Upon seeing this thread, I left my room pumping my fists in the air trumphantly.
"Yes! Yes! Sound the trumpets of the angels! New Dream Theater song, tomorrow!"
My mom gave me the "That's good!" mom thing. She got that I was excited but couldn't relate to it.
My brother, who's a Nirvana fan, gave me an annoyed scowl.
Thomas "Hey man, why do I care?"
Me "Because Dream Theater's releasing a new song."
Thomas "At least your band releases new material still."
Me "Yeah, well, what can I say? John Petrucci hasn't committed suicide yet."
And then I danced away knowing I won the conversation.
