It's mostly about knowing what to listen for. It's also easier to tell if the guitar is the only instrument being played. Otherwise, it can be tough.

There was also a video series released shortly after the album where JP shows how to play OTBOA. He specifies how he wrote and recorded it as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqonCm2Jmko

But seriously, back to the actual recording process. From all these pictures, I'm really feeling the unity of their five-day sessions.

So both us and Jordan are apparently enjoying making WDADU puns today, because this was captioned "the keyboard hand":

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #1102 on:** March 18, 2013, 07:30:13 AM »

I wouldn't have taken "the keyboard hand" as anything but a reference to a hand playing the keyboard.

You're thinking of Petrucci. Rudess' hands are only used for casting spells.

how amateurish of me to make that mistake.

Blob should be trusted on these matters. His life energy was partially drained by the wizard in order to create the magical animation employed in the 2009/2010 keyboard solo. I think he's definitely in the knows.

I wouldn't mind if they brought TKH back to the setlist, with or without Another Hand!

If they continue playing WDADU songs (which is something I keep my fingers crossed for), they may actually do that

wasteland · « **Reply #1111 on:** March 18, 2013, 07:55:48 AM »

Yes, I want TKH to be played live, granted that they don't drop the 96 solos and that the song doesn't ruin James's vocal balance.

I really dig Another Hand, but if they decide to play TKH, they could use The Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy for the intro for all I care

(which would actually be really awesome now that I think of it)

I just noticed that there's no TKH thread in the index of albums and songs. Should we start one? We should try to keep it on the first page like the one for Eve to make sure that the potential lurking band members see it
