5/8 is almost like a brother site to DTF. when the original forums asploded it spit a couple times and went through many incarnations until all that remained was DTF.org and 5/8. 5/8, however, is not a Dream Theater forum. It's merely a continuation of that community that moved there.

I don't remember multiple splits?  From what I recall I logged on the next day and there was 5/8 and DTF.  And I believe the most generally the best way to describe the split was that the people who became 5/8 weren't as crazy about DT and so wanted to be a general music forum, and we were the guys who still like DT.

What kind of forum is that? When I first heard about it I figured it was a DT forum but apparently nobody likes DT over there. :S



***WARNING*** That thread contains MASSIVE SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then why post it?

I was showing him what I was talking about. That link brings you to the part of the thread where they criticized Bosk's actions in not allowing ADTOE discussion until the 12th.

Has JP lightened up on the weight lifting thing? He looks like he's slimmed down a bit, and now him and JLB look about the same, muscles-wise

Mangini fits so well.  :hefdaddy
Jesus Christ himself* comes down amidst a choir of 2 billion angels singing Handel's Hallelujah chorus. As KrotchRaut shred randomly on guitars made of dragon bones using picks made from God's kidney stones, Jesus heals a blind woman who promptly gives birth onstage to a creation of pure light.

*Yes, Jesus Christ himself. Nothing less will do.

I'm not sure if this impressive or not, since Japan's music market is pretty weird. But hey, it's still cool.

Most of Octavarium is written in 5/8, IIRC... Octavarium was DT's eighth album and it has eight songs... The title track has 5 sections... The album was released in 2005...


Pretty sure there are more nuggets about Octavarium related to 5 and 8, but I can't recall any at the moment.

Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

I can play every song on there and 5/8 isn't that prominent.

It's mostly Panic Attack, isn't it? (song 5/8, in 5/8. Get it?)

Yep. I think the only party in the MP/DT situation that hasn't moved on is DTF.

That is CD/DVD version. It's in very nice digipack, and what is interesting booklet is sticked to the case :) You cannot take it out of digipack which is interesting idea :) Artwork is really nice :) Regular version comes with a normal jewel case.
