The official "Rename Dream Theater" thread (merged)
« on: February 26, 2011, 04:12:00 PM »
Just to kill some time before the new drummer's announcement.  ;)

Imagine a legal battle for the name "Dream Theater", and the band lose  :omg: (none of us want that of course).

What name should they choose?

I go with "TRIAL OF TEARS"

For some reason this coupled with your avatar is a brilliant combination. :lol

And then the battle continues as MP decides the song names are his too.

I think that MP said in an interview with Eddie Trunk that no one owned the name, they just never had a reason for that

Dream Theater 1.0 - Chris Collins era
Dream Theater 2.0 - Charlie Dominici era
Dream Theater 3.0 - Kevin Moore era
Dream Theater 4.0 - Derek Sherinian era
Dream Theater 5.0 - traditional lineup
Dream Theater 6.0 - new drummer era

So...Dream Theater 6.0.   :biggrin:

Prophets, apostles, preachers, martyrs, pioneers of knowledge, inspired artists in every art, ordinary men and the Man-God, all pay tribute to loneliness, to the life of silence, to the night." - A.

I just don't understand what they were trying to achieve with any part of the song, either individually or as a whole. You know what? It's the Platypus of Dream Theater songs. That bill doesn't go with that tail, or that strange little furry body, or those webbed feet, and oh god why does it have venomous spurs!? And then you find out it lays eggs too. The difference is that the Platypus is somehow functional despite being a crazy mishmash or leftover animal pieces

I consider DT to start with WDADU, so by that logic it's 5.0. But either one works. :)
