybe never?! ;D

Lines In the Sand
Status Seeker
To Live Forever

Quote from: Caleb on July 23, 2024, 03:54:08 AMHow come everyone wants You Not Me????!


Because it never gets played. And a lot of us think it's not as bad as its reputation suggests.
