2 things I just noticed about ADTOE
« on: October 05, 2011, 02:30:21 PM »
1st thing: There is only 1 continnuum solo from JR which is in BITS......this surprised me, since he seems to have a fondness of it recently.

2nd thing: When I met JP after the show in Chicago on 10/2 he pointed out that on the center page of the booklet where the band photo is, the unicyclist is outside the window. When I said I didn't notice that, he jokingly said "C'mon man, step it up! That guy was actually outside when we took that photo"  :lol :rollin

Well, he seems to be more fond of Morphwiz as of late.

That shouldn't be surprising. From memory, the last 3 albums only have one continuum solo each too, with only the odd background continuum sound here and there (like the outro of ANTR, the chorus of TSF etc). And I think he probably has too many other toys to focus on any individual one. :lol

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

The clown uni-cyclist is a nugget indeed... It is no coincidence that Hugh Syme chose that exact stock photo for the album cover...
there are 16 spokes on the unicycle wheel... and 10 folds in the clown's pants.

16/2 = 8
10/2 = 5


5 and 8



Oh, and the plane wing,

There are 10 lines on it, 10/2 = 5
and 8 little studs coming off the top, and left most side..

5 and 8...

Again, this is no coincidence.

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 am learning stuff in this thread.

I can't believe I missed the clown out the window, it's so obvious now, and the 5/8 stuff I never would have gotten.  Sweet.

Just noticed something else, guys.

There are 15 lines on the rope to the before (to the left) the tear in it,

And, there are exactly 400 lines in the rope after (to the right) the tear.

15/3 = 5

400/50 = 8

5 and 8












Okay, I am going to just come and out say that I am bored and loosely basing this information on some truth in the album cover..


Kind of....
See for yourself, folks!

While we're on the subject...

6DOIT has two discs of music

Disc 1 = 5 tracks
Disc 2 = 8 Tracks.

Jus Sayin.

I've seen that group picture several times and never noticed the uni-cyclist  :o

The same picture appears on an issue of the German magazine Rockhard and the clown isn't there.
