hi, my name is alex and ive been a dream theater fan for five years now... Im the reason JayOctavarium knows about this band, and now the bastard convinced me to become a part of this site. So here I am, boring you to tears with this hopelessly redundant introduction. I like going to the movies, taking long walks on the beach, and listening to Kenny G... He did play the sax on Another Day, right?  :facepalm: At any rate, i will enjoy discussing with you all.



 


ALEX!!! finally. oh and didint Lars Ulrich appear on Lines in the Sand? :neverusethis:
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

It's an inside joke. So is part of my signature. Al and I pranked called a local band, and they litterally went with the call for like 2 hours.

A couple quotes from that call:

"OMG! JETSTREAM!!! I F*CKING LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!... But you f*cking suck.."
"wait, your last name is Munk? as in Monkey? as in Porch Monkey?? YOU F*CKING RACIST!!!!!"


haha wow we are screwed up

Hi, this is my n00b-introduction post:

My name is Mads and I come from Norway, but live and study in Santa Barbara, CA at the moment (the Halloween celebration here in Isla Vista is pretty sick, btw...).
I listen mostly to progressive rock and progressive metal, but also a lot of other stuff like classic rock, death metal and some electronica (my "everything-playlist" in spotify: https://open.spotify.com/user/kartmaze/playlist/6hXgFl93xRr68duf7MKm0K). Dream Theater has been my favourite band for 5 years or so.
I've played guitar for 7 years and I play guitar in a band back in Norway (MySpace-link in my sig), where I do most of the composing and lyrics-writing. And I'm a 2006 Norwegian gokart champion.

Hey gaiz! I've been visiting this site for like the last month, every day, hoping for updates on the status with DTs drummer haha, so I decided I may as well make an account. I live in Australia, Melbourne, currently studying n working part time (sigh!). I pretty much have grown up playing (or at least attempting to) play guitar along with Dream Theater. Although I'm not the DT fan I used to be, I still enjoy keeping up with the goss, latest material and, from time to time, going back and listening to some classic DT. I am heavily into Animals as Leaders, trying to learn a bunch of their tunes on guitar, but really enjoy listening to other extreme/technical/post metal bands such as Periphery, Isis, Pelican, Maudlin (leaving/bath!), Ulver, Godspeed you!... etc. Hope to see y'all around :D

Sup!  Stick around long enough and you might get your own artist smiley.   :tup
"All great works are prepared in the desert, including the redemption of the world. The precursors, the followers, the Master Himself, all obeyed or have to obey one and the same law. 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.

Takk! :)

Jepp, stemmer! Tilbake i Trondheim etter nyttår, da... 30 grader og skyfritt her, så det er jo én grunn...  ;)

Welcome from a fellow non-native Trondheimian. :)
Thanks! :)

Yup, correct! Back in Trondheim after new year, though... 30 degrees and cloud free here, so that's one reason... ;)

Consider it revenge to all the people talking in spanish now and then :P

30 degrees... I could live with that! You're doing the right thing staying there for a while. Rain and the typical ice cold wind is the thing here right now :(

In other words, classic spring-summer-fall Trondheim weather, then. In the winther, of course, there's just a lot of snow...  :P I'm probably going to get a 'cold shock' when I get back... But it's the best place to be, nonetheless!  :biggrin:

Not just a lot of snow! It melts, too! And becomes shiny ice you can fall on! And then more snow comes on top of that ice! Woo! But still I love this city :heart
But yeah, very typical. Enjoy your warm weather while you can!
