Come chat with all the other DT fans on Monday
« on: April 30, 2011, 10:39:51 PM »
Okay, here's the deal. I've decided while everyone is super hyped for Dream Theater I'm going to play a full album from Dream Theater on my radio show Monday. This means two things. First, you guys get to vote on which album gets played, and second, you're all invited to come chat about the album while it's being played.

The show's site is www.wpapu.com and it starts at 6pm Eastern on Monday.

I'm throwing my vote behind Scenes From a Memory, because concept albums in full are the way to go.

I had to go with Awake.  As a "go to" album, it isn't picked as often, however it still (kind of) posses the concept album quality.  Plus, there are a ton of great tuns on that album.  It's become one of my favorites as late.

I'll have to make sure and catch the radio show.  I hadn't heard of it till I started frequenting this forum!

SFAM is a good choice. Or Black Clouds and Silver Linings because it flows well, has a good variety, is their most recent, and closes with one of their best.

A tough choice for me. "Images And Words" has a special place in my heart and I would love to hear some of it played on the radio again. However, I voted "Scenes..." because it's a great concept album that really lends itself to be played in its entirety to be enjoyed as an experience.

Yes it is, but come Monday if it looks to be the album in question I'll load all the tracks into audacity and make it one big file so that won't happen. :)

Why don't you just play one album a week?  Hopefully that will make it in time for the new album.

And I voted SFAM.

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
