Famous DT Fans

[DreamerTV]

Another case in Italy.

I know it might be hard to believe, especially for those who know these girls, but they said in an interview some years ago that they like Dream Theater. I'm talking about Paola e Chiara, an italian pop music female duo. I guess they're little known outside our borders, but in Italy they're quite famous. Here's a pic and a video:

No way!!!

Davide Moro, captain of Empoli Football Club, a team which plays in Serie B (second division) but also played some seasons in Serie A (our major league) is a really big DT fan. He also happens to be a really good singer, and of course he sings in a DT cover band! (here is their version of A Change of Seasons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aokYRChVBYc)  He uses to show his love for the guys wearing in every game his own custom captain armband!



I know, i know, wrong font...

hi there I'm a new member but I know a tennis player from Switzerland who is a DT fan a his best buddy is Roger Federer. they play together in the Davis Cup.his name is Marco Chiudinelli. that's his official website :https://www.marcochiudinelli.com/aboutme.html
he must be a real fan he's linked DT on his website

[wasteland]

Whoa, that's awesome! He must have tried to get my favourite Swiss into DT as well, then 

[Sketchy]

Mikael Akerfeldt from Opeth said he's a big fan of them on that series of interviews with him and MP.

I always kind of doubt if he is or if he was just saying that for the interview.

That's the feeling I get too...

I think he is a fan, although he hasn't followed them actively in the recent years. This is what he said in 2003 (I know it's an old post, but at least it proves that he HAS been a DT fan): https://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/opeth-archived/64552-mike-portnoy-likes-opeth-2.html#post1091898

However, no I don't dislike Dream Theater. But I'm not so fanatic about them as I used to be.
 
I have all their albums and "Awake" and "Falling into infinity" + "Scenes" are all great albums. 2nd Cd too, but the cheese factor on that album is incredibly high with all the cheesy saxophone "Beach" sounding solos...still a good album.
 The first I don't like so much because of the singer + the latest I thought was kinda un-happening. I've seen them live on every tour since "Awake" and that gig I can say was marvellous! Also on the "Scenes" tour they did a massive show in Stockholm. But last time I saw them they seemed tired and "old" almost. Especially in comparison with Pain of salvation which did a great gig. (I like them MUCH better live than on record)
 I even left before the DT show had ended.
 
No, I am not as big a fan as I used to be but I'd guess I'm still a "fan", and I love John's guitar playing!
 I'd like to see DT elaborate more with the sounds the got on "Falling"...I like the more mellow "Peruvian skies" type of songs.

Still, he did do this back in 2009. It may have been just a favor he did for MP, but I don't think he would have done it if he hadn't liked the music.

heh. Good gig that. My mother was really metalling out to that song.

I remember I went to a Twins game a couple years ago, and one of the players had 'Another Day' as his theme song... can't be too famous since I can't remember who he was at all 

[purzel]

who knows maybe Roger Federer is listening to DT too:)

Agreed, I bet when she poops, it comes out wrapped in cellophane with a pretty pink bow around it.

Mike Piazza, former catcher for the Mets, is a DT fan IIRC.

Thanks. Used to post over at the MP board; don't know why I didn't just migrate here before now.

Guess I was getting excited about the new album.

This guy

And this guy

[Dr. DTVT]

There is a prominent chemistry professor who has been spotted with Dream Theater at multiple cities on the East Coast.

[wasteland]

And this guy

Well, that's not really a surprise. He used the opening chords of ACOS to close his acoustic guitar set, opening for Dream Theater

yea he did. Fantastic opener. Too bad I missed most of his set because I won't up in the lobby of the theater chatting with Charlie Dominici.
