It looks like they have some shows in July and will probably have more afterwards.

I think September or the fall might be a little too soon to have DT13 released... Unless they write the album in 3 weeks.

Train of thought ?

The songs for Awake were also written in a span of roughly 3 weeks.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Yeah, these guys are capable of writing and recording pretty quickly.  I don't think that is an issue at all.

Remember, we're talking about Dream Theater, not Tool.

Well, for one, the tweet that JP "sent" isn't on his page. So there's that.

hahahah
A part of me wants to believe this so much because I would be glad to see good vibes between DT and MP after all this time, but there's also a part of me thinking "HA! good one"
Probably the second part of me is right. IDK

I'm happy if the part of they talking again is true; but Metropolis pt. 3?
I don't really think so.

I definitely saw Petrucci's tweet. Looked like it was directed to someone, but without the @ name.

The tweet could mean anything, there are hundreds of musicians at NAMM that he knows.

The rest is horseshit.

Did we? The Metropolis story has been told. What is this obsession that some fans have with this idea? It comes up with every album cycle. Let it go.

No kidding.

I mean, if they choose to do it, I hope they do a good job with it.  But I see no reason to do it.

Metropolis is an used idea. Yes for concept album but please, no Metropolis pt.3.

JP's tweet sounds like he accidentally tweeted a personal message. Maybe some of his friends or relatives, nothing bigger. Don't overact folks! JP doesn't tweet that kind of messages usually.

I haven't truly loved a DT album since Octavarium, but of course I am excited about the new one. Hopefully they'll get the mix/sound right this time, the drums on DT12 really bugged me.

How about A Count Of Tuscany II: Back To The Villa!
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

"John Petrucci wants to meet with another musician?! OMG, it must be Mike Portnoy! But wait, why would he want to do that...oh *slaps self in face* to produce Metropolis Part 3: Deleted Scenes From a Memory! How could I have missed that?!"
Yeah, I have no idea what the cakeless person in that analogy is meant to be eating. If he's got some sort of cake substitute, it should really have been worked into the narrative at some point. As it stands, the options are:

  • Hoard a cake just to stare blankly into its doughy edifice.
  • Make futile chewing motions with your mouth while starving to death.

Little known fact, WAV files can be compressed. By the definition of the Microsoft standard, that is.

The songs for Awake were also written in a span of roughly 3 weeks.
Well, some of the stuff was showing up during the I&W live shows.
